Graham Coombs left this review about The Society Rooms (JD Wetherspoon)
A modern Spoons in an office block, very handy for Maidstone East station. Despite the lack of history and architecture, this felt like a rather more pleasant place for a pint than its central cousin, and it was certainly friendlier and more efficient. There were also three good local guest ales on - two from Tonbridge and one from Three Acre.

One of two branches of Wetherspoon's in Maidstone, this one is convenient for the start of or finish to a crawl from Maidstone East station.
Located in an ugly looking office block, the L-shaped interior feels quite modern, light and airy. There is an outdoor courtyard, used by both smokers and for those that like drinking/eating al fresco.
The usual trio of Greene King Abbot, Ruddles Best & Sharp's Doom Bar were on, alongside 3 guests - Fuller's London Pride, Thornbridge Jaipur & Twickenham Naked Ladies. Ciders were Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon & Weston's Old Rosie.
Customers in here seemed a bit rough and ready. Their language was choice. However, service was efficient.
Apart from its convenient location, there's not really much to recommend this one.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Society Rooms (JD Wetherspoon)
Modern 'L'-shaped bar with a reasonably-sized patio area in the 'courtyard' between the two ground floor sections of the office building above. Mostly on the same level, but there is one seating section up a couple steps on the outside corner. Nothing special, but the two banks of five handpumps usually offer a few local ales, although the six real ales available on this visit included Lees Plum Pudding (£2.29), another seasonal beer and Jaipur, along with a perry. Handy for Maidstone East railway station if you are waiting for a train.
