To drink great cocktails: Twisted Lemon
Based in the heart of central Brighton, Twisted Lemon is one the city’s best cocktail bars. Although it is smaller in size compared to other cocktail bars in area, what it lacks in circumference is makes up for in quality.

To try your luck: Grosvenor Casino
If you are looking for an evening which is relaxing but still gives a buzz, a trip to the Grosvenor Casino might be on your cards. Situated opposite the palace pier, the Grosvenor is jam packed with a variety of different card games to try your luck on. If you don’t fancy betting, you can always enjoy a meal in their restaurant, a cocktail at their bar or watch some sports in their entertainment lounge.
A night at the casino can be great fun and a great alternative to clubbing in Brighton. But please remember to gamble sensibly, bet what you can lose without getting yourself in financial difficulty. On a positive note – may the luck be on your side and you win!

To sing your heart out: Lucky Voice
Fancy yourself as the next singing sensation? Then we have just the venue. Lucky Voice is the ultimate karaoke bar, located just off Prince Albert Street in Brighton. You can book into one of their karaoke pods and sing to your hearts content with over 8,000 songs to choose from. And with drinks available at a press of a button, you can enjoy a range of cocktails, beers and wines, or if you are really celebrating, a bottle of champagne.
Sessions last 2 hours at a cost of £10 per person – although if you feel your voice box (and ears) can take it, you can contact them and book additional hours (We hope everyone can sing, more than two hours with me singing, you would running out the door.)

Hi, I visited Brighton in 2011 for a Hen-Do and have waited to go back ever since. Great night out and place to visit. We went to Lucky Voice and it was such a fun experience with friends. I’ve wanted to go to another Lucky Voice ever since but it seems I’m more of a karaoke fan than most people I know
These look really fun places, I was looking for a nice place to go out with a few friends, thanks.
