Alan Winfield left this review about The Lord Nelson
The Lord Nelson is a three storey town pub that is a short walk from the middle of Alcester.
Once inside there is a single oblong shaped room,there were normal tables and chairs to the front left,the bar was on the right side,the seating near the bar and to the rear was a mix of different table sizes and seating.
There were five real ales on the bar,i had a drink of St Austell Tribute which was a decent drink,the other beers were Brains Reverend James,Purity UBU,Brew X1 and Thwaites Coiled Spring.
There was some background music playing very quietly.
This was a decent laid back pub to have a drink in.

This rambling old pub is set just off the main town centre and has a fairly sedate, convivial atmosphere albeit my visit was not exactly at peak hours. The interior is done in a mock Tudor style but there are a few old beams to give it a bit more authenticity. The carpeted main bar is divided up by a few screens and pillars making it feel fairly intimate and there is a handsome fireplace to warm up the winter nights. The walls are adorned with several pictures (mainly nautical), plates and brasses as well as a few bits of Nelson memorabilia. To the left of the bar is a games area with TV, darts board and an all too rare bar billiards table. The bar is quite small and 3 Real Ales available: Green King IPA, Bombardier and the more unusual P.G. Steam. It all comes over as warm and comfy and should appeal to a cross selection of customers although it is probably more geared towards the older generation or those who like their pubs a little less boisterous.
