They’ve done it! Wow! Yates Bolton has managed to provide the worst rump steak I’ve ever had! Loads of fat, no flavour, and like a mouthful of grease, I had to leave the rest of the meal because it turned my stomach. I’ve complained to Yates on Twitter. I feel like I need to rinse my mouth out. This comes after I ordered the gammon but was later told they were sold out, so quickly changed to rump steak. The venue itself is scruffy, with burnt out lights, and the worst toilets I’ve experienced in Bolton! I give it 1 star because the girl who served me was friendly and efficient. Ugh I need to go and find somewhere to get a cup of tea or something!

Yates is huge and sprawling and basically carnage at the weekends, when all the locals in Bolton hit it hard for cheap lager and bottles of wine for not a lot more than £5. In this respect, it’s great for getting some cheap lags in before hitting one of Bolton’s clubs later in the night. They also do really cheap breakfasts as well, with a bacon butty and hot drink for just £1.50 in the mornings, which is pretty god by anyone’s standards. However, it’s still a Yates, which means it’s just like the rest of them in that it really lacks any kind of character and is really just about drinking as much as possible for as little money as possible, rather than generating any kind of cool atmosphere or anything.

I’ve got to say, I like Yates, and this one in Bolton seems especially decent, not because its any different to the others, but because a Yates’ seems to suit Bolton for some reason. I’m not sure who that’s more likely to offend, Yates or Bolton… Anyway its refreshing to get a pint for a couple of quid outside of Wetherspoons. Even if its just a rumour that Mr Wetherspoon(not his real name) is a major funder of the UK Independence Party, I just don’t want to risk supplying these fascists, so Yates’ it is. Food is not even bad. That’s not to say its good, but just that it isn’t at all bad. Breakfasts are especially un-problematic, as I am not fussy about quality and more interested in size. Beer is cold so you cant tell its poor. Result.

Living with the knowledge that there is a Yates’s in nearby Bolton really makes you realise that 10 miles isn’t very far and this instance will never be far enough. Take a look at the picture and see for yourself a bar that has modelled itself on the lining of the Joker’s favourite dinner suite. Marvel at a carpet that is not too disimliar from the ooze that took over New York city in(the hugely underrated) Ghostbusters 2. And most importantly, make a mental note of the position in the picture of the fire door and should you ever find yourself there– use it sharpish.
