Vile. Noisy, over-heated and with that unpleasant stickiness on every surface that you get in a pub whose management knows that their purpose is to serve drunken morons lager at £3+ a throw, meaning they have no motivation to actually clean anything. Thankfully, this and Yates' take a lot of the stag parties away from the rest of the town. However, even this 'service' doesn't get it so much as a solitary point from me.

When the walkabout opened it had friendly staff and was a good place to have a couple of pints. Now it seems that they only employ humourless robots who seem to be permanently in a bad mood. Still a cheap place to start a days binge though. Double vodka & redbull only £3

I've found myself in Walkabout on three occasions since I've been here, and hated the experience every time. It's expensive, crowded, hot, sticky, and full of drunken middle aged men who can't keep their hands to themselves. The toilets are vile, the door staff are rude, and the music is appalling. Trying very hard to think of something positive to say about it, but it's not happening.

I would agree with the majority of posts below really. It's a horrible place and I only ever go there if dragged. Horrendously sticky floor, jam-packed full of idiots. But to be fair, it is a Walkabout - you wouldn't exactly go in there expecting a nice quiet pint of real ale...
