The Builders Arms

A good branch of this chain which is much better than the other Wetherspoon in the city (The Bank , being cleaner and in better condition indoors. (Also the toilets aren't miles away upstairs through countless corridors and doors but at sensible ground level! A good selection of beer on offer including Tuborg, Marsdens, Carlsberg, Ruddles, John Smiths and Guinness. The house wine is a lovely Merlot. There is varied seating throughout the pub, from wooden chairs with tables to nice alcoves. You can eat anywhere but there is a special dining area on the right as you go in, a bit similar to the Wetherspoon at Bridgend. The Curry Club on Thursdays is recommended prices are much lower than other days of the week and there is a wonderful variety of meals to choose from at all times great for vegetarians too; there are even choices for vegans (I recommend the chick pea curry with extra poppadoms instead of naan bread . Lovely inexpensive desserts and good coffee as well! We were served by Ben yesterday, who was really nice but I also spoke to two other members of staff who brought the food and they were friendly and very helpful. We'll definitely eat there again the next time we're in Swansea.

I love potter's wheel, its a very typical Wetherspoons but it has some sort of charm I can't describe. It's quite big, the food is what you'd expect and it has the usual bunch of drinks on sale. One thing I do like is the selection of ale they have, but that's pretty normal to most Wetherspoons. The only way I can really review this place is in respect to other Wetherspoons, this is a charming, nicely laid out pub with good service, good food (For a Wetherspoons) and a nice atmosphere.

Friday night at the Potters is an institution. It is perfectly acceptable to go in, order a cocktail pitcher, decline any glasses and just shove a handful of straws in it the staff have come to expect this. As well as being the pre Sin City/Vice pub, it's full of what I presume are their regular customers so there's always an atmosphere going. The food is the usual you'd expect from a Wetherspoons, as are the drink prices. I always make sure I visit, on a Friday night, when I'm home.

The reason why I would even give this a rating is because of the cheap drinks. The place is a pig sty, the tables are never clean, the toilets are disgusting, its usually full of people who think its a way of life to drink at 8am in the morning. Dirtiest, grubbiest place I have ever had the displeasure of going too. The food is usually either off, on the turn or they run out of what you order. NEVER go there on a Sunday because that is the day when they usually run out of everything. I have had mould and brown gunk on salads, the sunday roast vegetables are microwaved in a bag and even they were off. The previous manager was a godsend and its a shame he has gone

I think this is deaths waiting room, atmosphere sucked every drop of life out of me. Will go here next time i want to feel less happy.
