The Falcon (JD Wetherspoon), High Wycombe

This is one of the few Wetherspoons that was an original pub before being spoonified. There has been an Inn on this site since the 17th Century and if my memory serves me correctly was called the Falcon when I worked in Wycombe in the late 80's. This means that it has a bit more character than the traditional barn conversions or new stainless steel and glass builds that a lot of the spoons are, and benefits from a wooden interior with plenty of alcove seating areas. However it is a bit grubby and in need of a bit of TLC and there was definitely a stale odour apparent on entering on Saturday lunchtime. But the beers were good, 9 handpumps dispensing a real cider as well as Loddon Beers from the Oxford Brewer, and the couple of Loddon Ales I tried were very good.
