| The third stop on our “bad pubs” crawl of Derby – and I think this one took the biscuit. The whole demeanour of the place was tatty. There were a few drunkards making amorous advances at each other, and the bar staff were wearing coats. Then after we’d been drinking for 5 minutes, all the lights went out ! They’d decided to have a disco – so there were lights flashing, and the music was turned up louder. No-one was dancing though – in fact besides us, I think they were all either too old or too inebriated ! To be fair, there were a couple of plus points. They took great care in pouring our halves of Pedigree (the only real ale available), making sure they were topped up (even though we weren’t really bothered). And the music was good stuff from the 1960s/70s. Martinsh - 22 Nov 2015 23:13 |
| Why is this pub listed twice on this site? Anyway: An alcoholics boozer, full of red faced old blokes turning their livers to stone. Definitely USED to be a drug dealing place but it's in new hands now so I don't know. Dealers used to frequent the bogs whilst their pregnant 14 year old girlfriends were at the pool table. It's been painted and the place no longer smells of sweaty unwashed people...well not whilst the paint is fresh anyway. Seafarer1966 - 16 Sep 2009 15:32 |
