Best place to drink real ale in the World. Lonely Planet Guide

Derby’s eatery and pub owners are passionate about food, turning their gastronomic visions into reality. The award winning Jack Rabbits is a real artisan cafe that celebrates great local produce. A local speciality is the Derby Pyclets, flat crumpets, with sweet and savoury toppings. Take your pick from a huge selection of traditional or modern real ale houses – or go on a whistle-stop real ale minibus tour of some of the city’s finest watering holes. You may also find a micro-brewery out back, as well as live unplugged music and lively beer festivals.
