    Medium Rare 14oz Angus steak was as good here as in a place charging £30. Wetherspoon standard, good value and does what it says.

    I seek out when possible weatherspoons breakfasts over all others because no matter which one I've been in they have been awesome and great value. Until now. Dried out egg, undercooked bacon, dry bean

    The Cask Marque certificate is to the left of the bar as you walk in. It won't scan though because of reflection from the light above, which is annoying.

    I can help but feel like all Wetherspoons have gone down hill in the last couple of years. They were never anything great but still.

    Typical Wetherspoon's, good sized pub with plenty of seating and decent prices and range

    Here its a great place for a fight if you want an audience. Try "eyeing up" someone's "bird" to instigate it.

    Good service! all out of Haggis, but free upgrade to 8oz steak (which is more expensive)!
