At the Sanctuary punters can expect to watch all types of sports from Formula 1 to heavyweight title fights.
Most Spoons pubs up and down the country have their infamous carpets which punters love to discuss.
There is even a book about them which documents their patterns and sees if any two venues have the same carpets.
Yet, at the Sanctuary they opted for a wooden floor which is perfect for their late-night activities.
Unlike other Wetherspoons' in the UK, this pub hosts late-night games sessions as well as a pool table and dart board to keep punters happy.
Being on a University campus, the majority of customers are students trying to enjoy their night on a budget.
However, the Sanctuary welcomes anyone looking for a bite and drink - or even a quiz on a Sunday.
