I’ve returned to Nuneaton for another CAMRA meeting; and
today I’m feeling a bit more independent and daring to try new pubs. A bit of
fortune brought me to town early as a previous connecting train was delayed,
allowing me the opportunity to board as soon as I’d arrived at Birmingham New
Street, and I had an hour to kill. Seeing that the local Lloyds was open, I
jumped at the chance to grab the first Cask Marque scan of the day. The
atmosphere was full of breakfast goers, and the beer selection was a bit
uninspired, with only a 4.8% amber beer as a guest ale which isn’t the best way
to start a full day’s session. The staff were just functional, and after
lapping the island bar I retreated to a table near the window to make some
phone calls and enjoy my half-conditioned beer. Sadly, the William White is no
longer standing as Wetherspoon has marked it for closure, which just goes to
show that you need to seek out and use these pubs before you lose them!
