Totally Tapped - Craft beer specialist

You'll find yourself on Chilwell Road in Beeston, pushing through the door of what feels like a proper local's spot rather than somewhere trying too hard. The vibe is unpretentious—wooden floors, a bar that actually knows what they're pouring, and the kind of place where regulars genuinely outnumber tourists (of which there aren't many). The rotating taps mean you're never drinking the same thing twice, and the staff actually engage with what they're recommending rather than just pulling a pint. It's the sort of pub where conversation happens naturally, whether you're solo at the bar or with mates.
