Haven't been in for a while and only really went in because it's across the road from my wife's work. My wife works for the Social Work department (alarm bell should be ringing).
Yes the carpets are sticky but the Fosters draft is fresh & cold. They have had Spitfire on occasions, great if you like a pint you can chew but it does knock you senseless.
It's actually not a bad place but during the day and early evening it is full of Social Work clients & staff. 2 social groups I'd rather stay clear of, my wife excluded.
Just incase she's reading.
Has she a membership here?
Am I already in trouble?!?
So if your passing and you fancy a pint you could do worse.
The 'To Let' sign is gone as that floor is now full of Social workers, who says they are all mad as hatters!

JD Wetherspoon bar in the centre of Motherwell in what used to be Bairds department store when I were a lad and used to walk past it twice a day enroute to school and back!

I've been a few times, with my dad at lunchtime and to a colleague's leaving do on a Friday night. Big and spacious, but with sticky carpets. Usual Wetherspoons food and drink.

I'd go in again, but would probably stick to lunchtimes as there are likely to be fewer bottles flying around (by all accounts - although to be fair it was OK when I was in on the Friday!)]]> Tue, 06 Mar 2007 19:40:21 +0000 /review/uk/motherwell/bar-pub/1o62a7x/the-brandon-works/1i71n7953930183 Layclerk 55.791054530465 -3.9935919069364
