The Curious Tavern, Nottingham

The Curious Tavern is a new adition to the Nottingham drinking scene and comes from the peole who have brough the curious amnnor and Curious Townhosue to Nottignham. Those two offeirngs are more bars while the Tavern is more pub based(thank god). Located at the top of hockley in a verey busy area with lots of other bars around it you enter off the street through an entrace that is dark green and has some low lit lights giving it a sheek look. The bar is on the left as you enetr with a large room with lots of seats and booths and a smaller room with the same. The decor is quite modern but hipster and rustic looking that is quite nice and there is lound msuic playing as this is a more of a night-time venue although I think it does open in the day. The main bar was a lot like a pub and aside from the keg pumps had three ales avaibale which were Harvest Pale, Blue Monkey Gurilla and Springhead Brwery Angel. I had the Angel that was served in a dimple mug and was a whopping £3.80 (a lot for Nottignham) and sadly a trend that more of these bars are starting to adopt that I think people should take a stand agaist but I guess it is a late night veneue and is to be expected. The beer was fairly good and we sat and chateed over the music and young people who were all shouting. I don’t minfd this place too much as I could sit and enjoy a real ale late at night in an enviroment that is as close to a pub as I proabbaly will get at this housr so I can can commend it for that. I wouldent choose to come somewrre like this uslaly but if ever around late at night and you want a decent beer and not have to satnd this is at least a viable option. Not the greatest but the real ale helps and if out with women or late at night I might be tempted to come abck.
