Was cheap,Abbot was £1.99 a pint, food was good, I only had chips because I wasn't feeling great. Food service and barstaff were great. The toilets were good, but I picked up very strange vibes from the hallway outside the toilets. Not anybodies fault but was very weird. Nice pub tho.

Shockingly bad pub. Miserable service from the young barman followed by a bunch of staff gathered by the bar swearing and chatting rather than working or cleaning / clearing. There were obviously two members of staff that were about to start their shift, or had just finished, that were chatting to the ones supposed to be working. Bad language, laughing and joking amongst themselves with no thought of the customers or actually clearing glasses and cleaning the filthy tables. Never to return.

Been a long time since i was last in the bell. In no hurry to go back. Atmosphere was only ok becase of the people i was with. Food was very poor and almost got sent back, but didnt want the hastle. Its a spoons so wasnt expecting the world but when you order a cheese burger online and it gives you the option to add or remove stuff it would be good if they actually removed the things you didnt want and gave you the parts that you included in the order. Other people in the group had food that was cold so not just me. We all ordered sepperately but at the same time. It would have been nice if the orders came at roughly the same time rather than 15 mins apart.

It's a Wetherspoons. What else can you say? Food and drink range is extensive, and good value, and the place is large and sprawling, so plenty of room to choose an area wh ich suits. No convenient free parking nearby, so make sure you pay in the local car parks as the wardens are ever vigilant!

Popped in here on a quiet Tuesday evening with some colleagues for a drink, one member of staff is probably one of the worst people I’ve met working in customer service. We were laughing, literally just laughing and she threatening to throw us out. I hate to see what she’s like on a busy night on a weekend!! Needless to say we just left and went elsewhere!!

Located in the one way system in Amesbury town centre. It is an older building, with seating outside at the front and in a courtyard and the garden. Everything outside was clean and tidy. Inside, there is plenty of seating, with the typical small areas with 4 to 6 seating tables. There is a self-serve hot drink station. The bar is full of drink options. The team are all friendly and helpful. Everything is clean and tidy inside. A little dark in some areas, but there are other places to sit. Food is good and the choice aligns to any Wetherspoon's.

Impressed by the service, how fast our foods arrived when we ordered. It was extraordinary that the waiter didn't come to our table. We had to order food at their bar area and pay for it at the same time as well. It was cool. The food was extremely good and fresh. Also, they had a good affordable and reasonable price.

Watched bar staff (manager?) turn off the Wetherspoon App capability so all people were made to go up to the bar for all orders? Apparently, this was due to shortage of staff??

We've been here loads of times before and it was fine but today it was DREADFUL. Ordered the half chicken and it arrived looking like roadkill. Hardly recognisable as chicken and floating in a sloppy gunge-like sauce with a strong lemon tang which was overpowering. Sent it back and the second one was no better. The second offering was barely a chicken portion and clearly NOT half a chicken as it didn't even have a leg portion attached! Same slimy sauce and one of the staff informed us earlier that 'that's how they come in the bag...' so clearly NOT cooked to order at all. We've had chicken there before and it was nothing like this. It's always been properly cooked before, all golden and a proper half chicken; not a slimy 'portion' that looks like roadkill. Very poor standard and we won't be returning.

Visited today 2/8 at approx 11.30 am , intended to order via app but phone low on power . After a few minutes of standing at bar waiting to order a member of staff who was previously cleaning tables , her attitude & communication was awfull unfriendly and giving a impression she couldn’t be bothered , in the end I told her not to bother and walked out & had a breakfast elsewhere , I a regular eat at my local Wetherspoons outlet at Salisbury at where I’ve never been served with such unprofessional manner .

Not a great visit. Not enough staff, tables not cleared for over an hour and half. When our table was served with drinks the plates etc were only removed AFTER I asked and then only to the table next to us? People coming in left as there were no clean tables. A group of 9 Asian tourists had to move and clear tables to sit together. Something needs to be done. I lived here and return often throughout the year so disappointed 😞

Bit disappointed, was ordering three pints, one non-alcoholic for my friend that’s pregnant, I got it okayed at the bar, I told the bartender she was pregnant and it was still okay. We go back to the table and bartender comes over five minutes later and takes the alcohol pint away due to no ID. Was not hard to see, my friend is pregnant, her belly is quite big😂. Got refunded with a 1.75 Pepsi. If you cannot serve alcohol free cider without ID then don’t say it’s fine at the bar but then proceed to take it away. However, southern fried chicken strips… beautiful as always. I don’t know what’s going on with the chips

Food, and , and the ale and cider, was very good and excellent value for the price, with a good selection. The Bramley apple crumble was particularly tasty. Other patrons were exuberant but not a bother. Comfortable with clean bathrooms. We'd go again, gladly.

