Compà Beeston
1st
4.9(402 reviews)
97/100
Compà Beeston is a charming Sicilian spot that's all about heartfelt, authentic grub and a welcoming vibe that'll make you feel right at home.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is incredibly authentic and delicious, with fresh Sicilian flavours that make every meal feel like a trip to Italy.
  • The warm, family-run atmosphere is just lovely – it's like being welcomed into someone's home with genuine care and a big smile.
Areas for Improvement
  • The operating hours appear a bit limited and confusing, mostly seeming to focus on Sundays, which might not suit everyone’s schedule.
  • It's listed as currently closed, which is a shame – that could mean you have to check ahead to make sure it's open when you plan to go.

Great little restaurant. Very authentic, as you’d expect run by a Sicilian family. Food was fantastic, very tasty and perfectly cooked. All 3 of us loved it. Well worth a visit.

94/100
Bistro 66 in Beeston is a delightful little gem with cracking food, a homely vibe, and friendly faces, though it has its moments with service speed.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely delicious – think fresh pizzas, tasty Mediterranean dishes like chicken souvlaki and hummus, with generous portions that leave you feeling satisfied.
  • They've got a really warm and welcoming atmosphere, inspired by the Mediterranean, making it feel like a cosy spot for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a tad slow at times, like when it takes a while to place an order, even if the staff are lovely overall.
  • It's walk-ins only before 3:30pm, which might be a bit of a hassle if you're hoping to book ahead for a specific time.

93/100
Totally Tapped is a cracking little craft beer haven in Nottingham, with an ace selection and a warm feel, though it can be a squeeze and might not suit everyone straight away.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Fantastic selection of craft beers, real ales, ciders, and more – there's always something exciting to try, including alcohol-free and vegan options from local and international breweries.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making it easy to settle in and enjoy your visit.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can feel a bit intimidating when you first walk in, as it has that locals-only vibe which might put off newcomers.
  • Occasionally, the beer glasses aren't as spotless as they should be, which is a bit disappointing.

The Berliner
6th
4.6(462 reviews)
92/100
The Berliner is a lively little gem in Beeston, serving up cracking cocktails, fun events, and a warm welcome, though the food might not steal the show.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely buzzing and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed evening with friends.
  • They've got a fantastic selection of drinks, including sophisticated cocktails and affordable deals like two for £12, which really hit the spot.
Areas for Improvement
  • The pizzas are a bit underwhelming – they're alright, but they could do with some improvement to match the rest of the experience.
  • The garden area feels a tad bleak, especially on a sunny day; it's functional but doesn't quite live up to the indoor vibe.

Martin Kearns
Chicken, Stilton and brocoli pie absolutely detectable, amazing! Staff are welcome and a nice friendly atmosphere 😊 Mondays currently 2 for £20 on mains - well worth the money

Tried this pub for the first time as we usually go to The Star. It’s a nice friendly vibe pub with good range of ales, beers and spirits. Not a large pub but spacious enough. Wasn’t really busy when w...

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Fantastic selection of real ales at affordable prices, making it a top choice for beer enthusiasts.
  • Friendly and knowledgeable staff who are always ready to chat about the brews on offer.

Great pub for real ales and not expensive either. Cannot comment on food as never eaten the food.
ThePiechop
Proper pub with decent beer, friendly staff and a cute little beer garden. Live music on Saturday nights always has a great atmosphere.
Oliver KF
What a miserable host. Looking forward to visiting for the first time in fifty years since I went to the local college, but she couldn't wait to get her out of the door to close. Shame

Jolly Anglers

4.3(150 reviews)
85/100
The Jolly Anglers in Beeston is a welcoming community pub with a cracking atmosphere, friendly vibes, and a top-notch beer garden – ideal for a casual pint or family outing.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • It's got a fantastic beer garden that's brilliant for families or anyone wanting to enjoy the outdoors, with plenty of shade and space for kids.
Areas for Improvement
  • There's been some talk of a dodgy reputation based on hearsay, which might put some folks off, even if it's not backed up by most experiences.
  • The operating hours seem a bit inconsistent across different sources, so it's worth double-checking to avoid any surprises.

Didn't eat here called in for a drink. The staff were friendly and welcoming it's great beer garden too brilliant for those of you with children. Can definitely recommend this place 😀

A true local community pub. Clean, wonderful staff managed by Paula, one wonderful, always on the go, energetic landlady. Well worth a visit!

