Kean's Head

You'll find one of Nottingham's finest pub interiors here, where Castle Rock Brewery has lovingly restored a stunning Victorian building without stripping away its soul. The ornate ceiling, original tiles, and rich woodwork create the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to settle in for the long haul. The beer selection is outstanding – this is Castle Rock's flagship pub, so expect their full range of perfectly kept ales alongside rotating guests. The Harvest Pale is consistently brilliant, but don't miss seasonal specials when they appear. Food wise, they keep things honest with proper pub grub that doesn't try too hard. It gets properly busy on weekends, but that's half the charm – watching the mix of students, locals, and beer tourists all appreciating the same excellent pint.
