Aka 'Spoons, Nelson Square to shut up shop? Overheard some bloke ballooning about it today...Surely not, piss poor if we can't even maintain one of those.

 

As an aside, what's with Tiggis these days? It's seemingly packed, well busy at least every weekend - with what mostly favvers the cast of Quadrophenia, thirty six years on...

All with fast-food squelched carpets.

 

With a view of turd-strewn beaches?

Obvs.

Laden, not strewn

not a fan of wetherspoons tbh but some are ok

 

one that isnt is the elephant and castle one

 

fcuking grim

Not a big fan either though I do like the one in Harrogate

 

I reckon a good number of people have gone down those stairs after a few

The waterhouse in Manc is an example of a decent one

 

Moon under water is fucking grim as is the one on a piccadilly

 

They do some decent ale mind, at decent prices, so if I have to go in one, like hull or Wigan away, I will

I heard they are turning the Swan into a Lloyds bar and the owners of Level nightclub are having the spinning mule.

Just a wetherspoons with music/sports on the telly.

 

Same prices, offers etc

Like Zico says, they do decent ale at good prices, I'm not particularly fussed you have to rub elbows with riff-raff or the decors naff, I'm there to sup, not hob-nob or get ideas for Grand Designs.

Ale can be more expensive.

 

One in Bury facing bus station is a Lloyds, Picture House. The bar is where the stage used to be. To be fair they have done a good job with the deco in some of them, Bolton obviously the exception. One Glasgow was an old bank, even kept the vault.

 

Spoons also employ people with disabilities, gives people a chance to work with support. Know a couple of mates of my lad who work in them.

Lloyds in Bury used to be a Chicago Rock and was the prime location for Grab A Granny.

Bet the young Frank Spencer cleaned up in there when he had dreads.

The Green Ayre spoons has been shut for yonks in Lancaster for a refurb, never known building work take so long. Locals are saying it wont open again because it's prone to flooding.
