Review:  


Very Large JD Wetherspoons pub with a palatial entrance and huge rooms. A large staircase with a beautiful stained glass window at the top leads to an upstairs bar and eating area. There are two further bars downstairs.

The rear ground floor bar is bright and airy due to a perspex roof. There are plenty of aluminium tables and chairs in this area. Two smaller lounge areas leading off this have comfortable seating and a cosy atmosphere and are popular with diners. The other bar is huge with a high ceiling and tall pillars that are a notable feature. There is some seating to the front and plenty of standing room. Also near to the entrance is a small family room where you can have a meal with the family until 5pm.

Live sports including live football is now shown on a large drop down screen in the main bar area and several widescreen TV's. The pub is very popular bar with a mixed clientele of students, locals, business crowd and tourists. It is extremely very busy at all times especially at the weekend and on Thursday Curry night. There is a small outside seating area during the day that is used for smoking.

Disabled access is excellent with an entrance at the side door - ring bell and a designated disabled toilet at the rear.
