The Barrel Drop in Nottingham

Fab small pub..lovely atmosphere and a terrific list of beers. Also nearly always stock a lovely Magpie Ale which is always a decent pint.

Lovely little micro pub. Popped in for a pint after work,felt welcome and it was a nice atmosphere. Will be calling in more often when I'm in Nottingham.

Lovely wee Micro Pub with good cask and keg beers… all in a nice chilled atmosphere.

One of the few micro pubs in Nottingham City Centre and obviously a great choice of real ales and ciders. The building is cosy and comfortable and the real ale was a good choice, from IPAs to stout etc. Staff friendly.

Great little pub, close to the theatres. Sadly we didn't have enough time to experience it fully but will definitely visit again!

Fantastic craft ale micro pub. Would definitely recommend.

Small and cosy. Fair selection of unusual beers, normally have at least 1 sour on.

Yes nice drinks and service last night....excellent prices for quality ales

Ace place with ace staff. Magpie beers (which are vegan) are always on but there's always others and tbh the beer selection feels curated rather than merely 'picked'. Only slight issue is it's a bit small but I like that, there are big pubs if you want them. Wonderful place

Cozy place with board games and awesome beers on tap. The bitter was outstanding. Good music and not too loud. Perfect for casual socialising.

Nice atmosphere. Good for conversation with mates. Music not too loud. Good beers.

Enjoyed board games and drinks here. Tiny little pub. Does get busy but has a lovely selection of drinks

Always pleasant with a good array of beers and other drinks if that's not your bag.

Lovely real ale bar ,good service ,well kept ale.

The staff at The Barrel Drop are absolutely amazing!!! The coconut summer from Magpie Brewery is my favorite on tap!! 10/10 would come back again for the laughs, comradery, beverages, and staff! See you next summer TBD!!!

Brilliant little pub, with an unusual selection of beers.

My favourite pub in Nottingham, Elliott was on today, had a great chat with him early doors , he's leaving the buisness nxt week. I wish him all the best in his future endeavours

A very quaint micro pub tucked away in one of Nottinghams small alleys. Good selection of Cask and Keg ales.

Good selections of beer, popular micro pub, we couldn't get a seat. They had a cool games collection too!

Excellent City centre micro pub, with proper ale....

Beautiful little bar, great range of beers and fantastic service from Olivia.

I found this awesome micropub on way to another pub, highly recommended. It’s hidden out the way down Hurts alley. Has a good range of real ales and ciders.

A great little hidden gem within the city centre with great bar staff good beer at affordable prices my only regret is that I could not stop longer but plan a revisit

Amazing little find. Superb real ale pub. Absolutely excellent cask & keg beers on offer, stouts, IPA’s and even a sour on tap. Wine, cider and coffee also available. Friendly staff.

Amazing beer, superb selection of stouts, real ale and even a sour all on tap. Wine and ciders also available. If you love your beer head to this little gem.

Great little place. Nice friendly atmosphere

Proper little pub, cosy with good selection of beers.

Well this is a hidden gem. A vibrant pub hidden down a side alley. Lots of laughter and a great atmosphere. Lots of beer choices so great for the real ale enthusiast. Staff were lovely and friendly. We were served quickly. I also loved the décor. Now I know where it is I'll make sure to go more often.

Was looking for a pub selling craft ales on the first night of a three night stay. Had called into a few other pubs but selection poor. Finally found the Barrel Drop, what a gem of a place, great selection, friendly host, friendly customers and very reasonable pricing. Had intended to return but unfortunately fell ill, but should I be in a Nottingham again it will be my first port of call.

Nice pub with good choice of real ales. A little hidden away off the street in a nice spot.

Fabulous choice of beers, craft and keg

The Barrel Drop is fabulous, we didn’t expect a decent craft beer pub to be in the city centre - what a bonus!

Nice little hidden away bar , for a nice pint

Really cute pub. Real ale and great selection of keg. Gins and whisky good selection.

Always a great selection of beers and friendly staff

Great little place,excellent range of ales from local brewery's.

I was served a beer that looked as though it had come straight out of the river Trent when I took it back the bar staff refused to change it claiming it should be like that I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK THERE AGAIN AND WILL NOT ADVISING ANYONE ONE ELSE TO EITHER

Lovely little pub, comfortable and a good beer range

Wide and good range of beers. There's a choice of games (cards, board games) to play when having a pint of beer or cider etc. Unfortunately the pub was closing quite early on the day of our visit.

Excellent cozy bar hidden away down an alley with good beer selection

Lovely place,good beer and very friendly staff,especially lucy I havent been there for a while since i moved to doncaster but i will visit it again A place i would recommend to everyone Ahh and forgot to mention aimee the owner and the bartender lucy A very friendly and a lovely young lady

Great bar with some interesting craft beers, great service and knowledge from Lewis

Lovely little place we found completely by accident. Good ales to drink and wingback chairs to relax in - we'll be back in winter as it was so very cosy!

As a recent convert to sobriety I was amazed at the selection of no and low alcohol beers,will defo visit again when back in Nottingham

Nice little place for a quick drink.

Well hidden gem right in the city centre. Great selection of beers and the bar staff know more than enough to help you pick the right beer. Can't recommend highly enough. Quiet in the early afternoon but presume it gets busier later.

Firstly we were welcomed warmly and that goes a long way! Super range of beers, ciders and stouts. Aperol spritz for £6.75!!! A hidden gem in Nottingham. Can’t recommend enough.

