Saltcoats in North Ayrshire

I have being coming here for years with my family for lunch/dinner and always enjoy a great meal. The service is quick. I would recommend the salad, it's as fresh as a daisy! The only downside is the mess of the tables at times. Staff need to be quicker at cleaning away plates and glasses for the next people sitting down. Nobody wants to go for a meal and sit for 10/15 mins with a table full of dishes. Worth a visit when in sunny Saltcoats!

This restaurant is fantastic for breakfast normally at that time in the morning it’s clean and tidy (ish) come the afternoon or dinner and everything is everywhere and just a mess! The food other than the breakfast 9/10 times isn’t right or over or under cooked I personally just come for the odd breakfast. The staff on my opinion are rather lazy (walking past tables that badly need cleared and cleaned down numerous times) such a shame as it’s in the heart of Saltcoats town.

We both visit here on a on a regular basis while in the area, the prices are not out of the way, the decor could do with upgrading the same as the toilets, we found the staff to be pleasant and attentive.

Popped in for lunch, food was OK but this review is really just to say how lovely all of the staff are. Nothing was too much trouble for then (we were a large group with lots of kids) and they were just so friendly and helpful. Thanks guys😀

Place is filthy walls carpet and seats skirting boards are even filthy place needs a really good deep clean people are still catching Covid keep on top of the cleaning regime please had to use a baby wipe to clean the table even menu was dirty but it was cheap and cheerful we had steak n chips it was very tasty prices are good it’s a town for tourists don’t let us down

We both visited this wetherspoons on the 23rd of March whilst staying in the area and not for the first time, we found the staff friendly and helpful, prices reasonable, the establishment itself to be average but reasonably clean worth a visit when in the area.

Came in this morning for fry up, I normally avoid here even though I’m local because of the mess of the place. Today wasn’t much different you can guarantee you’ll have to wipe down your own table before even sitting down it’s always the same! The manger is walking around with his oversized shirt tail hanging out (looks like he’s been dragged to work!) again not what your wanting to see especially from a manager? The breakfast is the ONLY reason I come back from time to time the breakfast is cheap and cheerful and delicious! However the staff let this place down badly!

Ordered two pints of pepsi with our dinner and got two half pints. Brought this up to a member of staff and was told I was wrong, but she would check and she appeared back with 2 pints because it turns out I was correct. I don't know what they had done, but the pepsi had no flavour, just sour bubbles. When I brought this up I she was happy to swap them this time, but the result was the same. I then asked the guy behind the bar to swap for Irn Bru, which was fine, but he gave me 2 cans and when I brought up that I had paid for pints, he said "Well I can't change the size of cans, can I?" Terrible service.

We both visited here on the 5th October, and not for the first time the place itself appears to have had a few alterations done to it, bi folding doors, new exterior lighting, even a paint job on the frontage, interior lighting have been fixed, a new carpet has been installed, plumbing in the toilets fixed, they have even put in a play area with toys and I can only presume that's not for the adults.

We decided to pop in for lunch as the food is usually nice and well priced . We sat down at a table , the place was fairly busy as it was a Saturday , we were looking at the menu when along came the long faced mature waitress she kicked the chair out the road and delivered food to the table next to us , she then came barging back shoving chairs out the way . Two minutes later she came back shoved the chair again and elbowed my daughter in the back . Enough is enough , no one needs to put up with bad service it’s not our fault she was working after all it’s the customer who pays the wages . We left .

food is disgusting everything is microwaved working as a chef in the past, you know what’s been cooked fresh and if it’s been microwaved which is literally just about everything on their menu including mashed potatoes and curries! disgusting

As the best chefs in the world will testify if you want to know if someone learned the basics properly at a culinary School ask for a egg. A Escoffier would have been proud of the Gammon steak and fried egg I had Wednesday evening (13th July) and it only cost me ten quid (including a pint). 20 years, 10's of thousands of miles traveling around the globe and the best properly basted fried egg I get served in all that time is in Saltcoats Wetherspoons, who would have bloody figured lol. Keep up the good work.

Ordered my usual vegetarian breakfast my brother ordered American breakfast both were disgusting was refused a refund hash browns were deep fried had that once before didn’t enjoy it,had many times before & was lovely so what’s happened only to be told nothing wrong with it,my brother bought me this & was refused a refund absolutely appalling attitude towards my complaint,I only go in there for my poor Mums sake as she has to be looked after, I will never eat in there again only for mums sake i have to be with her,so it will just be a coffee,appalling attitude thought the customer was always right ??

Food is nice and extremely responsible and affordable for all. The menu is large and has something for everyone to enjoy.

