Te Earl of Dalkeith is a relatively small Wetherspoons with some seating around the entrance before a couple of steps that lead up to lots of high tables and a flight of stairs at the rear that climb to a U-shaped seating area with balcony that overlooks below. The bar on the right wall supports standard and premium keg and there are two banks of six hand pumps. These were drawing Phipps NBC, Grainstore’s Zahara and JW Lees Plum Pudding alongside the usual JDW suspects.

Usual Wetherspoons decor, but not uninviting. My past couple of visits have seen Black Swan Mild and Rutland Osprey Bitter amongst the ale options. Has a covered patio area down the side of the pub itself. As always with Spoons, good prices for food and drink.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Earl of Dalkeith (JD Wetherspoon)
As noted by others, this is an old-school 'spoons with lots of dark wood furniture and panelling. As a result, the bar is rather gloomy (despite being partially opened out at first floor level), although the seating / dining area off to one side has lots of windows. Further space in the 'L'-shaped upstairs room. Fair choice from eight of ten handpumps, and the Yeovil Star Gazer was fine value at just £1.99 (and the food is still cheaper than normal too).

This is very much an old school 1990s Spoons. It was a furniture shop and consists of an L shaped room with the bar on the right and an upstairs area that I didn't look into. The fact it's not a long narrow room makes it a bit brighter than some of their outlets from that era.
I noticed that the standard breakfast here is 40p cheaper than the norm and some other food items were slightly cheaper.
The bar has two sets of six hand pumps. One set had the JDW Trio Of Doom, two ciders and Vale Gravitas and the other had Wychwood Hobgoblin & Hobgoblin Gold, Osprey Rutland Panther & Rutland Osprey, Adnam's Broadside and White Park White Gold. I had time to try the Rutland Osprey and the Hobgoblin Gold both in excellent condition at £2.15.
Although this place is looking a bit tired I thought it was a decent Spoons.
