Moon On The Square, Northampton

Popped in here on Sunday afternoon whilst waiting for a bus. Very large pub as usual for Wetherspoons. Right in the centre of Northampton and close to the Market and the bus station. It was quiet and there was plenty of room. Some very local beers that I had not tried before. Beer was in good condition and staff very friendly.

True, there were some lines being cleaned and true, that the pump clips were turned to the front but the pumps that were not being used were clearly marked as unavailable.

Beer was cheap at �1.99. Food was standard Wetherspoons menu. Only chicken left on the roast front unfortunately. To be expected at 1600 on a Sunday afternoon. So I had steak and kidney pudding.

Wetherspoons generally, for me, is economical and I have never had an undrinkable pint. The food is always very reasonably priced.

Incidentally this pub is in CAMRA's Good Beer Guide.
