The Three Tuns (JD Wetherspoon), Thirsk

Visited last Thursday afternoon. Seven pumps offering the Spoons Trio, Witchfinder General by Moorhouse's, Blonde Witch by Moorhouse's, something by Rudgate and Black Dragon Cider (which had a paper pump label stuck over a proper one). All guest ales £1.99 a pint (£1 for a half) except for the cider. Not as busy as it has been on previous visits but a fair few customers in. The horrific kids' play area from the room at the front appears to have gone and is now a quieter seating area. In fact it almost felt like a pensioner exclusive room. The guy serving seemed a bit odd. A woman serving food then went and did the hourly check on the bogs. Which was nice. I'm sure she washed her hands afterwards. The Witchfinder General I had was pretty unremarkable. Every now and then there seemed to be a slight whisky taste to it, and I am not sure if it was meant to have. An OK Spoons but the ale selection is not always as good as it could be.

Nice old building that has been given the Spoons makeover. 4 guests on when I called in.
