The Elephant and Castle pub is a well established Lewes venue, built in 1838. Taken over in March 2007 by Declan and Huw.   
   
The downstairs rooms allow clientele to play pool and table football (a proper, open topped Bonzini), watch sports on various big screens, or just relax in one of the quieter corners. A pleasant outdoor patio area has been built, allowing customers to take in the brief glimpses of sunshine available in the British summer.   
   
Upstairs is one high ceilinged function room with open fireplace and lit by two chandeliers.  This room is available for hire for a variety of functions. Refreshments can be arranged, from tea and biscuits to buffets and sit down meals.   
   
Huw and Declan have got the pub in the hallowed pages of the CAMRA Good Beer Guide since 2006 and have good relations with the CAMRA organisation.    
   
Harveys Best Bitter is stocked all year round alongside revolving guest bitters, currently Timothy Taylor Landlord and Ringwood Best. Also available is Old Rosie, a traditional hand pump cider from Westons.
