The Royal Standard occupies a distinctive curved Victorian building from 1862 on the bank of the River Derwent in Derby. After closing in June 2024 under Derby Brewing Company, it reopened later that year under new operator Pub People following an extensive refurbishment, and is now Derby's home for craft and cask ale (one regular plus four rotating cask taps). It hosts a weekly Tuesday open-mic night plus quiz nights and brewers' meet-ups, with a heated courtyard, riverside terrace and an upstairs function room used for events. A reliable grassroots open-mic and small-gig venue right by the river.
