Historical version 1 of Useful Things To Note (view current version)

Here are some useful things to note down about pubs, restaurants, etc. See House Style Guidelines for specifics of formatting.

  • Opening times. Remember to note down the source of these, e.g. "obtained from member of staff", "taken from website", "taken from menu", and the date (month and year) when you obtained them.
  • Times that food is served (including source as above).
  • Step-free access.
  • Presence/absence of accessible toilet.
  • How much seating there is (e.g. "seats about 30") and what type (normal chairs and tables, high stools, sofas, etc). If the only seating is on high stools, this is worth noting, as it's an accessibility issue.
  • Whether music was playing on your visit, and how loud it was (too quiet to hear over conversation, loud enough to be listened to but not to get in the way, loud enough to impede conversation, loud enough to be physically painful, etc). Optionally also the type of music (jazz, classical, '80s pop, etc).
  • Whether there's a bookable function room.
  • Whether there's free wifi.
  • Whether there's a pub quiz.
  • Whether there's a smoking area.
  • Child-friendliness.
  • Dog-friendliness.
  • Availability of Halal food.
  • Vegan-friendliness.
  • Vegetarian-friendliness.
