George Hotel (JD Wetherspoon), Bewdley

Ten handpumps on the bar with one out of action and two displaying coming soon. We were ok though as there was a Tom Woods beer on one of the handpumps. An impressive building, so defo worth a visit.

Historic inn, given the makeover as a Wetherlodge hotel but quite a decent job done. The exterior was hidden under scaffolding due to refurbishment when I visited, but as the signs made clear it was open for business as usual. Additional dining area beyond the bar, and also extended via a side conservatory. Not all of the eight handpumps were working (despite the annoying impression given by unreserved clips) but the cask Sir Ruan from the current American craft brewer range (£2.50) was in good form.

great pub,great prices,great location1

As far as Wetherspoon's go this is quite good. I've been in before JDW took it over and they've made a decent job of the renovation. Busy and noisy on a Friday night, quiet and calm for breakfast. The rooms upstairs are compact but clean and easily good enough for somewhere to crash for the night. Dare I say (after being directed by a member of staff) the ladies' toilets were impressive (see photo, taken by my wife I might add) - a conversion of the old ballroom it is a big open area with chandeliers, a fireplace and some leather sofas! Cask ales were Oracle, Copper Fox, Ducking Stool, Ruddles Best and Abbot. I'd stay there again but I don't usually go out of my way to go to a Wetherspoon's (because I like pub diversity or I'm a pub snob?)

An historic hotel now owned by JDWs.Plenty of wood panneling in this long and quite narrow bar area. Real ales are good and you have the standard JDW menu . Get here early if you wish to eat . The place fills up rapidly early evening and you may not get a seat. The food is better than most spoons. The staff were quick at clearing the tables ,which is unusual. A really good effort.
