Under new management, but not much has changed. Latest visit saw an extended range of beers, though still only Dancing Duck. However, the beer I had (Quack Addict), was much TOO COLD. Food now only serving weekday evenings or Saturday lunchtimes. Martinsh - 19 Sep 2016 23:10 |
I’m afraid I will have to revise my score for this pub downwards. On my latest visit, there were no guest beers available – only the two sets of the same 6 Dancing Duck beers. [ I chose Dark Drake, as it was my favourite of the ones available. ] Food is only now available in the evenings. Some of the traditional seating has been replaced by comfy sofas. There isn’t even a magic eye picture in the gents any more ! Still a good pub though. Martinsh - 9 Feb 2016 22:51 |
I'm afraid I have to agree with the previous post. Of the two Dancing Duck pubs in Derby I'd say that the Exeter is Dr Jekyll and the New Zealand is Mr Hyde. I walked a long way from the train station to visit the pub based upon it's previous reputation on recommendations from friends and I have to say it wasn't worth the walk for the quality of beer or the phone wielding staff. I'm afraid I can't comment on the food as I only stayed for a single pint, the Dark Drake was far superior when I had it in the Exeter on the way back to the station.

Beer is not kept right, food is poor and overpriced, staff are inept and impolite. It used to be a good pub, not anymore. My advice, don't bother. Pmh39 - 14 Nov 2015 13:22 |
It’s me again ! Just thought I’d better point out that the menu has changed. At lunchtimes nowadays you get a restricted range of soup, nachos, jacket potatoes and sandwiches. Evening meals are of a very standardised “pub grub” type. Beer range remains pretty much the same (including Duck Berry which I’ve never seen elsewhere), although the Vanilla Infused Porter wasn’t available this time. Martinsh - 29 Mar 2015 23:20 |
