Too swanky and expensive, football is a working man's game. Give me a pint of Carling Premier and a ham batch and i'd go every evening!
I thought Wetherspoons was sozzled old men stinking of piss and ranting on about Germans, rather than students.

I remember it from years ago mate, in the old club at highfield road, first ever pint in there with my old manNot a bad drop Premier, not seen it for years.
You are right though, the prices are too high for what it is.
Downstairs is cracking but too posh for what it needs to be and upstairs is a working men’s club with downstairs prices. It doesn’t know what it is yet. Hopefully they work it out.

I genuinely can't remember the last time I seen it. Though I've not lived in Cov for nearly 15 years now and Carling isn't as popular here. From what I recall it was Carling but a bit smoother, similar in mouthfeel to CaffreysLove Carling premier, get that bad boy on tap and it's on

Can only echo most of the comments on here. I went there on the Saturday evening after the Barnsley game earlier this season, I was expecting it to be heaving but there was only a handful of people in there who cleared out after a while. The upstairs was closed.
Rebrand it to just 'The Tavern', keep some Sky Blue decor but tone it down a bit and reduce prices slightly. And for goodness sake, get rid of that awful 'stand' they have there.
Can't fault the service mind. They had plenty of staff on who kept coming round to clear empties and take orders etc.

If they served it I'd be out out.Rainbows, tonight. 11pm. Let’s do this
I’m sure the jag club on Browns lane sells it on draughtLove Carling premier, get that bad boy on tap and it's on
I can give some context around why they have so little of their own brews on keg or cask. The main brewer is from Portugal and was unable to get back after going back there for a couple of weeks to see family. Also they have moved the brewery equipment to a new unit and as they've expanded so fast it's been a case that they've not been able to brew as much as they normally would. I'm sure in the coming weeks this will be rectified. In terms of the spire bar,I don't think the cool room/cellar is all that large so limited to what can stock. It's a work in progress. You have to bare in mind that they have been busy opening too new bars and expanding the existing brewery.Give it time and hopefully more of their own brews will start to re-appaer on draft/keg
The covid testing gang.They need to attract the resident student crowd.... who else lives near the ring road?!
So. Let me get this straight.
The Coventry City FC themed pub called the Sky Blue Tavern is too Coventry City FC themed ?
Fackinell.
Oi Garçon ! Take this Confit de Canard back. It tastes far too fucking French
Laurel & Hardy? Devo, maybe?Yep, cant see it ever being a local, maybe for those blokes in the hats, not many more though
The vast vast majority of people who live in Coventry don’t support the club. Wouldn’t surprise me if people think you need to be a member or have a season ticket to get in.
I live 5 minutes walk away from it and other than match days I’ve not even considered it unfortunately. Shit beer. Proper egg smelling bad pints. The price is expected these days, but at least give me a decent one please.
100%. All those years of going to 'their' shit bars with 'their' shit decor and shit music and invariably quaffing shit ale.If they don’t support the club I’m glad there’s an overly themed club bar for them to dislike. Serves the smart basturrds right.
That said, if you charge me ten quid for an egg smelling pint…
The context of the thread is that nobody goes there apart from match days, so it's a valid pointSo. Let me get this straight.

100% with you. It’s a fiver a pint for beer which despite being ‘craft’ doesn‘t have more flavour or ABV than mainstream pours such as Carling. Their Red Rebel is a better drink but hardly fits the sky blue theme as far as the tavern is concerned. On this basis, £7-10 for a really decent IPA, Porter or Saison at the Tap in Beer Gonzo is actually better value.For a brewery their beer selection is incredibly disappointing too.
Last few times I’ve been to the Spire Bar, they’ve only had their lagers on, and on a few occasions only one of those. They literally brew ale, why not have at least one on!
50/50 on the quality of the beer too.

Do they play chase the ace?Get yourself down the Weavers in Bulkington for a night of Prem and dominos.
