About This Pub
When you step into the Aardvark, it's hard not to feel the warmth straight away – it's one of those pubs that just draws you in with its inviting atmosphere and staff who go out of their way to make you comfortable. I love how it's got that perfect mix for a casual evening, whether you're up for a game of darts, sinking a few pints of something tasty like Hobgoblin ale, or watching the footie on their impressive big screen. The drinks selection is spot on, and the food, like their pies and chips, often hits the mark without costing a fortune. On the downside, a few folks have mentioned that portions aren't always as generous as you'd hope, and there might be the occasional mix-up with orders, which can be a bit disappointing. All in all, it's a real gem that's come back strong since reopening, and I'd recommend giving it a go if you're in Coventry – just keep those little niggles in mind for a balanced night out.

Great venue since reopening! The staff were incredibly friendly. So glad to see this place's doors open again. The aardvark is in great nick and I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to come and see for themselves! I'll definitely be back!
Great atmosphere, good laugh.
" bar maid " very fast.
Nice place to chill have a drink, play some darts or pool.
Not many of these gems around
The Aardvark is a nice public house to visit. It is well laid out and quite spacious. There is a good selection of wines, beers and spirits. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Sports TV is part of what's on offer and there is an immense screen at one end of the bar area. There is also a games room which has two pool tables.
Street car parking is close to the pub and it is free!
Go on, give The Aardvark a try!

Stopped here for a bite to eat and a couple of beers before watching Coventry Rugby. We had very good pie and chips washed down with Hobgoblin ale. All excellent.
A nice pub with a pool table, TVs and a decent menu with reasonably priced food. But I must say the portion of chips served with the burgers are very small. And they seemed to have forgotten the spring onion on the chicken wings. But even though they were very tasty and at a good price too.
Friendly staff and wide range of customers from students to OAPs.
