I'm not really a fan of the Llyods bar chain so this place was on a loser for me from the start. Alright for a bit but once those youngsters start coming out i'm running for the door! 5/10 montie49 - 16 Nov 2011 17:55 |
Found the place to be very stuffy with little or no air con so opted to sit outside on the balcony and do some torbay chav spotting. They aint done a bad job of doing it up but it seemed to be lacking in atmosphere on the sat afternoon i visited, 7/10 fat_beer_badger - 14 Oct 2010 13:53 |
Popped in for lunch on Saturday. Quite pleasent but suffers from th chronic Weatherspoons problem of too few bar staff, to cope with the coffee machine. I do wonder if the profit on a "Skinny Latte" is worth the potential loss of the beer and food people. However the barman, that eventually served me was good. And agreed that we don't see enough mild. I tried the Otter mild and it was very nice. The food was a bit overcooked and bland. They could also do with a few stronger lamps. Had to fish out my flashlight to read the menu.... captaineric - 8 Jun 2010 17:56 |
Now called The Green Ginger, this a typically large Wetherspoon�s split across two levels with a bar in each. The overall appearance reminds me of a hotel lobby rather than a pub, although the dance floor obviously looks out of place. During the afternoon it�s mostly populated with shopper�s, but morphs in to something quite different in the evening with loud music, flashing lights, bouncers on the door, and serving until 3:00am. Beers on this occasion were Ruddle�s Best, Abbott Ale, Firefly, Ballot Box Beer, Stormstay and Bays Breaker. Ciders were Strongbow and the quite pleasant Marcle Hill. Blackthorn - 10 May 2010 13:58 |
