The Blessington Carriage, Derby

One of Derby's best town pubs. Frequented by an eclectic clientelle, mostly intelligent friendly young and young-at-heart people, it doesn't appeal to those who go out looking for trouble, despite some amazing drinks offers, so you always feel safe. Excellent DJs and other entertainment, mainly indie/rock orientated. Extremely friendly staff and management. Not really for real ale connoisseurs or those seeking quiet conversation, but it doesn't pretend to be. It's my favourite Friday night out - and by the way I'm in my mid-50s.
