In common with most Barrow pubs, this branch of Wetherspoon's had its fair share of drunken people. Although, it was much quieter than many of the town's other pubs, both in terms of volumes of people and the noise levels. The denizens of Barrow seem to like a little loud music. So, perhaps that was why there were less customers here.
Having negotiated the bouncers on the door, my next challenge was to get served. A barman had clocked me, but carried on doing what he was doing until a bar manager instructed him to serve me! The usual Greene King Abbot, Ruddles Best & Sharp's Doom Bar were all on, along with 3 guests - Summerskills Devon Dew, Magpie Jay IPA & Bowman Wallops Wood. The cider was Weston's Old Rosie.
A group of young girls opposite me looked a little worse for wears. They were sat at a table full of pitchers containing all manner of strange colourful concoctions. I would imagine that there would be a few hangovers for them on the Saturday morning.

not the most interesting spoons and found the beer choice uninspiring really but I suspect you'll struggle to find better places in desolate Barrow
