The Full House - Hemel Hempstead

















Visited 27th December 2010. 

Our fourth pub of the day is coincidentally my one hundredth  Wetherspoon pub visited so far on this quest. And an interesting place it is too. Another converted cinema and a real mixture of clients. I know Wetherspoon pubs generally attract a broad cross section of the drinking community but 'The Full House' certainly took diversity to a new level - I loved it! A very willing barmaid tried hard to find a bottle of 'Buffalo' but I ended up with a double Bulleit and Pepsi. This 'Buffalo' stuff seems very popular... The pub has a very long bar, taking up almost the full width of the pub and I did like the life size sort of robot knight statues at either end, homage to Fritz Lang maybe. We sat and did a little people watching for a while before gathering ourselves for the trip home which as it turned out didn't take to long as our travels had landed us fairly near to the M25 (or 'The Road to Hell' as Chris Rea calls it).
Once again, not a bad way to spend an afternoon. Of the four 'spoons visited today we, unanimously, voted 'The White Hart' as our pub of the day but 'The Full House' will certainly stick in our memories.
