  Absolutely brilliant pub for a big group of rugby league fans! It's a rugby thing that you can have fans from opposing trams mixing together quite happily. I think the staff found this a bit strange but then it is normally a football pub!
  
  Pricey mind- £9.40 for 2 pints of Heineken. Ouch.

  Good for a quick pint, no food, cask roughly 4.50 pounds. Traditional Brit pub you would want to throw some back with your mates. Nothing special but it's a pub - expect only that.

  I've been going to the Nags Head for years, think I was 16 when I had my first beer there as was one of the pubs we go to before going Utd.  I've had some top days and nights in this place, but I can't say I'm a big fan of the Nags Head.
  
  It seems in the last two to three years to be the "in" place for reds to go pre-game, certainly got more popular and they have fair play to them catered to that, playing Utd songs, Courteeners, Stone Roses etc but it all seems a bit contrived for my liking.
  
  So as a bar to go to pre-game it's ok if the above is what you're looking for, I personally prefer the Abercrombie on the left, the Rising Sun on the right or Mulligans a bit further down the road pre-game.
  
  With regards to just watching football it's a really poor place.  I came in here on Tuesday as I didn't go to the game as had a meal arranged in Reds, they had the game on but had music on, one reason for that could be the foreign commentary but I'd rather listen to foreign commentary than a Now 45 soundtrack.

  Don't go here to watch a United game!  Went on a recommendation to watch United v Chelsea. The TV's are old and small and one was even not working. The place is not comfortable but no big deal. What really was bad that after only putting the game on right at kick off and playing loud music at half time the second The third goal went in the sound on all the TV's was turned off and loud blaring music was put on.  Everybody round me wanted to keep listening, you support your team win or lose, but having asked the landlord to turn the sound back on he just very rudely refused. We all had to watch the last 30 mins with very loud bad music blaring at us. Not the way I want to watch my team!!  Will never go back!  Much better places in town to watch.
