The UKs smallest pub.

Not sure what I can add that hasn’t already been said.

I visited the pub recently after living in the area for some 20 years!

It has a lot of character and the barman was very knowledgeable and happy to discuss the history of the pub and answer the many questions I had!

Some things to look out for include a mummified cat and rat!!

If you’re in Bury St Edmunds then you have to pop in here!

The Nutshell is reported to be the smallest pub in Britain and having been there I can believe it. It's small, really small but as they say, size doesn't matter. The service is friendly and they serve a very good pint of IPA. Toilets are accessible by a steep flight of stairs. If you're in Bury St Edmunds, it's well worth a visit

Came across this by chance, said to be the smallest public house in the UK. Quirky ,unusual, check out the cat and rat hanging from the ceiling. Kevin the manager is a very friendly character and knowledgeable about the pubs history. Would recommend a visit if in the area.

Great place! It's outside drinking only but the bartenders are always super on top of it coming out and checking on people. You order inside grab your drink and meet new people. There is a mummified cat inside above the bar for those of you who are faint of heart. Also it is the smallest pub in the world!

It's got a lot of character in a little space. No food, just tasty beverages that the bartender has to bring out to you in the seating area outside. Loved it!
