] A cinema conversion as described, though I felt the atmosphere was rather lacking. Walking in gives an impression of grandeur, though this wears off once you’re in and realise how crowded it is, both in terms of numbers and how close together and regimented the tables are. That said it’s open, airy and not too loud. The young staff were professional, knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. Two ales from Old Dairy on, Blue Top and Red Top, plus the Trio of Doom, so very apt for the pub’s eponymous dedicatee. Otherwise, a bog standard Spoons, worth a visit and a good place to start or end a crawl.

Small(ish) but striking Art Deco cinema conversion, with the interior lighting (whether original or not) certainly adding to the atmosphere... Apart from that, the interior is slightly troublesome by having six steps down from the entrance, but otherwise much as you would expect. Six of seven handpumps in use, offering a fairly pedestrian selection from which the 'international brewer' Red Racer Session IPA (£2.09) was the only unusual real ale.

A decent score here for the building and original Art Deco design ceilings. Beer wise not a lot choice on our visit, so went for the Old Dairy Copper Top. Once through the main doors, you descend a short flight of steps into one large open plan room, with the bar running across the back wall. The pub was busy on our Saturday evening visit with the majority of customers chomping away through the Spoons menu.
