Moon Under Water, Bostonback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Nice interior with lots of space.
In here last Saturday just after 11.00 am.
The Cider festival means that 4 of the 8 hand pulls are for Cider.
That leaves just 4 for Ruddles, Abbott and Doom Bore. and a guest.
The only guest was some kind of stout so I quaffed a couple of pints of Abbott and left just after 12.00 when some other pubs would now be open.

beware,the price of a pint is likely to go up while you wait to be served

Range of beer was limited than most Wetherspoons and the service was just about the slowest I have encountered in one...

A large pub with a fairly grand interior and a reasonable amount of character compared to the typical plastic Wetherspoons offering. The interior is divided into 3 specific areas emanating from the main bar. To the left of the bar is a non smoking conservatory type area for want of a better description. Comfortable enough with plenty of tables but one can�t help feel that it should make more of its location overlooking the river. The central area in front of the bar is dominated by a curving staircase that should lead to somewhere a bit grander than the toilets. At the foot are a couple of fruit machines and a quiz machine minus, of course, the volume. The paneled room opposite has a fireplace with a large mirror now partly obscured by a Plasma screen hanging down from the ceiling with a few nice old pictures of the town. To the other side of the bar is another large room, a bit plainer, usually a bit quieter and with less features. Another plasma screen breaks up the fairly empty wall and the room is desperately in need of a good elaborate chandelier and a few old portraits to give it a bit of character. There is also a small outside terrace when the weather permits. As per the usual Wetherspoons outlets, there is a decent range of inexpensive beers and food. One of the better 'Spoons pubs.

It's alright in here, the drinks are nice and cheap. But they ID ALOT in here. One thing which is really annoying is that they don't play and music! How wierd is that?!

Large, segmented riverside Wetherspoon with the ability to hide away in intimate corners or to gather in large groups. Interesting circular central staircase. Food was acceptable and service was decent enough.
