Lilley Langtry's, Nottingham

Despite the modern exterior paintwork, this feels an early 90s refit interior and a is somewhat battered around the edges. Seven cask mainly from Castle Rock and Pheasantry. I went for the outlier, Hollow Stone Vanilla Stout, and was astonished to be charged £3.65 for a half; it was passable but hardly sparkling given the price (NBSS 3). Felt like a rip-off venue to me and despite the GBG listing I won't be back anytime soon.

Oldish looking place, looks to be double fronted with central servery and a raised room at the back. 6 pulls on, fortunately I was put on a table I could see them from. Nothing exciting Broadside, Doom Bar, Shipstons Original and Oakham Bishops Farewell (thank god). Boarded floor and ceiling, any wall that isn’t exposed brick is rough plaster and scruffy tongue & groove. Decor consists of portraits and posters featuring the lady herself. Big screen each end of pub.
