About this Pub

The Brunswick Inn
A strong home-fan pre-match option near Derby railway station, the Brunswick operates a matchday policy of “home fans only,” making it a reliable meeting point for Rams supporters. It serves hot food at lunchtime and into early evening (Tues–Sat 12:00–19:00; Sun 12:00–16:00), helpful for lining up before typical 12:30 or 15:00 kick-offs. As Derby’s on-site microbrewery tap, it offers an extensive cask selection including core Brunswick beers, so groups can enjoy quality pints before heading to Pride Park. Its proximity to the station makes it an easy first stop for those arriving by rail on matchdays.

Been going to this local pub for over 20 years, Good range of flat ciders upto 16. Had 8 when I visited. Also their cheesy chip butties are amazing. Its a very well known real ale pub and a must visit if your in the area.

Didn't try the food but what a fantastic pub. Superb architecturally, the ale in perfect condition and great range including their brewery output. A myriad of different rooms for all comforts.can't recommend highly enough especially for the discerning drinker or otherwise.

What a fantastic real ale pub with a great selection of beers, with a variety brewed on site, and all at a very reasonable price particularly if you’ve got a CAMRA membership. Tried several beers all of which were very tasty and exceptionally well kept. The pub has a traditional feel with several different rooms, and railway associated memorabilia. Staff were very welcoming and helpful with recommendations. Food is available although I only managed the delicious Cheese and Onion Cob. Well worth a visit and handy for both the railway and bus stations.
