Pubs with good food and good beer

[MindlessRockMonkey]

Miller and Carters Penn Cottage, Wolverhampton. On the A449 out of the city. Wonderful steak house. Steaks are the best I have ever had. Cooked as you want them. Varied and regularly changed menu. Well worth a visit or 10.

Have to agree here... My house is 2 minutes drive away! DT_Xtremez_26:

I think it was a Beefeater or similar and changed hands. Glad to hear it's still top notch. They weren't stingy with the portions either.

Good grief - that brings back some memories! - Where a pub crawl could be rudely interrupted by the Dundee bus Friday lunchtime sessions that sort of merged into the weekend Do they still have the old slate floor in the Hendies Bar?

The Beer House, Tallinn. 7 different beers brewed on the premises and good food. Some tables have a beer pump so you can draw your own beer (there’s a meter above the pump). A large beer is 1 Ltr. http://www.beerhouse.ee/

Hell Hunt, also in Tallinn, a couple of beers brewed on site plus a large range of draught and bottled beer. Good food too. http://www.hellhunt.ee/eng/main

Alus Seta, Riga. 5 or 6 draught beers (some from their own brewery) plus quite a few bottled beers. Hearty Baltic food, big portions and very cheap.

Avilys, Kaunas. 2 or 3 home brewed beers and there are a number of beer based dishes on the menu. http://www.avilys.lt/en/content/29

Chateau, Kiev. 6 or so beers brewed on the premises plus delicious sausages. It’s also a good place to sit outside and have a coffee too.

Bierstube, Kiev (not to be confused with Viola’s Bierstube). Large range of draught and bottled beer, also good Ukrainian/German food. It’s nice sit in the semi open air bar on the ground floor.

Caru cu Bere, Bucharest. Set in a traditional beer hall. A couple of Romanian draught beers and some multinational types. The food menu is massive, it goes from breakfast to supper. There is normally some entertainment on and it’s unbelievably cheap. http://www.carucubere.ro/welcome

The way you drink you would have to visit it about 50 times, to sample them all!DT_Xtremez_30:

Frog and Rosbif, Paris. Around 5 or 6 delicious ales brewed on site. Food was good too. Also shows sport on the telly. http://www.frogpubs.com/english-pub.php?pub=2

Porterhouse, Dublin. Loads of good ales, lagers and stouts (way better than Guinness) from their own brewery plus a massive range of bottled beer. Also some guest draught beers. Good food. http://www.porterhousebrewco.com/

Zeughauskeller, Zurich. This is in a former armoury, very nice building. 5 or 6 good draught beers. Excellent sausages. Typical of Zurich beerhalls, if it’s busy you could end up sitting at a table with complete strangers. http://www.trymarket.ch/zeughauskeller/english/frame_start.htm

Zum Kropf, Zurich. Some good draught beers plus nice food in a great building. http://www.zumkropf.ch/en/geschichte.html

Reithalle, again in Zurich. This is a former riding school and stables. A few good draught beers. The menu is small but the food is delicious. http://www.restaurant-reithalle.ch/reithalle.php

Lord Nelson Pub, Geneva. 4 regular and maybe some seasonal beers brewed on site. Hearty food. http://www.lordnelsonpub.ch/

Les Brasseurs, Geneva. 4 or so beers brewed on the premises. You can ask for a beer column (a big tube of beer with a tap at the bottom). http://www.les-brasseurs.ch/e/geneve/index.htm

Au Brasseur, Brussels. They brew their own artisanal beers plus serve a huge range of bottled and draught Belgian beers. http://www.les-brasseurs.com/en/info.html

For those in the Norwich/Coltishall area, a good evening trip to Skeyton is well worth it.

The Skeyton Goat does some good food, and a good selection of beverages to help wash it all down.

Or if you're lost, and end up in Cromer, head to the Red Lion. Ales galore at alright prices. Grubs good too.

 

[Tedlooney]

Marble Arch, Manchester. Large selection of guest real beer plus has its own brewery at the back. Haven't tried the food but the beer is great. http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/15/1519/Marble_Arch/Manchester

Buckinghamshire has a few nice pubs. This one is a lovely old pub in a lovely old village.

The Beer Temple in Amsterdam, 30 draft and around 100 bottled beers. It only sells snacks but the barman recommended a brilliant restaurant just down the road called Haesje Claes, fantastic food and good selection of beer.

Also worth a mention Het Pisner Club (also know as the English @rse). Typical Amsterdam brown pub with peeling brown wallpaper but a good selection of beer.

Both pubs are in this guide

Brauhaus Mitte in Berlin http://www.brauhaus-mitte.de/ I was a bit dubious because it's in a shopping centre but the beer and food were delicious. Only 4 types of beer were on offer but they were good. Also Alt Beliner on Kurfurstemdamm. Great German type food in huge portions and decent beer. It was great seeing the German ladies tackling a full litre of beer.

Mrs Sixty and I had a smashing lunch today at the Dambusters Inn, Scampton Village. Been meaning to go here for a while now since passing it whilst cutting about on a Pinzgauer famil course a couple of years back.

Food was cracking, plentyful and reasonably priced. More importantly the pub had some good real ales on tap. A couple of jars of the Bees Knees ale went down very well.

 

[BillyH]

The Bree Louise, Euston Road London, out the station, hard right, cross road at Zebra, pub is 200 yds on your stbd. bow.

CAMRA Pub (discount to members) Lots of real ale n cider, good grub. A dern sight better than the station eateries and boozers.
