user reviews of Spread Eagle, Abingdon

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

A serviceably enjoyable local that is just down the road from Abingdon United's teeming arena, this place has friendly service and a good range of beers and ciders. Abingdon itself is a slightly disappointing town that probably punches below its weight given its natural advantages - nearness to Didcot cannot help - but this is one of a cluster of highly acceptable locations in which to wile away your time.

have to change my mind compared to my previous review (and after 5 years of going there every monday). "New" owners are friendly and welcoming, and so are the locals. Food is so-so, we had a christmas do there and they couldn't cope with the numbers. Great chips though and good beer. One of the last "proper" pubs in Abingdon

the best range of ciders I've ever seen in Abingdon! In bottles they had Brothers, Thatchers, and I think some Weston's too. Draught was the usual Strongbow, but you can't have everything!

It's always been a nice pub, and now there's more reasons to drink there!

Pub changed hands recently (some folks from the nearby Boundary house). Still an OK local pub with a variety of beers but landladies not as welcoming as the previous owners

Always nice to go in and buy a decent pint, sadly not as often as I like now as I have moved from Abingdon.

Liam has a nononsense aproach to keeping his beer. Michelle is very friendly, a great pub enviroment and as mentioned it may take a little time to get in the "Click" ( not all the bad)....what are you waiting for only another 15 years to go.

An excellent pub to enjoy drinking well kept beer in! Liam and Michelle keep a good and friendly pub. No juke box but plenty of good real ale and freshly cooked home prepared food to accompany all those friendly discussions that good ale encourages.

An excellent locals pub, The Beer is always very well maintained. The single lounge dining room is very cosy and clean ant best of all no TV, Juke box Pool table etc. This is a conversational environment but can be quite clicky - acceptance however comes after 15 years or so.
