*** REAL ALE NO LONGER AVAILABLE *** Possibly not named after the Shakespearean actor, the Garrick Bar is a long established (1870) public house very close to the centre of the city. It has a pleasingly traditional style front bar and a more modern lounge at the back. There is a collection of barometers to see in the lounge. There is a selection of craft beers available, but no real ale. The food is good and available in both bars. Sports TV is a major feature along with live entertainment, either bands or a DJ, on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
