Certainly not the new Govt scheme of 2/3rds of pint.

Apparently, they will appeal to the ladies.

Just spent the last few days in Salisbury looking for a decent pint, only to find that I missed the best pub by far, the Wyndham Arms

Shocking Wetherspoon's there I'm afraid. no pride in their beer whatsoever

Yes I have stopped there, it's a Wetherspoon Lodge at the side of the river...The Kings Head Inn.
It was a bit scruffy and so were the rooms and the beer was variable.
A lovely building from outside.....but not one of Wethersoon's best inside.
Salisbury at night is like supping in a desert.....it's dreadful.
