such a great selection of beer both cask and keg. the employees are very knowledgeable, so if they are not sure, just say what they normally like and they will recommend something. View all feedback.

What User dislikes about The Nags Head:
I last visited this place around 2002. It's not changed a bit, a real shame, as it's as ropey today as it was then. Gutrot beer, and scabby old rolls. I even think the drunk Irishman in the corner, is the same bloke. . ....What a tragic state of affairs. . . It's even got that timberframed mess next door, It's as if I never left.
