user reviews of the Dragon, Nottingham

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

I must disagree with last comment. The Dragon is definately above average and they always have a selection of Adnams including the best kept Broadside in the City. Beer garden is great. good eclectic mix of music too.

Average small city-centre pub; beer quality (Harvest Pale) OK but hardly Beerb Guide quality given competition in Nottingham (I thought).

Decent pub, in the good beer guide, with good pub food - recommend the beefburger with bacon and cheese.

An oddly structured 'long and thin' pub. Quite nice in a shabby kind of way.

A well worked blend of traditonal pub & more modern bar (e.g good spirit selection), always a lively atmosphere, good mix of clientelle. The grub is pretty good too.

I've always liked it in here. It mixes a classy, almost trendy atmosphere with old-fashioned pub values and does it really well. There's always a couple of good real-ales on offer too.

Great pub on the high street. Enjoyed several Deuchars which were very well kept in the interesting beer garden.

Good City Centre pub - We visited in daylight hours, so it looks a bit tatty but the beer is tasty. The Music/zak might put off some older clients but not us4.

Awesome pub. Friendly staff and a wide selection of spirits and cocktails.

Nice outside bit as well.

Rare proper pub in the centre of town, decent pint of Adnams, good food, friendly bar staff, always lively but not usually heaving. Wish there were more like this...

Nice pub and to see a lot of the old Turf Tavern lot in there , speaks for it's self .

Funny gastro-stripped-down-old-pub-local fusion. But it does work and the bar staff were nice when i was last there. Can get a bit draughty in mid-December, but still a comfortable boozer which is rarely intimidating (youth oriented Nottingham city centre pub? Not intimidating? REALLY?) and well worth a visit.

first time i went in at the weekend - liked it a lot - felt like a local in the centre of town which is very unusual - give it a try

quality place. good food, beer and service. has good atmosphere but can get busy at the weekends.

Worth a detour whilst in the city centre. Good food (if a little pricey), fine pint of adnams plus fair selection of top shelfers. Interesting beer garden to rear inspired by Dairmud Gavin on a Mondrian kick.

This city centre pub has a wine bar feel to it now but still sells a reasonable quality pint of Adnams.
