Liquorice Gardens in Bassetlaw

Great place for breakfast. We use the app to order and food & drink always arrive promptly with a smile. We can't really complain about the food, you get what you pay for.

The food unbeatable and staff are rude. Will not go in again need a new manger and staff Ordered a medium to rare. Aberdeen Angus Steak but a very very well dun come sent it back staff tuting then five seconds a well dun sirloin come out as I payed two pounds moor

Ordered a meal, the steak wasn't as I requested. They soon took it away and cooked the meal again, and it was lovely, enjoyed it. Quickly sorted out the problem and apologised. The drinks are a very good price. I have had many other meals since.

Nice atmosphere, excellent service good prices

I had breakfast here on Monday the 14th . A few of us got together to have breakfast on the day of my sister's funeral. I had mushroom Benedict and it was beautiful and the service was great. I went in again today the 18th there were 4 of us. My mum ordered 2 mushroom Benedicts and beans on toast. My mum and friend went to the hot drinks machine. One mushroom Benedict came out straight away and the beans on toast came with a poached egg on the top . The beans on toast were cold and it needed warming up. The mushroom Benedict was on the table a fair while because there was a problem with the drinks machine. It turns out the member of staff who took the order didn't listen because instead of ordering two mushroom Benedicts they only ordered one and put a poached egg on the beans on toast. It was busy at breakfast time but the staff still needed to listen when people placed their order

Food isn't too bad. Just cheap pub grub, burger only came with a few chips, no side salad or garnish. Just looked a little poor. All staff were friendly and service was great.

Price increase. Not bad on a Monday. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere.

Didn't have a kid's manu so had to go somewhere else and yes I understand that it's on line but didn't have time to do all that

Spicy chicken fry is a must try !!

Was my very first time in the Wetherspoon. Came with friends and had breakfast and some beer after. Good food and service altogether.

Ordered food which after 40 mins didn't arrive, had to cancel and refund.

My god they should invest in 3 microwaves per pub at witherspoon pubs so we can heat the food like they do abroad. Beans cold , egg cold and toast not even toasted How can you not send beans out hot as its 15 seconds in microwave. Will never eat at witherspoon again but will drink as its cheap for drinks . Time to stop doing food

worst spoons Ive ever been in and ive done a few only one coffee machine working and to only have two machines for this size pub is ridiculous and talking to locals its always like this the only spoons I will never return to. Needs sorting out

Had to wait half a hour for breakfast arrived cold and not very nice I have been in since this and had a lovely breakfast so I think it's getting much better

Nice relaxing pub, good job the wife was driving because the beer was excellent... Parking just around the corner was really cheap too.

It’s a Spoons, does what it says on the tin. Can’t knock it.

Good food and very good value prices, a typical wetherspoons. The cookie dough sandwich is a dessert I would 100% recommend.

Nice place, friendly staff and quick service but no eggs for our breakfasts.

The usual whetherspoons had a couple of pints in there on the Saturday night went back Sunday morning for a small breakfast the nice lady that served me suggested I go for the traditional breakfast it was on offer at £3.14 such excellent value couldn't fault it fried egg beans sausage 2 bacon 2 hash browns toast

Great, quick service and good value food

Had to send steak back because it was still mooing! It was replaced with no fuss.

First time here will definitely return

This was a great pub for lunch, with a compact design! This includes circled lights and comfy, enclosed seating, counter is well-presented too. Beef Madras full meal was tasty but the sauce was not spread at all on my Naan bread, which was not good service. However I took the service rating up to 4 stars because the staff cleaned up when I accidentally spilt my Pepsi, pint of Carling was something else I enjoyed indulging in!

I'm confused after reading the reviews I must of just had bad service everyone knows spoons is cheap and cheerful but for the type of meal I had and how it came and the price I paid it wasn't Worth it had steak and chips bit confused it never came with a small bit of salad, it looked very bland the grill the steak was cooked on needed a good clean because you could taste all the other cooks on it, the chips are frozen because 3/4 chips where still hard in the middle, onion rings was nice place looked clean but the food was not worth it

Good was beautiful lovley portions

Yes it's a spoons but out of all the ones I've visited it was one on the nicest. Never have I ordered a Hendricks and it been served with cucumber (even though this it what it states on menu). Top marks Worksop. Didn't eat but plenty of people where and what I saw looked well cooked and nicely presented, definitely better than some other places which I won't name. Staff were extremely pleasant and cleared tables quickly despite how busy it was. Toilets were clean and well maintained.

Tbf decent food n drink, good atmosphere, alittle loud but we were too,

Nice pub and a good selection of beers on offer.

Well, it's a wetherspoons... Nasty, sticky, but at least it's cheap. I guess you get what you pay for.

Typical Witherspoon's what you see is what you get !!!

Lovely pub with lots of booths. Beautifully decorated and fab sheltered outside space which was a lovely sun trap

My home away from home. Curry Club Thursdays I love you so much. I would do unspeakable things for spoons garlic naan.

Had to come in to town early. Decided to come to Liquorice Gardens for breakfast. £4.18 for traditional breakfast and unlimited tea. Prompt service and pleasant staff.

