| This pub failed our “bad pubs test” ! In fact the main thing that was wrong with was that it was completely empty ! (7pm on Tuesday). There was also only one real ale available, though there were a couple of other handpumps that had run out, and the one left was a very nice pint (well half) of Adnams Ghost Ship. This is the one pub on our crawl that I might actually go back into – though I hear it does tend to attract football crowds so will need to be careful with timing. Martinsh - 22 Nov 2015 23:16 |
| stopped in here as part of the pub crawl beofre derby v chelsea. only got a quick half and kept my mouth shut as only when i igot inside did i realise pretty much every one in there was a stone island wearing derby casual. very partisan crowd on match days and not a scarfer in sight. avoid if your from out of town.

| I visited this pub at the weekend as I had heard of its peculiar heritage and thought a spooky visit to Derby was definitely on the cards! This establishment is said to be home to a poltergeist and the remains of a damaged female skull reside behind the bar (an ancient skull discovered in the cellar no less!) Aside from these little eccentricities and the beautiful frontage this pub was rather a let down. It looks like a quaint 'proper' pub, inviting and suggestive of a cosy pint....this couldn't be further from the truth alas. The inside is very modernised and there is no doubt that this is a football pub. There is also a Jaegermeister machine behind the bar offering a range of concoctions and shot containing the stuff....above which resides the skull!!!! Not bad for a curious gander and a quick pint but certainly not one to visit again I don't think! Mymsy - 10 Dec 2013 16:59 |
| One of the so-called haunted pubs of Derby....oh really. Good boozer at weekends. Seafarer1966 - 17 Sep 2009 14:39 |
| Of the four city centre pubs we visited during our weekend visit, for me this was the most dissapointing. It has the outward look of a good old fashioned english pub, but on the inside is just another football-focussed tap room with basic furniture and blaring sports tvs. *** No food. There were 2 or 3 cask beers available. we had the youngs special, which was okay but a bit over-priced at �2.70/pint. *** verdict: "Admire the exterior and move on". couldn't agree more! a disappointed 3 from me. mostly for the beer. reynard - 6 Feb 2009 13:47 |
