| I hope the refurb is completed soon - the front entrance is closed and so the disabled entrance must be used, and that was blocked by the nicotine-fiends, with the hallway stinking of smoke. £1.75 for a pint of Spitfire is a good reason to enter, and the heating was full on. Always seems to be busy, even at noon. MrBabble - 6 Feb 2010 13:53 |
| Worth a visit to admire the decor. Go through to the bar at the far end, turn round and look up. It's as if your standing on the stage. The ornate boxes and the circle seating are all still in place and the ceiling, walls and lights are impressive as well. However the rest leaves much to be desired. The beer and the service is average at best and for a building which must have hosted many great performances throughout it's history the place is sadly lacking in atmosphere now. outtamehead - 24 Jan 2010 06:19 |
| wonderful building,terrible staff,even worse customers--best thing about the place is seeing drunk seventy year olds totter about after 2pm.very entertaining. 1dave - 31 Oct 2009 18:29 |
| Had very mixed feelings about this place - a lovely venue, but to see an old opera house turned into a pub didn't seem right somehow to me. It certainly is interesting inside. Maybe it was the only way to keep it open. I'm certainly glad that Wetherspoons didn't take over the De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill as was once suggested. I keep going back to Wetherspoons despite my misgivings, the choice of ales was excellent and food good value and promptly served. Floyd - 22 Dec 2008 20:23 |
| Had Sunday roast with my wife yesterday £6.95 each including a pint of beer each, excellent value as found nothing wrong with the food or beer. The roast consisted of 4 slices of pork, 4 roast potatoes, yorkshire, stuffing, apple sauce, gravy, 2 or 3 types of veg. The plates and meal were red hot although the pub was busy as it was exactly 1pm we only had to wait for about 8 minutes for it to arrive. My beer was a pint of pedigree and the wife's beer was a pint of guinness. Facinateing place to have a pub in an old opera house, very unusual. real_ale_ade - 27 Oct 2008 20:46 |
