The Moon & Stars in Bulwell

Ah, The Moon & Stars in Bulwell – it's one of those neighbourhood pubs that has its charms, but isn't without a few hitches, if you ask me. On the upside, the staff are usually spot on, being friendly and keeping everything tidy, which makes for a comfortable spot to unwind. I love the idea of having a disco and pool table on hand, plus that outside area for when the weather's playing ball – it's just the ticket for a casual get-together or a bit of banter with friends. And from what I've heard, their buffets for events are spot on, really helping folks feel at ease during tough times. But, let's be honest, it's not all roses; there've been tales of staff being a bit firm on rules, like not letting you use the loos without a purchase, which could leave a sour taste. Plus, it might not be buzzing every night, as it can get quiet mid-week, so if you're after a lively crowd, you might want to plan ahead. All in all, it's worth checking out if you're local, just go in expecting a mixed bag and you'll likely have a decent time.
