About This Pub
Ah, Arnold Liberal Club – it's one of those hidden gems in Nottingham that really comes alive for special occasions. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, it's smashing for throwing parties; folks are raving about the function room upstairs, which you can nab for free with just a £50 deposit that comes back if you leave things as you found them. The food's a real highlight too – think delicious catering that had one group absolutely chuffed at a surprise birthday do. And the events? Well, the 80s nights and live music sessions sound like a proper good time, getting everyone on their feet and enjoying the atmosphere. On the flip side, though, the website's a bit underwhelming; it's not packed with info, so you might end up playing phone tag to sort out the details. Plus, with hours that seem mostly evenings and weekends, it might not suit if you're after a spontaneous midweek pint. Overall, it's a solid choice for a community feel and budget-friendly fun, but it'd be even better with a bit more polish and consistency – still, I'd say give it a go if you're planning a do with mates; you might just have a brilliant time!
Pros and Cons
Pros
-
The function room is absolutely brilliant for hosting parties and events – it's free to hire with just a small deposit, which you get back if everything's tickety-boo.
-
The staff are so friendly and welcoming; they really go the extra mile to make your night special, as plenty of folks have mentioned in their reviews.
-

-
It's a solid spot for social gatherings, with plenty of space, tables, chairs, and even room to decorate as you please.
Cons
-
The website is a bit basic and not very informative – it feels like a standard setup that hasn't been fleshed out much, so you might need to ring them for details.
-
Operating hours seem a tad limited and inconsistent, mostly evenings and Sundays, which could be a hassle if you're hoping for a midweek meet-up.
-
While the overall rating is a respectable 4.2, it's clear from the reviews that not everyone's experience is perfect, even if the recent ones are glowing.
-
There might not be as much variety in events or activities as some larger venues, so if you're after something more dynamic, it could fall a bit short.

Had my 50th birthday in the function road brilliant room friendly staff made my night amazing would highly recommend
Great room upstairs for parties. Free room hire. Deposit of £50 is required, you get it back after the party or a day later, if everything is ok and no damages.
Bar is adequate for room. The dance floor is big enough, as it's as long as the room. Plenty of tables and chairs. You can decorate the walls and tables to how you want. DJ is a great young man, you send him a play list and he also can play something you ask for. You can have your own DJ if you want. The one we used at the Liberal club, you obviously have to pay for.
There is coloured lights on the DJs system.
The family who run it, are a great laugh and very helpful, especially at the end, they help to tidy up.
Had my Wife’s 40th birthday party last night. The venue was brilliant with great facilities, all of which was really clean. We all had an amazing time. Room was free to hire. I would recommend to anyone to hold a function here
