Dead Wax Social in Brighton and Hove

It was late on a Saturday night. Doormen were friendly. Bar service was OK. It wasn't busy. There was a DJ and a rapper on. The younger generation were enjoying it

This used to be a great dive bar with tons of Vinyl you could choose to put on and a big range of Craft Beer.Sadly the craft is largely gone and the vinyl has seen better days.The food is still decent and they do have one or two Craft beers on. It still has a nice vibe but it's a shame it's changed so much.

Went for pub, it looked small from outside but was spacious inside. Music was great, loved that they had turn-tables. All of a sudden, they turned it to club with dj. It was so nice!!

Came to this pub and was greeted by the stench craft beer, Italian herbs, and possibly the best looking man I’ve seen in my life, a Greek demi-god-like eighties throwback with long flowing dark locks, a cheeky face, and absolutely impeccable customer service. I had the pizza provided by their busy and open kitchen at the back; the food was indescribably moreish and flavourful, the beer was great, the music was spot on. I might go back everyday

I've given a one star here purely because of one thing. The attitude of one barman that's let his team down. The most miserable person in the world serving us. White male, 6ft,long black hair, skinny build. Get him trained on how to serve people properly and with manners. And if you don't like your job, let someone else have it, who needs it.

Apart from location is easy to find, I can't really give anymore star to this place. The drinks is on the high side at best, my bottle of 12% wine cost £20+. I ordered 5no pizzas, 3 of them were burnt either on the crust or on the bottom, I meant charred. My pizza was a special order as I cannot eat tomato, so I order a none tomato double cheese spicy sausage pizza, and first, I got a pepperoni pizza with tomato base, which I have sent back, the next one come without tomato, but with pepperoni which is not what I thought of spicy sausage means, but too embarrassed to send it back, I kept it and my colleagues ate it but they already have their own pizzas so we left half of it when we left. The place is not very clean, with pizza crusts left on the floor from previous visitors. All is all, not a great experience. I am a traveller and this place was recommended to me so I have to go back and tell the person who recommended it to rethink when she recommend this place again.

Disappointing at best :/ The vibe is great and the staff are super friendly and laid-back which I like in a bar but the food ruined it completely. Pizza completely burnt (literally black) with watery toppings and slow inconsistent service. Pretty sure I was overcharged but couldn't eat half the food anyway. They change you before so not like you can not pay for it. Love a laid-back atmosphere as long as it doesn't sacrifice the quality of the food but I felt like my flatmate made me a 2am pizza after a night out

Staff are amazing and friendly, beers are fab, tunes are bangin and pizzas are DELICIOUS. Would definitely recommend a visit!!

Nice choice of drinks. Menu looked good but we had dinner planned elsewhere. Something different and a great vibe to relax in with a beer.Great pizzas too!

Good atmosphere here, would definitely recommend, place is quite small but nice with vinyl everywhere and I like the rooms and layout of the place. One of my fav bars to go to on the evenings, always seems to be chill nice people there, would say most people here are 20-40yr and staff are very friendly. (Rooms in daytime could be a bit lighter)
