Goldengrove in Newham

Delicious wings, fresh beer and a full bar. Prices folk...

Food not very well cooked and in small quantities. The service is fast. The beer is the best for the quality/price ratio, that's why the 3

Great pub, but it was cold. Not the staffs fault customers left doors open..... and there are a lot of doors.

Top place family-friendly cheap food and drinks

Visited a pub on Sunday evening 03/11/23. We were asked to move from beer garden inside as staff wanted to close that area. I must admit that staff outside was nice and polite. We moved inside with all food and drinks but 2 min after member of staff asked as ( 4 adults 60 years ald) to move from this area to another . She explained that it's because she wants to close this area too. It was 10pm. The table she offered was next to big company and people was pestering us with their conversation. I mentioned it to the members of staff and explained to her that we would like to be left along. Someone who refused uidentifiy himself told us to finish drinks and live "his pub" . I pointed that is not his pub but the company. Anyway we left about 0.5 hour later . But the area where staff moved us out was full af customers and they even was sarved food. Management of this pub made me feel like I'm worse then others. I believe that this customer service is unacceptable for the well known company especially from managemen. Very upsetting.

Today I was a group at this bar, where I ordered and it didn't come according to what I wanted. I approached the bar and asked for it to be corrected according to what was paid for, the worker started to confirm that I did not place the order in that order and showed what I paid for and to check the rooms. Anyway, the lady worker kept her position and started shouting for her to turn around and left. I asked for the complaint book, to which the lady worker said that she does not give anything and she is not interested in anything.

Great Pub for Great Value. One of the least expensive Wetherspoons in London. Large interior and large exterior. Ideal for popping into Morrisons too. Not far from Stratford Station.

Such a happy atmosphere! Even the bouncers are smiling and having fun! That's a good sign. Such good beers on tap when I was there. Large place but fills up fast when it gets busy. Lots of tills but there's one near the TV that only accepts cards but is usually much shorter. Food looks good even though I haven't tried it. Staff works hard and kind through the busyness 🫶🏼 There's usually plenty of seating outside in the back patio.

My spoons in Wanstead has closed. This is a great alternative! We want pubs which are alive anytime of day or night!

Good evening, everyone. I have been watching this problem for a long time until it rocked me. One of the doors in this institution does not work on closing for more than a month!!!! And when I closed it I was reprimanded by the staff for this, on my excuse that this door does not work on closing for more than a month, they said that this is not my problem..... I ask the management to pay attention to the comfort of customers in your establishment and repair the necessary for this nodes!!!!

Been to many spoons but this place and experience was horrible. Very rude staff

First time in England, first English breakfast, I really liked it! Thank you for accepting our arrival 5 minutes before the end for breakfast, it was a real treat! The jacket potato with cheese extra beans is a gem!

Staff was good, food was delicious, and prices were affordable.

Typical spoons, cheap and cheerful

Good food at very reasonable prices; friendly staff; good selection of drinks; Stowford cider at £1.99 - can't argue with that!

8 people behind the bar and you have to wait 15 minutes to be served! I see this job is given to people who are friends but don't know this job... worst Wetherspoon's service in London!

Was very disappointed, in the food , service here today. Not my normal Wetherspoons,Waltham cross , Baxter’s court. Which is by far much cleaner, service much better, and food served in eatable conditions. Will not be returning here .

Very pleasant when it's not busy

Really clean and tidy especially for a Weatherspoons, service was quick and the staff were really polite and helpful, had some food and a beer, would use again when in Stratford

I Just ate the worst plate of nachos ever,the pub is filthy and disgusting, service doesn't exist at all,but the beer is absolutely cheap!

Delicious food, enthusiastic staff, beautiful decoration and great karaoke system.

Cheap pints for days love the prices

I recently visited Wetherspoon in Stratford and was disappointed by my experience. While I appreciate the casual atmosphere, the staff, particularly a server named SUNNY (to be clear a guy who flip bottle of beer when asked and pour half of the beer on ground), were extremely rude. His dismissive attitude made me feel unwelcome, which overshadowed the dining experience. I've seen numerous reviews highlighting the rudeness of the staff, yet it seems nothing has changed. This raises the question: does management ignore customer feedback? The place feels cheap, which is expected, but the lack of basic courtesy is unacceptable. I hope management addresses these ongoing issues, as no one should have to endure rudeness while dining out.

Super meal. Looking for somewhere quieter after a show in Central London. Pub busy but still plenty of space. Value for money for food & drink the best.

Devansh Singla was an amazing server!

