Real ale has improved - now served at correct temp. Adding candles to tables does not a good pub make! Far too few on bar duty, dirty, food OK I suppose. Beer range needs changing - this is just a S&N tied house. Courage (2), Greene King (2) and 1 guest is not imaginative! Look at Dorchester's JDW for ideas on what the pub should be like!

I am sorry to say that this pub has gone down even further in my estimation, they have got rid of one of there best barmen,(Alex). On a Sunday lunch it is quite common to have just one member of staff on the bar, the rest are to busy with the food.

Grubby and ill maintained pub. Beer ok. Layout is a bit odd too.
|
whent there at easter the food and drink was tip-top and the service was much bettet than you find in most wetherspoon pub's.
|
Recently refurbished bar. Now only 4 handpumps so I guess the real ale commitment has gone. Dreary beer choice. Need to look at other free houses in town and surrounding area to see how to do it.
|
I never expect much from a wetherspoon's outlet, chilled real ale and poor service are the norm, but this pub is in aleague of it's own the worst service ever! Allied with vinegar replacing beer. DO NOT Go THERE! I've given this pub nought i must be in a good mood!

First impressions of this pub were good, lasting impressions certainly weren't!! Went there for 'Curry Club' after waiting 1 hour for food was told our meal had been given to the wrong table by mistake and they were then sold out!! Very slapdash. Went for a Chinese.

One of the worst Wetherspoon's I have been to for ages. A very poor ale selection (all Greene King and Marstons), and a rather grubby feel to the pub.
|
Goes from bad to worse. Under staffed bar at weekends; beer usually limited to four real ales. A shame as it was better when it opened.
|
We ended up in the Greyhound after a fruitless search for a restaurant in Bridport outside of the holiday season - grill night was great value and obviously popular, food was spot on.Usual large range of the JDW ales and ciders. Place is a bit souless, lots of small seating areas including an almost separate room, but no complaints.
|
What has happened to the Greyhound? It was never that great but lately its getting worse. The draw of cheap beer is one thing but I prefer a decent crowd and not to hang around to get served.

When Wetherspoons arrived in Bridport we all welcomed it. At last a pint at a fair price. Since the landlord has gone the pub is now filthy, understaffed on busy nights and the guest ales are unimaginative. Look to the Dorchester 'spoons for 'how to do it'. Bar staff surly too.
