With a bar that measures just 15ft by 7ft, The Nutshell proudly holds the title of smallest pub in Britain as confirmed in the Guinness Book of Records.
Located in the heart of the historic Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, The Nutshell has been proud to serve customers jostling for a place at the bar since it first started serving beer in 1867.
Now a major tourist attraction for local and worldwide visitors, The Nutshell continues the tradition of serving some of the region’s finest ales, and providing a bar not just full of customers, but interesting historical items, photos and memorabilia. From a mummified cat and currency notes on the ceiling to historical photos, military items and a plane propeller on the walls there is much to view and talk about while you enjoy a drink.
We invite you to sample the cosy experience of drinking in The Nutshell, on a busy night elbow to elbow with our locals and visitors.
