Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem, Nottingham

Multiroomed pub built into the side of rock under the former Nottingham Castle. The pub also has a museum room. The courtyard is covered and the pavement area also has seats. Six real ales are served including Olde Trip plus good number of guests. Food is served all day.

Have visited the olde Trip on numerous occasions and discovered something new each time. Truely a fasicnating building built into the caves under Nottingham Castle, its friendly atmposphere is helped by a decent range of ales and lagers including its own 'Olde Trip' bitter and a wide ranging menu including pies, snacks and sandwiches. Souveniers on sale. Limited parking and small outside seating area

Thought by some to be the oldest pub in England it is in fact relatively 'new' compared to the actual oldest, which I believe is in St Albans, or the second oldest - The Eagle and Child (947 AD) in Stow on the Wold. This quirky pub is cut into the sandstone cliff beneath the castle near the city centre. The rear part of the pub is actually a series of caves. Car parking very limited. Although I've been there many times I've never felt comfortable and although they frequently change their real ales they were never better than average. A place to visit for the experience & to say you have been there. Somewhere near here, prince Edward (later Edward III) gained access to the castle via the caves & arrested Roger Mortimer.

Amazing pub.worth the trip to Nottingham alone

One of the best pubs in town serving many great beers in an absolutely fantastic location.
