The Holy Inadequate - Stoke-on-Trent

Incredible pub! Very happy to have this as my local! The staff are very friendly, the space is very cosy and warm (especially if that lovely log fire is on! and the selection is like no other. Their self-brewed stuff is incredibly good and well priced, too! The Holy Inadequate is always busy, but there is plenty of space hidden away and it's always quick to get served, too. Lovely food options here, too, including their homemade pork pies! CAMRA award winning, and it shows! Price per person: £10–20 Recommended dishes: Range of Beers, Pork Pies

I'm a fan of this pub. Lovely traditional pub nice atmosphere with books and games nearby. Some music when I went in but not overbearing to the point of not being able to talk. Do a lovely pork pie I assume its homemade if not, it's still jolly good. Great selection of beer. Not the easiest location to get to, but other than that, all is great.

After a cold brisk walk along the canal, opening the door on this wonderful drinking hole is a must. A warm real fire welcomes you as well as a selection of real ales, ciders and keg beer. If you are visiting Stoke-on-Trent to sample its drinking delights, add this to your list. Yes it's slightly out of the way, but if you want beers and atmosphere head over to this hidden gem!
