Decent enough pub right behind the Travelodge. 3 beers on - Home Ales Robin Hood Pale, Little John Proper ale and Batemans Salem porter. The pale was decent if expensive at £4.00 a pint! Had a good time watching a disgruntled motorist rushing from a nearby café as a traffic warden (or parking enforcement officer if you prefer!) circled her car which was on double yellows and blocking a roller shutter door.

The Ned Ludd Is a new pub housed in an older building that has been many things over the years including a restaurant. Originally it was under the running of navigation Brewery so I never went that much because I am not the biggest fan of their beers. However several months ago it was taken over by the far superior Nottingham brewery and now regularly has their beers on the bar which greatly pleases me. The pub is quite narrow with the bar running along the left hand side wall with lots of tables and chairs dotted around and some wood panelling in the centre to segregate the bar area with the tables and chairs that are further back to make it more of a separate part that diners can use. The decor is traditional pub style but with a modern twist and the interior although not as traditional as I usually like but has been done very nicely and is not like the metallic and plastic modern bars you usually see. There is also an outside seating area that runs across the front window but this is quite small and near the road. When navigation first open this place they (unusually for them, a predominantly cask ale brewery) had a very large focus on craft beer and thus had 14 different lines on at their usually silly prices. Not the type to buy into this new craft beer hype I stuck to my usual drink of cask real ale. There are four pumps and two permanently feature the brewery’s two biggest sellers Extra Pale Ale and Legend (both £3.30). The other two feature a constantly changing guest and a rotating Nottingham Brewery beer from their regular line up or one of their seasonal beers that on this visit was their centurion mild. I ordered a pint of legend that was totally off and vinegar which surprised me as they usually take good care of their beer and I would have expected better seeing as they are owned by A brilliant Brewery as their beers in their other outlets in Ruddington and Radford have the beer impeccably kept. It was returned and the girl was in total agreement and swiftly swapped it for a pint of EPA which was well kept. Overall I quite like this place and aside from the hiccup have always enjoyed a decent beer and the new wave craft drinkers will really like it. Very traditional pub goers might see it as too modern but I think it is a good balance between old and new and would be happy calling in here again.
