Sandford House in Huntingdonshire

They have recently changed the coffee machines which now produce barely warm coffee that is far too strong. In addition the hot chocolate is no longer available from the machine, only in sachets that must be requested from a staff member. Will be looking for a new place for an early breakfast.

Called in for a coffee a lovely pub lovely decor very reasonably priced highly recommended.

Quirky spoons with a rich history. The religious theme solidifies my faith in beer and chips.

Wonderful rooms, In my view considerably better than Premier Inn. Breakfast much better value and the staff were great.

Good atmosphere. Food Good. Good service.

best Whetherspoon so far, lovely place to stay room was in perfect condition, and the pub... old post office combined with old chapel like building, and between them italianlike place with hanging flowers and small tables, old fireplace in the middle and plenty of space around

Bar staff want you to die of thirst waiting for a drink so they don’t have to serve you.

Stayed for one night in hotel and ate in attached pub on a couple of occasions. As mentioned in other reviews no parking is available directly for the hotel, however there is a drop off point and staff have info available about a CCTV monitored cheap car pack a 5 minute walk away. Rooms are basic but clean and given the reasonable prices are perfectly adequate. Staff we found are a mixture of helpful and welcoming to disinterested and Petty, one appearing to enjoy reprimanding one of our party for vaping in an outdoor area which had no signs up (and not indicating where they could go) before turning back to chat to his friends at a nearby table. Food was as expected for a wetherspoons, reasonably priced and of reasonable quality. If needing to stay somewhere in the area it is worth using.

An old church attached to a post office. Clean and popular. Lovely food delivered quickly

Had the traditional breakfast, just right. Large one would have been too much. Very nice coffee.

It's a cool place to go and meet with family and friends

Mixed up serving food 2 got theirs then rest had to wait.

Perfect place to enjoy pitchers of Pimm's with friends who are travelling around Europe. Looking forward to returning soon. Our American friends enjoyed a late afternoon snack of chips and mushy peas 😜

Top notch spoons, validated by several family and friends who have stayed in the hotel section. Friendly and helpful staff.

Always love it Chicken wings and fav aperol grande

Weatherspoons in Huntingdon same as usual it's a nice enough place beer was ok. I couldn't get the app to work?

Poor beer selection compared to other Spoons in the region.

This place is really good! I stayed for a few nights in the hotel and used the pub during my stay. It was awesome. I only assume the management is really good because the place is clean, the staff are excellent and the food was great. From the moment I arrived I was well taken care of, check in was easy. Every meal I had was great and the pub team were polite and attentive. At 6:45am, just before the pub opened for breakfast, the place was full of people cleaning, tidying and preparing for the day ahead. There was even a lady outside cleaning the pavement and digging out weeds that had grown at the side of the road! The hotel room was really nice, clean and comfortable.

Good location for the town centre

Quite a smart Spoons. Enjoyed lunch with a friend

The place is massive and a lot of choices where to sit, which is good... but they keep burning those chicken wings which I really like. Overall is a nice place

Great pub ,food hot and beer cold,free coffee refills. Nice outside area,sat sunning ourselves. Very large inside ,bar is in old chapel.

The Sandford House is a good wetherspoons. It is smaller than a lot of wetherspoons i have been to and has a Cosy feel to it. There is a small cosy gallery accessed by a very narrow steep staircase. The staff are very friendly and attentive, there was an excellent choice of beers lager and cider including cask conditioned hand-pulled real ales at very cheap prices. The beers we sampled were in excellent condition. The food was good, the fish and chips perfectly cooked and the gormet burger was good and very filling. There is a nice outside seating area behind the pub in a courtyard next to the hotel.

Great find in busy Hungtindon, tucked away but still well patronised. Service and food was great

Typical weatherspoons fayre. You know what you are getting, Friendly staff reasonably priced food, quick service.

Food could have been warmer, also because we were sitting next to where the food is plated, we notice that it can sit there waiting going cold to be picked up to go to the table. Could be served quicker. Otherwise, we enjoyed the freedom breakfast even though the food was warm but not hot. Seating chairs could be cleaner, most covered in food splatters gone black in the fabric, shame as it let's the customer satisfaction to be dragged down, also seems to be the norm across the whole of England as we travel extensively and use weatherspoons alot, maybe we should change venues, it's a thought.

I often go in and have a good experience but when the food is not edible and you complain politely they don’t want to know ! In fact they walk away whilst you are still talking !

Despite being one of the busiest places I regularly eat at, they've never got my order wrong. The food is always hot, drinks cold, prices great. Good choice for eating solo or with friends.

First class, great value breakfast today. Lunch today first day of summers.

Took a loooooooooong time for the food to arrive. That said, the food was alright and the drinks were equally OK.

Pretty good Wetherspoons. Food was good, service on point as usual for 'spoons. - recently visited, and the food was 100% and staff was attentive

Great food and very courteous service.

