A few pints of deya and a pint of very well kept Bass, old skool boozing at it's finest, well done staff and all.
Great independent pub, beer always spot on, something generally to suit all tastes - On this occasion I had 3 pints of London Pride which had been kept very well (otherwise I wouldn't have had 3 pints). My wife had lime and soda. Prices were very good, you don't feel ripped off. Pub very clean. According to my wife the ladies toilets very clean. Oh we also had a pork pie between us which came via a decent local butcher. With thanks 🍻👏🏻
Took my mixed race partner here.. they refused to serve her. Absolute racist staff. The land lord and land lady are really nice but they need to employ non racist staff. Every person of colour should go to this pub and make them serve them. Every one irrespective of colour deserves the right to go to a pub and enjoy a drink. This staff behind the bar need to wake up and accept the diversity of this country. My partner is mixed race and was born I. This country…. She’s been banned from this pub and the landlord and gave no explanation as to why she was banned. Racist to the extreme.
The Devonshire Arms is a cozy, quaint little neighbourhood pub just a few minutes from Burton station. The real ale selection is adequate, and the decor typical for a community boozer. Friendly atmosphere and that just-feels-like-old-times kick make this a place to spend a nice evening. Nice staff, too. Solid option in a good real ale town.
Proper pub, this gives you a large selection of beer and lager and cider. It’s a nice place to be. The staff are nice and serve quickly. The beer garden is a good size, and during Christmas time it’s absolutely rammed. I shall return.
