Great venue. Friendly people and variety of age groups. Keep an eye out for their events as they are fantastic

First time here came for the only fools and horses night which was great. Staff friendly. I will say though for such a small place and so many people you do tend to overheat a bit. So lot of time outside cooling down. Didn't have any food here so can't comment in that part. They serve pepsi max always a bonus finding somewhere that does serve it. Lots of event nights happening throughout the year. Sure to return in the future

I like this venue, though it may be small, but it is perfect because they hold events like line dancing. So much fun and always a good turn out. Drinks aren’t bad, normal prices, toilets are a bit of a walk away though

I really like Maggie Mae's it's such a fun place to be when it's full and buzzing. Being in cool Preston St makes it even better. Staff are friendly. I've had some fantastic afternoons and evenings there.

Great atmosphere with the decor and space. Live bands and loads of music memorabilia. It is like a low end version of the hard rock cafe but with a family friend twist. A must in Brighton as the street it is located on has lots of food and fun. Give it a go

Had new year in Maggie maes, very busy, had great music all night, good service, got to fight your way to the loos, as other side of dance floor, but brilliant night we all loved it, plenty on all year so look up and go for good night out. Don't know about food,
