The Walnut Tree, Oldmixon, Weston Super Mare

E TA left this review about The Walnut Tree

A large, dire roadside chav magnet with less charm than most chain pubs. There is a large car park which was difficult to enter due to racer boys thraching their old bangers up and down, and a group of elderly oxygen thieves resting on their dole poles right in the gate. Inside, there are 2 main bar areas, one more of a sports bar with a pool table and large TV showing live football, the other equally noisy and malodorous; this one has a small open fireplace. There is also apparently a skittle alley, but we didn’t get to see it. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the majority of the customers were self-important tourists and mouthy morons from the local pool of unemployables, many shirtless, most charmless. Food is standard chain pub-style fare at reasonable prices in contrast to the beer prices, plus they offer well-priced Sunday lunches. The over-priced beer range included no real ale, just Heineken, Amstel, Neck Oil, John Smith’s, Moretti and Fosters. Best avoided.
