It's a Weatherspoons ... what do you expect? I never plan to go to a Weatherspoons, it just happens as a matter of convenience. Food there was alittle flavourless and rather salty. I assume this is because cheap quality ingredients needs more salt so it doesn't taste cheap ... The only thing that really impressed me was the garlic bread pizza. I think I could just eat this over and over ...

The Welsh flag is a top addition, the staff were friendly and menus are available at tables. I sat comfortably for a refreshing drink of Black Grape Vodka, although it had not been mixed properly as I could taste vodka too strong at the bottom.

Ground level access and it has a lift in the building. Lots of seating.

Extremely hot inside, no air conditioning. Tables hadn't been cleared at all during our 2 hour visit. Staffing levels needs to be better, especially when events are happening!

One of your doormen was bang out of order, he literally pushed one of our disabled veteran's out and told him he was not allowed back into the premises all because the doorman was physically moving people back behind the barrier you have outside. Now i understand the barrier is there for a purpose and it was extremely busy. All the disabled veteran said to him was do you mind not pushing me to which the doorman became more physical shoving him outside. This is bang out of order and doesn't look good on the weatherspoons image. The doorman in question was mouthing off I'm ex 3 Parachute regiment so it won't be difficult to work out which one. He then proceeded to keep staring at the disabled veterans in an intimidating manor. This will be taken further up the chain. Absolutely appalling treatment.
