Off-Peak Thursdays


Expect live music 7-10pm, good food and great atmosphere throughout!

Join us for an after-work après pint, cocktail or quick bite with your colleagues — and find out if you dislike the same co-workers.


Off-Peak Thursdays is Barbara’s answer to the after-work drink that actually delivers.

No rushing your first round before the train, no settling for a packed table at the back. Just good drinks, good food, and the kind of atmosphere that makes Thursday feel like the start of the weekend.

Expect live music from 7-10pm, food worth sticking around for, and great atmosphere throughout. Whether it’s a couple of pints with the team or the whole office making a night of it, this is Brighton’s after-work session done the Barbara way.


Friday gets all the attention, but Thursday is where the smart after-work crowd goes. Less queueing, more table options, and live music to boot — all from 4pm.

It’s the perfect midweek reset: not a big night out, not a quiet one either. Just the right amount of après energy to take the edge off the week.


  • Office teams — straight from work, straight into the Haus
  • Colleagues who actually like each other (or are about to find out)
  • Small celebrations — leaving dos, birthdays, “just because”
  • Anyone who wants their after-work pint with a bit more energy

Barbara’s Bier Haus Brighton is right in the heart of the city, easy to get to straight from the office for your Thursday session.

  • Minutes from Brighton Station
  • Walking distance from North Laine
  • Close to the seafront, if you fancy a walk to sober up before round two