We've just left another pub in London not the most flattering review so in the interests of fairness we are giving praise where it is due. On our trip to London we ended up coming here for breakfast 3 days in a row. Simply because after our first visit we found the staff lovely and friendly and just as importantly the breakfasts were really quite good, especially when you consider the price and free coffee refills. Really impressed all round. Well done the Golden Grove, keep it up!

The usual messed chaotic Waterspoon

Team leader Gabi is a star 🌟! Very attentive and nothing was too much. Thanks for remembering my ice. Thank you so much ☺️ Paige x

Just about what you can expect from a Wetherspoons. Slower service than usual at the bar, but sometimes it can't be helped. Visited after running some errands. I would say the atmosphere was good, but it was pretty quiet, and another customer ended up making me feel uncomfortable, and it was never addressed upon by the staff. However, food was good. A pretty decent meal and drinks are what you'd expect. Overall, I can't complain much. However, staff (bar staff particularly) being more vigilant and having a better degree of awareness would benefit the place more.

I had the bangers and mash with a craft beer for under a tenner. Service was really slow at the bar, so I found a table and ordered off the app. Very nice beer, but the meal was below average. I've had bangers and mash before at a spoons, but this one was too dry spoiling the mash. Good atmosphere in the garden and inside, though.

Had a nice breakfast here very reasonably priced and choice of coffees too.

The worst service ever. In no busy day we were waiting for beer 20 minutes, when we kindly asked “where our beer?” waitress told that we are rude and stopped serve us. It was not first time in this pub. So rude communication with customers.

Devansh was amazing, fantastic customer experience, went above and beyond what I was expecting 10/10

No loud music. A couple of tvs on silent staff very efficient plenty of seating plus a nice atmosphere. Definitely visit again.

Da evitare a tutti i costi. Mal frequentato (su ogni tavolo c'è persino una scritta che invita gli avventori a fare attenzione ai borseggiatori !!!), sporco, sevizio lento. Simbolo del decadimento totale di Wetherspoon.

Badly frequented: there is even a warning to customers on each table to beware of pickpockets. Dirty, slow service, poor food, loud Eastern European drunks. Symbol of Wetherspoon's total decline. Stay away!

It's a Weather Spoon's, not much more to say. The portion here was a little smaller than normal.

Busy pub with lots of outdoor seating. Service was slow but the food was good. Our meals took about 25 minutes to arrive. Plates were hot & we enjoyed our food. Pub is a 15 minute walk from the shopping mall & international train station. Had problems ordering our drinks again on the Spoons app. Been happening a lot lately. Prices were good considering the location. Not one I would rush back to though.

Friendly staff and good service

This is a very popular pub for West Ham United fans for a pre match drink. Unfortunately, the management seemed to be unaware of the usual high demand and thought it was perfectly alright to have 4 long and large queues of customers waiting at least 15 minutes to be served. We, like many others, gave up after one round and went to a nearby rival pub, where it was busy but you could still get a pint within a couple of minutes.

Chicken curry was not bad. Horrible atmosphere. Staffs were arguing. Empty tables left dirty for really long time.

Food came quickly but the drinks were very slow...

Great local with a lot of choice in English beers and great food at reasonable prices.

Your typical Witherspoon pub, good atmosphere, helpful staff, nice food. Can get very busy in the evenings and slow to get served when busy. There's a large pleasent beer garden.

The service here was exceptional, polite, speedy and very friendly and helpful.

Very relaxed pub with very helpful and friendly staff, especially Sunny who kept checking in on us making sure we were OK and had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend.

No music , late service have to wait for 30 min just for my drinks.

Sunny who works in Stratford Weatherspoon is an amazing guy.The owners of Weatherproof must really consider this guys future in the industry and help him.He has global/international potential .You lose him and you regret coz he will be global

Great example of a Wetherspoon. Fantastic food for the prices, and they had suitable shade for the very intense sun of the day.

I’ve put a review a few weeks ago on an assault of the black manager to one of my friends and I can see it has been taken down and nothing has been done about it. Clearly your workplace is for people who verbally and physically abuse people. Your reviews clearly are the same two managers being the white lady and the black man and nothing is being done. I would advise people to take these reviews seriously as you could be hurt in this establishment with nothing done about it! It’s disgusting.

terrible service, poor communication with customers

1 of the staff i think his name was amass he took ages to make my drink and he had a stinky attitude and insulted me!!!11!1! am traumatised

Can't order via the app, takes long to be served at the bar.

We found senior staff very lacking. However RiRi the young person who eventually served us made up for the rude behaviour. RiRi manor should be rewarded.

