Mid afternoon - busy but plenty of room - the capacity of this place must be in four figures? The irony was not missed by our group of micropub enthusiasts.

Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Up & Udder4.00UndrinkableI had noticed that this beer seemed to be a fixture here for over 2 weeks so I passed a sample around. Awful. Second Old Dairy beer ive had here that was undrinkable.

This building opened as a Wetherspoon's on Tuesday 29 August 2017 and is probably the largest Wetherspoon's in the country. It was designed as a dance hall by architect Stanley Davenport Adshead in 1903 and in later years operated as a casino. On two levels with a bar with 12 handpumps at ground level and another on the 1st floor balcony with 6 handpumps. Open-to-view kitchen on the ground floor. There is a ground floor rear patio and an upstairs outside covered decking area for fair weather drinking and sea and sand views. Re-opened Saturday 7th December 2024 after a 3 week closure refurbishment.

We have visited this pub 212 times, seen 183 different beers and tried 152 of them.
