ROB Camra left this review about The Scarborough Flyer

A JDW clone on two levels. The rear area has some booths and what looks like a dance floor. There's also a pool table and a table football. There's an array of different seating across the huge pub. The only beer available was Bombardier which was just about OK. It was very quiet on a Monday evening and felt empty due to the large space. It's not great, but we've been in a lot worse.

A Stonegate attempt at a Spoons clone that doesn't really work - a large soulless barn of a place from the 'decorated by numbers' playbook and littered with sports TVs. Ales on were just Wainwight and GK IPA. A reluctant 6 - I suppose some people must like it.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Barbican

Large town centre bar with a modern look. Extra seating area off to one side and a pool table at the far end. Standard Stonegate menu. Starting to get noisy when I visited early on a Friday night. Slightly surprised to see four handpumps, three of which were on, with Greene King IPA, Hardy & Hansons St George's and Courage Best (£2.05) available.

Two rooms on a split level, the counter runs down one side apart from the bit with a table football table and a booth in funny leatherette in the window. Conventional high and low tables and chairs with a couple of long tables with equally long benches each side in the middle of the room. Decor is a bit modern industrial in places but mixed with chandeliers and gilded mirrors. Lurking among the forest of tall keg founts are four hand pumps with an unsurprising choice of Greene King IPA, Courage Best a St Georges special badged from Hardy & Hanson so probably Greene King IPA again, and one reversed clip. I didn't complain at £1.50 a pint served by very pleasant bar staff and the beer quality was fine, so not quite as expected given the style of the place. Cask may be a new thing as it was proclaimed on a small blackboard on the counter. The pool table at the back appears to take up a dance floor judging by the glitter-ball and lights above and a DJ edifice beside it.
