Large 'Eating Inn', a Greene King-owned chain. Wide number of separate eating / dining areas in various parts of the original building and extensions. Fairly bland - but not altogether displeasing - corporate furniture and decor. Helpful staff. Two banks of four handpumps, offering IPA, Abbot, Abbot Reserve and Titanic Red Ensign (£3.00) as a guest. Overall, not bad if you are in its target market i.e. looking for somewhere to have a family lunch or evening meal.

A huge pub sited on the West bound side of the A52. Car access is from Wollaton road only, the exit dumps you back onto the A52 further West. This place seems to re-invent itself every 2 or 3 years with massive refits. Having once been part of the Hardy Hanson chain, it is now owned by GK and is branded as an Eating Inn pub. I have not been in since it's last refit, but previously the place was OK. Family orientated with lots of dining tables and the usual GK brews on the bar as well as a guest or two. Might be worth calling in on your way west out of the city, but to be fair, Nottingham and Beeston for that matter have far better drinking establishments.
