The Spread Eagle Inn, Hereford

Good outdoor space to the rear and covered smokers area too. Seems to be having more and more live music events and the odd open mic night. Like the food especially the sausage and mash.

There appears to be no order as to who gets served I have on occasions been overlooked to the extent I've had to call over a staff member.

The only thing that lets the place down is the irregular opening hours on Fri/Sat night. It seems the bouncers are the ones calling the shots.

On one night it�s been dead but they've stayed open to 12.30am, but when it�s heaving another week they turf everyone out at 10.30pm. It's stupid, you could have only just been served a pint and as they've called last orders and the bouncers there asking you to leave.

Ladies toilets stink of fish and air freshner with the sink hanging off the wall- nice.

O'Neills, Hereford

Has been tarted up, the pool tables that were there Christmas 2007 (the last time I saw the one Hop Pole) are gone and has been replaced with extra seating. Frequently eat lunch with work colleagues. Food is very good.

There also individual booths to the front of the pub with private fridges that can be rented when footy's on. Not tried it out, but suppose you then only need to leave the TV to use the loo. Appears very busy on Fri/Sat night, sometimes difficult to get a seat.
