Formerly the Royal Albion and first licensed for drinks in 1730 this spacious former hotel has been tastefully refurbished with many improvements including a stage for live music, beautifully designed bar tops, stylish furniture and with traditional hand-written signage. There is a smaller bar which can be shut off as a small function room and a separate larger bar. It has kept its traditional ambience as a Wiiliam Younger's house complete with clan tartan panels. It has six hand pumps and the food menu is continually changing, it has established a reputation for its award-winning pies and pasties. The food is also available from the Pasty Shack on the seafront side of the pub. Up to four changing real ciders from Sussex and Kent are served from boxes in the 'Marine Parade' bar.
