Some sources now suggest that there are now more than 500 micropubs across the UK – and plenty have sprung up in Nottinghamshire.
Micropubs are often owned and operated by individuals and are known for their cozy, intimate atmosphere.
They also often feature a selection of locally-brewed beers and ciders, supporting local breweries and producers.
We researched popular micropubs in Mansfield, Sutton, Kirkby and Hucknall and these were 22 that came up across the four areas.
