Suburban pub in a residential area 3 miles to the north of Hull city centre. It can be reached by the number 5 bus from the centre or by a short walk from the busy Beverley Road where several bus services run.
This pub appeared in the Good Beer Guide as recently as 2019, but no longer serves real ale. Keg beers were Carling, Fosters, Guinness, Kronenbourg, John Smith's, Coors, Strongbow & Strongbow Dark Fruit.
There is one sub-divided room with the bar to the rear of one side. On arrival there was nobody serving, but the young guy playing darts soon moved behind the bar to serve me. I have to say that the dozen or so customers were all quite friendly. They were obviously aware that I was a bit of a stranger, but I received a greeting when I arrived and was bid farewell when I left. This seems like a really good example of a community local, despite them no longer serving any cask ale.

A solid estate pub with a group of locals watching a TV programme about hippos and how they secrete a natural sunscreen which also has antiseptic qualities, ideal for protection from both sunburn and infected battle wounds. And the sole real ale, which was Wainwright, was in pretty good condition and just £3 a pint.

Quinno _ left this review about The Lord Nelson
A quasi flat-roofed local’s local close to the University and ventured in to its GBG17 listing. Someone's made sure that interior is neat and tidy, with an eclectic mix of rugby league shirts pinned to the ceiling, whacky pub carpet that may be original and a dark varnish wood pool room. Perhaps an unlikely looking GBG entry but the clips above the bar attest to a pushing of cask. Two pumps in view with Tetley Bitter and Cameron's Brown Dog (good nick) available. It was a decent little stop.
