| A modern, purpose built Wetherspoon’s in the centre of Milton Keynes. It’s got a contemporary appearance with floor to ceiling windows on three sides offering a fantastic 270° panoramic view of the surrounding office blocks, and one wall even had a small counter running along it so you could sit and admire the outlook . The curved ceiling appears to be some type of painted steelwork with black iron girders, and in rather start contrast to this is some full height wood panelling on the walls that aren’t glass which almost lends a hotel drawing room feel to the place. Flooring is a mixture of wood and red patterned carpet, and as usual in a JDW there are plenty of tables and chairs as well as a few circular pods with leather bench seating. A couple of plasmas were dotted around, but these were unobtrusive with no sound and there were a few quiz machines and a quiz machine opposite the bar. Service at the bar was prompt, as was the food service – in fact the waiter must have left the kitchen around the same time that I left the bar. Besides the usual offerings of Abbott Ale and Ruddles, beers on tap were Oakham JHB, Hoggley’s Pump Fiction, Hopping Mad Amazing Grace, Hook Norton Double Stout and Tring’s Mansion Mild. The “exclusive to Wetherspoons” Veto Ale is apparently coming soon. Ciders were Weston’s Much Marcle, Strongbow and Thatcher’s Gold. Say what you like about Wetherspoon’s, but any pub that does Thatcher’s Gold when the rest of Milton Keynes is drowning in a sea of Strongbow is all right in my book. Blackthorn - 26 Jan 2012 19:57 |

| A slightly bigger branch of Wetherspoons than the nearby Moon under Water and holding a larger range of ales, many of which were part of the current festival. Cider was Sandford Orchards Bumbleberry Cider. Food also seemed to be much more popular here too, with tables hard to come by. A more pleasant place to drink than the Moon under Water, with its large windows creating plenty of light. blue_scrumpy - 24 Oct 2011 22:24 |
| The best of MK city centre Wetherspoons. I've never had a bad pint in here, although they are usually a trifle cold a la Spoons up and down the country. jjsint - 25 May 2011 17:20 |
| Huge choice of beer - 12 handpumps ! Sometimes the beer you ask for is "off", but plenty of others to choose from. Loads of seating. Food as per any other pub in the chain - they haven't poisoned me yet. Always warm even on the coldest days, and cool in the Summer too. All in all a great place for a lunchtime/afternoon drink. Can get busy in the evenings and suffer from the usual 'Spoons service problems, i.e. if the bar is busy the staff suddenly discover table clearing/washing up that just HAS to be done immediately. Mind you it doesn't help when you're stuck behind some chav ordering 15 pints of lager ! gherkindangler - 24 Feb 2011 17:27 |
