A large and very nice looking Wethers. Its a long open plan place with the bar having 2 banks of 5 pumps. Sadly, once you took out the usual suspects you were left with a number "available soon" beers and only 3 guests on today. Pleasant to sit out front on a sunny day though this can be tempered by the fact there's a children's play area.

This Spoons was originally a hotel and pub called the Ashwood Park Hotel the layout inside was a lot different to the new Spoons layout and there was only keg beers on the bar from the Bass stable.
The Wye Bridge Inn is a decent looking Spoons that is at the bottom end of Buxton and it is fairly close to the river,once inside the bar faces and there are lots of different drinking areas,i got a seat at the A6 side of the pub and had a very nice drink that went down well at 10.00 in the morning i carnt remember the name of the beer as i dont usually write down what beers i have in Spoons.
I have been in this pub a few times and always enjoyed my drink,this Spoons is better that most i have been in.

It's difficult to be entirely positive about a Wetherspoons, because they're not "real pubs", but this one's a pretty good effort. It's helped by the nature of the building, a conversion of a nice big sandstone house on the banks of the River Wye just outside Buxton's town centre. Inside it's less of a drinking barn than most 'spoons, with tables and chairs dotted about. The beer selection was amazing when I visited, as it was their autumn beer festival. I noted one beer from the Buxton brewery - Kinder Downfall - though there may have been others, plus Thwaites Ribble Rouser, JW Lees Chocoholic and a chestnut-flavoured beer called Catagnale, brewed by Leonardo de Vicenzo specially for JD's beer festival. And that's less than half of the beers available on a Tuesday afternoon, and all at £1.85 a pint - no wonder the other pubs in Buxton are struggling to keep up!
