Walkabout (In General)

Australians...famous for being good at cricket, when playing the English, and little else in my eyes. Now I'm trying to sound patriotic and all that, but when an Australian 'themed' bar rolls around, I expect merely a lot of booze being drunk by not many people. Say hello to Walkabout then. Walkabout is a chain of bars found across the country in all major towns and cities. Being from a sleepy Cotswold town originally there was nothing of the sort to compare Walkabout to, but having been to university in Nottingham and now living in London, I've been to my fair share of Walkabouts. They're seemingly everywhere... So what's different about them to ...  Read the complete review

Walkabout is a chain of mainly bars running nationaly in the UK. They comprise 48 bars, 3 hotels & a nightclub. They are all Themed on Australia. The bars in my opinion are best described as Sports Bars. They Have Live Sport on all day & at night (although commentary is turned off in favour of music at night. They even have TV screens in the toilet so you don't miss a key goal! The Pub's always have a lively atmosphere & they are nice places to have a drink. Just like any nightclub, they also have bouncers on the door in the evening. They sell a variety of drinks & cocktails including imported Australian Beers like VB. Aa ...  Read the complete review

Walkabout - a National chain of Oz themed bars. They are a cheap and cheerful alternative to Wetherspoons and really good venues for watching live sport, or enjoying a lively night at one of the themed nights. All of the Walkabout bars that I have been to have always been busy, usually a student crowd. This is partly to the drinks promotions and the 'Boomerang' card (keeps them coming back, sorry :-) couldn't resist!!). The card has recently been relaunched and costs £3.00 and offers the holder 25% off food and drinks. However if you use the card in Glasgow it only covers soft drinks, possibly due to local licensing laws. Food The food in Walkabout is ...  Read the complete review

This should be my final review about Cardiff from when I was on my Hen Weekend. I have saved my best experience until last. We stayed in the City Centre whilst in Cardiff in the Travelodge which was right next to train station but also right next to all the pubs. This made life so much easier for us and luckily for us Walkabout was the pub right next to our hotel so it was the first place we went. I have already touched on the subject of Walkabout on a previous review but I think the pub actually deserves a full review of my experience there. A little bit about Walkabout There seems to be several Walkabout pubs in the UK ...  Read the complete review

Walkabout is a chain of Australian themed sports bars located across the UK. I have visited quite a few of these including brances in London, Manchester & Reading, so thought I'd use this review to summarise my experiences. The bars are open during the day for food & drink. The food is good value for money but you get what you pay for, I've noticed the quality of the meals isn't that great when I've eaten here before. It was almost like the food had been previously prepared and then was just re-heated in the microwave. You can't go wrong with their drinks though, which are competitively priced whilst watching your favourite football team play on their ...  Read the complete review
