Quinno _ left this review about The King's Head (JD Wetherspoon)

It's a converted hotel and has a fairly rambling layout with a number of discrete rooms and annexes, some of which are mildly grand. Just two guest ales, my Theako OP was fine (NBSS 3) and under 2 quid so can’t grumble too much – but even so, not great. GBG listed but maybe that tells you more about the puddle the local CAMRA branch is fishing in. No food as the kitchen was having a crisis, so a slightly odd atmosphere as a result. Didn’t get on with this one.

Impressive Spoons at the Market Square.

Alas, I was that disappointed with a choice of Ruddles, Abbot and Doom Bar that I went in search of better elsewhere.

As with many of my endeavors, this proved a mistake.

This Wetherspoon's branch stands on Monmouth's main square overlooking the impressive Shire Hall at the square's centre. The King's Head Hotel itself still has accommodation and retains many of the features of the hotel, with some rather grand rooms in its split-level interior.

The bar can be found up a few stairs in a room to the right-hand side. The usual 'spoon's ales were available - Greene King Abbot, Ruddles Best & Sharp's Doom Bar. Sharp's Sea Fury was also on as a guest, alongside Adnams Broadside & Portobello Central Line Red. The cider was Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon, which at least gave me the opportunity to avail myself of a CAMRA voucher.

In common with all Monmouth pubs, the ale selection was uninspiring, but the interior is certainly of some interest here. If you have time and it is open, the Shire Hall itself is also worthy of a visit to see the town's old courtroom.
