The Central Hotel - JD Wetherspoon in Flintshire

Warm and cosy, and with the usual Weatherspoons respect for the local boudoir of the place. A great breakfast (reliably good) and excellent coffee machine, all for a modest price. What's not to like?

Love wheatherspoons good value for money and pleasant staff

The team at weatherspoons are friendly fun and helpful thanks x

Really nice Spoons conveniently located near the upper Shotton train station. Good service from a switched on barman. £3.45 for a large Pinot Grigio. Bargain 🤑. Thank you.

In Chester we did not stay at the Central Hotel but we spent a lot of time at Wetherspoon. We love their menu. There’s a wide choice of beer. Tea/coffee is come with refills. The staff, although very busy, are so caring and helpful. They’re well-trained and it shows.

Very friendly staff and a great tasty meal

I ordered a steak rare, and it came out medium-well, medium at best. Everything else was amazing, I think they just need to improve cooking capabilities when it comes to steak

I go here from time to time, and I’d say I’m pretty lucky to live so close to one of these. The food’s pretty good, but the service is slightly slow, but it’s probably because the place can get pretty crowded from time to time. The decoration is nice and the atmosphere is welcoming. I would recommend this branch if you live locally. :)

Every time I go there they have no Worthingtons bitter that place has gone worse

Probably the worst mix grill I've ever tasted in my whole life cheap meat all paper thin and over cooked please for god sake never eat at this place its terrible will never visit ever again it's bad when the Pepsi max is the best tasting thing on your menu you need better chef and better quality meat

Wow how much? 2.60£ for guiness bargain. Service was nice too 😁

My friend and I go on a Friday lunch and have small fish chips mushy peas and a coffee .The fish is tender and the batter is thin and crispy just how I like it

Service slow. Generally good place and good selection of ales.

First time at this spoons and the staff were fabulous with us. We ordered our meal only to be told there were none left. Order something else, again none left. They went on to tell us, how sorry they were and apologised for being low in stock due to a break in. They did a fabulous job with minimal stock. Beer, was in good condition 💯 well done for managing a bad situation.

Had breakfast here, family meet up to have a chat and a bit of food. Meal was excellent, buy a coffee or tea and its unlimited, so if you like alot of tea or coffee then happy days.

fake offers, when I get to order they said sorry we can’t use this offer anymore!

Got to be the cheapest spoons in the UK, excellent breakfast in the morning, cracking pints of Guinness in the evening all for very little monies, service with a smile lovely staff

Good value. Decor needs updating very tired. But its a weatherspoons so thats a plus

“Never have I ever been told by the bar staff, after asking for a cloth to wipe a table, that she didn’t have one and would get one in a minute In a very condescending manner I will add. All because she was to busy chatting up the doorman. I just had to walk out. Won’t be going again.”

Typical spoons, nice fodder and cheap beer.

Excellent wetherspoons next to Shotton Station. Very good service and the beer(shipyards) was spot on.

Great breakfast at a good price.

I hate to say it about Weatherspoons, but the food value is excellent, well cooked every time I visit

Same as any other branch of wetherspoons. Family friendly, cheap alcohol and the food is okay.

Love it , food , atmosphere , friendly people and service 🥰🥰🥰

Nice place to go, staff friendly and food looked good. I will be going back. After going back again the food came out in less than five minutes but was not hot, makes me.think pre cook for speed. Still the same food not hot.

It's a spoons good food and super inexpensive

It's a nice place to have a meal with your family and friends

Good place for a nice pint and some decent food.

Food is typically Wetherspoons food. Quick and cheap. The central on the other hand seem dirty and dark. Glasses and plates everywhere. Lack of cleaning tables was an off putting experience. If the prices were not so good and this being halfway between 2 mates then I wouldn't use it.

Great value for money food with cheap drinks.

Food is a little poor even for weatherspoons but it's also like wetherspoons really cheap and filling. Staff was lovely Patrons questionable characters

Good beer, good food. What else do you need?

A decent Wetherspoons, so you can't go too wrong. Only marred slightly by the fact there didn't seem to be enough people clearing tables and had to wipe our own, plus when we'd finished eating our plates were cleared away without even asking if we'd finished, or if everything was ok - basic stuff really.

The 3 times I have been into a Weatherspoons I have always been pleasantly surprised. Staff friendly and helpful. Prices great. Food basic but warm and good selection.

Great place very cheap beverages. Right by the train station so you don't have to drive. Ideal for a get together with friends or Family or even alone. Staff were lovely too.