Smaller than many Wetherspoon pubs..plenty of room outside. Can get very busy at popular times. Being in Amesbury it's more of a local than tourist. The Army bases are near so can get a bit rowdy when the lads are enjoying themselves. One problem i find is the shouting talk, some dont realise the volume of their speech and therefore can, sometimes, be a bit over the top. If one starts loud, others follow which can be offputting to other less emotional in conversation. But generally worth a visit. I given 3 for food..1..the prices have shot up. 2. The plates are never hot..this stands for all Wetherspoons. I have mentioned it before, but nothings changed for years. Breakfast is fairly vulnerable to luke warm plates and things can cook down fairly quickly.

A pretty good standard for how a weather spoons should be. Dropped by for a long afternoon and was pleasantly happy with the experience, the food was very much the standard at what you get at a spoons, but the venue itself and the staff manning it was very good. Thankfully it was a sunny day so we could hang out in the decently sized garden area (there are 2).

Disgusting attitude and such a shame that Wetherspoons have taken beautiful buildings and turned into such a place where they wont let you order a drink to take to the garden because you have a dog. The same dog is allowed with you whilst dining at the Michelin star pub the Red Lion just 5minutes away. Needless to say I will never frequent a wetherspoon establishment again and will certainly persuade family and friends likewise

Called ahead in the morning to book a table for 7 people for lunch that day. On arrival no table had been reserved and we were offered a table outside (one of our party was 98 years old and it's October!). After waiting around we eventually got 2 tables. Ordered food and drinks, when the drinks came out the chap serving us refused to give my son his bottle of Cider as he had no ID. Firstly I purchased it, my son is 18 and the person serving us does not seem to fully understand the statutes of law for licensed premises. A thoroughly disappointing lunch trip in a very disorganized venue - worst wetherspoons I've ever been to.

Went on a Saturday night for food so was busy but got a table. Ordered a children's meal and a panini and chips both came out hot and tasty. Not enough chips on the adult meal imo. Also the staff didn't know the kids menu included a drink or the meal I chose did too, so had to advise as was going to be charged. Apart from that , nice place for dinner.

Went here for a quick lunch on a Saturday and wasn’t impressed. The chairs were all stained with (hopefully just) old beer and drinks. One of the gents toilets was covered in pee, another had dried vomit on the walls. The staff were friendly and helpful though. The pièce de résistance however was the cremated pizza I received for my son. Just gonna leave a picture of that here…

A good spacious pub with a large outdoor seating area. The beer as usual is great value with a range of main brands and guest real ales. The food was fair, nicely cooked, simple and moderate portion sizes for the money. Unlike rivals, there were no deals on between 12:00 and 14:00, but still it was a good service and enjoyable put stop. Atmosphere is a little dark and dingy inside with a clear number of bar prop customers who were a little loud at times, overall a good pub I would visit again, but I feel there are other venues competing hard in this arena and nudging ahead on the feel especially inside.

We have spent many times in this restaurant and have spend a lot of money over the years but my last visit here has put me off ever returning. I walked in with my partner and we had our 2 well behaved dogs, we went into the beer garden which is located at the side of the pub. My partner went in and brought 2 cokes and had asked if they had any water for the dogs to which they told us they are not welcome here and we had to leave. By this point my partner had already brought the drinks. The lady on shift that day had came storming out saying no dogs allowed here and requested we left, after saying we had just brought drinks and needed to drink them she had refused us to drink them, so I said well you'll need to give a refund to which she also refused and offer us take away coffee cups. There was no signs at all stating that no dogs were allowed on site (in garden) and believe me I looked everywhere! Even pointed out that we had been in many of times and even seen dogs inside the building up at the bar. So she handed us a take away cup and stood there watching to make sure we didn't drink at the table and waited till we had left. Absolutely no customer service that day and the rudeness of the staff and made us feel like that experience has put us off ever returning. Shame on your staff especially the manager!

Having quite drink in side courtyard (no smoking area) when a rude man came out of pub and was smoking, my husband and I said to him politely you are not allowed to smoke here. He was ignorant and called my husband some nasty names, then he walked back into the pub, we told member of staff and all he did was laugh and say he was a regular. This upset us both so my husband spoke to the manager, the manager said he spoke to the drunk in question, and the manager apologised on the man's behalf and the behalf of witherspoon. All I can say to that was big deal, the man was clearly breaking the law he should have been asked to leave, but clearly you have to be drunk and a regular to be treated with respect in a witherspoon public house!! Discussed!!!
