| Was in here yesterday morning, as we waited for Gallaghers to open. It was my second visit and I can't say it has improved greatly. It's a fairly standard Wetherspoons with a range of mainly Christmas Ales - Batemans Rosey Nosey, Mauldons Bah Humbug, Greene King IPA & Abbot, Phoenix Black Bee, Robinsons Mr Scrooge, Caledonian Santa's Little Helper & Peerless In the Balance. Cider was Westons Old Rosie. However, be careful when ordering Old Rosie as you may well end up with Rosey Nosey which was practically undrinkable. We also had the misfortune to try a breakfast. It's fairly difficult to go wrong with a full English breakfast, but this place certainly managed it! blue_scrumpy - 18 Dec 2011 13:41 |
| Five ales available last night but they were all 'dark' beers, not to my liking. Less than half full but a good range of ages drinking and eating. Certainly better than the other Wetherspoons, the John Laird, not far away. wirraldrinker - 27 Nov 2011 21:02 |
| Used this place for years and at one time they served the best pint of Cains in town but like always with Wetherspoons they soon took that off! They can’t seem to leave things alone sometimes. Staff are usually friendly but very often not enough of them; Friday lunches, 2 staff serving 10 or 12 punter! Lately the range of beers has been poor. The other week 8 handpulls but only 3 beers on. Not good enough frankly and sometimes I just turn around and walk out. With just a bit more care this place could be improved. Gurkha - 27 Jan 2011 12:22 |

| I met a mate in here at 7:30 last night prior to going to the Birkenhead Beer Festival at Pacific Road Arts Centre. The pub was crowded with punters of all ages and was lively and noisy. There appeared to be a small Wetherspoons beer festival taking place, however most of the brews were 'sold out' or 'coming soon'. I was forced to have a pint of Greene King Abbot Ale. I was pleasantly surprised, it was a well presented, nice pint. Nice to see that this pub is thriving. wirraldrinker - 23 Oct 2010 16:45 |
