Off the back of a post in the 'Parenting in Pubs' thread
The three that come to mind,
As a 13 year old, you could get served in the 'other' pavilion at Hove dogs. What is now and has been for some years, Alliance and Leicester.
Similar age 'The Cliftonville' outside Hove Station. 'Pint of Lager and Lime, Honestly I'm 18 mister'
And the first nightclub I ever got into, Sherry's a few weeks after my 14th Birthday. My mates, who were older, used the line 'He's Jimmy Clitheroe's younger brother' to get me in. There was a fight, someone went over the balcony and I remember the pile of rifled handbags in the corner of the Gents. I was so impressed
(Obviously this is an old gits thread, for those long, long before ID was invented)

), but old Doris in the London Inn wouldn’t have any of it - still used to go in there though because she had the best fruit machine and pool table. There was also a Working Men’s Club that more or less stuck to the rules but sometimes ‘missed’ one of the guys buying a pint for a lad (particularly at darts matches as I started playing when I was 16). Only one of the pubs is still open now sadly but the club is still going strong.
