I seem to recall they shut at 10 apart from Fri and sat. Sun was 2pm

Reduced?! They should be extended - it'd be nice if there was somewhere open until 1am in Lewes on a Friday and Saturday

Ah yes, let�s go back to the different �summer� and �winter� closing times! I remember the miserable old boy that used to run the Brewers telling me that his favourite time was the first day of the winter closing hours, as he loved the look of horror and confusion on people�s faces when he called time at 10:30 rather than 11:00!

If the government keep increasing the duty on beer and business rates & the brewery`s keep putting up the rents then its only a matter of time until all the pubs call last orders for good.

What has it got to do with the government when I have a drink? If pubs want to stay open all hours then good luck to them. If you want to stop drinking and go home at 10.30 then that is fine too. Please don't tell me when you want me to stop. I am saddened that so many people are happy to be dictated to in this way.
