Their beer comes solely from the Goodness Brewery. Four keg beers from them but rebadged. Black clips, the house style, they say Goodness on them and are named Stout, IPA, Lager and Low which is quite simple and obvious! Low is 2.0%, a hazy style pale ale. We think it is Small Wonder rebadged. Glasses are Goodness branded. Nice and relaxed place compared to the others around here and very much a ladies that lunch (in the evening) style of place.

The pub serves a very light bar menu all day (not defined but we can assume during the afternoon) and a slightkly expanded version 12-3 and 6-10. Their website seems unclear when full meals are sold? We have done our best from what info we can find.

Closed as the Joker and reopened as Day & Night but that did not last. From the This is Local London website, "The Hicce Hart will open on November 18 at the west end of Chapel Market in the building whose last incarnation was as Day & Night." The features may need updating - currently their website lacks info.

A little way up Penton Street and on the corner of Chapel Market (a street and a market), it had reopened in June 2009 retaining on the outside its original impressive Courage brown tiling and sign. It then changed ownership in 2013 and its name with a lot more building work done.

The following text represents a previous incarnation as The Joker-

A feature is a huge clock used as part of Oasis's shows, old B&W framed photos, large distressed tables, sofas, bar stools and exposed brickwork. Cask ales were initially given more prominence, featuring beers from Laine's Brighton Brewery plus guests but in Jan 2017 it was reported that all the handpumps had been removed replaced by a "wall of keg".

Historic Interest

Local Listing:- Dual painted tile frontage, Penton Street and Chapel Market. Penton Street: Four pilasters, one stallriser, one blocked door, one step, clear glass fanlight and extract. Side panel to door; panelled timber.
