The wife and I like coming here, not an unfriendly atmosphere at all and amazingly some spirits are cheaper than Wetherspoons across the street! Friendly vibe, pool tables, darts, nice tables with sports on TV. What more could you wish for?
Definitely wouldn't recommend this Pub in Swindon. The beer on tap tastes off and upset my stomach. The staff are arrogant and rude especially the Landlord. Its a surprise it keeps going considering the amount of violence and drugs that go on in there. Much much better places to go a have a pint in Swindon.
Brilliant DJ...brought me back to the 90s/00s.. place hopping.. very enjoyable 🎵🎵
The notice in the window clearly says that the place is open until 11pm, but the place was already closed when I arrived at about 10pm. So don't rely on them, especially not during bad weather, because they simply can't be bothered.
Had a great evening at The Waiting Room seeing the Ryan McCombs Acoustic(ish) tour. A really nice, clean venue, with friendly staff and conveniently located near Brunel West Car Park for those of us coming in from out of town. Looking forward to seeing more shows here