A pub stuck in the past by its clientele, food fair and prices reflect it. Pay to park.

Handy if your waiting for connection at next door station. 50 min wait for a connection was easily filed by a nicely cooked traditional breakfast

If a pint and watching a fight is your idea of a good night then this is the place for you.

Popped in for a bite and pint. Food really good. Hot and tasty panini. Couldn't fault it.

None meals, service friendly, good all roubd

Everything you expect from a Wetherspoons establishment. Good food, excellent prices and brilliant service.

Tonight i ordered the usually outstanding nachos. I mean i am always in this wetherspoons. I spent most of tonight removing labels from camden hells bottles and redesigning carlsberg stem glasses. Back to the nachos... Frank said ooh hes ordered nachos. I said these arent too the usual nacho standard. This set of nachos was loaded with Jimmy savilles offload. There was no Guacamole. I love guacemole. If this is the new standard ... well now then... i dont enjoy Jimmys sauce inthat quantity. Bring back the standard wetherspoons Shotton. I am dosappointed in you. Still a little tastey and filled an ollow tooth. Cheers.

Since when do u serve frozen soup? I had chunks of actual frozen soup in a warm bowl?? Wonder what food standards would say about this??

I was at this weatherspoons this evening and was not given the £2 discount that was advertised clearly on all the tables, I ask the girl behind the bar and she said ( very rudely) that she had no idea this was on offer today . I asked for a refund of the £2 but was told (again very rudely) that I would have to produce my bank card to process the refund, but as I paid on my phone this was not possible. The amount was not the issue I had it was the way myself and sister were spoken to!!!

Great selection of beers Great prices not many pubs left where you can get 4 pints under a tenner brilliant

Table was dirty when we sit down,I had to ask for someone to clean the table for us and don't think he was happy doing it! It was very hot weather and the windows was closed and fly's flying over our table and near our food which was not nice,over all would I go against probably yes has the food is quite cheap on the special offers other then that then no would not go again but having kids need to keep the bills down

This Wetherspoons is apparently one of the highest rated in North Wales, and after visiting a few times I can see why. The location is really good being near both the Shotton railway station and nearby to bus stops. The prices are cheap, but you'll get pretty good quality food and drink for what you're paying. The place is well kept and always clean from my visits. It generally has a nice atmosphere, and it's always interesting to read where they put up signs about the history of the building and area. Overall a great Wetherspoons to visit.

A bit local, local. Fantastically located for Shotton railway station. Enjoyed the food here. Credit to the kitchen staff, twas the hottest meal I have ever been served in a Wetherspoons! The manager was very busy cleaning the tables, it did leave me wondering if perhaps they thought I was a Wetherspoons "mystery shopper?" All in all a good inexpensive visit. Impressive Spoons.

The 'Spoons - much loved English institution or cynical corporation, it is open to debate. However, they do save some lovely old buildings, and this particular branch served me a much needed pint of cider during a long cycle ride for £1.99, unheard of in the 21st Century.

Lovely venue, very welcoming staff and having never been there before didn't know what to expect. The quality of the food , portion size and the whole experience means I will be back again this week for another go 😊👏👏👍

Fast service, great food at an excellent price!

Not great. Not as clean as it should be, but cheap and cheerful.

Food is always fresh and hot. Table service is also very quick

Cheap and cheerful staff were friendly and helpful food was fine for the price

Great place,. Stayed a bit longer 😃👍

Nice big building, lots of space, good value food, I like the fact that wetherspoons keep the original parts of buildings whilst converting them, like the picture house in Stafford

Same,great.lovely for get together,been this a.m enjoyed lovely coffee and toast.

Grand old pub next to the railway station

This was my 2nd visit to this spoons and we had a meal this time, which was very good and did not wait very long.The staff were polite and kept the tables clean and cleared regularly.

Visited today 22/2/23 and once again clearly the cleanest most friendly . Also food served quick and hot myself and partner and 2 grandchildren had just basic American style burger and chips youngest granddaughter had child's pizza all ate the lot gets 10 outta 10 from me and I have family that work and manage other weatherspoons

Disappointed by staff member's attitude. Sat outside and bought coffees whilst checking Scouts as they came past on a hike. One member of staff came out and had a go at the kids for eating a snack from their bag and refilling their water bottle from a 2 litre bottle we had brought with us. He also chased another customer out of the 'beer garden' as she had a well behaved dog with her. The two parents who were staying until the Scouts reached the next checkpoint had planned to eat there, but took their business elsewhere because of this member of staff's appalling customer service. Management take note, this is probably why it was half empty on a Saturday.

