The Benjamin Satchwell in Warwick

Very poor service - waited over 30 mins for food. Asked an assistant if there was a problem with my order as customers who came after me had received & eaten their food. He went to the till to check records and said nothing had been ordered from my table number.funny that it was showing on my bank account as a pending transaction!!!! He went away to the kitchen & came back with a shrivelled plate of food which had been standing overlooked on the pass in the kitchen. No appology. Very disappointing visit to this pub.

Nice pub, very nice staff, very well hidden gem in Leamington Spa

I never complain before at a Wetherspoon. Today I ordered a curry and the onion bhajis/vegetable samosa as extra. Not only was the the bhajis nearly burnt but there was 1 instead of 2 .. I mentioned it but sadly the employee never returned too me .. This could had been easily sorted because in most Wetherspoons I been in they check on you and ask if everything OK.. But sadly they didn't..

Great place to get food or a drink at an amazing price. It is a British institution that everyone must give a try! A big fan :)

Great place for cheap beers in comfortable surroundings. Haven't tried the food.

Very poor management. Our breakfast was stone cold when complained and said we haven't got time for a new one to be cooked the management said we are unable to give a refund because you have started to eat it.... how on earth do you expect us to try im without eating it? He offered 2 free deserts.... what for breakfast..... oh ill have Apple crumble and custard please 😂 is this pub for real? For what it actually cost to make the 2 breakfast a refund of 2 breakfasts would not even show a dent in Mr weatherspoons wallet!!!! I am totally gobsmacked with the respnse! Will never go there again!

Busy for the January beer sales

As per other reviews, wouldn't recommend. You order food, it doesn't all arrive, you ask several staff for the remaining food and get ignored. When you complain to the manager, he refuses to give his name, and then gets all upset when I took his photo and bars me!! Only positive , if you like being treated badly, don't spend a lot going to Karen's diner, go to Benjamin Satchwells you get the same treatment for cheaper.

As many others have said, this establishment is a joke. If you don't mind not receiving food you have paid for, being ignored when you ask for the food to be brought to you by several members of staff, and then when asking management what their name is, being told you are not allowed to know my name.....this is the establishment for you to go to I guess the plus, it's cheaper than Karen's diner (the place where you pay for rude staff as part of the service) but with exactly the same outcome

Cheap drinks and deals on food. No music though.

My food was cold and after waiting for about five minutes it returned only slightly warmer, still not hot, not happy. Also, the garlic bread was a flour tortilla with an oil sprinkled on it. The venue is quite nice and the barman was friendly, but the food was sorely lacking.

Cheap and cheerful, but pretty good 'Spoons

Great pub for a few drinks on New Years Eve afternoon. Excellent service from staff.

You know What your getting at a Weatherspoons, simple food decent prices

Jacob was the best everyone else was nothing we love Jacob

For a spoons it was ace , great service and a nice space

Good value for money. Very warm and cosy. I do love going to Wetherspoon's. I usually go once a week

Omg if I could give No stars it would be this place is unfit for purpose! Staff ignorant and ignores you! Tables are filthy and greasy ! And the burgers we ordered the chicken was uncooked and dry ! I used the mens toilets here piss all on the floor by urinals! This place needs shutting down!

About the same as other weatherspoons , shame the tables aren't cleaned more often

Much better than Stratford upon Avon spoons. Don't think anyone who works there is over 25. Very bad service in Stratford spoons. Leamington much better Leamington spoons really gone down hill Staff don't seem to be able to say please and thank you. Very few of them. Much too young to be working in a pub. Been going on for a while. Disappointing

Far too busy. Difficult to get table

2 star for service...served by a grumpy barman..

Nice place cup tea in morning early opening at 8am

Great Piri Piri chicken waiting for the Christmas lights to be switched on!

Food terrible, specifically stated on ordering I did not want lemon and herb chicken. Guess what I got 🍋 and 🌿 chicken. Two pints Guinness lovely, 3rd pint from a different pump, awful. Guinness taken back and changed. The chicken meal, ugh, see picture! Won't be back in a hurry!

I had a quick drink 🍺 in this pub and moved on to the second one of the day in Warwick

It's a very good place for groups, and having drinks at great prices. It can get very busy on a Friday or Saturday night, and it's mostly popular with young university students.

