I hear RFC - but it's really expensive in there. Some madness like £4 for 6 wings and chips.
My Brighton nomination would probably have to be chicken cottage by the level. Spent last Valentine's Day (not the whole day, just sat down for a meal) in there with my mate and his housemates, quite a good laugh. The one up near seven dials roundabout is alright, actually. Sells booze too

Why does anyone do this? It didn't look good in the 80s, it didn't look good five years ago and yet people still have it now when it's not in fashion?

You'd take that back if you've ever had EFES's on Preston Road in B'ton. It's like all the chickens had cancer and were just left to die of that rather than being slaughtered in their prime. my gf bought some and couldn't finish a single wing. I took them on and probably harvested about 2 grams of meat off 6 wings, all pale, fetid, jelly-like tumours with weird dark patches and a faint smell of cheap curry powder.
I'd rather eat raw crow than tackle that shit again.

I did laugh at the description of your misfortune.
