The Pied Bull
Thursday-night pub quiz at The Pied Bull on Northgate Street.
In a paragraph
The Pied Bull is a historic Northgate Street pub, 31-room inn and microbrewery serving house ales and traditional food.
What it's like
The Pied Bull is an old Northgate Street inn that still works as a pub, hotel and restaurant. Low beams and panelling set the scene, while the on-site microbrewery gives beer drinkers a concrete reason to visit.
Old inn with its own brewery
Its 31 rooms, traditional menu and rear garden bring hotel guests, families, visitors and regular drinkers into the same building. That mix makes it useful, though rarely hushed.
Worth knowing
The brewery and old rooms are the best reasons to go. Food and accommodation add convenience, but the building cannot offer the lift, parking or uniform layout of a modern hotel.
