Also used to be known as 'Swifts' around 1990.

Cor! what memeories...Saturday night in 'Swifts' in the 70s, the bars were awash with Brighton's equivalent of Essex girls, all little black numbers and black stilettos. It was a standard precursor to a night at 'The Suite' across the road. The overcrowding was ridiculous and converstation impossible. A proper West St Saturday night pub.
