| Only been in once, but I couldn’t find anything particularly wrong with it. The main drinking area is divided into two by the stairs to the toilets and the bar is on the right from the main entrance. There is a “no alcohol” drinking/smoking area outside the front on the main street, and I believe it is also possible to sit out on a balcony down the side. It had one of the largest ranges of Festival Ales that I came across, 8 or 9 I think. The two I tried were certainly in reasonable form, and I didn’t have any problem in getting served. I can’t comment on the food because I didn’t eat there I can’t comment on clientele in the evening because I was there at lunchtime 6/10 – one of the better Spoons IMHO Martinsh - 15 Apr 2011 23:10 |
| A standard spoons pub tbh. beer range appears to be getting worse from its diversity of a few years ago. a nice location in town but atmosphere is damp and only worth it on a friday night if you love queing more than u do drinking elalaer9 - 14 Jul 2010 14:45 |
| I'd say Great beer, considering it's a wetherspoons, but I have to echo the staff comments...I get annoyed when i have to hang over the bar waving a tenner just to get noticed. philgreg - 5 Jun 2010 23:52 |
| excelent range of ales which i sampled several, large menu to suit all budgets, meals served in a timley fashion and hot, picturesque setting next to the Queens gardens which are especially nice in summer pvfc1 - 22 Feb 2009 12:59 |
| I have visited this pub a few times over the last 2 years, in the hope that the place may improve. Sadly I am always disappointed. The Bar Staff during the day are generally pissing about between them and when they grace you with their presence, they seem to be annoyed that they may have to do some work. Firstly, in the winter months this place always seems to be freezing. Secondly, the majority of the food seems to go through the micro wave. I don’t have a problem with this, but the micro wave must be knackered as the food always turns up cold! And I am not talking about the salads either. Pretty good prices on beer and food, but a waste of money if the quality of the food is crap. Manager needs a kick up the arse as this place has great potential and could be more popular. Until this happens I will be keeping a wide berth from this place. Would of got Zero reating if it was not for the reasonable beers on offer. wilko99 - 8 Dec 2008 09:49 |
