Please Note: Reservations
WE ARE NOT A RESTAURANT WITH A BAR, NOR A GASTROPUB - WE ARE PROUD TO BE A TRADITIONAL PUB WITH GREAT FOOD, THEREFORE WE HAVE ONLY LIMITED SPACE RESERVED FOR DINING. RESERVATIONS ARE WELCOME BY TELEPHONE ONLY ON 01159254049. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO RESERVE BY E-MAIL AS WE ARE NOT AUTOMATED FOR THIS PURPOSE!
Directions
The Victoria is situated at the bottom of Dovecote Lane off the A6005 Queens Road. It stands adjacent to the east �Nottingham bound� platform of Beeston Railway station. The station is well served by local trains from Nottingham,Leicester & Derby. To reach the pub for those arriving from Leicester or Derby trains you need to exit on to Station Road, turn left into Barton Street & left again into Dovecote Lane. Those alighting from Nottingham exit from the westbound platform, proceed along the rear of the platform and over the pedestrian footbridge to drop you nicely into the public bar. For those traveling by bus from Nottingham the No.13 runs a frequent service, the nearest stop being on the corner of Queens Rd & Station Rd.
Car Parking
Parking is an eternal problem at the Vic. We have very limited space in our car-park & immediately outside the building. There is plenty of on-street parking within a few minutes walk but please do not park illegally. Unfortunately, due to the selfishness of a few individuals, we have had unnecessary confrontations with our long-suffering neighbours. Please park sensibly and with due care & consideration. Do not obstruct driveways or the entrance to our car-park!
Better still, leave the car at home and catch a train, bus or taxi.
Children
Well-behaved children are welcome in the non-bar areas of the Victoria until 8.00 only. Although we do not have a children's menu, a number of dishes from our daily menu can usually be offered in smaller portions. Please note, we do not provide highchairs and because of the nature of the building, large prams and buggies are very difficult to accommodate. However there is usually plenty of room in the outside, covered area.