Been here loads of times now and never had a bad meal lovely staff all friendly Great bar with good selection of beverages Always clean Love this spoons

Great spoons but shame went a duty manager discriminates against someone when no involvement was there..Wetherspoons is needed in Huntingdon but managers attitude need to change as regular money make the diffidence

You know what to expect at 'Spoons , a nice brekkie with plenty of coffee . Cheers v much

Awful service tonight and wasn't exactly busy. Going to avoid from now on

Better than most of the wetherspoons

Ideal if you want somewhere for a couple of days good clean rooms Good Food breakfast and steaks great prices just cannot fault it everything you want under One Roof

Ist visit to this "Spoons" well appointed modern pub with sunny gardens. Good service on a busy Sunday lunchtime.

Nice wetherspoons. Food was very good.

A perfect place to meet friends. Competitive prices.

I always come here the service is very good and the staff are lovely I have never had a bad time here with the food

Top quality Spoons - just what you want and expect from them. It's in a beautiful building that dissipates noise really quite well too, and there's more than ample seating. They weren't the quickest ever to serve, but effortlessly corrected an ordering error where I got the table numbers the wrong way around!

Excellent place for a decent lunch for price.

Fantastic atmosphere detailing the history of the building which is very well thought out and nicely finished. The food was good, exactly what you'd expect from a Whetherspoon's and the service was with a smile and a quick turnaround. Would definitely recommend.

Good prices, nice atmosphere with historical roots. However, I am not a fan of ordering and paying in an app. Would have liked to pay in cash.

Very anti-cyclist - don't ever even think about going there

Cheap drinks, cheap food, problem is they both tasted cheap, not the usual standard of food here.

staff are a bit too loud tbf lol

Went in for a quick couple of pints. Very good beer, and the chips were very good.

One of the spoons I have been to great place

You get what you pay for it's cheap and cheerful it was good for the price and staff were very friendly

Manners go along way! I understand you might be busy but don’t take that out on your customers. Majority of the younger staff are great and eager to please. The food is great considering how cheap it is. The place is always very tidy. The beer garden lets it down. Much better since Covid but it needs remodelling. Not child friendly. Toilets are always clean. The security staff almost look for confrontation on a regular basis. Overall your standard Wetherspoons. Cheap beer, cheap food.

Me and my friends thought that we had ordered another drink to which we went to the bar to ask if we had and were met by the rudest staff members with an awful attitude when all i asked was if we had ordered another drink as it had been 30 minutes since the first 2 had originally came after apologising for the confusion and went to leave the staff member at the bar responded with "maybe actually add the drink to your order next time" so unbelievably rude for no reason when we were nothing but polite to them just asking to find out whether we had actually ordered a drink or not.

We are regular customers and have used the same table since it opened great management team and staff 👍💖

Lovely pub food was excellent,I had a large Mixed Grill. After working in the Pub trade for many years,the waiting staff were like robot's. No enjoy your food or After eating it was everything alright, otherwise I had a pleasant couple of hrs.

Miners benedict perfectly cooked and delicious!

Very comfortable and affordable Great breakfast

Visited the Huntingdon Wetherspoon many times, unfortunately the last few visits being ones not to remember, senior management seem extremely hostile to anyone that raises a complaint or concern, or even dares to question anything , this hostility seems to be rubbing off on the lower management too, customer service is well below what you would expect from a company like Wetherspoon. If I go again I’ll just use the app to limit interaction with the obnoxious, rude pub management. On a plus, I’ve never had an issue with the food and floor staff seem attentive, the management could learn a thing or two from them.

I have to say probably the best Wetherspoons breakfast I have had. Would recommend 👍

Incorrect information due to drinking laws and policy’s .weights and Measurements act clueless for a representative of the business.

Very rude staff but food excellent

Did not have any food. The place was packed on sat 100224. Good selection of beers. Managed to get a seat,as I was travelling solo.

As Spoons go this is one of the nicest. Group of 9 if us called in for breakfast on a Friday morning. Food was served quickly by friendly helpful staff. Weirdly, some if the nicest pub toilets I've been in!

The Sandford House is much better than JD Wetherspoon in St Ives. You don't get a blast of cold air when people walk in and out of the restaurant.

Ordered a pint and a Curry. The beer was fine but the curry was absolutely freezing cold and not even warm. I sent it back and it was replaced with a hot one. But it should not happen...

The place is clean, the food is average and good, the service is polite, good value for money, the atmosphere is good, the restaurant is worth visiting

Not sure what I expected to be fair but for approximately 100 pound for the night I got just what a Premier Inn would offer for less than half the price,there was no parking facilities.My son and daughter in law picked me up from the station and on trying to check in they were told that they weren’t allowed inside the building or allowed to enter my room and had to wait outside unless it was raining as check in person said that they themselves had a heart and would allow them inside the very tiny check in area,wish I could say I was so grateful for the sentiment,can I just add that prior to checking in I had to phone for someone to come to reception area as not just I but two other parties were ringing reception bell to enter hotel with no one operating the area,someone had to come from bar area in a separate building,not impressed.There were many cancellations with train services from London to Huntingdon on the day I travelled due to strike action,I had before seen revised train operations contacted hotel to see if I could check in earlier as from looking on LNER train app I would have to get an early morning train service,I was visiting my son and his wife with newborn and didn’t want to put them out with rushing around early morning to accommodate me,I got a response approximately 12 hours later saying the earliest I could check in was 1300hrs instead of 1400hrs at a cost of 20 pounds,not sure I was too impressed about that either,I could go on with the dissatisfaction with service I received with certain bar staff that evening but at this point I’m far too tired to even find the words,this was rated as a fabulous place to stay,perhaps I’ve been too spoilt in life but as a nurse struggling to make ends meet I think I’ve been rather fair in my comments,very disappointed ☹️

We had a lovely meal, generous portions, good location, and quiet. The staff were pleasant.

