London Unity is long gone mate. It's flats now. The Horse & Groom, a few yards up Islingword Rd, has re-opened as a community pub. The Setting Sun has just closed. And my mate's brewery and pubco has just taken on The Southover, now The Haus on the Hill. The Greys closed recently as well, but there was a community campaign to save it.
Never heard of the Bottom's Rest tbh.
Further into Hove, would recommend The Better Half.
Where do you live mate?
Shame about the Unity, it was my local for years.
Bottom's Rest used to be the "Conquerer" just off the Western Rd.
I live on Portland Road (Portslade end) . The pubs round here have all been gentrified over the past few years, so I rarely venture into Brighton for a night out. Tend to drink in the Deep sea angler's club on the lagoon these days, great selection of cheap ale, fresh seafood and private beach.
