The Jolly Pug

Another new bar in Sherwood. Actually, it's more of an eatery if I'm honest. Tapas. There's a decent drinks menu but it isn't what I'd call a pub. There's fizzy beer like Estrella on draft but no real ale. 

A thriving little place though and apparently you need to book for food at weekends. A buzzing atmosphere when we went and yet another reason to go out in Sherwood. 





The Winchester

Having found out about this new boozer from my friends at The Gladstone I finally paid it a visit with my good lady on 19th Feb 2022. Up the stairs at the bottom corner of Winchester St to an outdoor seating and drinking area complete with outdoor TV. There is also the shipping container hosting karaoke, presumably the one that used to sit downstairs when it was a café. Lots of decorative lighting. Then through a door to quite a quirky bar. The owner and host was very welcoming. Two real ales on from the Welbeck Abbey brewery. 80s music playing. Quite a loud place with a varied demographic. There was a group of young lads in there as well as older couples. It certainly has an atmosphere and was good fun. The ale was good too.
