J.D. Wetherspoon in general Reviews

JD Wetherspoons was set up in 1979 and seemed to go below the radar for most people for many years. However, in the last decade Wetherspoons bars have been cropping up all over the place, with one or more in nearly every town / city centre. Wetherspoons made its name selling cheap drinks. One of the ways it did this was by not paying ...  Read the complete review

We have a Wetherspoons very near us and just lately we have been living in the damn place. We like to eat but we have a few rules. 1)Our tastes in food vary so the menu has to be pretty vast so that we both find something that we like. Wetherspoons menu consists of a huge menu that offers anything from jacket potatoes to risottos from ...  Read the complete review

Wetherspoons is a national pub chain that has a mixed reception in many towns and cities around the UK. I say mixed because of its lax attitude to policing the nutters that frequent their bars for cheap booze and then go on the rampage. There are quite a few good things about Spoons. The food is incredibly cheap and not too bad in ...  Read the complete review

Wetherspoons is my new favourite pub! The reason is simple: price; it's so cheap for food and drink that it amazes me they can make a profit. Wetherspoons is a chain of pubs. We have a couple or maybe three in Plymouth. I am not a drinker, so I never tend to go to pubs, but there are other reasons to go to a pub: food. I love ...  Read the complete review

I am not a regular pub-goer, so these days I don't really have much knowledge or experience to compare one pub from another. I tend to be more of a "pop in for something to eat at lunchtime" visitor of pubs. So lets start on the food. What I have found eating in a Wetherspoons is basic grub at basic prices, although we are not ...  Read the complete review

I was extremely happy when Weatherspoons decided to open their first pub in Oxford CIty Centre last year called The Four Candles. The location was previously occupied by The Slug & Lettuce which was always fairly empty and as a result forced to close. In contrast though, since The Four Candles has been open it is always quite busy especially ...  Read the complete review

I've read some reviews on here with interest, as around here Wetherspoons (or just Spoons, as it is affectionately known) is in fact trendy. Its not a hip cocktail bar, but for a spot of grub at a bargain price, and good banter. Wetherspoons is different from most pubs in that there is no music. I quite like this as I go to the pub to ...  Read the complete review

Wetherspoons is the largest pub chain in the United Kingdom, walk down any high street in the land and no doubt you will spot a Wetherspoons pub, which in some ways is no bad thing, as they are a great example of how sensible economics, public understanding and good selection can make something very popular indeed. I have to admit I ...  Read the complete review

Yesterday we paid a visit to our local Wetherspoons, it is absolutely ages since we last visited but The Other Half was at a loose end and in his infinite wisdom he thought it was time to go and try a pint of their finest. The large building is situated on the edge of our small town and it is not by any means architecturally beautiful, in ...  Read the complete review

I really do like wetherspoons, the food and the taste and the pubs are amazing. I like it that all the pubs are so cody and the staff are always friendly. The menu has a variety of different food. Every Thursday night they also have a thing called curry club, where the currys are cheaper and there is a massive selection. On a sunday there is ...  Read the complete review

Most pubs in central London tend to be dirty, run down and over priced. On the other hand I have been to several JD Wetgerspoon pubs and in general they seem to maintain a higher standard than the average pub. First of all while the interior decoration may not be up to the highest standards, the wetherspoon pubs are generally clean, ...  Read the complete review

Over the last two days I have been busy out and about around my home town and I have not had the chance to cook myself a meal at home. I decided to visit my local Wetherspoon pub as I had heard great things about it from friends and family, as with everyone at the moment I am having to watch the pennies and eating out is a bit of a ...  Read the complete review

JD Wetherspoon is a chain of pubs which also serve food (I guess you would call them a Gastropub). They are found all over the UK and are one of my favourite chains of pub both for dink and food. JD Wetherspoon also own LLoyds Bars which are similar to their pubs, but have more of a club feel in the evenings. All the Wetherspoons I ...  Read the complete review

J. D. Wetherspoon, a national treasure! I love my local spoons for meeting friends. The beer is cheap, the food is reasonable and you're able to sit down and have a chat with your mates about things without some loud trashy music playing in the background. My local spoons has installed a couple of large plasma tellys and ...  Read the complete review

J.D.Wetherspoon is a high street pub chain that has been around since 1979. I have to say I am not that big a fan of these pubs. I used to go to them frequently when I was younger, as it was one of the nearest one to where I lived. I generally tend to find that the decor is pretty outdated in the majority of them, at times it feels ...  Read the complete review

I cannot believe this pub chain is scoring so highly. Ok, I appreciate that Wetherspoons do cheap booze and eats, but to me, unless you're on the dole and short of the readies, its somewhere to stay clear of. Whenever I have been in a whetherspoons I have been surrounded by dirty old and smelly men or chavs. There are never any decent ...  Read the complete review

The London Inn, is a large pub right in the centre of the nightlife area of the town, within reach of most of the other ...  Read the complete review

I am very lucky to have a variety of pubs nearby to where i live. We have a massive choice here and Wetherspoons is always the first choice both before a night out on the town and for a daytime drink in the beer garden. From regularly going out in this area since my teens, its popularity hasnt changed much. It is the busiest pub ...  Read the complete review

There are several Wetherspoon bars that I regularly visit in my local city. The best thing about all Wetherspoon pubs is the excellent value. Drinks are normally consideraly cheaper than other pubs and bars in the surrounding area, so when you're looking to save money on an evening out, they are great places to go to. The food is also very well ...  Read the complete review