One of the best Wetherspoon's I've been to for food. I don't often order food from Wetherspoon's as I've had some bad experiences in the past in other pubs, however I've sampled a few meals from here including breakfasts and it's always been really good - well presented, hot and tasty. Service is very quick and the staff are lovely. Definitely one of the better ones.

Just a post to say how great the staff are. Very polite, friendly and extremely hard working. If not serving they are collecting or cleaning. First class and a credit to Wetherspoons!

Not a good visit today. Customers sat at tables, swearing, and not quietly. Staff appear oblivious, or told not to say anything. If I was with a guest I would have said something.

A nice spoons a good breakfast sandwich and coffee

Great food together with smashing atmosphere. It's clean and tidy and safe secure and the staff always are approachable

Went to meet an ex work colleague to catch up on things and although the pub was busy everything went like clockwork. The staff were friendly anf efficient avoiding long queues whilst keeping the tables cleared and the place looking tidy. We are planning on meeting more regularly and this will be our venue of choice.

Ok for a wetherspoons, could do with a re vamp

It's a weather spoons. Speaks for itself. Decent food, decent drink. Staff are good at what they do 👍

The employees are very good, especially the female employees are polite and very kind to the customers, thank you very much. I didn't have a chance to try the food, I'm sure they are very good like the others.

The food was horrible all burnt and yucky, also took ages to come out I would like a refund

A solid Weather spoons that's well-maintained, clean and pleasant with friendly and efficient staff. It wasn't busy at all on a Sunday night, but exactly what we were looking for.

Ok pub grub but needs a desperate makeover now it's looking tired and dated.

Food was ok , staff were busy but friendly enough, it's ok for a quick bite to eat

Popped in for breakfast this morning with my daughter first time eaten here so hence why leaving review Ordered a eggs Benedict and a traditional breakfast and two pints lime and soda can to £11.49 Breakfast came out promptly looked nice and tasted lovely The ham on my eggs Benedict was lovely also my daughter said her breakfast was nice too Great value good produce Enjoyed it

Went to The Gardens for breakfast as we past through on our way elsewhere. It's a Wetherspoons? Check. Traditional breakfast? Check. Vaguely crusty cutlery? Check. Rock solid fried egg resembling a dangerous frisby? Check. Warm bacon? Check. Lightly toasted toast with butter harder than a house brick? Check. Baked beans with skin? Check. Cheap sausage? Check. Soft hash browns? Check. Headache inducing coffee? Check. Same old, same old? Check. Mens toilets awash with all manner of fluids everywhere but the toilets themselves? Check.

One of the smaller Spoons I’ve been in despite that it’s in the 2024 Good Beer Guide - on the Andersons Red Ale available in all Spoons for St Patrick’s Day. Be sure to look down at the carpet - a Wetherspoon classic 👍🏻

It was Thursday afternoon and wasn't too busy. My wife had bbq chicken melt which she said was good. I had 3 small plates of a pizza, loaded chips and Southern fried chicken strips. They were nice but there was just too much. But at £14+ it was a bargain. Nice pub to eat. One thing I noticed was the cleanliness. It wasn't like your typical spoons with mess everywhere.

Friendly staff and very helpful

Great place for meal and drink. 16 of us came and service was quick and friendly. Thank you!

Called in for a hot chocolate. Was busy.

Nice place to go for a few pints , good selection of beer on tap & bottles , food is standard weather spoons & can’t beat the price

Fantastic staff on the restaurant floor, but the food was very disappointing, small portions and higher prices.

Great place, great prices. And you can have a chat without having to shout.

The Liquorice gardens are very nice and the staff are very friendly we had a beautiful meal in the Liquorice gardens we will call again

Out with the walking team and called for dinner

Stood at the bar ready to order food and was ignored. Bar staff made eye contact and then said nothing. I turned around at one point and saw people queuing at the end of the (fairly long) bar. I joined the end of this queue which I hadn't seen because what kind of place queues people through the tables when there's a full length bar? Was eventually served and then when I was walking away I saw another lady being ignored cause she didn't realise she was stood in the wrong place. Don't mind waiting my turn at all but don't ignore people, direct them to the queue!

Usual wetherspoons menu.foodok.Drinks very good price. Nice atmosphere.

Meal was lovely, wide range on the menu Good value, liked that there was a drink included in meal.

Staff are amazing, can't do enough for you,food is lovely and tasty, the toilet is lovely and clean abs the best witherspoon by far.

Staff were all very friendly. Not too busy which was perfect for someone socially awkward. I will say the portions are stingy and drinks heavily watered down so not best value.

Needs a good cleaning and the decor needs updating

Enjoy breakfast mostly n ur special nites like burns nite all 7 members go there to eat thanku😁

It's a Spoons. Quiet at 5 o'clock.

Great service, good home cooked food, lovely staff.

Table for sixteen, lots of individual orders, but everyone got what they ordered, we cleared them out of ribbey on steak night.

At Wetherspoon you get good food for a reasonable price

Not the best spoons in the world, but hey cheap beer and food, what more do you want? Apparently it's got award winning toilets too!

