Reviews of micropubs that I have visited in Derbyshire – at present covering small watering holes in Allestree, Belper, Chaddesden, Derby, Duffield, Mickleover, Long Eaton, Ripley, Sawley, and Spondon.
The Hoppy Place, Chaddesden
A visit to the Derby suburb of Chaddesden where a former coffee shop is now serving up a different form of liquid refreshment. Now a micropub, I checked out The Hoppy Place.

Ripley’s Little Ale House
Situated in the Derbyshire market town of Ripley is a town centre micropub that is aptly named Ripley’s Little Ale House. Little by name, but is it little for everything else?

The Hoptimist, Spondon
I was feeling rather hoptimistic about my latest micropub adventure as I set foot in the Derby suburb of Spondon to visit The Hoptimist, a former hardware store that now provides the tools for a relaxing drink or two.

The Pothole, Allestree
Having visited one of Allestree’s two micropubs it was time to visit the second small watering hole, actually this was the first to open in the suburb – The Pothole.

No. 189, Allestree
Named after its building number, the No. 189 is one of two micropubs currently operating in the Derby suburb of Allestree. I’d enjoy a warm evening here in June 2023 checking out this small boozer.
