🌈Happy Pride, everyone! 🍸
We are delighted to have one of our venues located in Kemptown and to join in every celebration and Pride event in Brighton.
Let’s honor those who paved the way by keeping the spirit of activism alive.
So, let’s celebrate this vibrant display of visibility with joy and pride, knowing that every step forward is a victory for us all.
Your bravery and resilience have paved the way for a brighter, more inclusive world and also a big thanks to everyone who has tirelessly fought for the rights and visibility we cherish today.
The word ‘cocktail’ was not in common usage yet in Britain, but what we now think of as cocktails were becoming available as early as the 1850s. So enjoy this beautiful celebration, and swipe left to see a map from 1851 that shows this magical part of Brighton, Kemptown.
Come and celebrate Brighton & Hove Pride at The Plotting Parlour! Both our bars will be open to serve you up refreshing cocktails while you take a breather from the celebrations.
Show confirmation of your reservation to security of the Pride Village Party to get access!

SUNSET BOULEVARDIER ☀️
Introducing our unique twist on the classic Boulevardier cocktail!
Crafted with care and creativity, this drink features Woodford rye whiskey infused with toasted coffee beans, unlocking rich coffee notes that tantalize your taste buds. Paired with the balanced elegance of Pedro Ximenez and Amaro Tonsolini, and finished with the vibrant hue and flavors of Campari, it’s a symphony of tastes.
For that extra touch, a hint of popcorn syrup adds a playful nod to Hollywood glitz. 🌟
Rich coffee notes, creating a sophisticated, multi-tonal experience that appeals to adult tastes.
The term “boulevardier” originally described a man-about-town or socialite, fitting perfectly with the drink’s sophisticated and urbane image Although Our Sunset Boulevardier reference Harry’s New York Bar was a hub for American expatriates during Prohibition.

Our staff are dedicated to friendly and hospitable service with absolutely no pretence, they are there to make your evening enjoyable and memorable.

We are table service only, so you can relax and we will come to you to fulfill your drinking requirements.
We are available for bookings, small and large. However due to the size of the venue weekend bookings are limited in group size. Any group over 4 in size is advised to book ahead at weekends to avoid disappointment and to allow us to provide the best quality drinks and service we can. We do still hold tables back for walk ins though so if you cant get a reservation feel free to swing by and try your luck.
We will do anything we can to accommodate everything from an evening out with friends to office parties & Christmas events either on a table in our main bar or in one of our spectacular private rooms that can accommodate up to 40 people.
