The Ropewalk, Nottingham

Too expensive? I don't get it. Yes, I was only in the pub because of some random reunion thing and my first time in nottingham, but I'd rather pay �3 odd for a pint of well kept totally different european beer than pay jack all for some generic crap that you can gat everywhere. Maybe they price up for this reason, those wheat beers can't be cheap to import. As for the ales, had a lovely pint of Henrys IPA, which I know isn't local, but maybe this isn't a real ale pub as much of the below reviews wish. Maybe, just maybe, it's a pub that's got it's act together and taylors for just about every taste. Moaning about �2.75 a pint? God, bet the new chancellor's your best mate...

The Kings Head, Earls Court

Lovely little pub, visited for the first time last thursday. Was heaving, but still had no problems getting served quickly and by a happy person for once, something I find rare in this town. Didn't manage to eat, but enjoyed some lovely handpulled porter & stout (Fullers & Cains respectively), beers I rarely find on the taps these days. According to the staff they only got a new manager last month, looks like he's doing a good job. Atmosphere was great, not blaring music but loads of chatter, I'll definitely be going back next time i'm in the area.
