| Royal Oak | A selection of real ales is available in this two sided pub with a half-timbered interior. It claims to be the oldest pub in Chesterfield. There is no communication between the two rooms except via the street, so don't drink in the upper bar on a rainy day or you'll get wet going to the gents! The food is good.
