Meadow Covert

Head out towards Edwalton and you'll find yourself in proper local territory—the kind of pub where regulars actually know the staff's names. The Meadow Covert is a solid Greene King venue that doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is: a reliable neighbourhood pub where you can actually have a conversation without shouting over a DJ. The food's decent enough to make an evening of it, the real ales rotate decently, and there's that unhurried feel you get when a place has earned its reputation through consistency rather than hype. It's the sort of spot where you'll bump into the same faces on a Friday night.
