The Industry, Stonegravels, Chesterfield

My first visit here for a number of years. I'd been intending to call in at the Chesterfield Arms, but this one seemed to have been spruced up a bit so I thought I'd pop in. The manager was friendly and welcoming and there were two real ales and a cider on the bar. I went for the Butcombe Original, which was in very good condition (NBSS 3.5); the other was Wainwright.

The Industry is a decent looking stand alone pub that is situated just off the newbold road,just to the north west of the town centre if you dont have the faintest idea where Stonegravels is. Once inside there is a smart oblong shaped lounge to the right,this room was carpeted and had comfy bench seating,there was a TV to the right showing vintage TV which looked like a very strange programme,there is a smaller seperate room to the rear left which is square shaped,this room is set aside for diners and had tables laid out. There were three pumps on the bar,two had no clips on and the third had its clip turned round,i asked for a drink of real ale,but was told it was not ready yet,i had a drink of keg Stones biter which was ok but nothing special. The pub was fairly busy with locals. This is a decent enough pub just a shame about the lack of any real ales. Pub visited 29/3/2014
