Commercial Inn, Nottingham

Austere brick building, with an old-fashioned lounge on one side and a much larger opened-out bar area on the other combining two rooms and featuring a raised seating area with a central pool table. Several patio tables out in the rear yard. A few - very cheap - meals on offer. Just the commemorative Churchill (£2.60) from a bank of four handpumps on each counter. Very quiet on a Saturday lunchtime, and the sign on the façade notes that Greene King are looking for an entrepreneur to take the place on, so let's hope that things take a turn for the better soon.

The Commercial is a stern looking victorian pub that used to be a Kimberley tied house.It is now a Greene king tied house. This pub has still got two rooms with the bar to the right and the lounge on the left this room is fairly smart there are a couple of real ales on here with Greene King IPA plus another beer from that brewery. This is a decent enough pub to have a couple of drinks in.
