At a glance
The Argyle Arms is a traditional backstreet pub on Argyle Road in Brighton, with the relaxed character of a neighbourhood boozer and a welcome for visitors beyond the local community. The setting is informal and sociable, making it suitable for a casual drink, a meal with family or an easygoing catch-up with friends.
Food comes from a smokehouse kitchen focused on Texas-style barbecue. The approach includes local sourcing and a zero-food-waste ethos, with sustainability and quality considered alongside the cooking. The menu gives the pub a clear food identity while retaining the straightforward feel of a traditional local.
The drinks selection covers local cask beer, craft beer and premium draught options, alongside a curated wine list and cocktails prepared by the bar team. That range gives the venue appeal beyond mealtimes, whether the preference is a pint, a glass of wine or a mixed drink.
The Argyle Arms combines its food-led offer with a friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. A local following adds to the neighbourhood feel, while the pub remains open to anyone looking for a relaxed place to eat or drink. The backstreet location keeps the setting low-key rather than formal, and the traditional pub style sits comfortably alongside the smokehouse menu.
Texas barbecue is served as part of the regular weekly food offer from Thursday to Sunday. Table bookings are available, and the pub can also be contacted directly for visit planning. The venue is a practical choice for diners seeking barbecue in a pub setting, families looking for a welcoming meal, and drinkers who value a broad selection of beer, wine and cocktails.
