Quick info
About The Creaky Floorboard
The Creaky Floorboard is a small pub on Kedleston Road in Derby, set away from the town centre. It keeps a straightforward, unassuming setup, with a back seating area that opens up in sunny weather and a good selection of ales and beers behind the bar. Dogs are welcome, and the space runs on a walk-in basis for those stopping by throughout the week. A black-and-white tile floor and a quiet back room give the place its character, and the team keeps the drinks list focused on cask ales and lagers rather than a long cocktail menu.
