Prospect Hotel, Douglas (Prospect)

You want to visit - You have this in

Opened in 1857, in the finance sector of the island's capital, this pub contains one large room. It has different sections, some with pictures of the law profession reflecting its proximity to the law courts. There are eight handpumps in two banks of four on separate sides of the bar. Guest ales change regularly. Wednesday is quiz night and occasionally real cider and perry are sold. A rear section is known as the "Library" and is full of bookshelves and a large screen TV, which is not always on, can make this area a quieter zone or function area for meetings.

Visitors be aware that closing times vary significantly on different weekday nights.

Accessibility is only via steps at the front door and there is internally a step to access different sections. There is however a disabled toilet at the rear area of the pub though wheelchair access to the pub is very difficult.

Historic Interest

Ornate woodwork ceilings map out the original layout before refurbishment in 1998.

Asset of Community Value

Substantial building in the financial district. Opened in 1857 but was gutted and totally refurbished and opened out in 1998. What does remain is ornate woodwork in the entrance foyer together with some floor tiling, and a very ornate woodwork ceiling throughout, from which it is possible to work out the original layout.
