please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Came in after a game at Fir Park and found it to be decent.

As you expect it is a 'spoons but this one was warm, the bar was well staffed, all 5 ales were on and the clientele was better than usual.

Certianly looked nicer than the 2 pubs between the station and here as well as a safer option.

Standard spoons but I enjoyed my visit.

Went last Sunday after a funeral . Might as well have stayed at the cemetery. more fun there!

It was dirty. Sticky barcounter. Foam hanging outta the banquettes.
Broken glass on the floor. Dirty cloths on the counter.Food took ages to arrive and then was told 'no bacon' for the burger.

However, the staff were pleasant and doing their best in the circumstances.
Needs a good clean out and refurb.

Still good value though but Tim Martin needs to get personal with the area managers.

Visited on a sunday afternoon, plenty of seats & tables available in the spacious bar. Beer was poor (York Guzzler) food was poor ( Sunday Roast Specials, half chickens) all 3 didn't looked roasted, althougn were cooked, they looked pale and unappetising, although chicken tikka and vege burger, which were chosen by my kids,were fine. Pub itself was fine, and toilets were ok, but poor food, disappointing beer, and poor food service put me off visiting again.

Standard Wetherspoon pub, five ales on when I was there, one of which was 'off', but they left the pump-clip facing the customers anyway.

If you go into J.D.s regularly you'll know what to expect - fairly bland this one though.

Good value, and not a bad pub overall.

Not a bad "pub" bit like a canteen but sells a cheap pint and very good value meals and snacks.
Very popular with the local lassies out for a good night.
Smoking and non smoking areas plus spotless loos.
Not a bad place for an hour or 2 with friends!