Great historical Wethers....Nice pint of Ale..

Busy and quite loud but in a nice way, people laughing and chatting and generally having a good time. Food was good, hot and tasty and quickly served. Price is very affordable, 2 main meals and 2 drinks £20. Good value

Magic from magic and a huge thank you for Dan … a lovely evening .. nothing but compliments to all the staff .. after my leaving his phone on the table .. they had put it safely behind the bar until we came back to collect it ..

Good cheap boozer for a pub stop before a football away game. Didn’t eat but mate had some chips that was quick service. Huge place and appeared popular

We went to Weather Spoon's for an evening meal, the food was very cheap and you got a drink included in the order. All of this is done on the app at the table. The food was Ok for the cost and I think you would be at push to find anywhere with food and a drink for the price they charge

Better than all the rest. Great food. Blinding.

Was accompanied by a disabled friend who uses a mobility scooter, and crutches to walk. On entering we both went directly to the left side of the bar where the lager taps are. We were told to move, impolitely as we wouldn't get served there, ..no compassion or regard was displayed to my disabled friend, the tall male (manager?) male, was rude, obnoxious, arrogant, and showed no regard whatsoever towards disabled people. Avoid st all costs if disabled, or simply just because they obviously discriminate against disabilities without even knowing.

All I can say us Harry Potter sinks in the lady's toilets are worth a visit. The sinks of myth and legend

Went for breakfast I must say some of the staff could do with a refresher course in customer service ...it's not the first time some staff haven't been very courteous..

Since it is the only place in the center of town....

Ordered breakfast but it took so long we had to cancel and ask for a refund after nearly an hour. Unfortunate but the staff were very helpful and friendly and arranged the refund without any fuss

Don't bother going there the meal was total rubbish chef needs to brush up on how to cook steak properly, three items missing from menu by the time staff replaced same meal was stone cold, third visit like this. Tell chef kill the beast before serving this rubbish. Moo blood running all over plate. Staff could not care less. I WONT BE COMING BACK NEITHER WILL SEVERAL FRIENDS ALL SAY THE SAME. GOURMET STEAK I THINK NOT. RUBBISH, SHOOT THE CHEF.i was a regular customer not any more.

Nice relaxing place and breakfast was awesome

Lovely building with plenty of tables and very clean. Lovely ladies toilets

Great beer variety with good prices. The stuff is very friendly.

Professional staff very well run in my opinion not a surprise as weatherspoons never seems to let me down keep up the good work

Very good place to eat and chill Polite staff very helpful Food is great as always in Wetherspoons Lots of seats Nice cosy place to chill have some food and a drink and charge up if needed 10/10 100% recommend With definitely return

Nice Wetherspoon pub, very professional and polite staff. I recommend the pub. Just bar staff or particularly on the man who was on purpose, didn't take my orders even when I was in front of him.

Excellent food, low prices, I reccomend this place to everyone.

Popped in for a few drinks.. Nice venue 👌 loving the fact it's an old church, too.

Just had coffee very nice place

Good food, quick service. No problems

Came in for lunch & ordered ham eggs& chips which i had ordered previously. Ham was now just cheap packet type ham whereas previously it was good quality & eggs were well overdone. Would not recommend this dish. Waitress did offer to get more eggs. Wife ordered Chicken strips which she was happy with.with.

Terrible service from the team leader Dan . No customer service, consistently agitated and treats staff poorly . Ordered a beer on the app. He slammed it down and walked away in a strop . Only been here 3 times will never return because of him . He makes me feel uncomfortable. He needs to go

Great food and setting. My sister fell unwell today Thursday 2/10/23 all the staff bar none were fantastic in helping her A massive thank you to you all

Great 'Spoons' and a nice change from Peterborough Wetherspoons 😍 Nice atmosphere and orders brought very quickly. Very good place and highly recommended!!!

I used to work every day in Huntingdon in the 1980s and 1990s long before this Weatherspoons pub was there. I don't live in the town but have occasionally visited the town this year and called in to this pub for lunch several times. Generically it's as good as the other Wetherspoons that I have visited . However on.my last visit I was not impressed and felt uncomfortable in the place and hence I will not be returning .

Love the building and Tuesday night steak is lovely:)))

Have always had a good meal and service here, at a cheap price.

Food is good and affordable, but they should separate people who drink and eat don't really want to seat with my kids next to drunk lads.

Probably best pub in the town, and one of the best Spoons I have been to.
