ROB Camra left this review about Standing Order (JD Wetherspoon)
Impressive ex Bank building with an island bar. Fairly typical Wetherspoons conversion of a bank building, very similar to the Bankers Draft in Sheffield. Loads of handpumps, all with pump clips on them, almost all showing the same 3 - 4 beers. Does have a couple of guest beers on, but you have to walk all the way round the bar to find out what they are. Whilst you're finding out what beer is on, it would also be a good idea to find out where there is someone serving and stand there. I've been in this pub loads of times and have left more often than not due to problems getting served. I sometimes think it would be quicker to walk to the Babington a couple of hundred yards away, buy a pint and bring it back here!