Nice and clean, polite staff toilets nice and clean

We popped in for a quick bite to eat and drinks, it was exactly what you'd expect from a Wetherspoons on a Saturday night. It was pretty busy with only a table or 2 available, and a vibrant atmosphere with people talking. We both ate burgers and had a large soft drink, which cost less than £18. I recommend visiting this pub if you're in the area.

Usually love a wetherspoons breakfast, but the service here was absolutely terrible, which ruined our meal. Firstly, the drinks ordered with our breakfast never came out, they were just forgotten about. In the end after about 30 minutes the drinks were found just sitting on the bar. Secondly, the toast for our two breakfasts was not included with any butter. I informed a passing waiter about this, who did absolutely nothing and just forgot about it, so I then had to queue and speak with someone behind the bar just to try and get some butter for the toast. Rubbish experience

Wow, this place is very hard to find, the high street entrance is so tiny and unlike usual Wetherspoons. Inside though is very big compared to the door. Well worth a visit.

Table not cleaned but our food served on dirty table ,chips didn't stay hot for long management to blame if staff not looking after customers poor experience.

Mainly reviewing Guiness as is served like your drinking chemicals so think it's because pipes have been cleaned. Been there various times so try a pint first and if bad ask for other tap if bad.

Still one of my favourite Wetherspoons. Set in the lovely town of Leamington Spa. Pay it a visit, soon... very conscientious staff, always customer focused, great beer and safe environment.

I went in to start a night out it's always going to be a busy place, drinks are always well priced but I found one of the staff to be a little rude to a customer he didn't help himself but she escalated the situation extremely quickly all in all it's a solid starting point and I would and have been going there for years to start a night out

Did not wait long to get served. Food arrived in about 10-15 mins.

Probably the worst spoons I’ve been in staff are surly.got told we were rude for asking for some butter and a napkin I asked to speak to the manager she said she was the manager.coffee machines weren’t working at nine in the morning.will never set foot in the place again.

I was just passing through and I decided to have a cheap lunch with a few cheap drinks. I had a bbq burger 🍔 with a side of onion rings, they were so delicious!

Dan was great made us all feel welcome

Really not that great from past experience. Crowd seems to be either really old people or just rammed full of annoying students. Food is average but cheap (you get what you pay for). Pints were cheap too, honestly can't remember the last time I paid £2.50 ish for a pint other than 2003.

while in Leamington spa we went to this pub .good quick service .meals good and larger fine. no doombar, and tables a little dirty. but it is a spoons so you know what you are going to get.

Rather disappointed brought some friends as I am a member of Camera ordered a Abbott real ale and a cider they would not accept my Camera vouchers as they said the beer had already been discounted and we ordered the wrong cider

A good local pub.... What more could you want from this type of place :x

... but we are back to undercooked pizza again, even after a lengthy wait. It's a pity because recently their pizzas were excellent.

Not where I would usually choose to eat, but we were in a rush and this was the most convenient place. I have never been anywhere so sticky and filthy in my life! We had to take the cleaning spray and cloth and clean the table ourselves as noone working there seemed to be bothered. Food came quickly which was great and my steak was rare just like I asked. But there were no peas, mushrooms, onion rings, pepper corn sauce or tomato like advertised. We asked where these were and the guy said he would find out....he never came back! Staff were dropping and smashing plates and glasses all over the place which they seemed to think was hilarious, even though children were running riot through the debris. I am far from a snob, and I know people use Wetherspoons for their cheap drinks so they can get smashed before going clubbing, but after leaving here I felt like I needed a shower and a lie down in a quiet room. I won't make the mistake of going in there again

A very busy Saturday evening (weekend of the Food Festival) so it was hard to get a table for 8 of us as one might expect. However, we managed despite the crowd. Drinks good , as always, and priced really well. Food - hmm not great - I've always had great "Spoonies" food before but the burger I had was tiny and there was just a handfull of dry-ish chips. No garnish, salad etc. Real disappointment but other's mixed grill and steak looked nice. They are what they are and I won't put anyone off - maybe eat first then visit?

The pub and staff are great, but sometimes I get the feeling that people are catching the bus over from Coventry to spend the day in Leamington and don't get past this pub.

