Called into this 2019 Good Beer Guide JDW last month and found the usual beers on offer plus a few decent guest beers. We opted for Maxim Dray & Horses and St Peter's Plum Porter both of which served well.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The William Jameson (JD Wetherspoon)

Bog-standard city-centre 'spoons with no distinguishing features (except that the staff seemed reasonably efficient in terms of serving and clearing away) and at least it has windows on two sides. Two banks of six handpumps, and allowing for a few duplicates there were still a few less-usual real ales, e.g. Matfen Magic from the High House Farm Brewery (£1.85).

As mentioned below this is a an old school Spoons consisting of a long narrow room with all the old style features from the dark blue and gold plastic external signage to the shelves of books inside.
The bar has two sets of six hand pumps which had the JDW Trio of Doom with the GK beers doubled up, Coach House Gunpowder Mild doubled up, a cider, Vale Gravitas, High House Farm Nettle Ale, Wickwar Falling Star and Sonnet 43 Seraphim Blonde. I went for the Nettle Ale (£1.99) which was in good nick but a dull beer. This was my favourite of the Sunderland Spoons.
