The Exeter Arms is a charming ale house that combines old and new to create a cosy, relaxed atmosphere. Its many rooms offer plenty of corners in which to settle, while the pub serves good food and locally brewed ales from Dancing Duck Brewery.
Choose the main bar area, find a comfortable sofa at the back, or make your way further inside to a room that appears largely untouched by time and offers a glimpse of how the pub may have looked a century ago. With its nooks and crannies, historic character and strong choice of ales, the Exeter Arms stands out among Derby’s pubs.
It is situated across the River Derwent from Derby City Council House and is busy throughout the week.
