Foresters

Finally! After a series of disasters trying to visit this pub including several attempted visits on Sundays (when this pub is closed!) we finally made it on a Friday afternoon.
Worth the wait! Lincoln Green ales. Smart but unspoilt interior. Regulars who love this pub and are served by a dedicated and welcoming landlord. Still retaining a lounge, bar and snug.
Bought, recently, from the struggling Oakwell Brewery in Barnsley who also owned the now closed Lamp and the Moulders Arms, due to be converted into a nursery. So this is a success story against the odds.

Tap and Tumbler

This traditional, rock pub has had a makeover. Now serving real ale, looking smart and still retaining its rock heritage. Decent Nottingham brewery "Rock" bitter when I went. Good rock jukebox too. Pretty much my ideal pub!

The Stage

A traditional city centre pub serving Harvest Pale and Hobgoblin and classic pub food with a warm welcome. Clearly popular for lunch with its regulars. It has a hint of London about the place. An established, heritage pub.

Robin Hood

A traditional, former Home Ales pub in Sherwood. Still maintained in a smart and modern way. Pool table, food but decent Harvest Pale. Friendly and welcoming regulars when we went. Would go back.

Keogh's (The former Mansfield Arms)

Keogh's is the former Mansfield Arms. Also Benson's. Now an Irish pub showing Irish football and serving the usual lager and bitter suspects. Still retaining original features such as the fire place it actually has more character than I was expecting. And as it is tucked between much newer buildings it is quite an achievement that it is still standing.

Falcon

The grand re-opening of the Falcon! Tues 8th Oct 2013 at 4:00pm. After being told we would have to wait the last 4 minutes until it opened we finally made it in. 14 of us on a celebratory afternoon out with the team! Great beer, classic pub, great location. Shame the new landlord doesn't smile. Even on opening day with a full house. But he keeps a decent pint!
