The Plaza (JD Wetherspoon), Rugeley

The Plaza is a converted cinema that is quite uninteresting around the entrance, but at the rear it opens into a split-level seating area with a mezzanine and Art Deco décor. The rear wall is an impressive double height back window, and out the back is a well-tended patio garden. The bar counter up the right supports the usual standard and premium keg alongside two banks of six hand pumps. Adnam’s Broadside was available alongside Salopian’s Oracle, Half Life and Hop Twister, plus the usual three suspects. Brains SA and Adnam’s Broadside were ‘coming soon’. It’s OK in here if you can bag a seat at the rear.
