Ceased to be a Wetherspoons late last year.
Now trading as 'The New Baron of Hinckley'.

Busy, clearly thriving Wetherspoons in the middle of the town. Simply cannot criticise any establishment that has pleasant service, good beer and unbelievably low prices. Fair do's.

Visited for a meal and a couple of pints on a saturday lunchtime,food very good for spoons and very good service,good pub.

Quick and friendly service from attractive bar maid when visited. Nice well kept pint of guest ale at the usual cheap jdw price. 7/10

Visited on 19/11/04.
the pub was average Wetherspoons, but the beer choice was not as good as normal in these houses.
they had a few marstons beers, Abbot Ale and old hooky which went off when I asked for it.
Pub was okay but a bit dirty

Unfortunatly ,whilst the prices might be attractive, this pub suffers from a classic case of under staffing.During busy periods tables mount high with leftover food and dirty ashtrays.I suggest Mr Martin does a customer care audit on a Saturday afternoon to see how poor the service is.
Hinckley is not renowned for its quality bars so The Baron is packed to the rafters on Friday and Saturday nights despite the lack of music.Judging by the surroundings and the amount of time it takes to get served it would suggest that people would queue up to get into a tent in the centre of Hinckley as long as the drinks were cheap!

The only Weatherspoons for miles, and you can tell. usually rammed even when other pubs aren't due to central location and prices. to be fair Weatherspoons have made a good job of the pub. it's big, going higher as you go into it and they've stuck local historical artefacts around the place. if your logic dictates that you're gonna go in here to have a few cheap pints at the start of a night, be warned, it will *still* be packed with people doing exactly the same :)
