Drinks Menu WITH A MEASURE OF HISTORY Since 1873, when the Nicholson brothers opened the doors to our very first pub, we ve been serving only the finest real ales, aromatic gins and traditional pub fayre. And by Jove, that s not all. Our warm atmosphere and hospitality continues to provide a grand yet homely feeling, exactly as our founder William Nicholson intended many moons ago. Every Nicholson s pub has its own spiffing tale to tell. From the clever chaps and dames who built them, to the quite marvellous heroes, villains and eccentric characters who stood at their bars. Each is a gem set in history. SEARCH NICHOLSON S PUBS NIC_LN16_DRM_3_81_Drinks_Menu_England_PB3_FINAL.indd 1 04/03/2016 15:40
The Original Gin Palace OVER 140 YEARS OF BOTANICAL HERITAGE Our founder, William Nicholson, knew a thing or two about gin and Gin Palaces. He ran the family gin distillery and picked only the finest pubs to serve it in. We keep his tradition alive with our selection of modern, aromatic gins. All flavoured with elusive botanicals and served with the perfect garnish. Mixers Our aromatic gins are perfectly served with your choice of Fever-Tree Tonics. Made by blending the finest botanical oils with soft spring water and the highest quality quinine from the fever-trees of the Eastern Congo. Fever-Tree Tonic is a delicious, natural, award-winning mixer with a uniquely clean and refreshing taste. Designed to enhance the taste of gin rather than mask it.

LEMON TONIC Fresh and packed full of natural citrus. GINGER ALE Made using three fresh gingers, with a flavoursome, dry finish.
