Been in for the first time in nearly 4 years, and while the decor has changed, it was still a nice pint, and was made to feel welcome.

Yes I agree. This place has gone to the Dogs. It used to be a nice old eccentric pub and now it has just turned into a horrible chain pub like any other, with loud music, offensive decor and lighting, and a different atmosphere to the relaxed supping it used to be. We went there once and once only after the renovation (5 or 6 months ago now?), and have NEVER stepped foot back in there since.

I like the new decor, and the beer range is among the best in the City! It is now called just "The Moot", and has a great Sunday night general knowledge quiz and Thursday music quiz.

A Tyne Mill (local pub company) pub with a good selection of 5 real ales. Well worth a visit.

This is a very pleasant non-smoking pub with an excellent choice of micro-brewery beers. It also offers a good choice of food at reasonable prices.

Went in last night (thursday), it's a bit loud, and pretty crowded, but OK. A lot of trendy looking students (I think) in there later on.

The Batemans XB was 2.40 a pint, and tasted good. There was a guest beer as well. Staff were freindly, atmospere was relaxed. We stood, but there were a few tables and easy chairs.

Decent pub, the beer was OK, I'd go again, maybe towards the end of the evening when I don't mind the loud music so much! (getting old....)

Upmarket older studey/post grad place,which lets the older punter sit around its big wooden tables-nice chill out music & cocktail range-well worth a look.

didn't go in for 6 months after it opened, but glad i did eventually, i can't keep out of the place. the foods amazing, the cocktails are even better. i agree with the guy below the staff are super friendly. it does live music on thursdays. in conclusion you can go to this pub for a nice relaxing drink and a something to eat in the day and then have a party in the evening. ah well who needs a degree anyway!!

Reviews by BITE users:

A `real ale` pub with middle class pretensions. I agree with the comments about the signs - `don`t do this` `don`t do that` `ask permisssion for etc`
Another sign now informs the fortunate consumer that smoking is banned throughout the premises, including the garden. Walking through the car park i noticed odedient customers standing on the pavement dutifully smoking their cigarettes at the required distance.
That stopped me in my tracks. I didn`t bother going in that day. The beer is well kept, but so is the beer in lots of other pubs. Spent my money elsewhere. Won`t be going back either
I propose another sign be posted near to entrances - `not welcome`

Beer selection and quality is second to none here - usually two Castle Rock beers plus others from small breweries with emphasis on local ones. Nice to see plenty of session ales as well. Landlord is a good bloke, staff are friendly and very efficient.

beer excellent!
cobs excellent!
staff peculiar, overeducated i think is the word.
the no mobile phones policy is just pathetic.

this pub just symbolises red-brick industrial nottingham. the beer is great, the garden is a sun-trap and it does rick's pork scratchings - awesome!!!! i wish it was nearer to town. just a wee bit pricey, that's all

Wanted two beers and had to return one that had gone to vinegar. Disappointed that we could not have a refund but had to have another beer we did not want. The quality of the other beers were good though.

Beer quality has been consistently good of late - Tree returning seems to have made all the difference. Lovely new wooden floor. All the beers at the St George's beer festival were absolutely lovely. Highly recommended
