picture of AsparagusAs Fancypint? reviewers, with an obvious appreciation of pubs, it saddens our hearts that the Wetherspoon experience is so rarely positive. The newer branches just look like bland hotel lobbies, while the older types simply get more and more rundown - like this one, the Asparagus. Liberally decorated inside in a terrible hospital green, the usual cheap prices and well-kept ales did little to compensate for the soulless and depressing atmosphere. It may have been popular, with a broad mix of people (including the chain's usual lone old men), but its pretty clear the Wetherspoon concept is looking as tired as many of Asparagus' regular customers. The sooner they realise good beer doesn't equal a good pub, the better.
