Benjamin Satchwell (112/114 The Parade, Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, CV32 4AQ) (01926) 883733. Opposite the Regent Hotel you cant really miss this place. The Benjamin Satchwell, named after a former Leamington benefactor, bears all the hallmarks of the Wetherspoon style. Converted from two shops opposite the Regent Hotel, the pub is large, stretching back to Bedford Street. The split level of the shops has been used well to create a comfortable lower seating area with a large book collection. The upper level hosts the impressively long bar. At the rear is a no-smoking area, the no-smoking rule is extended to the toilets and the bar. On the walls are panels depicting the history of the town and its benefactors. All the real ales are sensibly priced and there is a helpful three monthly guest beer list with tasting notes. For the hungry, bar meals are available at 12-10pm from a straightforward and inexpensive menu. The pub is popular, the atmosphere being generated by conversation, not loud music. They have a no smoking area and disabled access.
