Ok, well someone had to take us
out of the rut of games reviews, so I've decided to review a pub. For this I'm going to
split the catogories into various segment thus giving the pub an average score.
First off obviously, drink. Now you have to remember this is a pub in a
quiet english town. (It would be quiet except for the boy racers) Now most of you would be
accustomed to Harp, Bud, Carlsberg, Smithwicks and perhaps even Guiness. This is no place
for those types of drinks. They have stuff like Tetley's Ale, Boddingtons, Carling, and
other unusual beers. And they come out of old style pumps rather than taps. I foolishly
went for Stella Artious (I don't care that it's spelt wrong) and isn't I felt sick of it.
So drinks wise I'm giving it 3 out of 10 because it didn't have Irish whiskey.
Next up is, gambling machines. Now obviously, gambling machine are part
and parcel of pubs and most of you (Those that go out Dozy!) will have played Who wants to
be a Millionaire?. This pub has a typical ladish lights everywhere three drum fruit
machine and a touch screen cluedo, corrie street and hang man combo type game. The touch
screen game is quite good but it's no Who wants to be killed on air? And as for the fruit
machine well, lets say the boy racers, had their territory well marked. An very generous 4
out of 10.
Next up is pub decor. This is what you'd expect from your typical old
tavern style and doubles up as a restaurant for lunch. 7 out of 10 for design, after all
what more can I say about interior decor?
Finally, we move onto pull factor. Now I know this place is not a
nightclub but it's still possible. (Yes, even for me. Might be a slimmer chance than most
people but it's possible) However, apart from the affore mentioned boy racers, everybody
is older than I and seem to already have a partner. So not much action there. There was a
nice girl, who was wearing a black bra and a see-thru top but she was going with a gawky
looking boy racer type. So a fairly low 1 out 10 there.
That concludes the review. So if you ever find yourself in Espom (!), be
sure not to visit this place, because it's not worth much.
