We called in for lunch and had the southern fried chicken with chipotle mayo wrap. Definitely not chipotle mayo. More like peri peri and way too much on the wrap. The place itself had a good lunchtime vibe but is tired and drab. The toilets were awful. We travel a lot and have used numerous wetherspoons and this is one we would not return to. The staff however were friendly and pleasant and as we ordered from the app the waiting time for our food and drinks was good.

My wife and I, with friends came to Cheltenham for the first time and stopped at the Premier Inn. For breakfast we all agreed on a Wetherspoons. Yhere were 2 but this was the closest. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The food is what you would expect at Wetherspoons. The only criticism is the toilets absolutely stank of urine, both male and females.

Its a Spoons. The food is cheap and cheerful but nothing to write home about. Something may come out slightly too cold or piping hot and totally depends on the day. You can order food and drinks to your table very easily but dont expect good service because the servers are usually so ridiculously busy they dont have time to talk to you beyond a polite hello before they have to dash off again. The app also means theres not really "table service" in the traditional meaning. The atmosphere depends on the day but theres no music and a lot of the time youre looking at a pub full of the older generation or full of students. Not bad, not great, does what it says on the tin.

Its a Wetherspoons so we all know what to expect. The beer is cheapish, but slowley creeping up in price for the better brews. Service at the bar was quick and friendly. It suffers the usual problem of tables not being cleared when customers leave. But otherwise its OK.

Very disappointing visit. No clean tables, ended up clearing and wiping our own. Very short staffed, when we finally got served at the bar I was told that I couldn’t have the vegetarian sausages and mash as they had run out of gravy. There was a 40 minute wait for food, during that time I was told that one of the toppings for my jacket potato had run out. As I am vegetarian there was no other option for me so I had to have just one topping, despite paying for two. When the meals finally arrived, my daughter had sausages and about 70% peas (obviously to fill the plate) and a tiny clump of hard mash that looked like it had been scraped off the bottom of the pan. There was also no gravy. I appreciate that this is ‘cheap’ pub food but there needs to be some standards. My daughters mash was inedible. It was really disappointing and we will certainly never return to that Wetherspoon again, there weee no staff around to speak to, just one waiter serving a lot of tables.

Yet another Wetherspoons visited, number #106. This time the Bank House in Cheltenham. A large three floor Wetherspoons pub (toilets are in the basement), with a bar on each floor, situated in the heart of Cheltenham. Thankfully this branch was saved from the chop, in the spate of closures that were announced last year. (Unfortunately Spoons still do not fully grasp that busy areas require more than one pub!) Ordered the Vegetarian Breakfast and a pint of Green Jack Lurcher stout (it was 11:50am!). Drinks service was a little slow, arriving around 10 minutes after order was placed. Food arrived after around 20 minutes. No issues with it when it did arrive. Recommended if youvl are out and about in Cheltenham.

Was in a rush so had a quick tea there! Mistake! Straight burger was like cardboard, the bun slightly toasted bacon and cheese was all tasteless - ketchup was like looking for the holy grail - many tables sticky - floor was dirty. Walked down flights of stairs to eventually get to the toilet after food - the toilets reeked of urine which made me wretch - they hadn’t been cleaned properly for a looooooong time. All in all - put me off Wetherspoons for life!!

The food was seriously overcooked and tasted like cardboard. I had the burger. The tables were sticky we gave up in the end looking for a clean table and wiped the table we chose ourselves with wet wipes that we happened to have - phew! Went to the toilet afterwards - the toilets stank of urine making me wretch they were so disgusting! 🤮 I don’t have high expectations but the food and experience as a whole was well below par. The place was extremely dirty and there’s no excuse for that. I be going to a Wetherspoons again that’s for sure.

One of the better Wetherspoons located right in the centre of Cheltenham offers great service from very helpful, friendly and efficient staff. The food and service were great. Unfortunately, both the toilets smelled awful, and the disabled toilet floor was flooded and did not smell neutral. Maybe once in a while use of disinfectant might be an idea!

I don't like doing bad reviews, but beyond delivering our drinks to the table in a timely fashion, not much went well. It took a while for food to come out... Burgers were dry, chips overcooked and luke warm, halloumi fries fried to within a minute of being charcoal, children's pizza barely cooked. Pigs in blankets were the best food on the table, but even 2 of them looked and felt like lumps of coal. When we complained about some, there was an excuse about "old oil", I dont cook often but if what I produced looked like that it wouldn't leave the kitchen and I dare say my 5 year old could have done a better job.

Food was shocking. We waited nearly an hour then it came and most dishes were completely over cooked. Sauces were missing and ingredients on burgers etc. These were supposed to be halloumi fries. We were told it’s because the oil was old and it takes an hour to change over. Not sure how that was our issue and why the food served was so poor. It should never have been bought out in that state. How it was allowed I will never know.

Just an average Wetherspoons. It's fine. The food and drinks are decently priced and taste fine. Decent vegetarian options. The service is quick, and I'd recommend using the app for easier ordering. The place gets very busy, especially on weekends and evenings. The bathrooms are downstairs. The women's are generally ok.

My partner and I popped in for a swift half at The Bank House, but decided to order some food. Whilst we were initially pleased with the range of ales available, the same cannot be said for the food. We ordered baked potatoes with tuna and mayo filling. The food arrived, the potato was dry, and there was no mayonaise in it. Neither was there any butter, nor dressing on the salad. It was an unpleasant experience to say the least. I am pleased that the Bank House is still a Wetherspoons pub, but they really need to up their game on the food side of things. It feels like the place is just ticking over at the moment, no real effort is being made .

I like a Wetherspoons, I really do. Their business model is excellent but this one really lets the side down. We ordered electronically, most do now. Our drinks, ordered with a meal, arrived promptly. The meal was brought to us almost 1 hour later. They were busy, but they didn't seem busy with diners, just drinkers. The food was decidedly average. We won't be coming here again.

Long story short she got to Gloucester Royal accompanied by her friend. As we waited for the Ambulance she started to get cold - I jogged up to The Bank House and thankfully Coral, when I asked at the bar, went straight into action and gave me the warmest coat she could find.
