The Eccles Cross - JD Wetherspoon in Salford

Today was the worst breakfast I have ever had in a witherspoon. Thin, not full slices of bacon were burnt. About a dessert spoon of beans, hash brown still frozen on the inside and served on a cold plate. I usually come for breakfast at weekends and it's spot on, but on a Thursday it was absolutely terrible!

The experience never worsens with good food fairly priced and plenty of room.

Food is not bad for a wetherspoon. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, very clean and well presented.

Cheap beer. Poor quality food. People smoking in no smoking area 🤬🤬🤬

Awful scruffy place, full of really strange dodgy characters, service is tragically poor and place looks disgusting

good atmosphere and food. recommended

Always good service and nice food

Superb priced pub and busy enough for a good atmosphere. Enjoyed the beer garden on a sunny day with friends. Good environment for not breaking the piggy bank.

Nice friendly pub to sit down and relax

Do like a spoons, but they missed a trick, where's my Eccles cake?

Seen 2 lady’s fighting one hit the ground and the bar staff just watched disgusting won’t be returning

Great for tasty and very reasonably priced food and cheap, high quality coffee and hot chocolate. A pleasant 19th century building with many displays about local history on the walls.

Excellent staff great table service with the app 👍👍

Causal style restaurant, suitable for family

Mit very good for food . Had several issues

We had to wait approximately thirty minutes after our food to have deserts. We even had bad looks from the staff. Table 44 21:05 on 29th June

Enjoyed the food , staff were good and friendly. Nice clean pub.

We have had bad experience in this pub couple of months ago and shared our disappointment with management. The customer service was so amazing that we gave it a try again and we were impressed. The food, service and staff...all perfect. Thank you.

I enjoyed my visit and the meal was great.

Fairly quick service. Quite busy but not loud, not many free tables. Eggs were a bit rubbery. Overcooked. Decent size portions served On the whole a nice relaxing breakfast. Coffee ran out so hubby had to have mocha or hot chocolate.

Great atmosphere. Real assortment of people in there. Friendly and a nice big beer garden.

I came several time and it's the first time I met the Quiz night! The host did it incredibly fabulous. We have so much fun! (Even we just got few correct answers) Thanks for arranging this!

Kid's spag bol was dry and hard, it shouldn't have even left the kitchen, sent it back and requested a fresh one. Server said it would come out the same, no apology whatsoever, received a refund. Was then given a perfectly fresh bowl of spag bol... Could the chef not be bothered making fresh food, or are they just lazy? All Staff need retraining!

Very yummy food but service is often slow even when not busy

Decent, normal, nice service, food, drinks are good, large, spacious restaurant, the price is normal, not expensive

Great pub,great choice of beers and friendly staff.

Typical spoons opposite Eccles tram stop

Good selection of ales, friendly staff and good atmosphere

Good boozer with great staff, didn't eat but others we're and didn't see any complaints.

A friendly venue with a warm atmosphere and attentive service.

As with most of the weatherspoons this is a great place for a cheep paint. Food you get what you pay for. Staff are friendly enough, overall an ok place. Great value for money.

Busy, smallish Wetherspoons. Plenty of Guinness for St Patrick's Day. Close to Tram Terminus

lovely atmosphere, foods typical of wetherspoons but nicely played up, the only issue here are the toilets are always full of urine and stink all the time

Say the same thing every time I go spoons... How can you not love 2 pints for £3 70 and an all day brunch and beer for £6.50 it's cheaper than cooking at home! Brilliant love it

Great Wetherspoon's Nice barstaff Good atmosphere

It's a spoons nothing else to say

Nice place to gather and have a drink 🥂

The hooch tastes like a summers day

I think the 2 mangers at eccles Cross are 2 face witches

Great value for money and lots of choices, but more expensive on weekends. All-day breakfast with drinks is only £4.91. There are plenty of seats, but the place is nearly 90% full.

Food was cold, mash spuds was disgusting, the pudding was like cardboard it was disgusting

Very good situated opposite the bus and tram stations and 1 minute from town centre

Tables need to be cleaned regularly

Local restaurant and pub. Busy and friendly. Reasonably priced.

Electronic cigarettes being smoked in the pub and not being challenged Vaping still going on You need wellies to use the gents and that was at 3 in the afternoon!! Seems to have cleaned up their act No sign of vaping and toilets tidy Keeping standards up

Very nice pub, we were there three times and always satisfied

We eat at Eccles Cross at least twice a week. We rate highly the food, the choice of drinks, the staff, the convenient location, the reasonable prices and the location. I particularly enjoy the decaff drinks, especially decaff mocha

Some of the best staff in a pub I've experienced great for a cheap pint

Staff were confused about the order and sent out the wrong burger and refused to change it or refund the food. Really shocked! Chicken wings were burnt but didn'tcomplain, i just wanted my daughters burger fixed to what we ordered. We ended up throwing most of the food away, chicken strips were OK. After years of going there (since 2007) I would have thought they would have treated a loyal customer better. You just lost a long term and loyal customer because of terrible customer service. Definitely not going back, sad

One of the best weatherspoons around Alat the moment. Excellent prices on drinks and food. With deals on. Very pleasent staff..

Great value breakfast. Good bit of fuel to start the day! £3.14 when you order from the app, can't go wrong, would cost that just for a packet of bacon. Throughly pleased, quick service, and a tasty little brekkie.

Nice crowd just the buzz of conversation

Great fast service nice friendly staff very nice food well done guys

Nice place, bar tender was really nice and friendly, food tasted great

Lovely breakfast and staff were very polite

Always have a cheap and good meals

Warm and friendly. Good food. Just what you need on a cold winter's day.

