The Masons Arms, Derby

Will Larter left this review about The Masons Arms

An unusual building with what looks a little like a Dutch gable on an extension protruding at right angles towards the road, and another building at a lower level to the left (which may be the original inn). Internally, it's on two levels, with a small staircase between the two. Not enough has been made of this feature in a recent refurbishment, which struck me as being in poor taste and lacking any character. (The wallpaper in the gents features red London buses, the Abbey Road zebra crossing and Carnaby Street models. In Derby?!) The woman who served me similarly failed to make any impression, and I found the whole place rather bland and corporate. My half of Bass, though in good condition, was also rather taste-free, but at least this can't be blamed on the pub. (See photo for other beers on at the time of my visit.)
