Craft Beer That Hits Different After a Run
There's nothing quite like that first sip of perfectly crafted beer after pushing your body to its limits. Our rotating selection of independent craft beers is carefully curated from the finest breweries across Sussex and beyond, ensuring every glass tells a story of passion, quality, and authentic brewing tradition.
We're the counter-culture to big-label beer, proudly supporting brewers who stay independent and rooted in their craft.

Our knowledgeable team is always on hand to guide you through our selection, helping you discover new favourites and understanding the stories behind each brew. We believe every sip should be an experience, and after the endorphin rush of completing the Brighton 10k, your taste buds are primed for something truly special.
Our fridges are also stocked with carefully selected independent beers you can take home – perfect for extending the celebration or sharing your discoveries with friends who couldn't make it to the race today.
Refuel With Food That Satisfies
Running 10k works up quite an appetite, and we've got you covered with food options that'll properly refuel your body and soul. Whether you're craving something substantial to replenish those depleted energy stores or lighter bites to share with your running crew, our menu delivers flavours that complement our exceptional beer selection perfectly.
From hearty options that'll satisfy the biggest post-race hunger to lighter dishes that hit the spot without overwhelming, we understand that different runners have different needs. Our kitchen focuses on quality ingredients prepared with care – because after you've given your all on the course, you deserve nothing less than the best.
Street Food Partnerships That Deliver
But here's where things get really exciting – our weekend street food partnerships bring even more variety to your post-race dining experience. Picture this: you're sitting in our cozy taproom with a perfectly poured pint in hand, and just outside our doors, talented street food vendors are serving up everything from authentic international cuisine to modern British classics with a twist.
These collaborations aren't just about convenience – they're about creating a complete experience that celebrates the diversity and creativity of Brighton's food scene. Whether you're in the mood for spicy, comforting, fresh, or indulgent, our street food partners deliver flavours that'll make your post-race meal as memorable as crossing that finish line.
