The Berkeley Jd Wetherspoon in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Rude staff, cold food, warm drinks, terrible experience and terrible service

mistakenly went here on an empty stomach which didn’t end too well for me. luckily the manager and one of the other members of staff were so lovely and helpful, one of them stayed with me and gave me water, and went to find my bf. they were so kind and gentle and helped us book an uber and got me out safely and I am so immensely grateful for them. I’m so sorry I can’t remember either of your names, but Tim Martin if you’re reading this give them a raise because they went above and beyond to help me

A better than average Wetherspoon pub, oddly quiet on a Sunday afternoon, but it is summer holiday for students. The ascent to the bogs isn't as challenging as at other pubs of that chain, and there's a barrage of urinals ready for freshers' week.

Quick service, lots of tables and space, great prices. I will definitely come here again.

Visited early on a weekday evening when there was no more than 5 other groups in the pub yet we had to go and chase our drinks order up after waiting over 15 minutes, very limited menu in this branch too so wouldn’t bother again.

Food is reasonably fine, but the pub does look a bit drab unfortunately.

Food came quickly and was very tasty

Personal favourite Bristol Spoons.

Visited whilst waiting for a bus. Only had drinks.but nevertheless a good atmosphere

Typical Wetherspoons. Very loud, poor food, sticky and cheap drinks. Many students. You get what you pay for.

A good place to relax and catch fun. Needs improvement in organisation.

Love this spoons staff were helpful and friendly enjoyed the drink and food

Excellent brunch deal which was needed to tackle all the hills!

Great food and good location. As always, great value for money

Good pub reasonably priced Beer 🍻

Food ok for price. Service was was quick although my friend said her burger and chips were not very warm. I had chicken bacon salad, but it was rather bland so could not recommend. Chips were a generous portion and very tasty. Other friends had chicken and spicy rice and said it was very nice. Very noisy as popular on a Saturday night

Nice enough. Could do with a little freshen up and the beers could have been served in the correct glasses.

Affable staff, clean and tidy. Good spoons

Not one of their best, barperson not the happiest. I asked to try a beer as no GK Ipa and you would have thought I was asking for free food . Should have gone to the WG Grace instead!

There is always a slow que here, beer is good though nice location

Hi there, great drinks, great atmos

You can't go wrong with Wetherspoons especially in Clifton as prices in other places are much higher. Easy to order, just download app and order at the table.

Nipped in for a quick coffee after walking around the city for an hour or two… Expected nothing more than a run of the mill Wetherspoons to be honest. We were quite right. All the coffee you can drink for less than the cost of a slice of toast. Although, it’s almost impossible to drink to excess without the mother of all caffeine-induced headaches striking home like an Exocet missile looking for trouble. Still, we had a couple of cups and then headed off looking for all things touristy. Walked over some bridge or other, as you do. The pub was perfectly OK to visit and enjoy a drink and a rest. The food is no doubt burgers, curries, steak, etc. Didn’t eat any, can’t comment.

Quick and friendly service with fairly decent food.

Student heavy spoons. Sticky tables and the food isn't too great. However it's a spoons 😂

Very busy , popped in for a drink very reasonable. Full of students.

Popped in here for a couple of beers in the way to clifton village wasn't busy as we arrived after lunch good beers especially guest ales which are reasonably priced compared to other pubs

Friendly atmosphere, good service But worst strawberry daiquiri I've ever experienced 🤮 apparently comes in a can

Great atmosphere and friendly staff and great food.

Unbeliveable@ double vodka blackcurrant and soda, 6.70, in weatherspoons park street bristol, what a joke! In tne brunel wine bar clifton (Matts Bar, 5.40 same drink!! goto clifton wine bar fab entertainment! Matt very welcoming!!! Xx

The food arrived luke warm after 30 minutes. But without our drinks. Had to get a refund for the dinks after waiting 50 minutes as had to leave. Best order at bar and not app. At least you’re get you’re drink that way.

Place is always so busy, very exciting but you have to queue for so long to get a drink. I love the atmosphere as a student, definitely more of a bar than a pub round the front, slightly more usual seating round the back. Food at spoons is always good.

It’s a standard spoons, in a student area so get very busy, especially in Wednesdays and weekends.

23/2/24 Friday evening meal & beer I had just finished a long wander round town including the docks and Clifton Suspension Bridge. It was mizzling down and I needed somewhere warm for a bite to eat and a beer before heading back for London by coach. I looked up TA to find this on the way back to the coach station. I arrived at 18:50 to find a busy big pub extending far to the back. There was a mixed crowd but mostly students at the back under the Whispering Gallery Multicoloured Dome. A table for two was free which I took. I found the WiFi, opened the app and ordered a porter beer with all day brunch. The food arrived in good time at 19:08 and was up to the usual good standards at a good price on the propriety blue patterned plate. The three veggie sausages were fine. The beer never came (usually it is first) so I had to remind a manager that I was still expecting it, pointing to my app. It arrived shortly after. It was busy and I can understand the error. It did not seem like a porter though. I finished the meal by 19:40 and headed off to the Coach Station via a bar the far side. On the way out I admired the lighting disc theme. Luckily the rain has stopped.

