| Very busy on my Friday afternoon visit and I was fortunate enough to get one of the nice booth seats after a couple left - otherwise I would have been sat in the middle of the strange canteen layout area that Spoons seem so fond of. Fairly typical open plan layout. At the bar one bank of 5 hand pumps had all unusual ales except for one which had Old Speckled Hen. There was a second bank of pumps which I didn't inspect, but assume had the Spoons old faithfuls such as Doom Bar, Ruddles, Abbot Ale, etc. I had a half of Phantasm by Acorn, a 4.5% ale, £1.18 for the half, or would have been £2.35 for a pint. I recall there was also an ale called Voodoo available, but don't remember the others. Service fairly quick, ale good. RealAleRobUK - 15 Nov 2016 17:09 |
| It's a 'spoons and all that goes with it. However my beer was fine and I got served quickly. They were promoting local breweries which was good to see. i know it's a family pub but I had to leave when the kids started screaming!! mcroyal - 24 Mar 2014 10:03 |
| After visiting the nearby Harvester (not the foodie chain), we rounded our night in Bingley off in here. It was a quite enlightening experience. Service was slow. One girl refused to serve us as she was cleaning the bar and the till, despite clearly seeing that people were waiting up to 10 minutes. I was eventually served the wrong drink. My first choice was 'unavailable'. The barman then got my second choice wrong. Ales available were Elland 1872 Porter & Myrtle Grove, Daleside Bitter, Naylors Sledgehammer, Thornbridge Jaipur, Ruddles Best & Greene King Abbot. There were no real ciders. The place itself was akin to a community centre. However, the clientele were a most intriguing bunch. Whilst I normally note a collection of ageing alcoholics during the day and crowds of teenagers in the evening, it appeared some of the older folk had forgotten to go home! Around a dozen were dotted around incongruously amongst the younger drinkers. The latter were displaying all of the local trends. Whilst the boys were wearing their jeans somewhere near their knees, seemingly keen to have their underwear on display, the girls were wearing the usual belts for skirts along with an unhealthy amount of make-up. One young lady looked very ill with her darkened face and white lips, similar to that teen idol Jordan. Or maybe I am rapidly becoming one of those older folk that have forgotten to go home! Either way, I wouldn't recommend this place unless you're here for the entertainment value. blue_scrumpy - 4 May 2011 18:55 |
| Agree with all the above comments. Went there with Fiona recently. A shadow of what we remember. Not helped by BBBs opposite closing. Dramatically reduced clientele as a result. Not as bad as wethers in shipley! Seve1974 - 24 Aug 2010 22:34 |
| Just a big soulless place too loud to talk to anybody and attracts the rough element. Typical Wetherspoon really. wooly2708 - 5 Aug 2010 00:02 |
