Nottingham
The Lincolnshire Poacher opened as a Castle Rock pub in the late 1980s, rising from the shell of the Old Grey Nags Head. The Poacher quickly earned a steadfast reputation for quality and choice of cask beer – a distinction it has never lost.
Perched halfway up Mansfield Road, the Poacher is a comprised of a main bar area, a snug, and a conservatory leading to a walled beer garden.
Today, the pub still offers the laidback atmosphere of a classic alehouse, combined with the variety of choice you would expect from any Castle Rock pub. Alongside a vast drinks menu, the Poacher cooks up hearty homemade meals every day.
