Ramsgate, Kent:
Nothing to see here, it’s a ‘spoons
Actually, there is something to see. Like many ‘spoons pubs, the building is lovely, and with this one, the sheer scale is stunning. This place is huge, and over multiple floors.
Other than that, yes, it is a ‘spoons, so the normal selection of cheap food and drink. The outside decking area upstairs offers great views out to sea.
Beccles:
It’s a ‘spoons. A hotel ‘spoons. You know the drill.
It’s quite a nice ‘spoons, though. Obviously a pub/hotel for a long time, and it did provide the contrast in pricing to the Southwold pubs.
Heswall, Chesire:
It’s a ‘spoons, move along, nothing to see here.
Actually, I’ll comment here, instead of my usual line. It is a ‘spoons, so you know the drill, cheap food and booze.
However, it’s quite a new ‘spoons- they took over a previous pub just under a year ago, and the building was previously a telephone exchange, becoming a pub in 2007.
It still looks clean and fresh inside, and actually had more atmosphere than the Jug & Bottle nearby.
Glasgow:
It’s a ‘spoons, so nothing to see here. Crowded, as it’s right in the middle of Glasgow. Cheap beer etc.
Coventry:
It’s a ‘spoons. It’s an old bank. Nothing to see here, but it was very nice sat outside drinking cheap booze in the sunshine. We didn’t even go inside…
Bridgnorth, Shropshire:
It’s a ‘spoons. It’s in Bridgnorth though, so from the front it’s all traditional-looking, and it’s not bad at the front. As you progress back, it gets a bit spoons-shed. Other than that? Move along, nothing to see here. Cheap beer, cheap food.
Aberystwyth:
It’s a ‘spoons, so you know the drill. It’s quite a nice spoons, though, and the proximity to the station is really handy, both when we arrived at lunchtime and when we left for late breakfast: you can walk to the platform in less than a minute.
Shrewsbury, Shropshire:
It’s a ‘spoons. A very big spoons, right by the river, but a ‘spoons nonetheless. We dropped in for breakfast at a fraction of the cost of our hotel. Pleasant staff, no surprises.
Burton-upon Trent, Staffs:
‘spoons. You know the drill. Cheap food and beer. Nothing to see here.