Started off our day in Leamington Spa with breakfast at The Benjamin Satchwell, before our three hour drive home. It's an undoubtedly lovely town and well worth a visit. Obviously, there's one of the ubiquitous Wetherspoons chain there, right in the heart of the place. It stands out like the sorest of sore thumbs as it tries desperately to blend in to it's surroundings while flogging cheap grub and pitchers of cocktails for pence. We staggered through the haze of smoke in the doorway emanating from the nicotine crazed folk loitering nearby clutching their drinks. We ordered a couple of traditional breakfasts and waited to gauge which item on the plate would be cold and how solid and dangerous the egg yolk would be. It was the bacon and the yolk was bouncy and pliable. Despite that, it was tasty enough and we were reasonably satisfied with our start to the day.

There was 10 of us having a drink and meal on Thursday. We ordered a cheese burger and chips. It came up burnt! We sent it back and they returned it with a replacement that was also burnt! I retuned it to the manager who was not in the slightest surprised or apologetic and asked if I would like it replaced. I told him it was disgraceful and said we would like it replaced with a ‘fresh’ burger and a refund. He said he could not do both. It was an absolute disgrace and he did not even apologize

Just popped in as half hour early for our Restaurant meal pint of lager carling and half lager very busy and four guys shouting at each other moved table then left 😑

New street station weather spoons is my favourite weatherspoon to go to as it's new, brighter, cleaner and a great atmosphere.

Very slow service I know they're busy but 45 minutes for food is ridiculous!

Nice food and staff helpful and polite

Bar staff don't have a clue, avoid.

My go to place on weekend for a breakfast and coffee. Quite crowded in the evenings with long wait at the bar but I guess that's normal

Typical hit and miss weatherspoons food but the staff were excellent and very friendly and helpful

Visiting friends and fancy for a pint of Guinness enjoyed it.

Popped in for breakfast during our stay in Leaminton Spa yesterday. Food was ok but lukewarm. The table was still sticky from previous diners. We didn't go back for breakfast today.

The mixed grill was awful. Everything burnt except the sausage. It’s cheap but not even worth the money.

A standard Wetherspoons. Despite it being in posh Leamington, it's still full of people who don't wash their hands.

Marina is has incredible customer service skills. She knows how to engage with a customer while maintaining a professional working environment and providing the best service possible. She is amazing

The Wetherspoon in Leamington is a beautiful sight that also poses a fine pun to purchase ales and even soft drinks. The atmosphere was great as there was a real homey feel to the whole establishment. Also service was great due to how fast the table service was, and QR code menus are also helpful My only eh is the food, which for the prices really isn’t that good honestly, but it’s okay cause it’s primarily for the drinks, which also were great. All in all though, it was a great experience nonetheless and a pretty decent price. I’d recommend

Typical Wetherspoon's. for a Friday night it was well staffed with great service. I could actually talk to a friend opposite me without shouting

Really good quality food and drink and great service Good

I can honestly say my experience at the Benjamin satchwell was great except for one minor detail. Two breakfasts and NO REPEAT NO BROWN SAUCE VERY STRANGE.

Good selection of beers and professional staff

Amazing place to hang out with your friends. Only issue which is actually good for the owners is it is too crowded always... Rest everything is fine.

A good, atmospheric Spoons. Has all of the usual facilities. A great place for a budget scoff.

Always a safe bet for a snack and reasonably priced drinks.

Scampi was excellent as was the J20, staff were pleasant and the place was clean and tidy

Traditionally good, but it was disappointing tonight that I was asked for ID and asked to open my backpack for checking, but someone who also looked young after me was simply let in without being checked…

The bouncers where really nice especially flip and Idris

Poor experience. Food wasn't great and was below expectations for a J D Wetherspoons. Carpets throughout, especially around the tables, look like they needed a good hoover. The only positive was the quick service after ordering via the app. Will not be returning.

Service is rubbish but the food is excellent. We had our dinner and nobody came to take our empty plates. The atmosphere is 3 stars because toilets are located not upstairs or half a mile away from the tables. If you use an online application for ordering the food approximately waiting time is 20 mins however the app says 6 mins waiting time.

As usual with Spoons pubs no disappoints at all!