Nice reasonable pub, very central and vibrant venue.

Foid advantage, so is the price too busy and noisy for ne

Wetherspoon branch visited #113. Decided to visit this branch whilst on a day trip to Bristol. A branch in the Clifton area of the City. Was busy upon arrival. Found a table at the back of the pub, however no 4G/5G signal on EE at all. The Cloud WiFi would not let me sign in. Had to find another table, as ordering at the bar would have resulted in anotuer hunt for a table. This is a other branch that does the 'Top Plates, Low Rates' offer. However the Pizza offer is advertised as £9.86 on the advertisements but is £10.93 on the app. This needs amending on either the app, or the advertising around the pub. The 'Top Plates, Low Rates' deals have also been creeping up in price since the offer was first launched. Savings on some items are now minimal - in particular for the 3oz American and Crunchy Chicken Burger, Pizzas and Vegetarian chicken options. However, I did order an All Day Brunch and Pint of Leffe. Was also a little unimpressed that the festival beers were not available to order via the app, when there were clearly some on the bar to purchase. Service was somewhat slow, with pint of Leffe arriving 11 minutes after being ordered. Food arriving nearly 20 minutes later. No issues with quality or temperature of food, when it arrived. Despite the small gripes, I do recommend visiting if you are in the area. As always, Spoons prices generally win again most other places.

went 2 days in a row and chunks if the sick in the bathroom from the previous night weren't completely cleaned up. its a spoons tho what do you expect

It's a spoons so you know what ya gonna get

We spent a substantial amount of hours here on Saturday, we were able to obtain a big table in the back. Service was the app was great, very very cheap drinks which is the main appeal. I know food from Wetherspoons is good feol previous visits. Our little corner was the best bit, good atmosphere and cute little booths. Location is excellent!

Great place to eat out very competitive prices too food is a very high quality well worth a visit, would recommend this place

Nice food generally pizza arrived burnt though changed it pronto!! Staff friendly! very busy!!! No Chicken Tikka😶

A good selection of beers, food ok, very busy. Nice interior. I like how a lot of their pubs are in buildings with a bit of history to them

The service here was so attentive

spoons is a classic, i love the rosa pitcher but really don’t get this if you’re planning to get hammered, it is SO diluted. 9.11£ and you won’t be drunk so only get this if you enjoy a sweet, sprite like drink, NOT to get drunk. also get the 2 for 15£ with a friend for this pitcher instead, 9.11£ is not worth it alone. strawberry tequila shots were interesting

Long wait time on food which was apologised for, but no recompense, basic service, and you get what you pay for.

Just be honest. Would you eat this pizza? I requested a new one which came out completely uncooked. The first pizza looked like it had been set alight, the second one looked like it had been cooked with a hairdryer, still had raw dough, the cheese was not melted. I wasn’t expecting wood fire cooked sourdough Michelin star pizza but I expected the food to at least be edible.

Another City....another "Spoons" !! A small frontage but amazingly it is huge inside. Nothing different....it does what it says on the tin. Good man behind the bar though ! Our first drink on a weekend break on our way to Clifton.

Food was decent and reasonably priced, the venue has a nice feel, but the table and floor were sticky and staff were capable but not especially friendly. Seems there were not enough staff to cover, despite the restaurant only being half full.

Great pub. Best place to go for breakfast. Cheap and tasty. Full breakfast and unlimited coffee for a fiver! Can't go wrong.

Decor real sad, needs a bit of an update. Full English breakfast is still a bargain, but I was cold and the server was pretty unfriendly.

I love this place, I often go there for a meal as it’s good size portion, good selection of food and drinks and very good prices. This is my favourite Wetherspoons in Bristol as it’s not far from river Avon and not too far to Clifton as after big meal and some nice drinks I like to explore Bristol. It has plenty tables and service is pretty quick. Also if you looking for drinks to go out this is good place to go as the drinks are in reasonable prices and all the nightclubs are just couple minutes walk away. Also there is plenty toilets so don’t really need to wait in long lines. It gets busy around festive times or student nights, but even then there is nice and chilled vibe.

Classic WP, not the best but always a good place

very rudely refused a refund for a drink then asked to leave, wouldn’t bother. Manager was awfully confronting and angry

Great location great value and good food Love coming here

I had a sad little burger with about 15 chips, which looked a bit ridiculous on the very large plate it was served on.

Usual whetherspoons, cheap drinks and plenty of seats, cheap drinks

Better than many Wetherspoon's. It has a good atmosphere and is a popular place to drink with good prices.

Two stars for affordable food and semi-decent service. However, tables are not clean. My food was lukewarm and not great in terms of taste (which is to be expected from English food). Give the food a burst of flavor by seasoning it (a little salt, pepper, garlic, etc.. can go a long way), and make better food combinations. Oh, and ensure the food is actually fully cooked.. it'd be great to *not* have food poisoning upon eating the food here. Bless x

Good beer, cocktails and overall nice atmosphere.

