During my recent visit here I received a very polite service and found a nice comfy seat to watch some football on a big plasma screen and read my newspaper. There was also another big plasma and various normal TV sets dotted around the pub. It was very quite with four people sitting at the bar and two people playing on the pool table.
There's a choice of very bog standard lagers and Greene King IPA which is not very imaginative, but it was a surprise to see any ale in a pub called The Wishing Well.
The smoking area advertised at the rear of the building is actually a car park with two benches in it overlooking Asda. There were another 2 old Irish gentlemen sitting outside bringing the grand total of people in the pub to eight, one of which was the barmaid and another I think was the landlady. Something that I have never seen before were the smoking heaters that cost 20p for 5 minutes and £1 for 25 minutes… Whatever next?
I didn't have an awful time, but this is not a great boozer and I'll probably never return as there are far better places nearby.
