The **Now Drinking** Thread

[Nicholas Sorrell]

Right now, whilst the pork is slowly roasting away, I've got a lovely DIPA from Verdant on the go "Too Many Opinions Water Down The Original Idea".

 

[Double07]

Irn Bru because I've no beers left and can't be bothered walking to the shop.

Chavving it up in chav-erspoons I see. I recognise the menus.

 

[Craig1981]

Nothing wrong with Wetherspoons. The one I was in was comfy and relaxed. Didn’t seem like a chav location to me

 

[MikeTheNative]

Weatherspoons vary vastly from location to location. My local is a pleasant enough place to be in but the food is pretty bad. They have a great selection of drinks at good prices as well.

 

[Martynt74]

Yeah it is very hit and miss.

I actually find the food reasonable in the one near me. Especially when you consider it's about £7 and includes a pint!

There is one in Cardiff I eat at as the food and place is decent, go 100 yards done the road and that Weatherspoons is horrible.

You know it's always had a reputation because it's cheap...

Anyway, I'm not judging anyone who goes - I go there all the time. It's pretty much the only place I'll go for drinks because they sell the only alcoholic drink I like (Bengali Tiger IPA in a can). I used to be a terrible lager/cider lout but I can't drink any of that these days as it makes me ill.

 

[Craig1981]

I wouldn’t go there to eat, way better places easily available to settle for average pub grub. But depending on the location it’s a cheap place to sit and relax with a few drinks. Plus you can order from table via app
