More about Lewes

East Sussex, England

Lewes sits pretty in East Sussex with a history that makes old buildings look like they've just had their tea. The Royal Oak has been hosting local bands for years while The Rights of Man keeps the conversation going on a rainy Tuesday. It's a good spot to be if you want something other than looking at your phone. Pub quizzes pop up through the week and the odd open mic night keeps things interesting. Near Here pulls it all into one place so you're not stuck checking a dozen websites on a Sunday evening.
