The Poets Ale and Smokehouse is a modern British community pub in Hove, East Sussex. We are proud to serve our tasty smokehouse menu alongside a great selection of draught beers, ales, wines & more, 7 days a week. We also have a selection of our specials, kids menu and traditional roasts on Sundays.
We are a family & dog friendly pub with a spacious main bar and a cosy snug area complete with our fireplace. We also have a wonderful secret garden out the back and a dedicated function room upstairs for all your special occasions. Throughout the year, we also show a fantastic selection of sports coverage too.
We've also got a brand new pool table upstairs to enjoy a friendly game over a pint or two.
