The Corn Exchange in St Edmundsbury

Low prices and a great location. Vegan options. Food was a little cold.

I had a small breakfast, it was cold and the bacon just snapped because it was so thin and dry.....

Staff appalling, zero customer service , terrible attitude

Great food and drinks lovely helpful staff

Family friendly, spacious, very fast service using the app, but the burgers are always dry.

Another amazing building saved and meticulously restored by Wetherspoons. Well worth a visit if you are a 'spoony' lovely town centre location with lots of artisan and high street shops. Not a lot of parking. Food as expected, good value for money. Clean toilets.

Great atmosphere too meet up with people and often bump into old friends. The food is spoons so we get what we pay for but prices have gone up each year. Fair enough really it's spoons

Fantastic service, everything was incredible. Served by a lovely young man called Stan who was very attentive and had really cool hair. 10/10 would go again.

Was better as the cirnexchsnge rather than wetherspoons... Lovely building though

super busy on market day but still tons of fun

Busy Friday for the locals 🍻 Decent service from barman.

Exceptional large comfortable venue and for £1.50 tea and coffee plus free refills this has Costa and Starbucks beat from here to America. Food is acceptable venue appealing large comfortably 👌

Beautiful building , good food n service

Food very poor, ordered panini's Chicken & bacon BBQ & ham & cheese. Only chicken in one half , small this ham in other. No dressing no salad on plate. Very poor presentation. Won't go again.

The building was amazing, same for the servers. However when I got my pizza I found that it was pretty burnt on the crust and if I picked it up it crumbled into black dust. Would not recommend for food but maybe a drink or two.

Normally enjoy my visit too spoons with my friends drinking cocktails and that but just yesterday afternoon I ordered on the app with 2 friends and I got asked for ID although I've been drinking there years. I asked for my money back since I couldn't have my drink and the waiter spoke to me like a child . I asked for a Pepsi or another soft drink that was the same price as what I wanted and I was given half ice half salt Pepsi. Not going there for a while or atkesdt until the staff can be a little more polite and less rude

Lovely building. Very good food and service. Definitely going back!!

Nice venue for a spoons. Really good atmosphere and was packed with people. Typical spoons food quality and price.

You know what to expect really , the building is beautiful the food we ordered (English breakfast) was cold , seems to of gone downhill lately.

Great value food and drink. Nice and warm for quick lunch. When shopping in Bury St Edmunds.

A fabulous setting and iconic building. Quite the must visit Spoons ...... do ask about the infamous 1978 Clash concert !!

Great food and good ambience to have a personal time with friends and family. Food was served quickly, even with a good amount of people dining.

Very beautiful place, very tasty food the staff are very nice I went here for the first time today and I’m very happy about this place 😁😁

Can't go wrong with Wetherspoons !!

Had two meals with a handful of chips on each. The duty manager was rude when I queried him about this and refused to put it rite after commenting 'I have seen smaller,"2.30 31/1/25

Great setting and spoons does not fail

Absolute crap, staff rude and coudnt care less, previous plates ect left on table for 2and half hours. Staff said i can only clear one, plates or glasses.

Lovely place. They just forgot my sausages .

Beautiful building. We ordered on the app, it was busy but the drinks didn't take long to come out. Just need staff to clear the tables. We had to move plates and glasses from our table as there was no clean ones.

ordered at the bar, Julie served me, she was so sweet

Pricing should be lower like others are offering.

As always, with Wetherspoons, a magnificent old to

Dropped a star as food was a bit cold but still my go to place for meal out

Went for a breakfast the coffee was lukewarm . And so was the food. Upset stomach both of us. Wasnt busy

Tried the fried chicken wrap, cheesy chips, and wings. All were great! The wrap had a really good spicy sauce on it and the side salad was nice too. Ordering on the app is easy and fast. Great place for a casual dining experience without feeling like you need to dress up.

Limited food menu and long wait for food to arrive,

Busy place, decent cheap food, very popular.nice venue, clean and tidy.

My fav Spoons in the UK. Consistent good atmosphere, very friendly customer service. Lovely building

Shame that my food was cold and just luke warm after I complained

Great venue (perhaps doesn't look like the main photo). It was mega busy and staff were doing a good job to keep things tidy and get food out quickly. Can't knock it.

Service beautiful...food was lovely 😍

Too busy around Christmas. Left waiting for a prolonged period. Do not recommend the vegan ramen.

Ordered on the app correctly. Food send was wrong. Had to chase correctly Food. What food we got was cold and overcooked. Mixed grill was mostly dry and inedible. Would not go again

Well its a Spoons, think we all know what to expect. Excellent value food and drink. Staff here were very polite and friendly with faster service than one normally expects. But my, what a wonderful building! So Google now a few months on would like an update. As previously said, well it's a Spoons, think we all know what to expect!!! Google asking me for an update in 2024! Well as many Spoons fans know. One always knows what to expect and they still keep delivering to that expectation.

Always happy with weatherspoons ! Good value and quick sevice and quality food .

