oily Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Wetherspoons food is vile. Really, really vile. What have you eaten that you didn't like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffandy Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 'Spoons don't show live sport as far as I know. The Rawson Spring shows live Sky Sports matches on the big screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinder Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 We go to the Sir Francis Newton (near the hospital) on a Thursday after circuits and it's usually pretty decent. Wetherspoons serve pretty much the same menu everywhere. Might check this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffandy Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 As Wetherspoon often choose interesting names for their pubs, how about we get the ball rolling with a few ideas? Be good if we could get a pub named by SF readers and contributers! I'll start, how about, "The Busted Overdraft" Seriously, maybe a throw back to the steelworks that used to be on the site? Maybe...."The Steckel Mill" (google it if you want the steel definition) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe...."The Steckel Mill" (google it if you want the steel definition) True dat. When I was in the north east they wanted to name the new Middlesbrpugh Spoons 'Ironopolis' in reference to the steel mills which used to be there. However, they came under challenge from a once-monthly nightclub night of the same name in the area so backed down. It ended up being called 'The Swatters Carr' due to an old cricket pitch nearby. But maybe chance for them to ressurect what was quite a cool name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micketh85 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 There has been a wetherspoon's in the metro centre at Gateshead for years now!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DnAuK Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 There has been a wetherspoon's in the metro centre at Gateshead for years now!!! Yeah. Strangely enough, though, they don't do the same deals as other Wetherspons - as in the burger and beer etc. Not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegas1 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yeah. Strangely enough, though, they don't do the same deals as other Wetherspons - as in the burger and beer etc. Not sure why. Because it's a premium location, the reason why their branches in airports and train stations (and the one in the NEC in Birmingham) can charge more. The one in Leeds station is expensive, you are best off going out the door and going 100 yards up the road to the Becketts Bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilge Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 ...you are best off going out the door and going 100 yards up the road to the Becketts Bank. Or to a proper pub instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