Cheap and cheerful you can not go wrong with spoons

I like this place, service is normally fast if it is not very busy. If it is busy, you may wait a long time for food or drink or to get a table clean. The food was fine, ready in 10-15 minutes, so it's not bad timing. Taste: well its bar food :) . The atmosphere is good, friendly. Wel I made just 1 photo :)

Very nice atmosphere. Polite and quick service. Very reasonable prices. Didn't try the food so can't comment.

Curse of the glass ceiling that stole her from my town :( chimney deals on soon.

Decent food and very good beer at sensible prices. A little scruffy and chilly though.

Great prices, good location close to University and Museum. Miners Benedict was lovely poached egg and black pudding breakfast, bottomless pot of coffee went down well. Staff were good.

Usually plenty of space (except Friday and Saturday nights). Many cozy corners to choose from with power plugs next to them. Awesome hot drink refills. Food mostly unhealthy, as always in Spoons - the biggest reason why I ever choose not to visit.

Called in for a pint and snack to celebrate my friends birthday, was not let down could have stayed longer but had to catch train.

Always lovely to visit Wetherspoon

As to be expected, a stunning building with some great features but still just an ordinary Wetherspoons. Nice staff and quick service in a convenient area.

Apparently it's not trivial to find breakfast on Sunday morning in Bristol. But this place was open quite early and had a free coffee refill policy. It took some time to get the food, something the waiter made me aware of, but it didn't take so long really. Overall, nice English Breakfast that could be ordered in a smaller portion.

Barely any cheese on the nachos. Really stingy. Worse wetherspoons for cheese.

Table service was quick. Friendly staff..maybe need more Menus available... fantastic location.

Great spoons. Unlike others, will more often than not have the food that you're after. Can't get much cheaper on drinks either.

Lovely atmosphere and quick service. Toilets were nice and clean

Muy buen pub. Se come a gusto sin sentirte mal por ir solo. Ambiente agradable y servicio muy rápido. Además tienen la aplicación para poder pedir desde la mesa. El pub tiene dos zonas, una para comer y otra para tomar algo. Muy recomendable

Quick and friendly service and convenient location - but the truth is the beer quality is pretty shocking. Well presented and clean however.

It's a Wetherspoons pub, fantastic prices for drinks and food is always decent for what you pay 😁

Big Spoons with good selection of drinks during their beer festival and a variety of seating options. Good location.

Amazing breakfast, nice view on british museum, price really affordable !

Great place for a bite to eat as the food is highly recommended. Lovely service and such a nice atmosphere

Really nice place for drinks. Just one thing I would say is when the football league is on the tv on it very lord and it is hard to speak to friends and family because it hard to hear them I would come here again but I would come when not so noise in the pub

Went in for coffee while shopping place was buzzing lovely coffee lovely price ❤️

Does what it says on the tin and in a great location

Good value place, can't beat a Spooner's

Had a good visit on Thursday and enjoyed meal , cod chips and peas plus Apple crumble with custard.

At the lower end of Wetherspoons normally good standards

Lovely establasment, the bar staff are exceptianally friendly and the food is delivered fast and is above your usual standard. Well recommended 👌.

Fran was the most fantastic woman ever! I was experiencing a horrible time with some other people but fran was amazing so I was OK the whole time and checking up on me. She is incredible. You better treat her amazing and promote here ASAP. I have never felt so safe and looked after in a pub. I could tell she really wanted and cared and thart made me feel amazing. I couldnt imagine anyone better to look after me. I can't thank her enough9

It's a Wetherspoons. You don't usually come for the good food or ambiance. It was a perfectly pleasant pub with good value coffee. The food isn't the bargain it used to be.

Nice pub until the students are back

The staff are lovely. Ryan wasespecially impressed me as I have a medical condition and he kept an eye on me while still working. Thanks to all the staff thanks for such a great team!

Extremely reasonable price. Lovely old building worth visiting

Standard Spoons, very quiet when I went in. Really clean and tidy though

It's a Wetherspoons. Better than some, with a central location, decent size and clean but no music or any stand out features. Good for a cheap pint or bite to eat after work etc. No direct parking but close to Berkeley Square.

Was In early had a pint of ipa. Should have asked to taste. Not good

I found this Wetherspoons one of the more interesting ones. It's on the bigger side, with several rooms of tables. Nicely finished off in my view. Most Wetherspoons have prints and photos of local figures and places, and there are arguably more in the Berkeley than most. Most of the walls have articles and photos. I found it fascinating. If that sort of thing interests you, it's definitely worth a visit. There is paid parking just around the corner in Berkeley Square. For me, the special thing about the Berkeley however, is the stained glass dome in the rear of the building. I love it. Stunning.

Unfortunately the security here allow the drunk locals to be aggressive and shout homophobic slurs without any consequence. Truly vile

Nice little wetherspoons. Very nice glass ceiling piece inside!

Lovely pub - nice friendly staff and good service!
