A big modern Spoons lurking behind Mecca bingo. For some reason the lighting is minimal, which made it feel more like a basement, not helped by my personal hatred - industrial ducting. Quite a good range of beers though, with guests Batemans XXXB, Roosters Yankee, Wainwright, Portobello APA and Rudgate Chocolate Stout alongside the usual suspects. Ok for what it is.

Hull possesses two branches of Wetherspoon's (that I'm aware of). Both are in the latest Good Beer Guide, but with so many decent pubs in the city, you have to question why.

This branch was packed on our Saturday evening visit, being one of the closest real ale pubs to the football stadium. After a long walk here, we were happy to finally settle down for a pint and after enduring a long queue and fairly clueless service, we managed to secure a table quite quickly.

The pub is a typical 'spoon's branch with a large open-plan interior. Multiple bouncers on the door seemed fairly friendly and were doing a good job in weeding out the underage drinkers. When ordering JHB, our young barman hadn't ever heard of the beer and had to question what it was. His search for the Black Dragon cider also proved to be beyond him.

The usual Wetherspoon's beers were on - Greene King Abbot, Ruddles Best & Sharp's Doom Bar. Guests were Theakston Old Peculier, Thwaite's Wainwright, Oakham JHB, Marston's Old Empire & Adnams Broadside. As mentioned, the cider was Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon.

As mentioned previously, the building itself does not look welcoming. It is now a hotel and I'm glad we didn't choose to stay here. A pretty poor branch of Wetherspoon's, but marginally the better of the 2 we visited.

The pub looks a bit grim from the exterior shots on here, but it didn't seem bad when I visited the other day. Perhaps they have done the front up a bit and as I was on the same side of the road I would not have noticed the office windows above as the canopy would have restricted my view.

At the bar, two banks of five hand pumps. There were 8 or 9 different ales split across the two pumps, including the Spoons regulars of Doom Bar, Abbot Ale and Ruddles. One was having the line cleaned but was still clipped. A TV screen near the bar lists "today's ales" and at the time of my visit these were (in addition to the standard trio) DB Four Poijt Blanc, Daleside Square Rigger, Newby Wyke Kingston Topaz, Great Newsome Ploughmans Pride and Partners Tabatha. I am sure I also spotted a pump of "Old Thumper" which was not on the board. Guest ales were all £2.15 a pint.

The pub itself is quite wide and has a long bar area to the rear of the pub. Looks like it is also a hotel so perhaps the office looking windows above are now part of the hotel. Not sure if there was an upstairs seating area but there were signs about a beer garden upstairs. Unusually, toilets are downstairs!

A better than average Spoons in terms of real ale at the time of my visit.
