| Not as bad as some boozers and more of a 'local' feel than most Wetherspoons. I've started many a night off in there with mates over the years. It could do with getting a quiz machine though as its one of the few spoons without one! The guy on the door on weekends is a bit intense but not bad once he gets to know you. Does a great job at keeping the underagers out at least! Wouldn't eat in there though, the food is a bit dodgy... anonymous - 19 Dec 2006 19:03 |
| I think that some of the reviewers have been a bit harsh towards the Surrey Docks. Its not that bad, there is usually a good choice of unusual beers, the clientele are generally ok. I haven't seen any fights and no one has ever given me any grief. Food is obviously your typical Wetherspoon's fare not very good but then it won't kill you either. Atmosphere is not exactly a strong point but at least it isn't threatening. If you just want to go for a drink and a chat with a mate I think you could do worse. PeteinSQ - 30 Nov 2006 09:58 |
| Pretty decent for a 'Spoony's, in my opinion. I often go here for a quick drink before catching a film, the service is alright, the staff have always been fairly efficient, and they serve Zubrowka vodka! What more can you ask for? It's good in that it's a bit more of a 'local' pub, not completely soulless. The only time I ever found any trouble was when these horrible little chav kids came in done up in Halloween gear (3 weeks before Halloween, mind you), and went up to people's tables and demanded "Trick or Treat"... putting aside the fact that I think trick-or-treating is a vile American tradition, me and my b/f replied, "but we haven't got any sweets". The child looked outraged. "Nahhhh, MONEY!" he squealed. Bloody cheek! Needless to say, they were turfed out by the manager fairly sharpish. creature - 18 Jan 2006 16:03 |
| What a dump. I went there today. I ordered 3 drinks and 3 meals. (Not all for me). The barman was so dosey he sounded and looked druged up. I asked for 1 meal with no tamato and 1 meal with no mushroom. So all meals come out with it all on even though we asked for it no to. The drink was good, but they cant go rong with that really can they. Then I needed to go to the toilet so went to go to the gents and the doors locked. I ask the dosey barman if he can open it up and he says "o theres 1 upstairs you have to use". So the bars downstairs and the main seating area is downstairs but you have to use the upstairs toilet. This Pub should be shut down or get new staff. I would never go back. clintfurnish - 12 Nov 2005 15:39 |
| For all I can see how ppl would find it crap I feel being a Bermondsey resident I should do my bit for the old place! true, its a bit crap but there are worse places and as for Dan's comments...I know most of the people who go in there and they don't fight for no reason. He must have caught them on a bad day coz I've been going in there for years and only seen a couple of fights. nuff said. ST2004 - 27 Jan 2005 16:15 |