I had a drink in here earlier which was good and as I would expect. Whilst I was there there was a minor disagreement between the manageress and a customer which I felt she dealt with excellently, the chef then personally bought out the revised (not necessarily improved) dish and again dealt with the customer excellently, it’s very refreshing to see a team working together and backing each other up in what can be a challenging environment. Well done 👍

We just went in for drinks very relaxing Clean as well.

Everything you’d expect from Wetherspoons. Good, quick, reasonably priced food and drink. Staff were friendly.

First time here on a Friday night for food and it was brilliant. Food was fab, service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere was buzzing. Defo one of the best Wetherspoons I've been to. A nice Chicken dish and a drink for under £13! Cracking.

Very good and tasty food. Usually, i dont like food from there, but this time, it was delicious and well done. Friendly staff.

Got kicked out for ‘sniffing in the toilet’. I was not sniffing I went for a wee but ok. Go to the neighbourhood instead they don’t wrongfully accuse you of things.

Can't complain get what you pay for

A typical Wetherspoon pub so you know what to expect. As always a good selection of drinks available, very busy on a Saturday night. Clean and tidy. Will try again on a weekday afternoon as I’m sure it would get rated higher.

Okay. I'm not sure what is expected from a whetherspoons. Toilets overflowing and are blocked. Every surface feels a bit sticky. Full of lots of drunk people in the evenings and at weekends.

Went to this Weatherspoons on the way to a party Service was good and there was a good atmosphere Later that night, I called for one last drink. Very busy, service not quite as fast but the bar was full Didn't have food, so I can't comment Worth a visit though for sure

Good breakfast. Didn't like the sausage but that was my personal taste not reflective of the quality of the breakfast

Nice pub .. Staff very friendly and helpful.. Tables aren't cleaned very quickly. And if you order on the app for drinks it's a very slow service.. But the food is good ..

Mix race door man at spoons was the best security I have came across need more people like him in this world he is so funny and understanding and knows how to do his job properly I give this guy 10000% credit best door man ever

Lovely food with my family great service had such a lovely day. The service was great there was a lady clearing my tables jahnayqua Clifford

Staying several nights on holiday at the Regent Hotel my wife and I regularly ate here. The meals arrive quickly, the service is friendly and it’s value for money. ALL the staff work very hard and long hours to achieve this and deserve recognition. Thank you guys.

Great breakfast with travelling friends

this spoons is super !!! megan has been our server a few times - she’s brilliant at her job and also just lovely! thank you megan for being so helpful :)

Went in to eat on me and my partner's traditional Saturday eat out day. Asked for a Pasta Alfredo and a hamburger. Hamburger was good as always, but the pasta alfredo was missing some ingredients (the tomato and the spinach) and of very small portion. Asked to talk to someone to mention the missing ingredients was then informed they have no control over it as it comes packaged as a "microwave ready meal" from the main house.... That is disappointing. I paid the same for as any other plate in terms of price and was served a microwaved meal.... in a pub... Disappointing and disgusting....

Asked for pasta Alfredo and a tiny dosr came. No tomato and no spinach even though the description mentioned them. Spoke to the manager who said the pasta is a microwave ready meal. No mention of this on the menu and of course the price is the same as other meals. Paid £9 for a microwaved meal.

i ❤️ spoons but more importantly megan was a brilliant server and is lovely !

Really dark and dingy in there take your ages to a accustomised to the lighting

It is a pity that the refurbishment of a few years ago did not help to get and keep the restaurant smart. As for the service, as always, it is acceptable without being over the top. The quality of the food is what one would expect considering the tariff. It is a convenient place to eat without expecting excellence.

The staff were at the time of my visit very welcoming and are truly the biggest asset to this venue.

Pub became an impromptu wake after a funeral. We personally didn't have food, but I believe others did order a meal later. Bar staff were friendly and helpful, given they were under pressure. And really could have done with at least 1 more person behind the bar. Not the best circumstances, but we had a pleasant teatime.

Popped in for breakfast Sunday morning as we we staying in Leamington for the weekend. Breakfast arrived and it was cold. I asked for it just to be microwaved..I'd have been happy with that but within minutes a whole other breakfast arrived...also cold. What a,waste of food!
