Horsham Pub or Wine bar????

[Pagey]

Any reccomendations for a good pub or wine bar in or around Horsham?

Looking for somewhere with a good atmosphere but not too lively/loud or chavvie!
I'm not implying that Horsham is full of chavs - I have no idea! I've never been there after dark

I have been tasked by Mrs Page to locate a nice establishment to take one of her new work colleagues (from Holland) and her husband out for a nice relaxing evening.


TIA

The Black Jug, nice bar and very good food

There's also Bar Vin, but I think thats a bit more livelier (quite loud music) although I don't know if they play it every night

Good call on The Black Jug.

What day of the week would this be Pagey?

If you fancy a giggle (and want to look at some young eye candy when the Mrs isnt looking) then, whilst at the chavvy end of the scale, Thurs, Fri and Sat nights, B52s in Piries Place is worth stopping in for a vodka (and is run by my best mate, so gets the vote from me). I was in there with the rugby boys on Saturday night and a very nice (ok, she wasnt THE best) young lady took a fancy to me and proudly showed me she could get 4 fingers down the back of her throat. Reet classy

Pubs in Horsham seem to be very 'day of the week' sensitive, but you'll be safe with the BJ (fnaar) most days of the week. Try their selection of vodkas...takes some drinking (well, the drinking is alright, its the standing up afterwards that seems to be a problem)

Bar Vin is OK as a drinking place, gets too busy Fri/Sat to have a nice meal imo.

Hmmm! I wonder if I could arrange to meet them in Horsham and go to the wrong place

They're only 500 yards apart

The new smoking laws could really be a bonus

Deffo worth a visit sans Mrs Pagey I think

[FUBAR]

You should try a Friday night

[Pagey]

Were are due a (work) lads night out shortly I might just drop this into the suggestion pot
Going to have to be soon though, before the Chrismas Party Season gets underway and getting a Friday night off will be as rare as rocking horse 5h17e

My best mate runs the place

There's a right gobby bastard on the door at the weekend. I may just forget to warn him there's a group of bodyguards coming down one evening :snigger:

Let me know if you do plan on going, I'll drag my sorry arse down there and buy you a pint (of Absinthe )

I like the gobby ones



Hardest part will be getting in as a group


Does he work directly for your mate or for a company??
Horsham not being one of our regular haunts, we can normally swing our way in as a group as there is normally someone who knows one of us
My missus hates it if we go out in Brighton, we get spotted in the queue and waved straight in past all the searches etc. Makes for more drinking time

Are you going to protect us from the ropey ones?

Works for him I think.

If you let me know when, and promise to behave yourselves, I'll speak to my mate. Shouldnt be a problem

Do you know Big Mick, Keith, Jamie etc, ex Honey Club door staff?

Yeah, I suppose if your looking to bonk drunk teenage girls who fall out of the local watering hole then Bar Vin on a Friday night is for you - but take sweeties.

Should you fail in this task then you can always de-stress yourself by just popping across to B52's for a bit of a punch-up but get there early to avoid disappointment.








The Black Jug is favourite.

[FUBAR]

Keep up at the back. He's already done the Black Jug.

I have a feeling Pagey and his mates may be able to look after themselves should a ruckass start (and I'll be the short fat one hiding behind them )
