Pretty sound pub, decent enough beers and I spent a decent afternoon playing pool in there swigging back. Nay bad...

Although this is an “unbranded” M&B pub, it offers pretty much the same selection of real ales and a very similar, if not identical menu as the nearby Ember Inns (The Broadway and The Markeaton). The Red Cow, in effect, seems to be a “mini” Ember Inn but as it is smaller and not on a main road, the atmosphere is much more friendly and relaxed.

The food, although nothing special, was satisfactory and I have no complaints about the quality of the beer, the staff or the service.

The pub’s history as quoted in the previous report is somewhat wide of the mark. Although there have been several later additions, the original pub building dates from around 1800 and parts of it are reputed to be older.

Nice brick built pub possibly 100 years old. A small number of real ales. Rather smoky at times. Good size car park. Nice location.
