Small old school bar with nice off street seated area. Has a nice feel. Quality ale. Simple and comfortable. Friendly helpful bar staff
Part of Burton Ale trail this micro pub has very well kept choice of fine ales that constantly change due to this places popularity. Great idea to download Real Ale app to see whats on offer. Although this pub is cosy it has great friendly landlord and is dog friendly
The Weighbridge Inn is a small micropub on Derby Street, Burton; just a few minutes walk from the train station. You might easily miss it (Google Maps has the location wrong): It's located at the corner of Derby Street, in a corner! The pub itself is very small indeed, and the decor - if you can call it that - is hardly inviting. However, there are a number of hand-pumped real ales from smaller breweries on offer, and those are fresh and well-kept. Being tiny and a bit shabby, it's not a place to linger for you and your friends.
Last pint on the way to the station after a great day out. Great beer, very friendly. Highly recommended.
Lovely little pub with warm open fire. Very close to the station and the Travelodge. Selection of ales, ciders and they even do prosecco. Worth a look 👀
