| After eighteen months or so my review of this pub is due for updating. Very little has changed in that time. The beer, surely the 'raison d'etre' of any Wetherspoon pub, remains good. The choice is good, the quality remains as high, if not higher, than most pubs in the country. Yes, you'll get the odd duff pint, with up to 9 real ales on and lager vanishing like water in the desert, you should expect nothing less. It's a Wetherspoon, a good one. The place is clean, the beer's plentiful and drinkable, the foods cheap but cheerful, kids run about, blokes get drunk, coffee clogs up the bar and there are never enough staff. What do you expect. Me? I love the place.......... My rating? 8 Runningdog - 18 May 2009 11:55 |
| The real ale selection is confusing. You see a wide selection of excellent ales only to find out that they are not on sale yet. What's going on. Surley if the beer is on display it should be for sale. If the beer is good it gets drunk. If it is indifferent or bad it shouldnt be there in the first place. bobw - 30 Jan 2009 13:50 |

| Re my last review, the real ale has returned to something like it's former standard Runningdog - 12 Mar 2008 11:32 |
| As I have said before this is a regular haunt of mine and it truly goes against the grain to knock it. The quality of the ales served here is generally excellant. But, over the last week or so that quality has dropped off. Not sure why, selling right to the very bottom of the barrel is my guess. I don't suppose, or is it hope, this glitch won't last..........
