Quinno _ left this review about The John Francis Basset (JD Wetherspoon)
Fairly modern Spoons (a 2011 opener) in a tidy-looking building. Grey and white shades inside, an unusual sloping boxed bar upper with a random silver tree in the middle of the raised seating area. Much is made of the size and yes it’s certainly bigger than you’d expect for a town of Camborne’s size but on both my evening visits the place had plenty of bums-on-seats. Football on the TV, unusual. Three guest ales, my Exeter Grubber was fine (NBSS 3). Fairly swift app service despite looking understaffed at first glance so it’s a well-run operation. I stayed here for a couple of nights and had an excellent room for a very reasonable price.

Ridiculously-large Wetherspoon's with hotel attached. A reasonable selection of ales and plenty of room, although service was a bit patchy. Tidy, but not much atmosphere.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The John Francis Basset (JD Wetherspoon)
Very imposing Wetherspoon hotel, housed in the palazzo-style George's Hall (later Scala Cinema), next door to the equally expansive bar in the original Market House. Nine of ten handpumps in operation, with a reasonable selection of local, national and festival ales (from which I went for the Cornish Crown, £2.19).