Garden is nice and cool and quick service if you using the app.

Food comes out faster than you can imagine! Always up to standards with nice staff.

All fine, slight mix up with food order but dealt with friendly and quickly, not been here for 10 years prior but def had improved since those days.

It was my anniversary and yes lovely atmosphere and big thanks to Taz and sunny . Thank you so much guys :) will visit again…

Overall the place is lovely but the service from the manager is absolutely disgusting and she has a severe attitude shouting at me over the bar while the pub is not busy telling me to go out the front when she should could have came over and said sorry the garden is close can you go out the front…that would have been fine but the attitude i was given was absolutely not professional at all especially from a manager - Her name was Becky , you should never make your customers feel uncomfortable and embarrassed like that! When confronted she sarcastically said sorry… Completely ruined my night!

The worst food ever! The steak is over cook! The potato mash chips and chicken wing's is cold , papercorn sauce is cold ! Most of the table has no waitress to cleaning ! I have been many weatherspoon restaurant before,and all was so well food is good service was great but this time in Stratford weather spoon restaurant is the worst and ever! Staff and chef need to be training again!

Great birthday celebration location.

Had a breakfast today in Wetherspoons Golden Grove the young girl that served me had a proper attitude. Try to overcharge me got that corrected and an attitude went from bad to even worse.

Very unprofessional staff, rude too. Table orders takes a lot of time.

Myself and another arrived at 14:15, we had a bike with us that we brought inside and placed it behind our table out of the way and not blocking anything. My friend went to the bar to order drinks, and I ordered food and drink on the app at 14:19. Our food arrived about 10 minutes later, All was fine until now. About 10 minutes later as we are half way though eating our food a female manager walks over and demands very rudely to take the bike outside, we ask if we can finish the food and we then leave, she doesn’t answer and just repeats “take the bike outside” we ask why and she says “healthy and safety”. We ask what is the health and safety aspect of a bike out of the way resting behind our seats. She just repeats health and safety over and over. We explain we don’t have a bike lock, she says that’s not her problem and it’s our responsibility. There was no signage not allowing bikes, and nothing is mentioned on the website. At this point we leave, food and drinks still on the table. Completely unacceptable, unbelievably rude and unprofessional.

I ordered my food on table then i moved to next table and i was waiting my order to be delivered from next table.. 2 guys sit on table then my food delivered and the guy suddenly started to eat my food in a second, i warned him and he said he order from bar blah blah he was lying and they ate my food in a couple minutes .. i let the waiters and manager they really helped and brought my food after an half hour but these 2 guys were still there and they laughed at me when i received my food, and i waited the security should kick them out of the pub because they stole my food and they behaved like nothing happened and they laughed at me.. i am coming this pub all the time even with my colleagues from company but from now one i will never ever come and eat anything at this pub! My order ID 9295 , 19.07.2024

For me it's a must everytime I go to London. Beautiful British atmosphere, excellent staff, delicious food and very cheap. I always come here with my kids (and we need to leave by 9pm) and always invite here any visitor I may have, it's a guarantee!!

Does what it says on the tin, everything you'd expect, quite a nice vibe, bar waiting times long for a Spoons, if you can't see bar staff use the app.

Good location, excellent beer garden. Reasonable value, service as many have pointed out is variable.

Lovely staff and fantastic breakfasts. Real value for money. Went here each day of our 4 days around London

Went for breakfast. Food was ok except waited ages for black pudding to arrive and then it was over cooked! Very cheap I guess you get what you pay for. Staff very friendly.

Ideal for a cheap and cheerful breakfast before a day of shopping in Stratford

Our food arrived before our drinks despite ordering them at the same time. We had to go and find our own drinks at the bar, as the ‘waitress’ said she was solely on food duty. Even when we went to the bar to order more drinks, the service was slow and poor. People who had been waiting for a while were ignored in favour of others who had been waiting a shorter amount of time. The food was lukewarm and the nachos looked like they’d been sat on the side for too long. By far the worst Wetherspoons I’ve ever been to.

I visited tonight and had an unpleasant experience with the service. Despite waiting patiently at the counter, the young barista around her twenty ignored me and she went to take glasses to organise the shelve when was my turn to order. This lack of attention and disregard for customer order was frustrating and disappointing. I hope the management addresses this issue to improve their service quality in the future.

Good pub. Good atmosphere. Average service from too few overworked staff. 2nd visit and again my favourite Ruddles unavailable.

