The Commercial Rooms in Bristol

I went there a few months ago, I didn't realise it was a WSs, seemed well posh

You think THAT is posh?

The 'spoons in Exeter (University) has an ORANGERY.

A university with a Spoons in now that's a great idea.
I went to one in Portsmouth that was near the university and it was packed on a weekday early evening.

As well as the aforementioned orangery, it has a much more aesthetically pleasing clientele than your average spoons...

I've just googled it, that is an amazing building.

Snob.

What's it like inside?
I've walked past a few times but not been in, I like the V Shed on the waterfront.

only been there once, it was busy, I actually thought it was some sort of club, not a pub

Don't you mean M Shed? Bristol is a great place, going back in December

Snob.

Finding the 19 year old blonde girls at a posh Uni, nicer to look at, than the elderly denizens of Spoons George Street, has nothing to do with snobbery!



(I am though, as it goes)

Yes there are a few bars at the city centre end of the harbour, M Shed is the museum.

Here are a few pretty impressive Spoons buildings.

One of my favourite Spoons is the Crosse Keys in Gracechurch St. The building - another old banking hall - really is magnificent and many of the original features have been retained. Interestingly the site was a Coaching Inn before the bank was built, so I guess what goes around comes around.........

Being Spoons, it's very cheap for City of London too.

Not been to the Louisiana.

You are correct about M Shed, it has studios for hire and a function suite, just been reading about it.
I have been there but only to the museum, I thought it was really interesting.

I'm looking forward to another visit for our away match, staying down there for the weekend.

Quite amusing how many run Spoons down, i suppose some of it has to do with the owners political view, but he has brought some fine listed establishments which if the business goes down will stand him in good stead for selling.

Wetherspoons - Poor staff, Poor food , Poor customers

Sad places, I'd rather have a pint less and go somewhere nice with some atmosphere. Their food is just brought in slop, you'd be better to have your ready meal before you leave the house

The domestic violence helpline poster by the door of the George Street 'spoon was a little off putting.

My friends are going, but not staying. Last time I went to The Orchard Inn, near Nova Scotia, really good beer and friendly locals
Wish I was going, but it clashes with something else unfortunately

The Wetherspoon's in Tunbridge Wells,The Opera House, is one of the most aesthetically appealing pubs you could find. The clientele is far from Yuppie though, to put it politely.

You are putting it very politely. The clientele in that grief hole are like extras from The Walking Dead.