Staff are very friendly and quite attentive but the security team have 'power' issues, I was asked to leave after 2 pints for apparently being sick, honestly I was well etc but was spoken to like I was causing trouble and made to feel if they want to free up space they will bully you into leaving while ignoring any of the actual problem customers making noise etc, food is all from a freezer warmed up in microwave and burgers are normal cremated or black , eat elsewhere but drinking is fine if you're allowed to that is

Was refused service and accused of being sick in the toilet sink. They where adamant it was me and when I said it wasn’t they called me a liar and said they saw me on cctv. Which is impossible as there aren’t even cameras in the toilets so not sure how that works out. Someone got it wrong and jumped to conclusions as I must of been in the wrong place at the wrong time. Bare in mind I was one of the few people not drinking in the pub at the time as I’ve been working on my sobriety. It’s all water off a ducks back to me, I just hate being accused of something I haven’t done and would never do. Anyway, keep up the good work. You never know Mr Weatherspoon might give you a pay rise eventually.

Busy , traditional Wetherspoons. Know one you know them all. Helpful staff,,good vfm. Slightly dated Interior. It is what it is. Central to town. Good parking nearby. After 1800 Sundays free all day in nearby off road car parks as well . Use the app to order table service. £1.89 a pint of Worthington s ... What's not to like. £1.49 all day coffee or tea !. Remembrance day2023 - busy,busy busy. Dealing with it admirably ... Well-done to all the staff...

Popped in for a drink and a mea,l fast friendly service

Go every night with wife @ daughter what great staff very friendly pub good food

The food was good, friendly service

Preferred John Smiths but beggars can't be choosers

Great pizza believe it or not. Fresh and hot.

Stumbled across this establishment yesterday as we we're looking for somewhere for lunch , have too say was very impressed with the layout , staff , quality of food and atmosphere, the toilets were very nice and clean too , overall a lovely experience, definitely recommend 👏 👏

Overall is good including food and service.

Food was standard Spoonies but can't complain as it was great value as usual.

Lovely place great food even the desert was fantastic

Was quite hungry after doing a weight cut for a boxing match I had traveled from Ireland for. Didn't take time to look at the breakfast menu and ordered the traditional breakfast. When it came down there were 8 slices of bacon and 3 eggs as well as the normal hash brown beans etc...... Couldn't fault the portion sizes. Service was great too if a little judgemental. But will definitely be back x

Once again another good visit to a spoons. Visited late Monday afternoon it wasn't busy. I had the ultimate burger which came with onion rings and chips. My wife had scampi and chips with onion rings. Both very good and represent excellent value for money. The scampi is as good as anywhere else. Will visit again.

Can't fault it, I had the ultimate burger with chips and onion rings. My wife had scampi and chips with onion rings. Would recommend to anyone for a cheap meal.

My mother and father in law treated my wife and I to supper here and we had a very pleasant experience. I had the katsu chicken breast curry and I would say that the chicken was a little dry, but all the other meals, I am told, were all quite tasty.

Had a good breakfast. Typical spoons what you would expect. Egg was little overdone but everything else was okay. Coffee machines easy to use.

We ate here on Saturday lunchtime and it was good. I ordered the half chicken which I love and my husband a burger, the meals in Weatherspoons are great value and do what they say on the tin as they are not gourmet dining but are filling and tasty. The pun itself was busy but there were plenty of tables and as usual great customer service.

Food was ok but the pub was really nice

Typical Weatherspoons menu. Very attentive staff. Food hot, presented well. Throughly enjoyed the meal. Will call in again when in the area. Disabled parking just outside the front door, Moor parking to the side of the building.

Nice classic witherspoon, clean and nice but food took a while

Lovely Spoons. Breakfast was great.. but no parking outside the building. There's is a public car park 2 mins walk away, which was ok for the party I was with but I have disabled ppl in my family and had they been with us it wouldn't have been so easy, although there are disabled spaces right outside, obviously there is no guarantee they would be free.

Sat in outside area quick drink whilst waiting for bus, good location

You can't go wrong with a Weatherspoons tea. I had American Buger & Chips and husband had 8" pizza and was plenty for a light tea. Excellent value for money, really prompt and perfect every time. The lady that served me was really welcoming and friendly. I particular like this Weatherspoons because of the booths. A lot less intimidating but to he fair it is a friendly venue anyway so not end of world if I didn't get a booth. We've been several times over many years and it's great every time. Would deffo recommend and we will go again too.

A good Whetherspoons. Helpful staff.

Not been in for some time but This place is desperately needing a refurb

We ordered a breakfast. You'd think from a spoons, what could go wrong. The toast was burnt and when asked for a replacement the staff looked at us funny and walked off. The eggs were still with white runny and the beans were cold. The sausages were srivalled up and it was a horrible breakfast. The place was also quite mucky

First time in this wetherspoons, had a large vegetarian breakfast,my son the large breakfast with black pudding. Everything excellent.

Very friendly service and excellent place

Erm,it's a spoons,full of locals,who were friendly enough..
