Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Aneurin Bevan (JD Wetherspoon)

Suburban 'spoons set in older pub building in the middle of a forked main-road junction so anyone coming from the city will have to find their way through the graffiti-covered subways. The interior hasn't been fully opened out, so the bar area (back left) is unusually small, but much more space in the front seating / dining area (with a few more tables in a wide corridor). Also has a patio beer garden to the rear, enlivened with some flowers and shrubs. With two banks of four handpumps, the inevitable Ruddles, Doom Bar and Abbot were supplemented by Jaipur, Robinsons Trooper (£1.99), Hopweaver from Nethergate and Grainstore's Rutland Beast.

Visited 06/08/24

Large venue on a traffic island with large outside garden and ample parking. Bar area has pictures of the man himself plus fruit machines and TV's. Carpeted with some lino along length of bar which is to left from entrance. Large dining room off to the right of the entrance. And some tables behind the wall of the bar on the way out to the garden. Truth be told this has easily been the best beer place of the crawl (not hard that) but the venue itself feels a bit flat, a bit drab.

As you would expect for a Spoons, a decent cask offering and, on my visit comprising Sharp's Atlantic Pale Ale, Kirkstall Brewery’s Dissolution IPA, Keltek Brewery’s Miner’s Gold and Beartown’s Bear Ass as well as the usual Doom Bar, Abbot and Ruddles. Usual array of keg beers, comprising lagers (Bud Light, Carling, Stella, Coors, Corona, San Miguel, Budweiser & Carlsberg), ciders (Strongbow – regular and dark fruits, Stowford Press, Kopparberg strawberry and lime) with Guinness, Leffe Blonde, BrewDog Punk IPA, Shipyard Pale Ale and Worthington Creamflow. There were also some craft ciders for pouring half-pints or pints in the fridges, plus a vast array of bottled beers and cans of all varieties!

In spite of passing this JDW many times in the car, never visited this one previously. Worth a stop off but likely to be arriving by car or public transport as not really a walk from anywhere you are likely to be around here. I would generally have most Spoons as above average because of the cask beer choices available. I am just about talked into this place as a 6 but it only just about got there, I really had to twist my arm to do it as the venue itself really is a bit dull and it definitely would have been a 5 only if I had to sit in the big room with the masses of families there purely to get Spoons meals.

Out in the ‘burbs, oddly located in an island of an awful traffic junction, is the quietest Spoons I've ever been in during ‘normal’ drinking hours - a bit of a funereal atmosphere on my Sunday lunchtime visit. Fortunately the interior layout is a bit different to normal with three separate rooms which makes it an interesting place to have a nose round. I presume this must be a student haunt during the week? Else I can’t quite see how this one has survived the recent Timbo cull. The cask was good; three guests, my Peerless Dark was a solid pint (NBSS 3.5) as befits its GBG status. Only a GBG or JDW completist need schlep out this far. 5.5
