The New Worlds End, Pudsey

Lovely old building up a side road off Lowtown; shame about the interior, a riot of laminate and pallet wood with little charm. Over two levels in an L shape, the counter is up some steps at the back right, a couple of T-Bars is about it for beer. Rough wood tables on industrial angle iron bases matched with machinist’s stools and tractor seats on old bases forms the majority of the furniture, a couple of banquettes provide a less arse numbing option. Plenty of screens and a pool table (up the steps and to the left) for delectation. The rear part, in Booth’s Yard, has the jokey “Wimpyspoons” sign. It could be so good but isn’t.
