YOU know exactly what you’re getting with Wetherspoon’s, the pub chain which launched in 1979 and has become a fixture on most high streets uo and down the country in the past 15 years.
And The Miles Thompson, in Allhallows Lane, Kendal, delivers the company’s benchmark service to provide value for money in a venue where customers can hear themselves think.
Good quality food is available all day and the choice of drinks is always impressive, with beer festivals featuring guest ales taking place throughout the year.
Named after the Kendal architect who built many homes in the town, the pub opened in 2004 and continues to draw in people at throughout the day.
It’s the perfect place to enjoy a pub lunch and catch up on the news via the subtitled Sky News channel, and in the summertime, you’ll find my colleagues and I in there for a quick bite to eat.
Visiting one lunchtime, I chose a bacon and barbecue chicken baguette with salad (£3.69) and chips (60p extra), and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Service was quick – which is essential on a working day l– and there was a friendly buzz about the place.
