| Agree that you do get some 'care in the community' sorts who take up the seats all day nursing a pint. It is a typical Weatherspoons pub: cheap ale, good selection and reasonable inexpensive food. Luckilly the food section is away from the CITC sorts previously mentioned. I would imagine that service is bad when it is packed. HornchurchJohn - 11 Sep 2008 16:22 |
| JD Wetherspoons, the pub chain equivalent of Poundland or Primark. Providing affordable food and drink to the fiancially challenged or incorigable tightwads. This one is a particularly fetid den of iniquity, usually quite filthy, rank and dingy inside. Most notable is the group of hardcore drinkers who get in when it opens at about 9am and then proceed to drink all day save for occasional trips to the bookies nextdoor for a punt. The ale is the usual Wetherspoons fayre. A selection of big name bitters served reasonably well and at knock-down prices. Food is of the "hold it down if you can" variety. I once saw a Wetherspoons employee asked by a customer "if the meal had shellfish in it". The employee went away and came back out of the kitchen with a big cardboard box, which must have held about 50 of these pre-cooked meals and had the cooking instructions and ingredients list on the side, and held it in front of the customer's face so they could read the ingredients. Fresh, my arse. So, not a pleasant place to while away the hours in my book. Having said all this, the Moon and Stars does redeem itself slighty as it is 1) The only place at that end of South Street which sells real ale. 2) The ale is really not too bad 3) It's cheap and unpretenious. So, a solid 4/10 in my book Jay28 - 23 May 2008 16:57 |

| I visit this whole once a week because it's cheap and it's near to where i live. The problems starts when you go to order your food and have to give them your table number. When you are on your own you have to leave your coat or drink on the table to reserve your table, this is ok if you can see it while you que for ten minuites to be told that your on the wrong till? Once you have ordered and you recieve your meal you have to pile up all the old dishes out of the way and mop up the table yourself the best way you can (due to knowone cleaning the tables)? Take a tip from me if you need to read the menu, take a torch with you this place is so dimly lit you may need a stick to find your way around??? knobby37 - 4 Jul 2007 20:41 |
| This pub is great if you want a drink or dinner on the cheap. As with all Wetherspoons, they have a "two meals for £5.99" or similar deal, and the drinks are always cheap and cheerful. The only problem is the fact that they don't play music, and the interior is quite dark and dingy. Not the place to go if you're looking for somewhere fun with a party atmosphere.
