About The West Hill Tavern

The West Hill Tavern is an independent, family-friendly pizza pub perched on the hillside at 67 Buckingham Place in Brighton's Seven Dials, just two minutes' walk from Brighton station (BN1 3PQ). Weekends bring a lively mix of live music and DJs, with a broad music policy spanning blues, rock, funk, soul, disco, house, jazz and afrobeat — plus regular open mic nights and live jazz sessions. Alongside the music it serves classic pizzas Tuesday to Saturday evenings, a Saturday bottomless 'Let's Get Pizza'd' brunch and a well-regarded Sunday roast. A warm, eclectic neighbourhood room that welcomes both originals and covers.
