The Beating Heart of Historic Newark
The Prince Rupert is Newark’s true gem – where centuries of history meet warm, down-to-earth hospitality. Its striking medieval timber-framed exterior offers a glimpse into the past, while inside you’ll find cosy corners, a buzzing atmosphere, and even a hidden speakeasy waiting to be discovered.
Expect a fine selection of real ales and hearty, comforting food – perfect after a day exploring the town. On sunnier days, the terraced garden is the place to be.
Rooted in tradition and loved by the local community, the Prince Rupert isn’t just a pub – it’s the beating heart of Newark.
