The Swan and Castle
Locally known as the 'other' Wetherspoons, The Swan and Castle weighs
in slightly differently to The Four Candles. On the plus side it's
about the size of an aircraft carrier so you're more likely to get a
seat; on the minus it's actually a little too big; all featureless and
blank, like you're drinking in some bleak Soviet experiment into the
effects of alcohol on levels of despair. Another downside is that it
sits on the edge of the infinitely more pricey and pleased with itself
Castle District, meaning you feel like soot choked pauper if you step
out the back door for a fag. Itchy would love to tell you more about
the place but, you know, it's a Wetherspoons innit.
