The Lord High Constable of England (JD Wetherspoon), Gloucester

A fairly decent ‘Spoons in a former commercial building adjacent to the revitalised docks complex, one of several modern watering holes in the area. There was a good crowd in when we visited, a pleasant atmosphere and reasonably efficient staff. Ales on were Ruddles, Abbott, Doombar, Cotswold Jouster, Red Racer and All Dog Oatmeal stout. Not a bad visit.

Decent Spoons which was pretty packed when we called in. 5 guests plus the usual's on. Had a decent pint of White Knight. Glad to have called in.

Vast shiny modern interior in a historic docks building. It’s a pleasant place to spend some time either inside or out overlooking the boats and warehouses. beer selection was a tad disappointing for such a prominent Spoons though, along with the usual suspects the guests appeared to be Old Peculier and Rosies Cider. Beware the screaming kids running around during school holidays too.

I quite liked this Spoons as it was nicely fitted out, with lots of quirky features. We managed to get a booth down the left hand side, as this was an early Sunday afternoon visit, plus we had a good view of the pub. I especially liked the textured timber panels along the bar front, parquet floor and the lamps hanging from ropes. Two banks of six pumps with the majority doubled up, we went for the Battledown Tipster a good session IPA at £2.15 a pint and it was in great condition.

A new Spoons in the rather nice rejuvenated dock area. Housed in what I assume is an original building, it's a single long room broken up by brick partitions. There is no false ceiling so the roof beams are pleasingly exposed. They've been restrained on the nautical paraphernalia, limiting themselves to rope dangling from the beams, olde worlde lampshades and a large mechanical contraption hanging from the ceiling. To the rear is a more intimate lounge area leading on to a very nice beer garden overlooking the docks replete with an old crane; a pleasant spot. The kitchen was closed due to issues, so it was deathly quiet inside (makes you release just how much of JDW’s trade is food-based nowadays). 12 pumps on the chrome topped bar with a fair amount of doubling up leaving just two guest ales. However my Titanic was in excellent shape. I really rather liked it here and would want to visit again.
