The Lincolnshire Poacher has been part of Nottingham's real ale drinking scene for so long that it's easy to forget that it only opened in the late 1980's, rising from the shell of the Old Grey Nags Head which had been closed by Shipstones.

In partnership with Wainfleet brewers, George Bateman & Sons Ltd, the 'Poacher' quickly earned a reputation as one of THE places in Nottingham for quality and choice of ale, a distinction it has never lost.

The large public bar is complimented by a large outside high walled smoking area, whilst the upstairs function room can seat up to 40.

Up to a dozen cask beers are on sale at any time, including several from the Bateman's range.
