This former department store was converted into a pub by the mighty Wetherspoons Pub chain. It is large, comfortable, and extremely affordable. However, as you see from the map, it is too far from other venues to attract passing trade, especially from the young clubbers. In-line with Wetherspoons' policy this venue is strictly music-free.

Popped in on Saturday afternoon after last off the Christmas shopping and sat down in the dinning area, It was less than half full very few eating, Ordered the drinks one beer one coffee and one coke, While getting served with the drinks we were asked by Sam the barman to leave because we had our 14 year old daughter with us and we were not dinning which had not been a problem before, we returned the drinks then left
