The Miles Thompson (JD Wetherspoon), Kendal

Kendal's Spoons looks to me like it was an old factory but according to the JDW web site it was previously South Lakeland District Council offices and prior to that public baths. It's certainly unusual with the bar area on the left and to the right up some steps or a lift a dining area. I wasn't too happy with the fact that the bar area only had tall tables and chairs as I had come here for breakfast but having ventured upstairs I did notice some low tables and chairs further back. Nevertheless the only low tables are completely away from the bar. There are two sets of five hand pumps which had two available soon, the two GK beers and six festival beers. It was a joy to see the complete absence of Doom Bore. I went for the Titanic S.E.A (£2.29 festival price) which was in good nick. This seemed like a reasonably good Spoons to me apart from the furnishings issue.
