| great if you like watching fights and people vomiting outside the large floor to ceiling front windows. Even better if you like slow service and sticky tables. Ale is kept ok i suppose SGA - 24 Dec 2011 21:59 |
| Ok during the week, does the standard JDW meals and must say the Thursday night hot chicken massala is, with a side portion of bombay spuds is better, in terms of price and quality than some of the balti houses nearby. Avoid at the weekend, has a bloke in the gents selling toiletries, and it attracts the tanked up lower orders, having a cheap pre Flares pint, who are too tight to go in the Walkabout, O'Neills or the Sports Bar. son_of_odin - 19 Oct 2010 13:02 |
| Saturday nights, four deep at the bar, full of boyband wannabees and shrieking damsels (?) sticky carpet, bar awash with grog, bogs awash with p***, dumbo`s ordering food at 9.45pm......typical Broad Street mash up. Blastbeat - 8 Oct 2010 15:49 |
| The most appalling cold undercooked breakfast in town. Bloody terrible. (unless you like it cold, of course). Needs the chef to be kicked up the arse (or the microwave) skippybn21 - 7 May 2010 20:31 |
| Paid a visit to the Figure of Eight during the recent beer festival and I was pleased to see a good number of guests available, I've noticed a lot of wetherspoons aren’t like this, funnily enough a lot of CAMRA award winning wetherspoons, kind of ironic. All the beers we tried were of good quality. The pub was clean and had a good atmosphere. Only one complaint some in our group ordered profiteroles roles which were very plentiful for the price but were frozen solid making it rather difficult to eat, only a minor quibble though. Otherwise a enjoyable visit. thatchrisdude - 3 Nov 2009 15:17 |
