Derbyshire Food & Drink

While most micropubs are located in former retail units, The Creaky Floorboard in Derby is situated on the ground floor of a residential building. Let’s check out this home-turned-micropub.

One of the latest examples of a derelict building being brought back into use, time to enjoy a drink at Belper House micropub.

In what would be my first new micropub visit for 2½ years I visit The Hole In The Wall, a former bank turned small watering hole in the Derby suburb of Mickleover.

Formerly a derelict building but now home to a new cafe brought to you by the team behind the Grand Cafe Caruso in Derby. Time to pay a visit to Cafe Villabella.

With the easing of lockdown many small hospitality businesses are now able to open up, initially with outdoor services. One such venue to reopen is The Brunswick Inn in Derby, and I caught up with them to find out how the pandemic has affected the business and his hopes for the re-opening.

The market town of Belper in Derbyshire now houses a small number of micropubs. Right by the town’s market place is Belper’s first micropub – The Angels.
