    Default Micropub for Leamington?

    Hope the planning application goes through: https://www.leamingtoncourier.co.uk/...gton-1-8825134

    Sounds interesting.
    But I still like Wetherspoons, where you can get a lunch and as many coffee top ups as you want.

    Not a big fan of the Coventry (Trinity St) Wetherspoons Margaret, you get some very odd characters in there at times. Once in a while I go past there before 10AM and there are plenty already well oiled.

    I like my local these days, but it's one of those pubs that I wouldn't want to use at night, if you know what I mean. Perfectly good for an afternoon canal-side session though. And yesterday was rather pleasant. Unfortunately, the Long Haired General refused me permission to visit again today.

    Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.

    The food at Weatherspoons is ok, but I've never really drunk there - they never seem to do a good job of looking after their real ales.

    I don't frequent Wetherspoons much, but the one in Warwick seems good. The girls serving are very efficient and friendly.
    I went in there a few weeks back with my son for a quick midday meal, which we both enjoyed. No drunko's , it seems a people friendly atmosphere. I don't drink ales or beer, maybe the odd cider or Guinness. I don't know what it's like at night though, I don't stay up that late.

    Early evenings are ok - still plenty of families, but the evening drinkers soon start arriving & the atmosphere doesn't always change for the better!
