It's a bit odd walking in here, because it's had a slightly northern Engliand gastro-makeover, but isn't becoming of a country pub in the middle of nowhere; but when you get past this, the staff are charming, and the food is surprisingly good. They had London Pride, 2 local ales (Beaver), and something else on tap. Recommend.

We were visiting a friend in Castle Donington and her neighbour recommended this for a bite to eat…read more It's a 10 minute walk from C.Donington and has a lovely location in the middle of the village. It truly is a real village pub with great beer, good food and a friendly welcome. The landlady was very polite and we felt at ease when asking for food. Only had a sandwich but that was plentiful and tasty. Will definitely go back there when in the area and due to it's location if I can blag a ticket to the festival next year, will reside there for liquid refreshment. Nice area out front to sit when sunny ( as it was when we were there). Not sure what could be improved, but maybe they could consider letting the odd room for B&B.

Yes it helps to have a Brit on the team but for the most part I was able to hold my own. If you are there in the summer, you must enjoy the patio. This pub boasts a neat location offering a bit of waterside dining and drinking in the Midlands.

The Nags Head in is situated on the 'hilltop' in Castle Donington, conveniently near the airport…read more Great for fans of aircraft, as it is literally a stones throw from the airport path making it an ideal place to stop off for a drink after a tour around. Upon first visiting the pub, I noticed an instantly friendly family atmosphere. The decor is all modern, with a lovely calming fish tank in the wall & local pictures such as the Donington Race Track. The pub has a restuarant attached to it, which I am yet to try. It looked very busy, with people waiting for a table which is always a good sign. The food smelt good as well! The drinks were at the going rate for the area, however I think it has a lot more to give than other local competition with wooden decking (along with spotlights) on the front which would be great to sit around in the summer.
