Warm, inviting and contemporary pub fit for the modern pub-goer.
Welcome to The Royal Standard, Derby’s premier riverside beer destination. Housed in a beautifully restored Victorian corner building (circa 1862), it offers an inviting blend of heritage charm and modern flair.
After an extensive renovation in 2024, this CAMRA‑endorsed pub presents a refreshing lineup of real ales—with one regular and four rotating cask taps—alongside a heated courtyard and riverside terrace.
Inside, you’ll find an accessible, warm interior complete with fireplaces, disabled access, Wi‑Fi, and comfortable seating, plus an upstairs function room perfect for events . Pop in for quiz nights, open‑mic sessions, brewers’ meet‑ups, or simply to enjoy a top‑quality pint in a storied setting
