BRITS are raving about a Wetherspoons which is the "best in the UK" – and it's right next to a popular beach.<\/p>\n
Spoons pubs have become something of a landmark for UK towns, with many breathing new life into historic buildings.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
However, the Picture House in Colwyn Bay, Wales, has been singled out as one of the most beautiful by its punters.<\/p>\n
The pub can be found inside the former Princess Cinema, which was built in 1914 and originally called the Princess Picture House. <\/p>\n
A lot of the original Art Deco design features are still visible inside the pub today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They include stained glass windows and lighting fixtures, as well as artwork on the walls.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They make the inside of the pub the perfect place for a pint according to plenty of people who've visited.<\/p>\n
From the many five-star reviews on TripAdvisor, many praised its atmosphere, with some saying it's the best Spoons has to offer.<\/p>\n

The Picture House in Colwyn Bay was not a disappointment – in fact one of the best!"<\/p>\n The pub's location is also a major draw, as it sits right next to the beach.<\/p>\n Colwyn's shore has been described as "great for swimming, watersports and fishing as well as cycling and walking along the coastal track" by Visit Conwy.<\/p>\n The sweeping sandy crescent was once a major holiday destination for Brits looking to get to the seaside and it's becoming increasingly popular again.<\/p>\n As part of the Colwyn Bay Waterfront project, huge quantities of fresh sand have been imported and the promenade has been "refreshed and revitalised" to make it worthy of holidaymakers again.<\/p>\n Visit Conwy added: "We know that Colwyn Bay had its heyday as a full-on family seaside resort some time ago. <\/p>\n "But it\u2019s changing as we speak – and today\u2019s visitors are liking what they hear and find."<\/p>\n As well as the Wetherspoons and the beach, visitors to the town can visit the Artisan Market and the Welsh Mountain zoo. <\/p>\n A night in Colwyn Bay can be found for around \u00a347 for two people.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Meanwhile, these are some more of the most beautiful Wetherspoons pubs in the world.<\/p>\n And this man spent a night in a Wetherspoons and was pleasantly surprised.<\/p>\nWoman left 'traumatised' after being banned from flight over passport mistake<\/h3>\n<\/section>\n
