    Pint? No self-respecting craft beer bar serves pints….I’d have walked out.

    :lolol: “Mr Bingham's partner Una Cooper bought him a pubs' directory and he said he had been working his way through it since 2019.” Surely it’s ex-partner now?

    I’ve been in there 3 times I think. First time was when I first moved to Osborne Villas and was checking out the local pubs. Didn’t go back immediately. Second time went mid-afternoon and there was an old couple having a few beers on their way back from Tescos, each had 3 or 4 carrier bags of...

    Why does this have to turn into class war? I gave a reasonably good explanation why I don’t like ‘spoons, as others have done, and we get comments like this.

    You make a good and valid point. But if I was to say I don’t go into pub A because the beer is shit, or pub B because it’s full of idiots no one bats an eyelid. I say this about Whetherspoons and I’m branded a snob.

    Possibly. But having a gobshite owner makes Whetherspoons a much easier target though.

    As I have mentioned I have used the pubs. The one at Heathrow had some nice beers on and they seemed well kept. Gatwick I have eaten at.

    People often have pet hates which might seem inconsistent with their other actions. It’s not that weird in my opinion. With respect to ‘spoons though, I am pretty sure I don’t frequent any other bars with wife-beating posters and punters who smell of piss so I am consistent on this front.

    It’s great. A lovely beer for Sunday evening. Bottle Logic is a US brewery, I am sure you can find their beers in the UK. The make different styles which are all good BUT their stouts are incredible.

    I feel the reasons I gave are reasonable. And there are usually good alternatives nearby. Anyway, cheers.
