What a fabulous bar... proper old school pub. Impromptu musical get together (Monday night) so good. Bit of an Irish vibe pub going off. Real fire. Great choice of ciders available. Beer nice. Well kept. Really friendly customers. Dominoes... darts... Dog friendly. Nice smoking area. Friendly guy behind the bar. It's a 10 from me.

Very much a local pub and busy which is always a good sign to me! Everyone is friendly though and service with a smile by the staff. Dog friendly with regular beer changes at very decent prices.

Lovely old fashioned local. Decent beer, no Sky Sports (I like football, but not ALL the time). Low key and friendly. Often live acoustic folk music (like being in Irish tourism advert sometimes). Especially Mon/Tue but often someone drops by and plays a mandolin etc, not for a show, just because. No food except well priced bar snacks. Little "garden" that's a sun trap in summer. No wow factor, but it will work its way into your heart.

At the junction of Swinney Lane and  Chesterfield Rd, this traditional pub lies just a few minutes walk from the centre of Belper.   We were impressed from the outset by this cozy boozer, the entrance being on the Chesterfield Rd side.   Four hand pumps were on, we tried three and all were in tip top condition.  The landlady knows her beer and clearly maintains a high standard, in their freshest condition they were all hard to stop drinking.  Moderate background music did not intrude over the chat of loyal regulars whose dogs are welcomed. To the rear of the bar is a larger seating area with leather sofas, and the outside covered decking area has some beautiful hillside views.  Clean throughout including toilets, this is a well kept real ale pub which we really could not fault.

Stopped off here for a pint after a walk from Ambergate. Ended up staying for 4! A combination of top quality beer, a lovely landlady and super friendly regulars made it really difficult to leave. We'll be back very soo.

A nice range of select real ales, ciders, gin blends and spirits. A traditional local pub, usually with local musicians every few weeks. I have certainly enjoyed the warm welcome from the staff and the other customers, and the lovely atmosphere tonight. I will definitely return for more!

This pub is a little gem. Family friendly,dog friendly accompanied by well behaved humans. Bar snacks & pies available. Excellent friendly bar service offering a well kept deep cellar with lines cleaned after every barrel offering a reasonable selection of real ale,lagers,ciders and a superb selection of gins. An outside clean garden area offering chairs and superb views of the valley. There is a good live music bi weekly session on Sundays to mooch around, drink and relax to. Come in, you won't regret it.

Constantly rotating choice of real ales that are always of the best quality. April really takes her time researching old favourites and new and upcoming choices. A really good range of ciders and gins on offer as well as regular live music. What a local pub should be!! Jim
