Cleo

Well behaved, on a lead, and I'm both. Three bars, so I'll find the warm one.

Bonnie

Three bars and a garden by the Amex, where the football lives. I'd like to say hello to some of the fans.

The pawrents

A heritage three-bar pub at Falmer with a real fire and a garden. Well behaved dogs on a lead are welcome. On Albion match days the car park isn't available, and it's closed Mondays except match days. Both street entrances have steps; phone ahead for the step-free way in.
