No 189 in Derby

Decent place and good beers. I found the short haired bar staff sound (doing all the work) but the long haired bar supervisor was unprofessional. She engaged in conversations with regulars about the owner. For example, she spoke about earning a pound more than minimum wage, said the owner smiles but it’s fake and that the owner is thinking about relocating but she need to have a conversation with them about it. She criticised process and also said the owner accursed her of not admitting to their mistakes and of not doing enough and won’t answer her text messages. There was no acceptance of any responsibility. She came across a corrosive force who is out for herself and not a team player or sharing in the vision of the business. She spoke frequently about how hard she works but did absolutely no work in the 1.5 hours that we were there. There were more than 20 people sitting in the bar and hers was the loudest voice. Overall, she seemed very unhappy with the leadership of the business which left a sour taste and in my opinion, this undermines a decent business. P.s - I am a small business owner (brewery and 3 pubs) and I know what a good business looks like and what is needed to make it a success. The criticism she is venting to the customers is unjust. This is a decent business. This level of unprofessionalism will quickly take a business down.

Great social place to be. Plenty of drink choices. Super friendly staff. A great place to call my local. Regular visits from food vans is a nice touch

Really nice micro pub, great character and drinks. Staff attentive and service was good. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

Yet another small "ale" house which is just right up my street, I love these kind of places. Well laid out interior, very good decor with seating outside for a better day and with Covid19 precautions in place. An excellent choice of drinks, ales, beers, wine and gins and excellent service from the welcoming and friendly staff, happy days indeed.

Best place to drink in Allestree by a country mile. Good beers on tap, excellent selection of gins and wine and friendly staff. Couldn't ask for more.