Best looking wetherspoons I been to

Gangstas building with a great atmosphere, it didn't look like a restaurant when you turn up, just go up the stairs. Typical weathrspoons food

Food was had great value and taste, and there were many options on the menu from all sorts of countries, the service was quick and the seating was very comfortable. The portion sizes were a bit slim, and drink selections were decent but somewhat confusing.

I like the space and great building

Went back today 25/11/24 So got burger chips and onion rings and fish and chips for partner. Well plate was very hot was passed it and burnt my fingers but hey ho. Got food my burgers and bacon cold chips and onion rings where warm ish. Didn’t complain because all you ever get is sorry about that. Yet again very disappointed and won’t be back in a rush. Food was cold and onion rings greasy Ordered burgers for 2 of us. Would had more in a happy meal. We was very disappointed with the size of the portions. Chips where few big chips mixed with all the bits that are wafer thin.

Said my friend was bad at singing so rude for no reason

One of the most beautiful Wetherspoons we've visited. Really well cared for building, with the usual unbeatable prices.

Busy on a Saturday lunchtime. We tried the Xmas meal with extra pigs in blankets. Good value albeit a bit underwhelming. No Roasted potato - mash instead. However it beats my home cooking

Busy for a Sunday but expected as November. Service man was nice friendly. Food was OK not completely hot but edible.

Spoons is a good place for cheap food and drinks

It's one of the best Wetherspoons I have been in, really nice decor inside. And a great atmosphere, it is really worth a visit.

As always huge selection of beers at reasonable prices. Corn exchange is amazing building.

Despite it being a madhouse on the weekend and packed, the staff were fantastic.

Both our meals were cold. We had to take them back. They then cooked them from fresh and I enjoyed mine. Why do they just try to keep food warm, even the plates were cold.

Decent space to get pub grub and few drinks in bury, affordable, shame doesn't have beer garden and only one story

Our regular but greatly disappointed on Friday at18h30- whole family disappointed : out of stock Nachos, out of stock cod and chips and then to top it all out of Tikka curry SHOCKING BUT OPTION FOUR worked Chinese around the corner had everything in stock for a family of 6.

As far as being open till 1am, the security staff are bullies and aggressive. We stopped in for last few drinks after a great night elsewhere for it to be spoilt at 12:30 by a tall long haired security guard telling us he needed us to leave. We still had half an hour and a jug to drink between three of us. When we said we’ll just finish up he said I’m not a person to argue with. 10 mins later and he’s clearing our jug and glasses away when we hadn’t finished. You shouldn’t say open till one if your being that aggressive with half an hour to go. Dreadful behaviour.

What is not to like about cheap beer and food in a pub where you can speak without shouting, go wetherspoons

Pretty nondescript, about all you'd expect from a Wetherspoons. Low prices and average quality food. The food could always be better, but for the price paid not bad. Ran out of guacamole which meant the nachos were a bit lack-luster. The cheesey chips might as well have just been regular chips with the amount of cheese they had on them. Though despite it all cheese cost an extra 50p so can't complain too much really 🤷‍♀️

Very busy and long wait for food but waitress very apologetic

Very comfortable pub good atmosphere and food good value.

Very nice restraunt lovely food very good value for money well worth a visit if in Bury St Edmunds 👍👍

They kicked out my friend because he was black.

I fell over on a wet floor in front of the bar area and hurt my hip and shoulder . There was no response from the bar staff or anyone else. We had to call for the manager to complain and his only response was “I’m sorry “. We had to ask him to take details in case there was any comeback which he took on a scruffy piece of paper. There was no accident book or any other response. I walked out with out having my order I was half way through ordering. Very poor customer service.

Quite a nice spoons and met friends for drinks at very good cost.

Can be noisy at times But a very pleasant place for a drink & eats

Very untidy,ladies toilet unkept, Vagrants drunk in entrance to the lift area. Food came to the table not what was ordered, your staff were friendly and helpful when complained about food. Won't stop us returning but these issues need addressing.we we're a table of 5.

Great weatherspoons. One of the nicest around...

One of the best spoons in the country. And I've been to a lot of spoons. High valuted glass ceiling. Sensational.

Absolutely fuming, ordered two drinks and was waiting 30min! I was watching friends get their drink when they had ordered after me and received them within 5 to 10 minutes. I had gone up and asked where my drinks were and was told they would be over soon after showing my order email. they brought over my friends drinks so I was confused as I had just showed them the drink I was missing. I asked a waiter who said he would check but another 10 mins later still nothing I went up again and was shouted at by a supervisor saying “We have made your drinks you have gotten them!!!” when I tried to say that I hadn’t received anything and tried to show him my order number again he shouted the same thing and I said “why would I lie I’ve been waiting ages I would just like my drinks” and he implied I was a liar. Thankfully a waitress was very understanding once I explained the situation and she made and brought my drinks over right away. I am shocked at how rude and unkind the supervisor of all people was to me. I understand that hospitality is a stressful and fast paced work environment but this was unacceptable and made me feel as though I was in the wrong, even though this wasn’t the case at all.

