Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Bear (JD Wetherspoon)
Old coaching inn, still retaining some character externally, although the interior has been comprehensively remodelled and refurbished by Wetherspoon. However, this still has a semi-traditional look, including the mezzanine area above the main entrance. There was a mostly duplicated selection from the two banks of six handpumps, with Brill Gold, Dark Fruits Porter from Salem (£2.75), Vale's Electric Sheep and the Double Swan from Elgood in addition to the usual Greene King IPA, Doom Bar and Abbot.

This is quite an upmarket Spoons dating from Spring 2010. It's one of those that was originally a pub rather than a converted shop or office. It was covered in scaffolding on my visit but still open. This prevented any chance of a picture. It's a large square room with the bar at the back and an assortment of furniture. I completely missed spotting an upstairs area! On my Friday afternoon it was crowded mostly with people eating.
The bar has ten hand pumps which had GK IPA & Abbot, Doom Bore, Twickenham Autumn Red doubled up, White Horse Village Idiot, Bingham's Twyford Tipple & Old, Everard's Inbetween and Loddon Hullabaloo. I went for the Bingham's Old (£2.85) which was in great nick but pricey for a Spoons. The standard guest price here is £2.55.
Apart from being a bit expensive I thought this was a pretty good Spoons.