Food was hot ,as ordered, I waited a while but that's fine, as long as its correct when it comes,,

Disgusted with the breakfast I had today, Toast was white don’t think it had seen a toaster, Beans had been nuked don’t know how many times throughout the morning, Eggs over fried, Bacon cold, Ash Browns and sausage nice and hot, Not happy no excuse for this to be served like that, Offered to exchange it but I declined not happy, service from bar staff delightful the young lady is always pleasant could not have asked for a better service lager lovely pint.

nice place and food but the pizza is like a bread stick and my choco cake was cold when I ordered a warm one and they put my ice scream on top of the cake

Awesome food, every time I have fish and chips here I ask the same question, is this the best battered fish I have ever eaten ? Light crisp batter with no sign of fat, moist fish, perfect. Friendly, professional, efficient table service from Carmen and Leon 🙂

Awful place. The worst wetherspoons I've been in

It's a Wetherspoons, you know what you're getting. Beer and breakfast were fine.

Lovely place with lovely staff. The food quality is super class. Would prefer to come again and again

Not really noteworthy compared to most spoons but whoever was in the kitchen Tuesday afternoon between 1.30 and 2.00 should get a pay rise. I've had a lot of spoons food over the years and this was by miles the best, cooked to perfection. Ended up also ordering couple extra small plates and a dessert which were also equally delicious

Good value for money but bacon and beans were cold on breakfast and the cleanliness of the tables were shocking still sticky and had marks on them

The frontline staffs are very nice and give helpful. The traditional breakfast is very general but reasonable price.

Food was great, just a bit busy so seating wasn't the best but a nice big beer garden around the back

Good old traditional pub with food and drinks, but is it me or have breakfast beans portion gone smaller?

Great service and atmosphere. Always clean! Here I had one of the best cooked steaks I've ever had (I ordered medium rare and got it more on the rarer side—just how I like it!). Not sure if this is a brand-wide change, or just The Eccles Cross, but I appreciate the recent change in sausages—the taste and quality has improved immensely. Only reason not 5* is because the portion of beans during breakfast hours is very small 1–2 teaspoons at most.

Service terrible. Needs to be more organised at the bar such as a roped off queue system. Staff not the happiest.

I've been going to this Bar and Restaurant for a Number of Years now the JD Witherspoon Eccles Cross, and I have noticed that I have neither seen any trouble there, the People and staff are friendly and you can talk to them most easily. One of the most important things about anything these days is the price JD Witherspoon is in my mind one of the cheapest Bars 🍻 around and if you want a affordable day out this is the place for you, I mean £3.37 for a paint of Stella that would be £5 in Manchester or even Monton just down the Road 🛣️. To be honest I don't eat there so I'll leave that to you. All in all a pleasant place this is why I am going to give 5 Stars 🤩.

Can't fault the place. Always a good pint and chilled out atmosphere.

Delicious breakfast 🍳🥞 and coffee ☕

Cheerfully relaxed. Great for quick food, and an array of fine ales and beers.

Very dark and gloomy, but good service and prices.

Order chicken and maple salad that had no salad. The Assistant Manager said they were keeping the calories low. You pay £11 Salad doesn't cost that much. Wouldn't give me any salad at all with this meal

Great wetherspoons well worth a visit

Half a pint of real ale and refillable hot drinks for £2.09. Both male bartenders were helpful and polite.

Great choice of ales, staff are very polite, nice open air at the back 👌

I attended there after the derby aga cup final. I’d only dropped in for a few beers. But same old Wetherspoons. Great alcohol!

Reasonably priced wide range of beverages. Staff friendly and polite.

It's become my regular now a quick tram ride worth the effort cheapest drinks by far, and with the sun shining excellent outside area sun till 8pm🌞 pleasant friendly staff.. Just one issue there's nothing cheaper than chips and they can make a simple meal look more impressive! I think when you spending nearly £13 on a meal I would have liked more than 9 chips! I know that things have gone up, but nothings as cheap as chips! 😜

I only give 2 stars as they don't allow dogs. I was having a nice afternoon in the beer garden and would have stayed for tea if I didn't have to get home to mine. It's the only reason I don't usually drink in Wetherspoons. I like a Dog Friendly place.

Get served by Kyle often, he always has a smile for everyone and good advice on drinks . The staff make the place. Would definitely recommend

Very disappointed that they didn't have any jacket potatoes - who doesn't have potato's in stock?

Worst service ever. Never clean the table.

The fish was nice and hot, chips and peas were cold

Was OK, just another Witherspoons, tbh. It is what it is

We met our family in Spoobs @ 4.30 but it was v busy. No tables left. It was ultra dark and depressing. No atmosphere. We all decided to leave. We went to Trafford Centre instead for a change .

Get what you pay for cheap pub grub..our food was cold and sent back wouldn't recommend food but the beers good

Went in for a breakfast everything on the plate was stone cold ! Black pudding was rock hard and when complaining to Bryan the bar staff he then smirked asif it was funny and ask what do u want me do about it ! Shocking and not the way to deal with a customers complaint just because you have a "big delivery " won't be going again

Was a really nice place inside with multi-levels and an outdoorsy area. Great food and service too! Full range of beers and ales, plus refillable hot chocolate! Food service until 11pm. Well Done Wetherspoons for creating a safe and relaxing place!

Doesn't matter which spoons you go to, order a curry and almost never have mango chutney, this has happened in 5 I've been to, can't have poppadoms without come on

Smaller than expected, but some cracking local beers and a typical 'Spoons . . .

Beer is cheap but the toilets are a mile away.

Breakfast wasn't too great, cold

Nice pub lovely staff great beer...Brightside Inn crowd beer at £1.39 a pint on my visit 21/02/23

The staff are brilliant here, recognise every customer. Can't fault this place.

Great staff, clean facilities nice atmosphere