If you wanna drink more in less budget the best place to visit, they have online app ordering as well beers and whiskeys with the best price as of what we ordered they have draught beers also and a place that is open late and they have an outdoor sitting but cannot smoke there so its a point down for that rather its a good bar 🍻 Cheers

Great spoons with reduced pricing compared to central London. Service is slow compared to other Wetherspoons, especially for drinks but gets the job done. Wish they had more TV's to watch the euros, the one's inside are not very well placed and pretty small.

Very poor service, even for 'spoons standards. Forgot part of 1 meal, when asked they said they would bring it. Never did.

This spoons is never going to blow you away. It is great for the price of food and drink, especially when a match is on, the vibe is really good. The food is hit and miss, depending on how busy it is, and the waiting times on match days is atrocious. I am still puzzled why they do not bring in more when West Ham have a game. Lots of seating in and out, though again come early if match is on otherwise you will be standing. Only 3 toilets for the ladies which is poor but otherwise pretty standard spoons. Would recommend for West Ham fans.

Everyone is nice and friendly..... Especially Sunny he is the best... We always enjoy our time there.... One of the best Wetherspoons... I would highly recommend it.......

Amazing service as always from Tracy and Louise, you should be very proud to have these two ladies as representives of your company, they are very friendly and take time to get to know their regular customers which is a bit rear these days, I appreciate their amazing service and would highly recommend the golden grove for a drink and food.

Was very busy and had to wait for a table but the security there was so polite and welcoming at the door and kept us updated on tables.

Table service was suspended as pub was busy. There was a concert nearby plus an England match, so atmosphere was good but queues for the bar were around 15 mins. We got nibbles and they were delivered in minutes, so the staff were trying hard to meet demand. I’d definitely return.

My go-to pub whenever I want to go out with friends! It has a nice interior and outdoor area, with very cost-effective food and drinks that come with good deals on the menu. The speed of service is the only real issue that I consistently encounter here, as it takes a while for the staff to clear abandoned tables.

Good for early meet ups with friends but. Late night spoons gets packed and cant get in. But really good overall

A fairly small pub for the chain. nothing unusual to report, prices are good value, staff were friendly. beer was fine. can't go wrong

The service was bad, as we received our food after an extensive wait of 30 minutes and were compelled to approach the bar to inquire about our our beverages. So we went to the bar, the guy with long hair emphasized their is a a wait time, despite the fact that we had already received our food. I informed the the guy that it had been nearly an hour since we placed our order so not sure what he was on about. Surprisingly, he requested the receipt, which he should have been able to access through their system. Regrettably, no apology was offered for the inconvenience caused. Would have been great if that guy wasn't rude. Guy with long hair please avoid.

Cheap food and drinks nice vibe just gets crowded very very quick with 2 stations for customers and 1 station for table service so when busy you going to wait for a pint 30 mins with other men breathing down your neck becouse there is no space

We have ordered just 3 drinks and after one hour we are still waiting. Awful

Never get your drink with your food always about half an hour later. Staff never look at the cue at the bar always serve the person nearest to them. No organisastion

I want to approach this from a different angle: looking at my fellow reviewers’ use of the English language (all of whom -by definition- have visited or continue to frequent Spoons), the question arises: how would anyone in their right mind want to frequent these pubs for any length of time anyway?? Top tip: by all means, visit for a quick, reasonably priced drink, BRIEFLY before a good night out. DO NOT, under any circumstances, tarry, particularly after dark…

It was an absolute joy to stop off for a light breakfast here. Louise was delightful and effervescent with all the customers and breakfast served with a smile by another lady. Well done!

Takes to long to get a drink food is good though plenty of room to sit down inside and outside

Good coffee and free refills. Lots of room.

It's about 10 mins from Stratford Station, but great value for breakfasts

Beckyee g she is the best Perfect mise en plus before mais One handed Musa is the best too

Unfortunately, I had the supreme burger who is anaemic lol My date asked for a well done steak and received "Burnt" steak. I did not like that no pepper was available or any form of spice. The meal came with drinks which encouraged us all to stay.

I went there yesterday, the food was amazing I had pizza and chicken wings… all the staff members are good… however there was one staff member, a boy with long hair who was too much rude and he insulted me and my friends… not going here again…

The Witherspoon chain is quite good although I have the impression that it is mostly visited by tourists rather than locals.

Had a coffee here, first we had to clear a table of dirty dishes, as every table needed cleaning. We were there for 3/4 hour in that time no tables were cleaned in our area. Very poor.

A large spoons with back garden . 10 mins walk from Westfield's and more a locals pub. I found it years ago when searching for somewhere to drink before a West Ham game . Staff are very welcoming
