Soulless, dreadful place, staff r brilliant. 2 staff, 1 pouring 1 getting glasses washed , kitchen staff , 1 lady running her arse off, rather stay in. Weatherspoons, or weather not , your choice. I'll take 2nd thanks.

If you’re after a decent, cheap breakfast the bear In Melksham can be Recommended. Ample parking in Sainsbury’s car park around the back this is far from the stereotype Wetherspoons with the sticky carpet! It has a pleasant interior open from 8 am till midnight and serves a decent breakfast From 8 am till noon at a price which is hard to understand how they make a profit. Unlimited coffee is another big plus. Searching for a negative the only thing I could say was it could’ve been a little warmer but apart from that quite adequate meal.

The only wetherspoons pub in mellsham, and it has gone totally downhill.. To start with, my shoes practically stuck to the floor as i walked in.. customers waiting 10 minutes to be served at the bar even with staff stood right there doing nothing.. dirty signs on the bar saying they weren't taking cash.. I wasn't paying cash, but I dont understand why they weren't taking it. It's cash.. The "clean" glasses are not clean. Some have lip marks over them and are obviously not being washed properly.. when i asked for a clean glass, the look I got from the bar staff wasn't very pleasant.. I only wanted a clean glass without someone else's lips on it.. there was a fair amount of dirty glasses on the bar just sitting there being ignored, never mind the amount of fruit flies flying all over the place.. The staff clearly had a busy day because there were dirty tables filled with plates and glasses complete with menus literally stuck to the tables.. There was a huge pile of dirty plates on the floor just outside of the kitchen that a young lad was trying to scrape off, but wasn't really getting anywhere with it.. After seeing that and some of the food coming out of the kitchen, I decided I'd rather pass and not risk it.. The toilets were absolutely disgusting. You can smell them as you walk up the stairs before you even see them.. in the ladies, there was a faint smell, and the floor was very sticky.. one of the toilets I went into was a total mess with loads of loo roll all over the seat along with what I'm assuming was wee all over the floor.. the mirrors were dirty with marks all over them, the soap dispenser was practically empty, and the sink sides weren't clean.. Im sure these toilets won an award for being so clean, once upon a time.. The garden was a total mess.. dirty tables, most of which had half eaten plates of food on them, just left for the seagulls to come and eat.. one smashed a glass in the process of stealing some food that was still there when i left over an hour later.. You can see some of the tables are wobbly and made stable by using the spoons magazine or a menu.. I did speak to a young lad who was doing his best with all the mess and asked to borrow something to clean a chair and table with. He then insisted he came and did it for me.. after a little chat, he told me they were short staffed due to sickness or holidays.. I was there for just over 3 hours and saw 2 members of staff trying to work the floor and the bar between them.. at one point, another lady came in. When she served me, she told me she was only there to help out for a couple of hours, then she was off home regardless of the mess.. I've grown up and worked in hospitality since I was very young, and in my personal opinion, 3 basic things a pub needs to survive and stay open.. CLEAN glasses CLEAN toilets And more than 2 or 3 members of staff on at a time.. There was a time this pub was a lovely place to visit, the toilets included.. but not anymore. It's sad to see it..

Recently went for lunch and ordered the triple burger for £12. It arrived with no cheese or bacon so was taken away to be added. Came back with unmelted cheese and cold bacon on. When I asked I was told that's how it comes as it's precooked. Pretty poor standards for a TWELVE POUND BURGER. Was there for a weekday late lunch and the restaurant area was quiet but there was food on the floor and we had to clear our own table n ask for it to b wiped down. Was a very disappointing experience and wouldn't recommend.

Not sure I'd bother coming here again. I was at the bar around 5.30pm today, with two young bar staff on. Bearing in mind I was the only person at the bar, obviously the young man was busy with an online order, but the girl with the dyed hair was only moving glasses around, and evidently uninterested in serving me. I don't recall upsetting anyone previously while at the bar, so I was mystified as to why I might as well have been invisible at this point. Then a couple come to the bar after me and the bar girl serves them straight away. The barman serves me shortly afterwards, thankfully, albeit begrudgingly. Observing afterwards, more extremely poor service going on, don't know where the bargirl is hiding in her remaining minutes before ending her shift, but more customers left waiting for long periods at the bar while the lone barman has to deal with punters on his own. Bargirl reappears behind the bar shortly before end of shift, not to serve waiting customers, but to have a look at her phone and then fist bump her bar mate before walking out. Poor, poor, poor. If you don't want to work behind a bar, DON'T work behind a bar. There are people out there who would probably appreciate your job and do it ten times better than you. The Trowbridge reopening can't come fast enough. Two star rating is for the decor of the pub. NOT the service.

The garden looks okay, but will never know whether it's worth a visit since Wetherspoons policy seems to be no dogs anywhere on the premises, including gardens. That was pointed rather forcefully by a patron before we got being the gate. Pretty sure the dog's manners are better!!! To be fair, a few other patrons were surprised by the policy and supportive of dogs being allowed. I'm a beer drinker first, dog owner second... think Wetherspoons is missing a trick, and on this occasion £60 trade that's gone to the very obliging Kings Arms just down the road.

Love this pub. It's the best pub in Marlborough. The locals are friendly as are all the bar staff and you are immediately made to feel welcome. It's got a good selection of beers and if you're hungry the café in the courtyard is excellent for breakfast and lunch. I can't fault this pub.
