Old Boots left this review about The Benjamin Fawcett (JD Wetherspoon)

In a relatively new building the inside has been done out with a lot of old dark wood and old brown furniture. Decor wise it’s earlier’spoons with lots of local or not, famous people and a fair bit related to RAF Driffield. Big long room downstairs, toilets upstairs. Two groups of five pumps, usuals plus Rev James doubled, Oakham JHB and Titanic Plum Porter as a choice. My JHB was very good, the pub is GBG2023 listed. Standard but worthy ‘spoons.

This branch of Wetherspoon's appears to be a fairly modern build, but apparently was a pub previously.

It was packed on my Friday evening visit, with pretty much all of the tables taken in the simple, long, spacious and open-plan room. As usual, toilets were upstairs.

Service was fairly efficient and it wasn't long before I'd manage to bag a table at the far end of the room and I was drinking my Old Rosie cider. Ales were the usual Greene King Abbot, Ruddles Best & Sharp's Doom Bar, with a couple of guests - Brightside Grafters & Cameron's Strongarm.

It was noisy in here. A few people were eating, but this was mainly a Friday evening drinking crowd, with a mixture of all ages. Some of the old folk hadn't yet gone home and the youngsters were already out.

A reasonable choice for Driffield, but I much prefer the Butcher's Dog which I visited the last time I was in the town 3 years ago.
