Burnt Pig Ale 'Ouse

Visited on Saturday 3rd December 2022 mid afternoon.

Traditional ale house, warm and cosy with 3 small rooms rather than 1 large space, bar is in the first room, fire is in the second.

Went for an Urban Chicken tap takeover so all cask was obviously Urban Chicken; however, normally it's a mix of breweries, styles & ABVs alongside ciders, lager and some decent keg offerings.

The place was absolutely packed but everyone got served, no one cut in, and everyone was friendly, it has a real sense of community.

Getting there from Derby is super easy, the Ilkeston flyer drops you off outside The Crafty One (Health Centre bus stop) the Burnt Pig is down the side street next to The Crafty One (which is also excellent).

We'll definitely be back.

Not local, but don't worry you soon will feel like you are with the ever friendly clientele. Just the best type of pub, good people, good beer, good snacks, dogs very welcome and very reasonably priced drinks. 👍👍

What a find. A friend has been recommending this place for years, but for lots of reasons never been in (don't live locally).

Great beer (quality and choice), friendly locals, friendly staff, warm, good prices, superb pork pies.

We went here while visiting my nephew and his girlfriends 1st home together. My nephew always said he couldn't wait for his uncle (my husband) to go as he would love it. Yes, indeed, my husband loved it.

Absolutely Great ! Fantastic atmosphere !
Great ale and you can buy chips from next door and bring them in with you while you sup ! Marvelous

Great cask ales, fantastic host (Ben)and a lovely log burner to keep you warm on these winter nights. Our favourite place.

Incredible corner local superb craft and cask beer plus unbelievable food fridge

This place has changed ownership recently but it retains its large selection of beers and coders. My companion ordered mango cider which was enjoyed. I chose moretti although the selection of draught beers was tempting.