Would be an excellent place if they could teach staff to clear tables when people have finished.... dirty dishes and glasses everywhere.... every time I have been there.

Had the most appalling food. Would not recommend.

What an absolute joy to behold after driving through the night. The staff are supper happy and friendly and treat everyone with kindness and respect. The breakfast is well cooked and tasty. Bury St Edmunds you get full marks and my thanks. Fantastic all around.

Very slow service, staff more interested in stacking glasses.

Another lovely example of a well preserved iconic building housing the splendid spoons

Staff welcoming and helpful so are locals, food was also very good. Both a lot better then previously. It is one of the smaller wetherspoons but as alway the history of the place has been maintained. The town is well worth a walk around plenty to do and see. Been here many times this time the staff well on the ball, when a couple started to change there babies nappy on the table in the bar. People eat at that table we sat on the next table dinner had arrived and others eating all around. Staff quickly moved in to stop them and pointed them to the baby changing area. THANKYOU STAFF 😊

Good value for money food and drink interesting building

A nice place really, very noisy as its only one large room. Very busy early Saturday lunchtime

JD Weatherspoons is always a great place. I enjoyed this one very much. Beautiful architecture, very busy.

As always you know what your getting, quick service and good food. Only draw back is the noise level, my hearing aids could not cope.

It's a ok place, there more concerned with the table turn over , they should clean the tables when they clear them. As you can see. And the drinks machines never work, so when working they only fix one . And this is toast.

I had an awful experience at Wetherspoons. A careless staff member spilled a drink all over my friend and then had the nerve to blame them for it! The rudeness and utter lack of professionalism from the staff were astonishing. This place is a joke and we will never be coming back to this disgraceful establishment.

The Corn exchange has a beautiful ambience and exhibits great historical charm, so we went there for drinks & dinner, the usual…The drinks offered were good, however there were some specials(curry) on display, tried for the first time yesterday. It was appalling, that the staff took almost an hour to serve it after 3 constant follow ups, and when the dish was served, it was supremely spicy 🌶️ 🥵along with uncooked pappodams…When the staff was told about it, they said they couldn’t do anything but REFUND, and vanished from the scene. When I approached in person at the counter , the manager was very rude & refused to do anything ….just felt like the staff was very immature, didn’t know what they were doing and were overwhelmed. I’ve been to Wetherspoons before & had quite liked the overall place, but yesterday was very unprofessional, don’t think my friends & I would be visiting again, coz of the ungrateful service & no sense of accountability! Dont recommend!!!!!

Got to be one of the best spoons in England .

A nice Wetherspoons set in a lovely old location

Excellent service good food and cheap

Weatherspoons is good value for money. Never feel "ripped off". Had F & C this time the Family had the Indian on the menu. Good portions every one happy.

This is the best spoons ever! The staff were really helpful when asking about local public transport and so happy to clean the table and serve. Top marks 👌

Spoons is Spoons but very busy and disorganised when I visted

Fantastic building, but so loud in there, impossible to have a conversation. Had the curry on special offer, which was lovely but spoilt by rock hard nan bread which was served on top of the poppadoms, which made them floppy and chewy, instead of crispy.

We came here to try a typical English dinner in a pub, and we found very little that was typical. The location is also nice, but the air conditioning is too intrusive, so much so that you feel cold even in a sweatshirt. The service is terrible, we couldn't understand where we had to order, and the first waiter couldn't even tell us what we should do. In the end we ordered at the counter, and the lady confused the cheese burger with the normal one. When the food arrived it was very little and of very low quality, and on top of this a sandwich wasn't even arriving, until a waiter stopped him and brought it wrong the first time and cold the second time. Highly recommended place, avoid it if you can.

One of the best wetherspoons. Nice open area with a relaxed feel

Less crowded in the mornings. Good value for food and beer.

This is a lovely building but this is unreal. Some of the staff are rude and just straight up lazy. During the hour we sat here, we received our drinks and myself and another member of my family had the refills for coffee and other hot drinks. Both machines was unable to use due to having no coffee. After informing the staff they was rude. One took our cup away didn’t say anything. No replacement cup was given. Until we went to the bar. It took just over 40 minutes to clear tables that the staff who wasn’t busy just stared at the tables. Unfortunately the couple who sat at the table had to clear the table themselves. Our food came out it was stone cold. Chips wasn’t cooked properly, onion rings was soggy, then our burgers was cold. We couldn’t complain as we couldn’t find a member of staff! As we was served meat we should have been check up on after 5 minutes of our meal being served. Nobody check up on us. Staff here are walking around with moody faces.no conversation was given. Won’t be coming back here again. This place is a joke.

The Corn Exchange is one of the best Wetherspoons we've visited. Such a beautiful building, spacious, clean and inviting. Refreshing drinks and tasty food, good value for good money. Friendly, accommodating, staff.
