This place has history, hundreds of years of it. Whether the crusades tales are true or not, it's so cool to sit in ancient cave pub . The ales are always great, too. It's a touristy place, but great.

Nikos Taskos

Great choice for local ales - stuff is more than eager to explain the different ales and offer shots of each one for you to try. Worth a visit!

Iván Farías

This pub claims to be the oldest in England . True or not, still a fantastic place to meet with your friends and share a beer . PS: get the fish and chips !

Andrew Saffrey

Pub nestled in the rockface of the cliff below Nottingham Castle . Ignore the tourism hype and enjoy the genuinely good beer , including the eponymous Old Trip.

Nauris Circenis

Feels very authentic . Beers and ales are always great. Food is decent, but one should go here for beers and conversation. Atmosphere is amazing.

Carl Griffin

Lovely warren of cave rooms. Great real ale .

Fouad Husseini

This is one of the best places I've been to with authentic quality lager . Certainly worth a visit at least once! The atmosphere is amazing and the people are fun

Zoltán Gyurácz

Great porters and IPAs . Just popped in for a quick beer but the atmosphere caught me immediately. The oldest pub is the oldest pub . ;)

Jon

Wonderful, unique building with a good selection of local beers at good prices. Love it.

Lee Nixon

In the Rock Lounge , visitors can see the Cursed Galleon, a model ship that brings death to anyone who cleans it. The ghost of Roger Mortimer, lover of Queen Isabella, is said to haunt the caves .

Try the ales , all great. Come here each time we are in Nottingham. Never found it too busy & always manage to get our table hidden in the window.

Serge Vdovychenko

Nice pub . You need to remember a number of your table to order food (some of them don't have any). The caves tour in the castle is highly recommended.

Jon

Bit of a tourist trap, but understandably so. It's fantastic. Very atmospheric, and good cheap beer

Scott Riley

Terrace outside, comfy , beautiful place with nice beer and lovely staff x

Jonathan Evans

It's a lovely building with bags of character but that has translated to quite high beer prices. Definitely worth a visit but you wouldn't stay all night

Whit Maull

Can't beat the old world charm here. Low ceilings, caves , ghosts , swords and beer .

Nihan Cosgun

Smells history and beer in every corner Grab a beer and enjoy your day in Nottingham

Marc Pérez

Pub with a lot of character, really nice people. A few local ales on tab and food is also pretty good!

Cate T

Amazing setting and lots of history. Don't go for nachos - way too small for what they cost! Fish and chips looked great.

Simon Hamer

One of the oldest public houses in Britain. Great selection of ales . When I worked in Nottingham centre in the "hobbit building" we regularly held bored meetings in there. We went when we were bored.

Hreodgarcynn

One of England 's oldest pubs - cut into the cliff wall of Nottingham Castle . And with its own brand ale too.

Simon Cheadle

Great selection of ales . Amazing building and history. Definitely worth a visit

Aida C

Interesting place to show people. Just next to the castle so handy if you are visiting it!

Tim Dawson

Would echo other tips. Fab atmosphere and have to say the Pimm's is great whatever the weather! Recommend the haunted snug if main bar areas are busy!

Clau HL

Very nice and authentic . Lots of history and the prices are good ✌️

Jules Chambers

Very busy tourist attraction , be prepared to wait at the bar . Good beer , try the OldeTrip, & good food.

Paul Wilkinson

Look out for the pregnancy chair - legend has it that women sitting on it get pregnant soon after.

Jaco van Diggele

You realy want to see the museum room ! But don't forget to check the Castle and the caves as well .

creattivina
