dads burger came out cold and went up to the bar less than 2 minutes later came out with a new one and that was even colder than the last!! the server tried to say they were freshly made then felt it herself took it back and put it all in microwave to heat up. felt ill since i ate there today and have been spewing since. the amount of dishes lying was a put off piling high, glasses were covered in marks too and food took a while to come . just a overall bad experience

Always welcoming staff, customer service is very good and the availability and range of drinks and menu items is vast. The only negative is that on occasion you find yourself on a table lacking condiments or menu etc. The staff will correct this if asked and this is no reason to slate this establishment. Chef, too much vinegar in the eggs benedict, kinda overpowering. This is a JD W and not Le Manoir😁

Pub is fine but the blond woman who served me has had a personality bypass and it's working just fine. I asked if she was having a good day. I won't tell you her reply. If you don't like your job little lady, then. ?? But don't take it out on people who pay your wages. Won't be back. 👎

Went into Wetherspoons in Kilmarnock today with my son for breakfast. My son has learning difficulties and I am trying to promote his independence and self esteem so I sent to the bar to order breakfast. He returned to the table a couple of moments later visibly upset. He told me the man behind the bar refused to serve him and told him he had too much to drink. My son was 100% sober. I went to the bar to confront the barman and got a muted apology, Wetherspoons need to train their employees properly as this is not only detrimental to vulnerable peoples self esteem but verges on discrimination. Needless to say myself, friends and family will not be back

JD Wetherspoon. The most tried and tested pub in Britain. We had stopped into Irvine for the day for leisure and found ourselves quite hungry so popped in here. Service was quick, my grandmother and I both had the fish and chips, tasted lovely but unfortunately we seemed to have a little food poisoning afterwards. The service was…alright, staff seemed to be quite busy and sort of put out, but things happen so this might have just have been a one off experience. We did tip which wasn’t really appreciated as much as we would have liked, not a lot of manners from the waiter who picked it up. A nice day out, and a nice pub, very dim in certain areas. 3 out of 5 as there is room for improvement.

(This review written from the perspective of a Canadian) The first Wetherspoons I fell in love with—maybe it was the company that brought me along, but there's a lot to love either way. This is where I found out about unlimited café beverages, from a self-serve machine (no waiting around to bug a waiter for a refill)—making this place, and pretty much any Spoons an instant winner. If you vape, there are plenty of tables that have easy access to a (quite) open outdoors area (it's a parking lot); this is really nice. I can always step out for a minute, and making distance isn't hard—neither is coming back in. The food is always very good—I've had some orders come missing items, but staff are always helpful, despite the restaurant almost always being busy. For food, the only area I'd like to see evolved on—some five-spice items (such as the Naga Chili Chicken Vindaloo, available at the Sir John Moore and the Crystal Palace) would be fantastic; for any fans of spiciness, it will knock your socks off—but it's not available at this location. The item rated one spice lower—the Beef Madras—is very manageable for me--that extra spice the Naga Vindaloo has is like an extra order of magnitude; it takes what one can manage confidently, and lays on nine more. Overwhelming, in the best way—I do wish it, or something similar were here. (if you're at a Wetherspoons where it's served, it's very good stuff—it will have you putting those free decaf mochas to use!) Costs are very reasonable, considering how pricey eating out in the UK can be (in my experience). I specify the costs as ranging from £1-£10, as it's true that that is all you will often have to spend—however, I was almost always enticed to spend more; everything I've had has been very, very good in terms of texture, taste, and value for money. If it's from Wetherspoons, the chances are that it's good—so if you're in the UK and you want what's nearly guaranteed to be a good meal, Wetherspoons is a safe bet. (For anyone who drinks—a wide variety of pints are priced very reasonably, here. I can't go into too much detail, as I don't drink—but a friend who does gave me the quick rundown.) Regarding washrooms/toilets: The bathrooms are on the main floor—and the word that comes to mind is "dignified". As a male, I appreciate that there are separating walls for all of the urinals—the only time I'm not pee shy to the point of having trouble is when I'm back in Canada, under the strong influence of cannabis. I have been to many places in the UK (and Canada) without walls separating the urinals—it's never fun. The toilets themselves are very confidential—very, very tall separators. Good for you guys—few places anywhere at all get it so right. I think the Wetherspoons at the Sir John Moore even goes so far as to have individual toilets, entirely walled-off from one-another, with a very tall door; I've literally never seen such good execution on the idea of a "dignified public restroom", or anything close. Both are winners. Love the location, love the food, love how I never feel like I'm a prisoner or live in a barn—it really is too bad I don't live in the country, let alone the area! Great restaurant.

My guest's food was uneditable, not fit for human consumption - the sirloin steak was a piece of cremated fat, the peppercorn sauce was cold and lumpy, the mashed potatoes had grown a skin of their own, the cold mushroom was soggy and the peas were cold. In the middle of ordering two antisocial staff just walked off for no apparent reason. The pig ignorant waitress slammed the potmess almost through the table when serving it. The food was not even fit for a dog, absolutely vile food being served at the Auld Brig, they are a disgrace to the Wetherspoon chain. I would give them a zero rating. I had to get a refund and we went somewhere else for dinner.

Came here for a wee treat for mother's day as we were having a day out. We ordered at the till, waited over 40 mins for our food the big rush was over at this point. Ordered a BBQ beef burger, kids pizza and fish and chips. The kids pizza plate was boiling hot would say it was hotter than the pizza it's self. The adults ones were like warm. We started to get our meal when taking the salad off my burger I noticed something shiny in it, upon closer look it was a strand of metal running through the actual burger patty. Husband went up to complain after they realized how big the peice of metal was we were offered a refund for the burger only even though no one else trusted eating theres. Would avoid at all cost would put me off visiting any of there sister branches as well

Excellent place for a quiet pre or post shop coffee, but food is highly variable with regards to quality! I thought that the big chains and Franchises dealt with this by way of training in the 80's! Food on this occasion was edible, but overcooked fried eggs and rubbery hash browns, really not my idea of a good breakfast content! Damned shame because I've had some excellent meals here previously!

We popped in for a bite of lunch, struggled to find a table, and even when we did, we had to clear a pile of dirty glasses and plates off it. Once we had ordered, the main courses came in around 10 - 15 minutes. The dessert (ice cream) wasn't forthcoming soon after, so after 15 minutes we asked when it was coming, to be told "the order is in the kitchen, they'll bring it out ". After waiting another 15 minutes, we went back to the bar to see where the ice cream was, and one of the staff went into the kitchen and brought it out. It was disappointing to wait 30 minutes for a plate of ice cream.

Breakfast here on 5/11/23. I had the large Scottish and my partner the Scottish. Waited over 20 minutes for them to arrive and when they did they were lukewarm with the beans and eggs conjealing and the square of butter totally melted, suggesting to me the breakfasts had sat some time before being brought to the table. Before starting to eat, my partner noticed neither of us had black pudding on our plates. I should have had 2 slices, my partner 1 slice. On approaching a member of staff to question our missing items I was told that there was no black pudding left! ( Great way to increase profits, not put an item on the plate and not tell the customer!). I was offered any other breakfast item as replacement and opted for link sausage. A short time later a staff member arrived at our table with 1 link sausage each for us. As I had been missing 2 slices of black pudding I would have expected 2 link sausages as replacement. Altogether not recommended as a breakfast venue. I have used Wetherspoons all over the UK and am a regular in the Pioneer in Prestwick and The Paddle Steamer in Largs. Todays experience falls well short of what I have come to expect of Wetherspoons.
