The venue was lovely and our set up was great! The food was also fresh and delicious! Staff were lovely and friendly and willing to help with whatever we needed.
Our only "negative" was everyone wanted more food! (We are a very hungry bunch!!)

The Beer Garden was very pretty and spacious for 78 staff. The food was delicious. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.
The bar was a little understaffed but they did a wonderful job. There were a lot of cob webs in the display wall?

Absolutely brilliant venue, food and staff!!! Lee was so flexible and helpful and went above and beyond to make sure our engagement was everything we hoped it would be and in such trying times, this was a huge feat. All of our guests loved the vibe of the venue and said the food was delicious and they left feeling full! We would 100% recommend the beer garden at the Brighton Beach Hotel. We can’t fault anything!
No negatives at all
