| This pub has an excellent selection of real ales & a nice outdoor seating area overlooking the river, the pub could do with a lick of paint though & maybe a screen out the back to block out the view of the industrial estate. lovesong - 31 Aug 2008 12:16 |
| You wouldn’t stumble across this pub, it takes a bit of finding being tucked away on the edge of an industrial estate. The property looks a bit tired and I expect not a lot of money has been spent on it recently. But that’s part of the charm for those who like traditional old boozers. You do wonder how long it might last which seems a good excuse to search it out now. There are three rooms, the main bar, an Offilers room and a nice well-decorated snug. There is a small outside yard with a couple of tables that overlook the river. It has a good reputation for real ales and the CAMRA stalwarts will definitely have it on their itinerary for a Derby pub crawl Millay - 16 Dec 2007 21:49 |
| Hard to find pub. The ale here has always been excellent. Oakham Ales and Whim still the regulars. Served in lined over-sized glasses. Bit of a strange atmosphere in here though. Not sure it's a place I'd visit on my own. Could do with a bit of clean too. Slake - 27 Oct 2007 18:49 |
| Enjoyed a Whim beer here from the good selection available. Seating area outside is overlooking the river. gillhalfpint - 18 May 2007 12:48 |
| A smallish pub with a great choice of real ale and full of characters (both sides of the bar). On my visit, I was made most welcome and all thw regulars seem to have nicknames. I heard the names Mac, Cockney, Whinge, Ticker John, Girly Steve, Parky Pete and Ambulance Dave (I didn't dare ask). This is what makes a pub! laibach123 - 1 Feb 2007 13:28 |
