| Does anybody know if The Wishing Well has Setanta Sports on their tv repertoire? Or is it mostly football rather than rugby? Thanks! sadie12 - 26 Oct 2007 00:51 |
| Dark and Dingy. Not a particularly welcoming place, and the layout is a little strange, pillars and wooden dividers aplenty. But the beer is good, the guinness is cold and the Thai food is fantastic, and very reasonably priced (like £5 a head tops). Wouldn’t spend a whole evening there, but there are certainly worse pubs around. Pilsner - 7 Aug 2007 16:44 |
| Seems this place has a few problems with its staff. I have to say I always feel they think they're doing me a favour by taling my money. Went in there one afternoon during the week and there was no-one behind the bar. Couldn't see anyone around except the kitchen staff serving up food who neither acknowledged my presence nor went to find someone to serve me. Waited for 4-5 minutes and went elsewhere, that just about sums up this pubs attitude to its clients at the moment. anonymous - 26 Nov 2006 16:24 |
| Just left this pub after trying to watch the Ireland vs Pacific Islands rugby game. I've no idea how many TV screens are in there, but, the two big ones were both showing the same football match (only 2 lads sat at one chatting, instead of watching it), and several smaller sets around the bar showing the same games. Only one small screen near the bar showing the Rugby. So, I settle down with my Guinness to watch it. 15mins into the game, some young barman says, "I'm afraid I have to turn it over". "Are you having a laugh?", I say. "No", and he smirks, and then turns it over onto the football. Seems to me that the proprieter was off at the time, and the bar was run by staff. I'm going to try and find the landlord and register my complaint. But, it's unlikely I'll ever drink there again. Irish pub my arse. mcbazza - 26 Nov 2006 15:56 |
| Irish pub but not intimidatingly Irish. Not exactly cosy and welcoming but a damn sight better than the Verulam and Dunnings. prof_plum - 15 Nov 2006 12:50 |
