| Went here as Smugglers still not yet open (so bugger them off to Lancaster next).Thought Morecambe was very quiet then went in here and found about half of the population all eating/drinking and generally being happy with what was on offer. Food is as is for a spoons and my beer was spot on at a keen price so all in all a nice one. brianthelion - 22 Apr 2012 23:52 |
| The staff were really nice, serving usual microwaved fare with a smile. Usual 'spoons clientele kept mainly to one part of the pub, so this time, we weren't accosted by shuffling, drunk old men or aggressive, tattoed, toothless women ( as has happened in previous establishments in chain), however, the ubiquitous young mums with screaming babies and tearaway toddlers were out in force. One of the best 'spoons we have visited! gabbyannie - 24 Aug 2009 18:14 |
| The usual suspects make up the bulk of the regulars.I was approached by a drunken nutter,who thought I was a gangster;wish these types would confine themselves to talking to the woodwork.Not one of the better spoons,even the Barrow branch leaves this place way behind. This is no reflection on the staff,who as always are poorly lead and understaffed. delstefan - 21 Dec 2008 15:08 |
| For the benefit of the youngsters, this Wetherspoons is named in honour of the town’s greatest star, Eric Morecambe of Morecambe & Wise fame (Bartholomew being his real name). The pub is a ubiquitous, run of the mill, modern style Wetherspoons with a typically plastic and fairly gloomy interior. The low ceiling makes it a bit claustrahobic and the atmosphere is rather subdued. Like many Wetherspoons, its main draws are the cheap prices and Ale selection – 3 guests on my visit (Bryson Hurricane, Archers IPA, Cheeky Pheasant) plus a couple of standards (Pedigree and Abbott). The forthcoming ales are shown on a blackboard by the bar. There is further seating upstairs which is a bit brighter and offers panoramic views of Barclays Bank. A few old prints of the town adorn the walls but pride of place is taken by a copper & steel sculpture of Eric & Ernie in the stairwell. I don’t know Morecambe very well but there did not appear to be a great deal reasonable competition in the area and for that reason alone, the Eric Bartholomew is worth noting.

| Usual Wetherspoons fare, though I don't think Eric would appreciate it bearing his name. Always seem to be staff 'in training' who can't work the till and muck up your food order. Upstairs toilets fine but downstairs disabled toilet, which my mum needs to use, disgusting. It's now unlocked but used by people too lazy to go upstairs. Toilet roll always missing, bin disappeared, soap dispenser now gone, hand drier not working and whole room in a general state. Food usually ok and staff polite. Often rowdy locals in who have abused other visitors, not good for Morecambe's image (such as it has!). Now has tables outside for coffees and non alcoholic drinks only. lancslass - 26 May 2008 19:07 |
