Cheap and cheerful pub/ restaurant chain. Some also have confortable rooms to rent too. The buildings themselves are often of historic importance...or have had a previous life as something interesting and there are always photos and info displayed to show the buildings previous history.
Good value meals...especially breakfast.
Loos are always a hike up or down lots of stairs! Lol

Proper food at affordable prices.
Good prices on the beer too.
Been in quite a few.
And today heading to my local one for Cod and chips.
My only complaint…you have to pay extra for Black Pudding when you have breakfast.
The Crown in Worcester is great….
And I can’t for the life of me remember the name of the one I was in in Nottingham recently!( Remembered-It’s the Roebuck Inn).
But today off to The John Fielding named after a local guy who fought in the Boer War.

They are very convenient for a lone person with a bit too much shopping because you can just find a table and order through the app rather than struggle carrying a drink and all your shopping from the bar or dumping the bags by a table and worrying that someone might nick them while you are fetching a drink.
As for the loos being a long way away, well there are some compensations. The loos are often upstairs and the stairs are often quite grand and in view of the whole bar. So going up and down them in heels and a short miniskirt gives all the men (and women too) a good view. I felt a bit over exposed the first time but decided to view it as a bit of faded glamour the next!

@meggie I don't think I've ever visited Tunbridge Wells, perhaps I should add it to my list of places to go to. As for the knickers, well I usually wear thongs. And in the summer I'm bare legged. I only go without knickers if I'm wearing a long full skirt in the winter. :-)
I like Wetherspoon's because they are unpretentious and it looks like some nice buildings have been rescued from demolition or at least unsympathetic conversions. On the other hand some are surprisingly inefficient. There is one in Plymouth that took fifteen minutes to deliver my pint and another fifteen to deliver my food a couple of years ago.

@meggie I did cause a bit of confusion in a Wetherspoon's in the Nottingham area a couple of years ago. I was reapplying lipstick in the mirror when the door opened and man took one step inside saw me and then beat a hasty retreat. He came back a few seconds later looking a bit sheepish. He obviously thought he'd gone into the ladies.

Never had a good experience in them personally.
They tend to have a good selection of beers but the food is 'microwavable' fare and pretty tasteless

@jackjones68 that is true. Many retired people arrive in droves and can afford to go most days. But, it gets them out of the house and many have little else in their lives.
