Visited 7th February 2010.
Our final Wetherspoon of the day was The Hope Tap, no trouble finding this one, it was in the same road as the last. As we ate at the last pub we opted for just a coffee at this one. As it turned out this was perhaps a bit of a mistake. Mrs S. was being served at the bar so I nipped off to the loo. She was still being served when I returned. To fully appreciate that last statement you need to realise that it is a long pub and the stairs leading to the loos are at the far end of the pub. The stairs are long and the loos are at the top of the stairs at the front of the pub (so it's best not to leave a trip to 'spend a penny' till the last second). At any rate, I was back before the coffee was ready. Which as it turned out wasn't worth the wait. Maybe it was the barman's first day on the job? Despite this minor wobble, we had both had a good afternoon, beer and food, what's not to like?
