| had a 50p off voucher and the bus dropped me right outside - woulda been rud not too. OK, reasonable selection of ale and the Wychcraft Blonde I had was almost as good as it should be. looked to be some interesting characters in there. kernott1 - 9 Apr 2015 18:32 |
| Even by the standards of Wetherspoons, very poor indeed. Grim, aircraft hangar like and with the hint of an unpleasant smell pervading. The only + point is the beer but a pint of Wayland's Smithy came nowhere near that of the standard at the White Rabbit a couple of hundred yards away. CAMRA's continued indulgence of the xenophobic, Tesco-emulating chain continues to be a blot on the organisation's make up. BoehmBawerk - 9 Feb 2014 07:29 |
| Apparently allowing the EDL to meet here this Saturday afternoon. Please let the manager know your feelings. flashharry1965 - 24 Aug 2011 11:47 |
| A largish 'Spoon, which is handily placed for a cheeky pint before catching the bus home after work. Usually something interesting on the hand pumps and usually in good nick too. Service is always friendly but you may have a bit of a wait as it can get busy after 5 P.M. With ample seating and two outside areas, The Swan seems to be the 'Spoon that attracts the local characters more than the Four Candles and there is a fairly entertaining menagerie of regulars to spot as they go about their daily business of drinking while everyone else is at work. cheesyal - 6 Jun 2011 23:36 |
| It's always good when you find a bar that the wife likes - that usually means we stop for more than one pint. This is a pleasant enough Spoons with a few guest ales and quite a comfortable interior. Nicely situated by the old castle and not far from the city centre and the shops. Usual Wetherspoons offers with a mug of coffee much cheaper than other bars/coffee shops in town. Had Loddon Ferrymans Gold which is always one of my favourite local beers. mcroyal - 1 Jun 2011 21:51 |
