Your Welcoming Village Pub In The Heart Of Hemington
Welcome to The Jolly Sailor, Hemington’s beloved village pub, where great drinks, warm company, and genuine hospitality are always on tap.
Nestled in the heart of Leicestershire—and only a stones throw from the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire borders—our traditional free house is a cosy retreat for locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re toasting by the crackle of our log burner in winter or soaking up the sunshine in our inviting beer garden, you’ll find a handpicked selection of cask ales, craft kegs, and fine wines waiting for you.
We’re happy to host all kinds of gatherings, from birthdays and family get-togethers to wakes and more intimate occasions.
Whatever the reason, our warm and welcoming pub provides the perfect setting to come together, share memories, and enjoy each other’s company. The Jolly Sailor is a place to relax, raise a glass, and feel at home—we can’t wait to welcome you soon.
Whether it’s Premier League football, rugby, or the big boxing bouts, you won’t miss a moment at The Jolly Sailor.
We show Sky Sports and TNT Sports across two large screens—one in each bar—so you can enjoy the action wherever you’re sitting. Challenge your mates to a game of darts at half-time, grab a pint from our great selection of cask and keg beers, and if you’re feeling hungry, our freshly baked pizzas make the perfect match-day snack.

Jolly Sailor is a real country friendly pub, living there or driving through you will always be made to feel welcome. The baguettes are amazing or even the pizza, freshly made to order, such a great atmosphere makes you want to stay for just one more!
Jay
A well kept pub with a great outdoor space that’s set in a beautiful typical English village. The beer is always good whenever we’ve been here with a great selection that seems to change weekly. There’s always pork pie available and freshly made pizza every day. The staff are always friendly, and they allow well behaved dogs in too.
