Tipex Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Dont visit chains like these because there all the same cheap, crap, plastic foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoatwobbler Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Can't comment on the Sheffield 'spoons but the one in Colchester (The Playhouse) has the worst service of any bar I've ever been in. Another annoying thing I've had in Wetherspoons pubs down South is some of their barstaff having some sort of inbuilt horror of real ale. You ask for a pint of Theakstons for instance and they go all pale and try and persuade you to drink just about anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox20thc Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Beers okay, staff are few and far between. I ordered some food before xmas at lunchtime, it was horrid, staff member came to the table to collect a glass I told him the food was horrible and not up to standard, his response was "I didn't cook it". Shift manager was also not bothered, therefore I vowed never to eat in the place again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheekyBandit Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Not bad, foods crap at times. When has their food been any good? Was with a group of friends who wanted to have a pub lunch at the one in Oadby. Managed to convince the group to eat elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahonia Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I love Wetherspoons :D:D:D I find the smaller pubs have better customer service and the food is better that the larger pubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laura16 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I like them prices are great and the food is usually nice as well they arent always that good though when its busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ousetunes Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Not my kind of place but it's clear why they are so popular with their cheap beer. I once 'ate' at the Banker's Draft and the 'food' resembled Pedigree Chum which had been left in an oven for a week. Indeed, one feels obliged to wipe your feet on the way out of such establishments.

Nicolaheaven Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Generally the prices are excellent as prices go today. A pint of Ruddles is £1.29 I think. Thats like prices from 15 years ago. OK so sometimes the food is just about warm, but i've had good and bad in many Witherspoons. Attracts a few dead heads as the prices are so cheap but if you are old and on a pension its good for them to get out and drink with friends for not a lot of money. Long Live Witherspoons!!!
