Steve of N21 left this review about The Geldart
Of all the side-street corner pubs in this eastern part of the city this is my personal favourite. As a self confessed jazz head, anywhere that is musically themed with reliably good ales,dispensed by brass instruments instead of your standard hand pumps, and pictures of Miles Davis and other Jazz greats adorning its walls firmly has me by the short and curlies.
Another good visit here. Eight ales on the go with a good mix of styles and the Vale Brewery’s Black Beauty Porter I went for was in good condition.
This is still right up there for me, so no need to modify my previous rating.

The Geldart is a music themed pub cum exhibition of musical instruments, including a very impressive glass topped piano that is being used as a table. Lots of stuff to look at, the musically inclined people in our group were very excited, and rightly so. Even the eight hand pump handles are made of cut down musical instruments! Salopian’s Lemon Dream, St Austell’s Tribute, Adnams Ghost Ship, Vocation’s Bread & Butter, Oakham’s Citra, St Ives Meor and Vale Brewery’s Black Beauty Porter were the cask options. I went for the Vocation which was well served by a very friendly barmaid. This place is well worth a look.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Geldart
One of the many side-street corner pubs in this eastern part of the city near the railway line, but this one is a recent local Camra-award winner. Attractive twin-bar interior, with both parts semi-traditionally decorated with a musical theme, and the link between them having a glass-topped grand piano as a table! Good selection of eight cask beers on handpumps with handles created from small instruments, with the Vale Black Beauty (£5.20) being in great shape. Notably efficient and personable staff too, so that's always worth an extra point.
