Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Regal Moon (JD Wetherspoon)
Grand cinema conversion overlooking The Butts, although the slightly split-level interior hasn't retained as many original features as some of this ilk. Older (i.e. darker and more traditional furniture)and mostly movie-themed decorative features. Excellent selection from the two banks of six handpumps, with six pre-festival beers (including my Peerless Sup, £2.31, but perhaps a bit 'end of the barrel') and three other guests in addition to the trio of Ruddles, Doom Bar and Abbot.

Bit of a beauty, a converted 1930’s cinema. Inside has lovely dark wood curved walls with prints of old stars from the big screen everywhere, ornate pillars and a real jazz-era feel. As mentioned below, it’s quite sprawling, but in a good way. The bar is against the right wall and has Art Deco stylings (love the raised lit box) and a mannequin playing a Wurlitzer above, which can give you a startle if you don’t notice it straight off. A plethora of guest cask, my Phoenix Porter was in good shape (NBSS 3.5). I really liked it here and could have easily stayed longer, next time I will. A really good Spoons and it really should be in the GBG. 8.5

The Regal Moon is a huge sprawling Wetherspoons pub housed in an old cinema. The long bar stretching down the right-hand wall faces a sea of open plan seating. At the rear is a raised seating area that leads to a split-level patio area out the back. Back inside the pub there are a couple of plasma screens that were showing muted horse racing, which is surprising for a Spoons. As was the presence of a large projector screen, which was unused.
The bar is stocked with standard draught and the twelve hand pumps in two banks of six were all drawing different ales. The usual JDW cheap food menu is available and I found the service to be very quick, even though the pub was quite busy, especially for early on a Monday evening. I would return here as this is one of the better Spoons I have visited.
