   Not been to this pub in years but nipped in for a few drinks with my mum and we both loved it. Many Many years ago this was my mums local after finishing work at the greyhound track back in the 60's and it was nice to see some photos on the wall in the pub of which she recognised one of the trainers which brought back memories she was sharing over the drinks. Will definitely be coming back and im sure my mum will

   Always passed this pub but never visited til a couple of weeks back. Really lovely inside (think they had a small refurb) and they have a big outside area too along with a terrace area full of seating. It’s difficult to find a pub in Derby city centre with a good outside area on a nice day so this is one of the best in my opinion. Great selection of beers and great staff too. Will definitely visit here again!

   Update February 2023: Nothing much has changed, this time I ate there. Had the the burger with pulled beef with triple-cooked fries. It was very good, which adds to my recommendation. The number of cask ales is solid: 4 handpumps on the front bar 3 to the back (Different ones, apparently), all well kept. Staff was very nice, too. Original review: Excellent real ale pub on Friar Gate: Fine selection of non-standard hand pumped ales, all well kept. Recommended: Dashingly Dark from the Derby Brewing Company. Friendly staff, great community atmosphere, not too loud. Quite comfy, too. Kept in great shape. Definitely worth a look for a Derby pub crawl, even if it's a short walk from the city centre.

   Went for a drink and a spot of lunch. They have a range of alcohol free beers and the one I tried was pretty good. The food was served pretty fast and tasted nice. The service was good and with few more people inside it would be a lively kind of place. Thanks team Greyhound!

   Food was incredible! probably the best vegan burger I have ever had - closest in both the taste and texture of meat! such a variety of flavours and options. the seating area was peaceful and warm even though outside. will be returning soon!!

   Kind of on the fringes of the city, but still easy to find as it's on the main road. A bit of a hidden gem, the outside looks fairly modern but quite small. However is actually fairly large with possibly one of the best beer gardens in the city. The garden is all season with a retractable roof, lighting and decent heating, it's basically another indoor room during the winter. However when the suns out it's a proper sun trap. The drinks available are all the usual suspects plus DBC real ales, DBC crafted on keg and a decent range of craft cans and bottles from UK, European and American breweries. It's not as all encompassing as Suds & Soda or The Furnace but it's a solid effort and far better than most pubs in Derby. The food is excellent with an emphasis on burgers and smoked/BBQ stuff, the dirty fries are excellent, but be warned that the firecracker chicken ones will make you sweat. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed with a broad age range of customers and a mix of individuals, couples, small groups and larger parties. Worth the walk from the city centre.
