Wetherspoons

Just got back from the new Wetherspoons. As the saying goes; you've seen one, you've seen them all.
That said, the interior looks a lot better for what they've done. Much bigger and ten times better in terms of decor.
Also, some nice pictures around - more than a few featuring local historic info and imagery that I'd never seen before. So interesting from that point of view. Nice use of Ewbank adverts and old photographs - I'd love to know where they got them from.

Why on earth would you want to know after speaking of the chain is such contemptuous tones?
I thought the place held no interest for you.(You want to know a lot for someone who professes to dislike the chain).

yeh aint very quick on you two.Um that was puzzling me too Margaret
I had a full English breakfast with a friend on Sunday at the one in Preston and we were stuffed for a tenner.
Decent grub and no washing up, it works for me every time after a heavy night out!

you might like to think that Cashy......I know exactly what his game is
....and it's not shove ha'penny.
I do hope these aren't the same Ha'pennies used by Retlaws Mate ! (From the "What was it called ?" thread)
Maybe have a few in Wetherspoons tonight,be back in there from tomorrow,taking lady for tea and making a full night of it then .Might even go through the drinks menu list in alphabetical order i.e. a absolute vodka,b brandy 
dont want to upset Cashy even more about his 1.95 coke but a Double Lambs rum and coke is £3.40,just £1.45 more than his coke
Ive been in more than 50 wetherspoons around the country and the food is just about average but worth it.
It will be good that accy webbers can try it post good and bad comments on this tread but one person that wont be in there is TEALEAF,although he's posted more replies on here than anyone

Went in this morning for a coffee, thought it looked very nice. Got an orange and water and a coffee the price was £1.95, so didn't think it was to bad. Going back this evening to sample a few alcholic beverages (sp). But got me wondering though, how many people will start meeting under the clock again. Used to do that late 70s early 80s, and guess what? Am doing it tonight for the first time in years.
I wonder, Bee, if you could confirm what it is like on the inside. With the gallant exception of the brave Lord Cashy who ventured within yesterday, no one on here is prepared to confirm exactly what lies in that grim interior.
No matter...I know. It's a terrible mish-mash of IKEA/MFI style tables - a little bit more chunky, perhaps, togeather with the sort of seating you would find in a run down Italian railway station waiting room, some cheap lighting of the sort you used to get in Woolworths, a tacky pinewood bar, all backed up round the back with racks of industrial microwaves knocking out the same cheap emulsified fat as is found in the waste bins at your local kebab shop.
it's clientele, no doubt, will be those who have made the Mac's Cab ride up from the ASDA; they are the sort of people who you would find in one of those cheap zombie films. Think of 'Dawn of the Dead', or '28 days Later', mindless creatures who know no better than to fight and to feast on whatever old muck is placed in front of them.
Tealeaf, c'mon, you really aren't trying. You can be far more condescending than that.
I've seen you do it.
It must be wonderful to have such a jaundiced view of your fellow Accywebbers and the people of Accrington.
Did you take an exam in being bitter and twisted, or is it a natural skill?

Margaret, he does come from "Church"
