We tried three of their cask ales on our visit, Elgoods Cambridge Gold, Brummie Bitter and Sambrooks Pumphouse. The Sambrooks resembled some sort of coloured water, awful stuff. Luckily for me the young barman exchanged it for a pint of Stella to accompany my Thursday night curry. The service on our visit was good and it was no trouble for the waiting staff to find us, when we switched tables to get away from a spoilt child kicking off.

Yes I agree with others not much interesting character here, with the possible exception of the visible cellar with barrels on the first floor , but then that’s not the point of the Parkgate Centre and it’s associated modern and shiny associated bars and restaurants. The developers clearly went for the glass and metal interpretation of modern architecture but that does give modern bright clean spaces. Even the micropub round the corner is one of the most modern in decor I have seen.
Fortunately back in this ‘spoons the central log burner wasn’t necessary on another day where this years summer continues to break temperature records but the very pleasant outside fence enclosed seating area direct onto the pavement certainly was and was being well utilised on this Saturday evening.
All twelve pumps in operation but with quite a few house and regional offerings taking up several. However there was still a good choice of ales outside these and my pint of Titanic Raspberry Pale was in good form.
If you want a traditional pub round here then the M&B owned Saracens Head a short walk down the road is probably your only option. But with their beer range I would hazard a guess that it would not be too long before you are back here or the small micropub around the corner.

As stated below this is a modern Spoon's which is part of the shopping centre and as such it is worth noting that they can't serve alcohol until 10. It resembles a coffee house to be honest! An enormous log burner heats the place and it was a bit smoky on my last visit. Inveralmond Bard, Saddle Black, Slaters Stafford Hop amongst the beers on offer.
