The Joseph Bramah

Quite a large place, there is an upstairs and downstairs seating area also an enclosed outdoor area. Always busy as a normal Wetherspoons but never enough staff, need to queue at the bar for a while. Women's paradise as there are lots of toilets, no need to queue here when really needing to go. Food, just normal standard, but enjoyable and edable. Early evening theres no entertainment, just a good place for chatting and eating.

Would have been rude to ignore this fairly typical Town Centre Spoons. A large floor plan over two levels is not immediately apparent. There is a lovely courtyard drinking area as well for those rare sunny days. As always great value and Madge used one of her 50p off CAMRA vouchers to make it even better value. Thus my Thunder Bird from Glamorgan brewery cost me £2.05 for a pint.

Should call this place The Tardis because what you see on the outside isn't what you get on the inside!!!! If it wasn't a Wetherspoons I wouldn't have gone in from the outside view.But once your in it's spacious with lots of wood panelling ,beautiful rooms upstairs and nice atmosphere. It has an outside area in the middle of the building which I was amazed it had .But more importantly the staff were friendly and efficient...one of the places you should definitely not judge a book by it's cover .If your shopping in Barnsley well worth a visit!!!!
