About This Pub
Ah, The Good Yarn, it's one of those dependable Wetherspoons pubs that you can always rely on for a solid night out without spending a fortune. I love how it's tucked away on the High Street, making it an easy spot to pop into after a wander around. The drinks selection is spot on, with a wide array of beers, wines, and spirits that cater to all tastes, and at prices that make it perfect for a casual get-together with friends. The staff are an absolute gem too, always cheerful and ready to lend a hand, which really adds to the welcoming vibe. On the downside, though, the food's where things get a tad wobbly – some reviews rave about the portions and value, but others aren't so keen, mentioning skimpy servings like half a chicken with just a handful of chips, or sides that don't taste fresh. It's not that it's awful, but if you're planning a proper meal, you might want to keep expectations in check and stick to the drinks menu for the best experience. All in all, it's a great little spot for a budget-friendly bevvy and a laugh, but maybe pair it with a bite from elsewhere if you're feeling peckish.

We come into the Good Yarn several times a week the staff are always friendly and helpful.
Great selection of beers wines and spirits. Food is always served in a timely manor.
Based on my own experience I would rather come here for drinks but not for food…
I did order food, but not impressed with the quantity - half a chicken with about 7 chips?!?! The coleslaw tasted off, salad was not fresh.
Lovley place with great atmosphere. Great service and loved the range of drink and food. Great prices too so you can't go wrong.
Typical Wetherspoons, cheap prices for cheap drinks, and food ranges from very bad to decent.
I have no problem with the service especially as you order via a QR code and I was too busy chatting to notice how long it took for the food to come out. But it wasn't abnormally long, otherwise I would have definitely took note. They also have water that you can pour yourself, which is nice.
The restaurant is spacious enough, slot machines at the front and bathrooms upstairs. Apparently the space used to be a tailoring shop for menswear.
