Pubs and Breweries

Due to our unique cave system, which was historically used to store ale, Nottinghamshire was once famed throughout the land for its ale and beer. Today, with award-winning breweries like Navigation Ales, Blue Monkey and Castle Rock maintaining these high standards, Nottinghamshire continues to be an ideal destination for any beer connoisseur.

With both Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem and The Bell Inn each claiming to be England's oldest pub, the largest selection of ‘World Beers’ in the East Midlands at The Canalhouse, and extra special venues like Nottingham’s Victorian music hall The Malt Cross, there are some amazing places to eat, drink and be merry. For great ale and classic pub grub, The Cross Keys in the historic Lace Market is a must. Hop to it and discover a fine selection of pubs, bars, restaurants and cafes, brimming with an ever-changing selection of real (or cask) ales and innovative craft beers.

Each October one of the biggest and best-loved beer festivals in the country takes place. The Robin Hood Beer and Cider Festival presents over 1,000 different real ales and over 200 real ciders from nationwide and local micro-breweries, plus live entertainment. If that’s not enough to whet your whistle, various smaller beer festivals take place throughout the year, including the Newark, Retford and Hucknall beer festivals.

If you fancy getting some insider info on all of the best bars and pubs in town, there's numerous trails to download, print or follow online. Click here browse them all.

Not a beer fan? You'll be dazzled by out-of-the-ordinary bars - often with more than meets the eye - which offer delicious cocktails and exotic surrounds. For delectable drinks in an uber-stylish setting, be sure to check out Copper, in the heart of the city centre, or their lovely West Bridgford bar.
