Back in Derby itself, the city's fine Cathedral and Museum provide a quieter cultural counterpoint to the rolling landscapes outside town, making the hotel a natural launchpad for both countryside days and city wanderings.
Mr Grundy's Tavern and the Beer Garden
After a busy day, the hotel's main bar area, Mr Grundy's Tavern, invites guests to unwind. The tavern serves real ales, a selection of wines, and good food, offering a relaxed spot to settle into the evening. In the colder months, the sofas in front of the roaring open log fires make the tavern feel especially welcoming, while warmer days invite drinks through the French windows and out into one of Derby's biggest beer gardens. Either way, the staff are ready to offer a warm welcome, whatever the weather.
Practical Considerations
The hotel provides disability access to the pub and tavern, along with a disability toilet on site. Food at Mr Grundy's Tavern is served six days a week, with the restaurant closed on Mondays and offering evening service from Tuesday.
