As you'd expect, getting served is something of a lottery given the predictably huge bar. Once successful, you then tend to find that at least a third of any items you were intending to order may no longer be available for various reasons which will be imparted with varying degrees of enthusiasm, but again that's standard Spoons fare. Generally, this place is fine. Decent prices (during the week) of at least a pound a pint less than many local competitors make it a relatively attractive if somewhat clinical option.

I went into this pub years ago when it was known as the Sorting Office and it was a shocking pub. Therefore, it took a lot of persuading to get me to go back in now that it had changed its name. The experience was not as grating as it had been as the clientele was at least of drinking age. Being a Weatherspoons, there was a good ale selection. One of my party order some food which turned up cold and to rectify it, they just put it in the microwave which was poor. However, the biggest problem was the lack of atmosphere. It was a bit like being in a hotel bar. I will not be going back here in a hurry.

"The Ellis" has recently got rid of it's chav disco and is reducing it's opening hours on Thurs to Sat.
To be honest once you get known to the bar staff here, this is not a bad boozer, (mainly after work)
where four of you can get change out of a tenner for a round.
OK, like all spoons it has it's share of WiFiers, OAPs, students and loons but I there are plenty of decent folk who go there, put off by the ever increasing prices of it's local competitors.
The food's not brilliant but come on, a beer and a burger for £6.59 ? Beats a Big Mac and a watery coke.
Give "The Ellis" a try sometime.

Don't dare go outside for a ciggie and some scum bag steals your pint and have the "cheek" to complain about it you'll get barred run by a power mad australian who thinks he's above company policy and the staff are a bunch of retarded jobsworths

This pub could and should be a gold mine if i was in the position to hire or fire in a pub and some one came looking for work and they told me they had worked here i would laugh them out the door i think the problems of this pub could be solved by removal of the surly uninterested manager who despite it being company policy to show the FA cup final laughed in our faces saying we should know football is not shown there when i pointed out it was policy to show it he denied all knowledge of it despite it being reported in at 3 national papers and in the inhouse magazine apart from that food and service are crap and if it wasn't for my mates going there i wouldn't go within a mile of it
