Our venues.
Siblings, not twins.

It all began for us at the Hand in Hand in Brighton back in 2015. The pub was a Brighton institution; brewing and selling its own beers, local beers and interesting imports including the legendary Hacker-Pshorr and Liefmans Cherry Beer.

The Hand in Hand is an incredible community corner boozer and it forms the bedrock of our outlook as a company. It’s what we think pubs should be: a safe, comfortable, happy place where everybody’s welcome. A place that proudly absorbs the community’s personality and shares the space for interesting, unusual and rare events.

In 2022, we jumped at the chance to open a venue in Worthing. We wanted to create a venue that shared the same ethos as the Hand in Hand, but could be its own place. A place where the community could put their stamp on it. And they did. The Toad was born.

In 2026, we opened our brewery taproom, Yard by Hand Brew Co.
