Devonshire Arms, Burton On Trent Town, Burton on Trent

The old Ind Coop sign outside makes you wonder what you’re going to get. In fact, this is an ex-Burton Bridge pub and is now a freehouse. A two roomed interior via a side corridor and served by a central bar dividing the two; the main bar is where the locals seemed to congregate, it has tiled flooring, a bit of embossed wallpaper, banquette seating and 70's vibe Including a noticeable draught from the windows, which needs attention). There’s a larger room to the rear which I didn’t really explore. Four ales on; Bristol Beer Factory, Bass, Uttoexeter and Burton Bridge Porter (NBSS 3.5) along with three Lilleys ciders. My mid-afternoon visit found the place to be really quiet and I didn’t settle as well as I’d have liked. Suspect I’d have got more out of it later on. 6.5

Classic Pub with good Burton Bridge Beer. Worth checking out. Visit blogged at http://bit.ly/2O9rRfy