Visited here recently, it was very nice. The atmosphere was bustling as it was a little busy but the food was still hot and fresh, the staff were all very friendly and helpful where needed. Would definitely visit again in the future.

Nice place, not had food but the coffee was good.

Nice wetherspoons. Popped in for a coffee whilst waiting for a train. Lovely setting, toilets upstairs, as a lot of spoons toilets are. Not too busy.

Always a good starting point for a night out.

Was treated disgustingly by staff. Ordered on the app. Drink unavailable despite paying for it. Was refused a cash refund and ordered to drink up and leave. A refund that I am unlikely to ever see again. A loyal longstanding customer lost forever. Staff need retraining in handling customers in my opinion.

Service wasn't great and to be honest neither was the food but its just a standard weatherspoons what do you expect?

Good service, used the app and drinks served quicker than going the bar as was a fairly big queue. Can't fault the staff friendly helpful and fast.

Great Leffe whilst awaiting our train

Breakfast was top quality as usual for a great price. Free refills on hot drinks is an added bonus. Staff are friendly and willing to help

Food (W/spoons standard, nice but no flair) comfortable and pleasant

It's spoons. Simple as that! It's not the Ritz. You will see a woman with a bottle of wine at 09.00 am with 2 glasses but drinks the whole bottle 🤣. Staff are great, food is nice, location is good. It's spoons! Cheap food and beer but a great time to be had here.

You know what you get at Spoons. Immensely good value for beer and wide selection. Food is average but again good value.

Staff are more pleasant than the staff at holywell, change the management and you won't lose as many customers to the vaults in town.

Нормални цени и много добра кухня

Great place for a chat and catchup.

Love the staff, great value for money, sometimes the foods a bit grim but gotta be done 💞

Very good 'spoons. Fast service, very clean But the staff are amazing they check everything is OK are are really attentative. Even with a quiet mid afternoon, they dont stop cleaning and tidying the moment people finish their food or leave. I was really impressed with them

Probably the most dirtiest place to have a meal, tables never cleaned, seats are matted in gods knows what and the floor has more food scattered everywhere, this place needs to stop providing food if there standards are thus bad.

Nice setting full of pics of the area from past times. The food is reasonable pub grub. The drinks are reasonably priced too.

It's a Wetherspoons. What more can you add?

Ordered a tikka masala with the extras from here. The food was lovely though a little on the small side as far as the rice and curry were concerned. The onion bargi was a little burned and the was something crunchy in the rice. Spoke to the manager and my complaint was resolved to my satisfaction. Very helpful staff and an excellent manager. Highly recommended

Very impressed with this branch of Wetherspoons. The service is generally really quick when you order from the app even when quite busy and the food & drink is really good quality. Only slight downer was that vinegar was hard to find.

Breakfast was nice staff very good

Spotlessly clean pub including toilets and outside.Cheap beer too even by spoons standards. Will visit again.

Great place to meet up with friends, Always friendly, enjoy having a meal.

Ordered Steak dinner ,steak cooked how i requested but meal has no mushroom or peas and am sure you use to get half a tomato ,food was boringly enough alright after a load of ketchup on the chips and yea ,that was my last steak dinner for a while from there tbh.

Great food, reasonable prices and a relaxed atmosphere.

Great service, staff were friendly. Food was great and very quick.

Food was okay but loud for me though

It's a Wetherspoons but it's a good one. Great range of drinks and the staff are all friendly.

Very chilled place good for catch up with friends and family a wide variety of food on the menu at very good prices thank you xxx

Went for breakfast, beans luke warm, toast hardly seen the inside of the toaster. Scrambled eggs like cardboard. Previous visits for food have been good.

Typical Wetherspoons. Loud, friendly, beautiful building, great cheap food. Gotta love a Spoons for a fuss free meal.

No sausages or cheese so limited choices on the breakfast but still good value for money

The disabled toilet is a disgrace. The ale prices are really good. It's a hit or miss kind of a place. Don't expect to much and you should enjoy your time there

Always great everytime we come here. Really quick service especially as ordered via the app. Drinks were out within 5 minutes and the meals within 10 minutes of ordering. My boy loves chicken nuggets but nothing beats the ones from here. Staff are always helpful and friendly 🙂. They can't do enough for you. This pub is ideally located as right by Shotton train station. It has plenty of parking including disabled parking which we always struggle with. Definitely worth a visit here.

Tasteless food, dirty bathrooms. Full of drunk people. Staff was nice

Really good breakfast and good value for money.
