| This branch of Wetherspoons is quite different from most others. It actually has a little character. Being based in an old building, it has two separate entrances with two separate bars. If you go in the main bar, be sure to check the blackboard at the side, which tells you what is on in the smaller lower bar. The barmaid was less than helpful and I missed out on a drink I would otherwise have chosen. Nevertheless, the beer range is good - Adnams Gunhill, Three Castles Stoned, Greene King Abbot & Ruddles Best, Loddon Hullabaloo, Kelham Island Pale Ride & Springhead Roaring Meg. Westons Old Rosie was the cider, whilst Broadoak Perry was also available. Note that cider is hidden away in a side room. So it is not immediately obvious what is available in the main bar, let alone the lower bar. Despite this, I would recommend this Spoons purely because it is different from their usual characterless branches. blue_scrumpy - 29 Aug 2011 19:37 |

| Last few food visits have been at breakfast time or curry club, plus once for steak club. Also drink here at least once a week, and the ale is always reliable. Food is up to the expected standard, though one or two tables are now a bit on the wobbly side - one (No 3) was seriously loose on its legs! Hope to have Sunday club lunch before long. arthur256 - 19 Apr 2010 21:41 |
| I have been to this pub on many occasions and they always have a good range of beers on including local beers. Wetherspoons really should be commended for their support of local breweries. I had a lovely pint of Rudolph from the Itchen valley brewery and Frozen assets from Rebbellion both in great condition and very nice and the service is great. Well worth a visit!!

| One of the few old buildings in Bracknell, a Tudor manor house no less - the Monks Room) features an original priest hole. Along with various period features The courtyard area is a step above the usual Wetherspoons al fresco experience. Two bars with in separate building with different beers on - I counted four guest beers, including Loddon and Butcombe, which were both pretty good. It was late afternoon on Wednesday so can’t really comment on how it as rush times, but on the strength of this visit I’d pop in again and would recommend it as a better Spoons experience.
