could do with more staff behind the bar at times, however on the whole the beers good the staff are brill, the new manager seems to be top notch. best move he made was to get rid of the bloody sofas, now we all have a bit more room, well done Tomas. PS Anya should get promotion, and David is just fantastic, always attentive, alert, and polite. for those that i have not mentioned keep up the good work.

Nice pub until the manager started watering down the beer....

Nie pub with a good choice of ales although the quality has been rather poor for the past couple of months I've noticed. Friendly enough atmosphere although the staff seem to have a habbit of giving you less change than you're owed. Ha shappened to me a few times in recent weeks, maybe I've just been unlucky, who knows...

LOL I think I've overheard the guy who bemoans 'the onslaught of Brussels' and more. My ears started bleeding after a while. On the upside I go in here because I like to try out the guest beers. I find the staff OK at present - there's always something of a turnover but they have been worse. Wish the atmosphere was better though.

I am in two minds about this pub. It undoubtedly deserves its Cask Marque accreditation as the cask ales are excellent, with plenty of choice. I always finish up with the Directors which is particularly good in here. BUT it is a Witherspoons pub at the end of the day with all that that brings! Some staff OK but others surly. OK for a couple of pints.

typical wethersppons, full of the usual low life scumbags you find in most wetherspoons. Nice pint of Caladonian XPA last night though.
|
A decent enough Wetherspoons, with a more mixed clientele than some. The beer range was wide this week, but all seemed to be served through a sparkler, giving an unwelcome "cappucino" effect. Other Wetherspoons don't do this - why here? Next time I'll ask if it's possible to have my pint served naturally, and see what the response is. If negative, I may have to write to Tim Martin again...

Excellent range of ales and lagers undermined by sterile JDW environment and purple faced senior citizens bemoaning the "onslaught of Brussels" and casting aspersions on social workers and "women who wear trousers."
|
Not as bad as you might think. A good range of real ales, in good condition. Although the place smells of old mens trousers.

You can get Adnams and Wells in the Royal Albert...but yes, you're basically right Rich66

Relatively small for a Wetherspoon's, better than average service for a Wetherspoon's, otherwise the usual Wetherspoon's formula of an old building that used to something other than a pub (a post office in this case) fitted out to look like a "traditional" sort of pub.
Cheap prices and the chance of a decent guest ale are the main attractions for me. To my knowledge it's the only pub within quite a wide radius where you're likely to find anything more exotic than Young's/Fuller's.

its a weatherspoons...what do you expect? - cheap drinks, real ale...good value for money and the clientele aren't bad at all......