Riverside Bar
20th
4.3(125 reviews)
85/100
Riverside Bar is a charming little spot in Beeston with unbeatable riverside vibes, friendly service, and wallet-friendly prices, though it does have a somewhat worn-around-the-edges feel that keeps it from being perfect.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The stunning riverside location right on the banks of the River Trent makes it a real treat for a peaceful pint with gorgeous views.
  • Prices are spot on – you'll find some cracking deals on drinks and food, making it easy on the wallet for a night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • The decor inside and out can feel a tad shabby and dated, which might not live up to expectations for a fancy evening.
  • The kitchen's only open from Wednesday to Sunday, so if you're after a bite on a Monday or Tuesday, you might be out of luck.

The Beeston Social is a buzzing bar in Beeston with cracking cocktails, warm service, and a lively feel, though it can get a bit hectic on busier evenings.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktails are absolutely spot on – a real highlight for anyone after a refreshing drink.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit too crowded and noisy on Friday and Saturday nights, which might not suit if you're after a quiet chat.

The Malt Shovel
22nd
4.2(493 reviews)
84/100
The Malt Shovel is a welcoming local pub in Beeston with cracking food and a cosy feel, but it's worth keeping an eye on the prices to avoid any surprises.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are really friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • The food's often spot on – think tasty pub classics and some more adventurous options, especially since the new owners stepped in.
Areas for Improvement
  • Portion sizes can be a bit stingy, leaving you wanting more after the meal.
  • Prices are on the higher side for what you get, with some meals and drinks feeling overpriced, like that £9 sausage or hefty bills with service charges.

The Chequers Inn
23rd
4.2(127 reviews)
83/100
The Chequers Inn is a cracking old-school pub in Nottingham with lively live music, friendly vibes, and affordable drinks – a solid spot for a relaxed evening.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The live music is absolutely brilliant, especially on Saturday nights – it's a real highlight that gets everyone in the mood.
  • Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere make it feel like a proper local spot where you can relax and chat.
Areas for Improvement
  • One recent mention of it being temporarily closed was a bit disappointing, as it might catch you off guard if you're planning a visit.
  • A few niggles like the toilet doors needing better locks – nothing major, but it could make the place feel a tad more polished.

Nurseryman

Verified
4.0(1945 reviews)
80/100
The Nurseryman in Beeston is a cracking pub for enjoying solid grub and a laid-back atmosphere, though the service isn't always on point.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is absolutely spot-on – think juicy burgers, succulent steaks, and classic pub dishes that are tasty and come in decent portions, all at reasonable prices.
  • Staff are generally lovely and welcoming, making you feel right at home, especially when they're handling groups or special requests with a smile.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit hit-and-miss; one experience mentioned it being rude and passive-aggressive, which might put a dampener on things if you're unlucky with the day.
  • It seems like there could be off days, as not every visit lives up to the high praise, so you might want to keep expectations in check.

  • Affordable drinks that make it easy on the wallet, perfect for a casual night out.
  • Lively atmosphere with live sports on the telly, plus fun activities like pool, darts, and karaoke to keep things entertaining.

  • The crowd might feel a tad cliquey or rowdy in places, which could put off those after a more relaxed setting.

The Beekeeper
26th
3.9(1800 reviews)
78/100
The Beekeeper in Beeston is a cosy, family-oriented pub that's full of charm and great deals, but it does have a few niggles like inconsistent food and occasional messiness that keep it from being perfect.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and really go the extra mile to make you feel welcome, especially if you're with little ones – it's like they've got a knack for sorting out comfy spots and keeping everyone happy.
  • It's a brilliant spot for families, with that Wacky Warehouse indoor soft play area where kids can run wild while you relax with a refreshing drink, like a flavoured gin or spiced rum.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some folks have mentioned the food can be a bit hit-or-miss – things like burgers seeming cooked from frozen or meals that feel microwaved, so it might not always live up to expectations for a proper pub grub experience.
  • It can get quite noisy with large groups or rowdy crowds, which might spoil the vibe if you're after a quiet chat, as one person noted having to move tables due to foul language.

The Last Post - JD Wetherspoon
27th
3.8(2025 reviews)
76/100
The Last Post is a solid Wetherspoons spot in Beeston – affordable, spacious, and full of character, though it has the occasional slip-up like any pub worth its salt.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's incredibly affordable, with massive portions like their breakfast for a steal, making it a top pick for a budget-friendly meal or drink.
  • The place has a lovely historical feel, being a former post office, which adds a bit of character and charm to your visit.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes can be hit or miss, like the burgers that were a bit dry and overcooked in one go, so it's worth being picky with your order.
  • You might hear the odd clatter from the kitchen or bottles, which can disrupt the vibe if you're after a totally peaceful pint.
