The Newshouse — Restaurant in Nottingham

Half the pub was closed for a private event (even though no one was in there) so the area we were is was a little squashed. Good selection of real ales and craft beers (the arbor tik tonk was stunning) Unfortunately when we visited there was an extremely loud group of men on thier Christmas party playing a darts game which apparently required a lot of shouting and the pub had the bullseye theme tune music on repeat which was extremely irritating for other customers. For these reasons despite the excellent beers we only stayed for one and moved on. I'll try it again but first impressions for atmosphere...

Popped in today to try the new menu on offer from D-Grilled dhaba kitchen which is cooking up fresh food within the pub. I had the lamb tikka wrap and it was blummin' lovely! Food is served in a takeaway carton, so you can eat in the pub if you want to, sit outside in the sunshine or take it away to eat if you want/need to (which I did as my lunchtime is short - but I also had a swift half while I was there too 😉) Can fully recommend a visit for both drinks and food.... And maybe even have yourself a game of Bar Billiards as well, it's quite addictive...

Nipped in here as doing a tour around Nottingham of the best pubs with my biggest critic (my kid) - bloody good baguette in there ! £3.95 for pulled pork with BBQ sauce and sage and onion stuffing. I went for the full lot, my kid wimp;d out (as usual) and said "i dont like onion". Afterwards i said so what do you think? "oh it was alright apart from the spice in the BBQ sauce" ??!!!??? huh ? there was no spice i could taste ..ah well kids for you. Some very fine Ales as well to be had. But then they havent had to travel far as i commented to...
