| This is a great pub and one of the best 'spoons around. Staff are a bit hit and miss though - either brainy or brain-dead. Beer is good and changes frequently. Great mix of families, Saga card-holders and dodgy alchies. Never any trouble, food is fast and generally good and pub is kept clean. Only problem is the Naz parking which makes it impossible to leave a car overnight. steveo - 14 Jun 2010 16:32 |
| went in here on tuesday just gone (1st june 10) and you'd seriously be forgiven for thinking this wasn't a wetherspoons.. took my family for the steak night and good food all round... they seemed very busy for a tuesday evening, lots of people eating but no complaints from the kids! the cask ales seem to be different every time i'm in there, spoke to one of the chaps who said they prefer to order in from local breweries instead of keeping to the status quo. impressive considering the other local pubs here only seem to stick to the same old same old. we drove up from hinchley wood but the pub's on the corner of a roundabout to kingston and the a3/m25 so it's well placed for drivers or for public transport. definitely a 'food pub' - worth checking out. ashd - 3 Jun 2010 01:40 |
| One of the nicer Wetherspoons. I thought that a early Friday evening, just before Christmas, might be pretty horrific in any pub in the UK but the Cap in Hand was very pleasant with a very good selection of beers and nice, attentive staff. It was still nice when we left just before 7pm. Of course, two hours later it might have been horrible - but when we were there it was really good. I can see why it's in the Good Beer Guide. (I'd suggest that Oakman100 and arkaye try visiting The Cap at about 5pm on a Friday.) Trequites - 13 Dec 2009 20:29 |
| Despite my previous message I must endorse Oak's more recent comment. Whereas I felt I could previously have brought professional colleagues here, the general level of drunkenness would prevent me from doing it anytime soon as a 'general British pub' in future for foreign clients. I did it because this pub offered the best of British ales and European lagers, and nobody got offensively drunk. arkaye - 31 Oct 2009 17:38 |
| Sadly I feel I can't use this pub any more as it seems to be a real rough house at all times of ther day. This is no indictment to the pub itself but it is a Wetherspoons and it's in an area which does attract some undesirables (I was intimidated once whilst playing a fruitie which I only put £2 in) and have heard that punch ups take place on a regular basis. A terrible shame as this has been GBG listed and undeniably they do sell a fine range of ales at a keen price. I prefer to pay more though in a more relaxing atmosphere and feel safe.
