One of the town centre pubs. Deserted during the day and at night dark and intimidating. One best visited at the end of a pub crawl phonak - 17 Jan 2010 20:13 |
Situated in a road just off the main High Street, I found the Trocadero to be a rather tired and slightly depressing pub on a recent weekend evening visit. The traditional exterior is inviting enough, yet within this single-roomed establishment, there is little to catch ones attention: a spit and sawdust job with limited seating and little - if anything - to really grab your attention in terms or trinkets, ornaments etc. To the rear of the pub is a DJ booth, a plasma television - then showing the football on silent - , and a battered leather sofa. A far from extensive drink-range is a disappointment, with no real ales and only the basic keg lagers and bitters being available - though prices were admittedly on the cheap side. According the poster I observed in the gents, a full-programme of entertainment is on offer: a twice-weekly quiz, karaoke, a �cheese� music night and - as was the occasion on my visit - rock night. Admittedly, the music being aired was rather good, yet the volume control needs to be looked at - Motley Crue and �Girls, Girls, Girls� ensuring the ear-bleeding commenced upon entry. To add a further woe, there were a total of three customers within - and semi-sloshed ones at that! The staff were friendly and welcoming enough, however. To conclude: an OK local in some respects, yet, a desperate and down-trodden kind of place, in serious need of some TLC and perhaps, some kind of an overhaul. I do fear for the future.
