I have been coming here for years but yesterday had the joy of hosting my best friend’s bridal shower in the side bar and it was so amazing I finally got off my butt to post a review because they deserve it. Firstly Tricia and Roisin the Devlin’s/bodega managers are simply lovely human beings all around and on a regular day go above and beyond to make your experience great. The atmosphere of all their bars is what’s keeping Brighton center lively and still very Irish but happily incorporating a lot of cultural influences in the food that keep it exciting. The food at devlins though is always excellent and changes just enough to keep you interested but the old reliables are always available. As a vegetarian I really appreciate that they incorporate beyond/ impossible meats so I can still get a fancy sandwich/bao bun etc. I love their drinks and to have one on the patio while the sun shines is to know true happiness. I literally love all things about them but in particular if you ever want to host an event contact Roisin and do it! They were outstanding. This shower began at 11am and I was corralling family members out after 6pm to give you an understanding of how much everyone enjoyed themselves. We love Devlin’s!