Relaxed place to have a drink and play games. Friendly staff.

Nice micropub with a good range of beers. Pleasant decor, seating and plenty of board games.

Great selection of beers in a lovely atmospheric setting.

Friendly, no nonsense decent beer. The best pub in Nottingham at the moment. Continues to have excellent beers. Nottingham's top Micro Pub.

Off the beaten track but very nice beer and a quiet corner. They always have a dark beer on tap. 😁

Friendly staff, good choice of soft drinks for non drinkers as well as lots of beer👍

Never knew this place existed hidden away in hurts yard.small but these type of places are.about £4 a pint normal for ln town

Friendly place, excellent drinks and the staff were so good. We all felt welcome from the moment we entered, just like at our own local

Great little place, tucked away for so escape from the crowds.

Great ale selection ! Really friendly helpful staff in a quaint setting, A must for any beer or real ale connoisseur

Easily missed this little drinking hole has a wide selection of real ales it's a must visit while in Nottingham

Really great place and a good choice of beer. We were unlucky with the beer selection on the night and nobody really rated their pints.

Oh, I wish I had known about this place sooner! Great beer, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere and piles of board and card games for you to play, all hidden away in a quiet alley. This is going to be my go to pub from now on in Nottingham.

Cost space down an alleyway. Lots of great beers.

Excellent real ale and craft beer pub tucked away on hurts yard, wonderful atmosphere and tasty beer.

A hidden gem in the city centre- great knowledgeable staff and a superb range of real ale, craft beer and real cider. Highly recommended.

Hidden away is this great gem of a place. A large selection of keg and cask as well as a great selection of bar snacks. Reasonably priced for the town centre too. Will definitely return!

I haven't visited here since the previous owners ran it, so was very pleased to see it still serving excellent quality ales and craft beers. Recommended.

Great selection of beers from across the UK, charming spot, board games to play as well, and great friendly service from the bartender Olivia!

Lovely little pub with great people

A hidden gem! Lovely little place; great games.

Great place whatever your taste in craft beer!

Always a great selection of cask ales and lots of craft ales, it’s the best little pub in Nottingham.

Great little place tucked away, loved it

Excellent selection of beer on offer.

Great little micropub with a lot to offer, the staff were really nice, only tried the one ale but it was perfect, decor was spot-on, roomy enough for our stag party rendezvous.

Always a great pint here in nice surroundings. Staff are always friendly and happy to help. Superb hidden gem

Ok but the beer was not as good as usual, J S Osborne.

A lovely little bar with an astounding selection of craft and real ales. A great atmosphere.

Nice place but its choices of beer are fewer than similar establishments. Staff are very friendly and kind.

First time we have visited here ,it's a lovely place ,will visit again xx

Walked past on the way for a meal. The feel from the windows was quirky, cosy but refined. My curiosity had me heading back afterwards. Everthing is as advertised. Now I'm a little tipsy writing this and really appreciating the space. Music choice is great. Warm voices fill the room. There's boardgames to play for when I inevitably return with others. Beers & ciders are varied and well priced. All of them are well documented on the chalkboard so everyone will end up with a drink to their preference. Love stumbling across places like this.

One of the best pubs in Nottingham. Down the alley Hurts Yard. Enter great Beer Board - selection and range. Friendly, small but with cubby holes. 😍

Love this place. Dog friendly pub, with a great choice of beers.

Great atmosphere and amazing vibe!!! Staff kept everyone happy - friendly ! Highly Recommended

Great little micro brewery bar and many beers to choose from and great prices and still a great atmosphere

Wonderful knowledgeable staff, good vibe, and great selection of beers

Always my first stop when I visit Nottingham. As the owner of a micropub I fully support this wonderful little place. Excellent beers and in great condition, and they sell the same Salty Dog crisps as I do. 😁

Hidden away, we found this place by accident. Great find, it's a very quaint pub with a great range of beers and ciders!

Eldugott sikátorban egy szuper hangulatos hely.

Stunning hidden away micropub in Central Nottingham.

Visited last weekend. Wonderful place. Would visit anytime. The staff was absolutely fantastic and looked after us so well. Good selection of craft beer🍻

Great little bar with an excellent selection of beers.

What a find! Small but welcoming. Great choice of real ales and ciders. Lovely staff

Good range of drinks, pleasant atmosphere

Great little bar that had Polly's on tap...don't need to say much more! Friendly.

Great choice of beers, friendly staff and board games to borrow. A lovely cosy little bar hidden away down an alley, great way to spend an hour or two

A little jewel in the centre of Nottingham.

Nice hidden little gem. Great decore lovely staff and good selection of drinks

Great hidden pub with quality craft beers

Great establishment! Very good Kraft beers and Cider. Great area away from tourist places. If you want to enjoy good drink with good friends, please come here!

Was told to come here by another bartender in another pub. Seems to be a place to get away from tourist trap establishments. It is away from a tourist road. There seems is a great atmosphere to this place. Aimee the the owner and the bartender knows her craft beers and ciders. Small place and very quaint. Great place to sit down and enjoy a pint with friends, family, or by yourself!

Microbar with a great selection, at reasonable prices, with staff who can pour a decent 2/3? Yes, please. Everything about this place is lovely, aside from the actual decor - one star off for literally that, so if you don't care about the wall trappings you'll be in heaven. Even if you do, drop in anyway - the drinks are worth it.
