The Sir John Stirling Maxwell (JD Wetherspoon), Shawlands, Glasgow

This is an old school shop conversion that retains the old blue and gold signage on the shop front which is elevated from the main road. Inside it's a split level room where the front doors were all open. The bar is on the left and a few steps lead to the rear eating area. I got here just before Beer O' Clock on a Thursday morning for breakfast. Near where I sat there was a table of Daytime Brigade representatives who all sounded like Rab C Nesbitt and I still have no idea what they were talking about. The bar has ten hand pumps which had one available soon, one unused, Deuchars IPA, Abbot, Oakham JHB, Titanic Steerage, Adnam's Ghost Ship, Strathaven Clydesdale IPA, Brains SA and Exmoor Stag. I went for the Clydesdale IPA which was in good nick. I quite liked this one and it's GBG 2017 listed.
