Bit of basic old fashion pub that is bit run down and looked more for 18 til 30. If visit expect good music however
Great pub and great atmosphere and was made really welcome but music was just a bit too loud for me had to shout to each other to have a conversation if music was more background music it would be brilliant but thats only cos have tinitus, it is a brilliant and very popular place so go and support a great little local pub
Visited 2nd October 2023 late afternoon. Back street pub in the heart of Derby's West End, surrounded by flats and houses. Looks a little rough from the outside and the inside is perhaps a bit tired; however, it's perfectly clean as were the toilets with toilet roll, hot water and working hand dryers....it's sometimes those small things that mean the most. Fairly typical range of big brand lagers, cider and spirits on offer, including drinks offers, also 3 cask beers on our visit which seemed well kept and drank well. Staff were friendly and helpful as were the other customers. Pool table in the back room and there's a decent beer garden to the side, live music is on every/most Saturdays. A classic example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
Great venue to see live bands, good range of ales and a worthwhile pub to visit for local musical talent. Friendly and well run. Well worth visiting. M
I visited The Horse and Groom pub during the day when it was pretty much dead (only two other punters). Most of the cask ales were not available, and the one that was turned out to be oxidized. A friend from Derby had recommended this place, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt that I simply had bad luck. As it is, a typical, fairly roomy community boozer with (theoretically) 5 ales on tap. With a pool table in the back.
