Glad we popped in here as we managed to get a taste of Medieval Brewery Chivalry, which was very good. This Punks and Rockers pub consisted of a large room and bar on the right and a couple of smaller rooms off this with a pool table in the back room. Newspaper cuttings of bands round the bar area.

A town centre Georgian style corner pub and live music venue with a patio area at the back. The exterior is in a cream upper, with white lower facade on a green plinth, with some green paintwork and etched windows.
The interior has three ground floor rooms and an upper room where the bands play. The three rooms are a main bar, a side pool room in red and white, as well as a quieter back room in green and exposed brickwork. The main bar is a straight room and in undressed brick and wood panel, with a red ceiling and wood floor. There is a dart board. The walls are lined with posters of alternative music gigs recently on or about to be on. The service was fine and the clientele a mix of punk, goth, those ones beginning with E and 40 somethings in shirts and jeans; mainly younger but there were others my age! Amazingly, the music was alternative, but not played to make your ears bleed.
Beer; usual tap stuff with Coppice side Nottinghamshire Blonde and a decent Blue Monkey BG Sips and Nottinghamshire Brewery's Rock Bitter on handpull.
A great alternative music pub where nobody bothers what age or how you are dressed. Pub games, good beer, good welcome, I would more than happily return.

The Old Angel is one of the original lace market pubs before the rash of new bars opened in this area.
This pub used to be an Home Ales tied house and once inside here the pub is still the same as it was years ago.
There are two rooms in this pub with the bar on the right and a quieter lounge to the left,i went in the bar which is a long narrow room with the bar on the left the walls are bare brick and the flooring is bare boards there is bench seating and small stools at the front and tables and chairs at the rear where there is also a darts board.
There were four handpumps on the bar but only one was in operation this was Blue Monkey BG Sips and this was a very nice drink.
The pub has a bohemian feel to it and most of the customers have unusuall hair but i thought this was a friendly pub and i would be happy to come in here again.
