“Every city and town has at least on pub like this, and here is Nottingham’s! Aimed at the late teens/ early 20’s and the 35 years+ crowd trying to recapture their youth, the first thing that will hit you when you enter The Square is the noise; this is not a venue to go to be sociable with friends.

Spread out over two levels, lager and shots are par for the course along with large groups on the look out for a meat market. This venue is a good spring board to a heavy night out but not if you are after a few chilled out drinks with some friends!”

Part of the national chain of pubs, this is bang in the centre of Nottingham opposite Tantra night club and only a short walk from the Hockley area which contains many more bars. There is nothing at the Nottingham Hogs Head you wouldn’t expect with the usual lagers, pub food and a bit of pool.

Probably more suited to a few drinks during the day than night time drinking, although a worthy pit stop if you are making your way across town.

The Slug & Lettuce in Nottingham is part of the Cornerhouse leisure complex north of Nottingham’s city centre, surrounded by loads of bars and great palces to eat. The Slug & Lettuce itself is fairly typical of the chain with a mixture of leather couches and plenty of seating and standing space, serving food late on in to the night.

The door policy is not too strict on a Friday and Saturday and decent sized groups shouldn’t struggle too much getting in early on although it can get very busy as the night progresses.

The Castle Pub in Nottingham can be found directly opposite the entrance to Nottingham castle and is a popular venue for after work drinkers, especially on a Friday evening. The seating area outside makes for a pleasant urban drink on a summer’s evening after work, on a Saturday afternoon or at night over the weekend!

The Castle Pub does not try to break any new ground, serving the usual range of lagers, bitters and wine you would expect at most pubs as well as the traditional pub meal fare. What it does offer is plenty of room inside and outside to enjoy your drink, in a friendly but lively atmosphere. It also acts as a great stop off point after Ye Old Trip to Jerusalem as you work your way in to Nottingham city centre on your way to more Nottingham bars.

It’s not a final venue or somewhere you stay for more than a couple of drinks, but as a stopping off point or a getting warmed up there are few better.

Yates Wine Lodge has been around for years and you know what you are going to get; cheap drinks, large groups and a DJ in the corner. On the edge of Nottingham’s market square, Yates is a great starting point for a night out and somewhere you can settle down for a few drinks before you start move on to the next venue. Not a great place to take someone for a first date, but if you are part of a group it is an ideal venue.

“Part of the national J D Wetherspoon chain of pubs, this is in a great location just off the City’s market square. Only a short walk away from numerous others bars and pubs, the cheap drinks and food are a magnet for many drinkers.

With little or no door policy in place, no matter what you are wearing or how many of you there are, a few cheap drinks here are always on the cards.

Not a venue to stay for too long, but a good choice to get warmed up.”

“The Pit & Pendulum is a popular haunt for the darker side of Nottingham’s drinkers. If you wear a lot of black, have long hair and listen to any type of music with the word ‘metal’ in it you will find yourself at home in the Pit & Pendulum.

On the flip side, it is probably best avoided if you have got yourself togged out in trousers, shirt and shoes or your best dress, however if you want to go out for some drinks with friends in an open atmosphere with out feeling like you have been shoe-horned in to a sardine tin, you could do worse than the Pit & Pendulum.”

“Housed in a deconsecrated church, P&P has become the party landmark of Nottingham. Setting and atmosphere come alive on the weekend and any size of or type of event can be catered for to create the ultimate night out.

The bar’s party feel is enhanced by its adaptability. Private party areas range from cosy ‘Snug area’ overlooking the whole church, to favourite weekend spot the ‘Altar area’ that looks out over the dance floor. Up to 200 private guests can be accommodated upstairs, groups of 12 in our booths or we can arrange sit down meals for groups.”
