I have never been a fan of Wetherspoons, largely owing to the type of Tossers they tend to attract....however, this one is a Gem.

Monster breakfast for under £4, and 6 Real Ales on....in pretty good nick it has to be said! My only real gripe has been echoed below on numerous occasions, and that is that the temperature it is served at is not quite up to scratch, but credit where it's due......they keep a good pint.

Best Wetherspoons I've been to and guest ales always changing. You don't get the usual idiots that you find in other Wetherspoons - probably because of it's location. And it's a lot cheaper than the rip-off bar in Temple Meads station.

Still come in here virtually everyday after work and yes the beer is too cold...

A) Let It Warm Up

yes it takes a long time to get served at times.....

But Also has some of the friendliest most helpful bar staff around(and there are still idiots who order cappucino at ten in the evening)

I have never in 20months of visiting had one bad pint.......

KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK GUYS!!

p.s. How about some Cheddar Ales on tap........;-)

I think this is one of the best wetherspoons I have been in, always pop in after footy, while waiting for the train home.

Evening all,

It't nice to see some constructive criticism for the pub. I'm sorry most of it points in the direction of the cold ale.

I can assure you this is a problem we (and head office) are aware of although I don't see there being a quick fix. As far as I can tell it's to do with the beer lines being too close to our super chilled Glycol lines which causes the problem. Unfortunatly I can't see the company forking out the money to fix this in the near future although we did have a visit from one of the directors who shared that same concernes as most of you - hopefully he can help sway the situation and get the problem sorted.

As for the real ale selection. We do have a duty to our customers to supply ales they know and like. We'll always have Abbot, Green King IPA and Pedigree on (not only because we have too, but because the're good beers!) aswell as Courage Directors (by far the most popular beer in the pub). We do try to have at least two guest ales available all times but often have the same beers reappearing due to there popularity. I know this isn't to the taste of those who would like guest ales on all lines and I'm all for trying new ales and breweries However, I don't think there's anything wrong with a pint of something you know.

I'd appreciate your comments both in person and online and would just like to assure you that if you do find anything wrong with your beer I'd be happy to replace it.

Thanks,
Dale.