Most food is very nice and tasty and well enough prepared and excellent value for money. However, I would avoid the buttermilk chicken burger as they changed it about a year or so ago and its absolutely disgusting now and very poor quality, extremely tough and chewy!! Not really fit for sale in my opinion

My wife and I had a lovely meal at the Salt Cot. I had lemon chicken and my wife had the southern fried chicken. Both our meals were hot and tasty. The staff were all great too!

I pop into spoons in Saltcoats most Sundays for a meal and a few pints, tonight was no exception, ordered my meal and a pint of the marvelous Leffe. Sadly the steak or gristle was inedible . I said so to duty manager who immediately...

Wetherspoons - a staple of British culture, in which you are always promised cheap food and alcohol in a familiar environment. This specific Wetherspoons is really nothing special, all of the food tastes the exact same as any other Spoon's. However, the service in this...

This was the most filthy pub I’ve ever ver been to. Never in this entire pandemic have I ever felt the need to sanitise my entire arms. The table was covered in food and sticky, and remained sticky even after we managed to get someone...

We went in to the beer garden at the Salt Cot for a soft drink, service was terrible and the drinks were all flat, spoke to manager, who said he would send someone out, twenty minutes later, still no-one, went back in, young fella came...

I visited SALT COT Wetherspoons pub in SALTCOATS 1/10/20 and chatted good naturedly with waitress on arrival.When I ordered, I was OVERCHARGED about £1.50 for the meal by the same waitress. I didn't report it because who knows what they'd do to the food.So,I let...

We both visited here and not for the first time, whilst in the area, we found the staff to be extremely unattentive and sloppy, when you go to the bar to get served, you suddenly become invisible, the food (an all day breakfast) was very...

Great atmosphere. A saturday night, very busy and a noisy friendly crowd. Bar staff were all friendly and efficient and the usual great choice of beers at good prices. Well worth a visit

Been in many times with my family for bites to eat and dinner it’s very disappointing compared to other weatherspoons in Ayrshire tables are always a mess! With plates cups and rubbish left on them the floor normally has papers and napkins lying around I...

Really disappointed in this pub/restaurant. More like being in an old self serve cafeteria and no ambiance of a pub or of a restaurant ... so what is it really ... as I said an overpriced self serve cafeteria. VERY BAD for a so-called pub/restaurant...

Been here fairly regularly since moving into the town and have never been disappointed. Couldn't believe the special of Chicken Jalfrezi rice, naan and poppadom for £3.99! Nothing fancy, just good food and quick service from efficient and friendly staff.

Celebrating 20 years at saltcoats soon, you would think Wetherspoon's would refurbish this rather dated establishment by now, the staff are helpful and pleasant, the prices are reasonable, food average, it also has an outdoor area for the better weather, but is quite poor in...

Revolting breakfast, items missing from all plates, food undercooked and served cold. Staff unapologetic and rude.

Typical Wetherspoons brilliant for the working man with live sports. Plenty of puggies and cheap pub grub. The kids meals are great I must admit with a activity on back of kids menu. Food I find in this place is a bit hit or miss....

As always the food is great only complaint is they sometimes run out of my first choice as the food is fresh great food and great prices staff are always friendly

visited for a family meal, food was pretty decent and the prices very good however the service is dire, the girl who served the food was actually ok but the bar staff who take your order and get your drinks are woeful. 3 out of...

Went here twice during our holiday this week and had the most amazing meal, no complaints whatsoever. Meals were hot on arrival and cheap as anything not to mention the drinks. Prices were fantastic as well as customer service

We both visited here on a sunny 27th of march and not for the first time , however, we found the staff less selective on whom to serve first , (UNLIKE THE LAST TIME) we were both visiting this establishment, prices reasonable , food is...

Went to toilets smelly and filthy black marks on toilet doors ripped Lino people could trip up In toilets

My partner and I took her family for lunch 2 Sundays ago and found the food and service to be imptoving. The food seems to be cheaper than in Glasgow but every bit as good. We will be back

A bit of a disappointing evening. We found a table which unfortunately was dirty. Fortunately someone had left a cleaning spray and a cloth so I duly wiped the table unfortunately there was nothing that could be done about the mashed food on the carpet....

I like the fact you get Scottish food & it’s always cooked pretty well and the price is great. Order at the bar, food served to the table. It never appears very clean so don’t look too close. Good for a brunch or hangover breakfast....

Went with mum to get a quick drink had to get out the place was stinking like someone had being sick, the place is getting worse.

Good menu and lots of offers very reasonable prices. Service was good and quick, love the raspberry lemonade.

Popped in for just a drink wine out of tap discussing noticed a meal arrived burnt burgers your usual place still stinking but not busy not be in for a while very rude staff one member I am reporting to head office she screamed at...

