Quinno _ left this review about The Bricklayers Arms
A large bashed-around pub which has little in the way of a unifying theme. Surprised to see four ales clipped though all but one were actually labelled unavailable upon further scrutiny. The one that was on, Brakspear Gravity, was a musty mess via an overworked aspirator (NBSS 1.5). Friendly barmaid at least. Naff modern music covers via the stereo. Felt a bit depressing in here really, I presume they are reliant on the De Montfort student footfall alongside sporting flashmobs during the rugby and football season so feel like they don’t really need bother at other times. 3.5

The Bricklayers Arms has banquette seating in a carpeted section across the front windows either side of the entrance and a fireplace in the left-hand wall. The bar faces laminate flooring and runs up the right and further right is a sunken seating area with a pool table and table football. Televisions are found throughout for live sport. The bar counter supports standard keg and the three hand pumps were drawing Adnams Southwold, Old Mill Brewery’s Black Jack and Bank’s Amber Bitter. It was very quiet in here compared to other pubs of this size during my saunter around the area on a recent Tuesday evening. There were only two other customers, lets just say that I didn’t leave my coat on the back of my chair when I went for a tinkle. The barmaid was both polite and disinterested and my half was top end price and short measured. All in all it was a bit crap so I’ll be walking past next time.
