Real ale pubs are a British staple – and thankfully, there are plenty to choose from. However, with a lot of choices can come lots of confusion! How can you possibly choose between so many options?
Well, a good pub should provide more than a few things for the perfect experience – and it’s quality you should be looking for in your ales as much as different types! If you’re looking for great real ale pubs, be sure to check out the Tickled Trout.
Hand-picked ales to cater to all tastes
Finding a real ale that tickles your tastebuds isn’t always easy. There have been hundreds of new ales pop up since a real ‘boom’ only a few years ago, and at the Tickled Trout, we work with local breweries and brands to bring together a unique selection of drinks.
As you should demand from the best real ale pubs near me, we only ever work with those local breweries and ale experts in Derbyshire and Yorkshire with proven track records. That’s award-winners, hidden gems, fan favourites and more. Beyond this, we always strive to offer you a varied selection of different ales. Things get boring, otherwise – and there’s always something new and refreshing available from talented ale experts nearby.
Derbyshire is real ale country, and Yorkshire have some great real ales too – and that’s why the team at the Tickled Trout are always pleased to present what we know to be the best in local taste.
Fine dining as standard.
When you think of classic pub grub, you’ll probably think of a good roast dinner, meat pies, steak and chips, and, of course, local real ale. But why can’t pub food be fine dining, too? Why can’t it cater to different tastes and dietary requirements?
The Tickled Trout is more than just one of the top real ale pubs in the area. We’ve quickly become a prime purveyor of delicious pub grub, offering a raft of homemade delicacies alongside various drinks.
Our chefs make everything from scratch using only the best local ingredients. That way, you know exactly where the food in front of you comes from and can taste the best ingredients from the area. Even the fish we serve will have been caught the same day and delivered straight to the Tickled Trout!
What’s more, we’re happy to provide meals that cater to different dietary needs. Take a look at our menus and ask about gluten-free or vegan meals, for example, and enjoy a pub meal with a difference.
The best team in the business
It’s true that real ale only tastes so good providing it’s served with care! Trust us – the team at the Tickled Trout knows how to pull a pint or two, and what’s more, we genuinely care about making sure you have access to delicious food and drink Derbyshire can be proud of.
Our team members are widely experienced, friendly, dedicated, and happy to serve! We always look forward to seeing new and old faces and are ready to welcome you whenever you pop in and visit.
Our service even goes beyond the regular table and drinks! If you happen to use our function room, then our team will work closely with you as you prepare for your event, ensuring as best we can that everything goes to plan and suits your needs.
That means you can even celebrate a birthday, anniversary or otherwise with a raft of real ales, wonderful service, and access to pub food to cater to all needs.
