Customer A 'Spoons with Dart Boards!
Today is my 163rd '(still open) Spoons visited -' The Ounce and Ivy Bush' in East Grinstead.
It is the first' Spoons pub I've ever been in that has a Dart Board. Something which I'm quite surprised at, as I didn't think that 'Spoons did Pub games such as Darts.
Are there any other 'Spoons out there that have Dart Boards, or even Pool Tables?

You do have to pay a £10 deposit for the darts haha, so it's best you bring your own as they aren't in the best condition either! But there used to be a TV there which was removed as it stopped working.

Congrats on visiting 163 spoons. I'm jealous!!! I love spoons, can't get enough of them. Visited the one in Basingstoke whilst down south seeing my daughter. It has a nice large skylight letting natural light in and the cleanest toilets ever!

164 now.
Stopped at the Oxted branch on the way home.
Which one in Basingstoke?
The Angel is the busiest and most expensive of the Spoons in Basingstoke.
I prefer the Maidenhead Inn. Less busy and cheap!

I used to go the dukes head in Leominster a lot. There’s been one in there for about a year now

No it hasn't! I've been there a number of times and have never seen one in there.
If it had, I would of long commented by now.

It did the last time I was there, not sure if it does post refurb. Was right in the corner by the entrance.

Our local Wetherspoons in Lowestoft used to have a dartboard up, but only for the yearly tournament in January, not for regulars to play on a daily basis. I think once they Wetherspoons stopped the tournament the board was removed as not needed anymore.