We popped in most evenings for a couple of pints after exploring all day. It was busy every time we went in and packed to the rafters on a Saturday evening with people eating. Nice staff and good atmosphere. Cheaper lager than down south

Inexpensive pub fare. Because prices are kept low this establishment welcomes some of the towns less demanding patrons. Cleanliness proves to be a bit of a challenge at busy times

Lovely meal, 6 of us ate here and each meal was delicious and cooked to perfection. Great value for money and pleasant staff.

Heel lekkere cider thatchers van het vat en bangers and mash lekker, veel en niet te duur. Bestellen aan de...

7 of us came in for breakfast, we weren’t expecting much but we were really surprised. Everything was cooked perfectly, the ingredients seemed really good too, especially the haggis & black pudding. Quick service and they were fairly friendly, I know this place goes through...

The chicken burger was burnt also saturated in greese you could not eat it, the smell of unwashed people next to me made me feel sick, wine glass had lipstick on it it will be the last visit here.

Came here on two occasions with my friends for dinner and drinks. Both occasions have been Thursdays, which is curry night. Had the korma with garlic naan - hard to beat. Order via app, super quick orders! Pitchers are good here for only £5.99!

Good Variety of drinks (including real ales) and always a lively atmosphere in the bar! Great prices too compared to the area!

We had a lovely steak dinner with wine for two people and it was very tasty and reasonably priced - staff lovely as well. Well worth a visit, will definitely be back.

Went there last Thursday for a Curry but found they had a Special offer on for Sirloin Steaks. Ordered a medium to well done steak with chips, mushroom and peas. What a got was a black overcooked dried up steak. Pointed this out twice to...

We have eaten at quite a few Weatherspoons over the years and have had more than our fair share of curry nights . The curry at this Weatherspoons at the moment is really fantastic . The onion bahji and samosa is cooked to perfection,nice and...

We visit this wetherspoons when in the area, staff are usually pleasant, however on this.occasion I found some of the staff reluctant to serve, especially non regular customers, also found the table we were at requiring a good clean, overall the place is probably in...

Been to a few weatherspoons this one big in side a few seats outside lot of seating inside clean and not to noisy must wait a bit to get served as no order cue so people customers standing around waiting to get served

This was our first visit to this branch of the spoons ( and probably our last ) we used the app to order for the first time and it was spot on, no sooner pressed to send our order than the drinks arrived The waiter...

Went in with my son ordered food his chip smelled got onion rings instead ordered pudding his warm cooks dough off hard I tasted it asked for different pudding got refund instead

Popped in after work and place was busy. Found table in corner. Usual Wetherspoons menu so no surprises. Food ordered and delivered quickly as expected. Not bad venue for Saltcoats but maybe gents toilets could do with a freshen up / refurb. Town centre location.

A pleasant atmosphere and enjoyable lunch. Busy but the staff were pleasant and kept the tables clear.

We had taken a trip to Glasgow and gone on to Saltcoats in search of some sea air.It was cold but dry,and we walked all morning to work up an appetite.At one oclock we called in at the above for a drink and some food.Soon...

Called in here as a second choice. It was their steak night and my partner decided on the steak whilst I settled on Gammon steak. The gammon steaks tasted strange and I found the corner of a plastic pouch amongst my very soggy chips. Member...

brilliant food., Reliable and Helpful staff. superb customer service. I will go back to it once again. amazing menu selection of meals and drinks.

Wetherspoons, our usual restaurant of choice for a quick bite to eat. Usually the restaurant in Irvine, The Auld Brig. However, being in saltcoats we had decided to try the Salt Cot. We went to order food, which at previous restraunts by wetherspoons was never...

You have a good choice of a meal or just a snack and the price is good nice seating at window and a ramp for prams or wheel chair to get in

We keep coming back here.. Good food at very reasonable prices. Friendly staff...good atmosphere, no music to interfere with any conversation your having with friends...Great place to eat anytime of the day or night.

The app works well and so impressed first time. However, a major flaw in the app is that you have to put in all the numbers from the credit card each time. So poor and not done by other sites I use where the info...

The Saltcot follows the usual Wetherspoons formula - good beer and decent food at affordable prices. With friendly staff and a pleasant environment, what's not to like?

Had coffee and drinks here yesterday and can't complain.Although it is self service for tea and coffee the prices are good.

Went in here for a quick pint of ale , the selection was very poor and I got the end of a cask drink but did not ask for a change due to poor choice , staff didn't seem to bothered . Not a place...

The Saltcot is the best pub in Ayrshire, They serve under agers like myself. Pitcher's could be bigger and cheaper though.

We went tonight-----Got a seat next to the window----No problems ordering our meal and drinks....Bar staff and the 2 females who served our meals were very nice to talk to and very pleasant...The meals as usual were very well cooked and presented....The was no music...
