Pub · Nottingham
One of Nottingham's oldest pubs, and it shows — dark beams, uneven floor levels, tiny snugs and caves running underneath. It's a bikers' and rock-music pub with a jukebox that covers every genre, so it's atmospheric rather than hushed, and better for a late-afternoon meal than a peaceful evening. The food punches well above the price: chicken tenders with American cheese, scampi and chips, a properly spicy Hellfire burger, and sweet potato fries that even the sceptics rave about. Portions are generous and it stays cheap. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor seating, and the staff make people feel welcome. Two honest snags — the old building means steps and awkward pram access, there's no parking outside, and the toilets are basic. Families call it "great value" and fun with it.
