The Falcon in Wycombe

Get what you pay for ..food edible..bar staff awful ..Didn't think the staff could get worse but was wrong ..ZERO STARS

Had a really good experience here, recently had a refurb and the pub looks great! Friendly staff with fast service and good food. Will definitely be returning

There was a great selection of great value food here with special deals and afternoon discounts. I had fish and chips with baked beans and a pint of Stella Artois followed by a chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream and Belgian chocolate sauce and a coffee with free refills for just under £12. The service was extremely prompt and the staff were friendly and attentive. I have only marked The Falcon down for atmosphere because of a couple of inebriated customers and a group of slightly loud younger people but that may just have been unfortunate timing. One section of the pub was cordoned off due to a leak but I'm sure that will have been resolved since the Easter holiday weekend.

Absolutely inedible. Literally, the poorest quality steak I have ever been served. Chefs are fine Materials on the other hand?

Foods good, beers cheap, waiters are a bit surly but they deal with annoying people so, fair.

Enjoyed a pint and half of Ruddles ale, I sat outside which was quite busy.

the staff are good at the job and know how to do the job in hand good at know the beers on taps

Waited 20 minutes to be served which wasn’t really a problem as it was Friday night, then was told that they don’t accept Scottish money!!! Not the barman’s fault as he was told by the manager that it isn’t legally acceptable in High Wycombe!!!

Too noisy and uncomfortable, unfortunately

I'm going to give it a 2 star because the manager asked me to leave after my meal due to the fact that i pressed a button to unlock the door to give me access to the outside tables. This door was stuck and i tried it multiple times. Then i looked around and i noticed a button (which is not red, not covered and it does not look like an emergency button at all) , related to the door. I did not read that it should only be used in a case of an emergency. Also i did not hear the alarm if it actually triggered nor people around me panicked or left. Anyways it should not be exposed to public that easily if it should only be used in case of an emergency. I tried to explain that to the manager that it was a misunderstanding but the manager was very unreasonable.

I emjoyed a pint of Guinness and it was served well and tasted good. It is currently under refurbishment and opens again on 2nd April. Will be interesting to see what improvements have been made.

Stayed in High Wycombe for Carabao Cup Final as London too expensive, had a nice meal and drinks in there before the match before getting the train, after we came back to Wycombe after the match I tried to get a drink only to be told I wouldn’t be served as I was a Liverpool fan. Bar staff said that an incident occurred which I can appreciate, but when there were multiple Opposition Fans continuing to drink in there it felt very unfair. Double standards.

Best traditional English breakfasts ever.

Surprisingly the Fish and Chips are good properly battered fish and fried chips.

The “manager” on shift who said his name was “Jamie” was disgusting rude and spoke with absolutely no respect, speaking in a patronising tone and talking over customers. I really hope his superiors address this! Hideous customer service.

You are lucky if you can find a seat for family. They must improve the seats and table. Plus staff can be bit more friendly

Very busy pub. Food arrived hot and in a timely manner.

The pub had a good vibe and the food was good. We sat near the downstairs toilet which being the only place to sit we sat. All was OK for a while. But we noticed the stream of local men using the toilet because they didn't want to use the upstairs. After a while the toilet began to stink badly if urine so we moved to the back of the room. 2 sets of customers moved as the smell was so bad that we even moved again. What was a toilet meant for those who cudnt use the stairs became the main one for everyone to use. We heard a couple complain that it was putting them off their food. After our final move to escape the smell I went to the bar and complained about it. He said he would go check but I never saw him go in and people were still using it so I guess they were not fussed. I thought disabled toilets were for those who were nit for those who were lazy. It was left unlocked so was the toilet highway. I would visit again but would not sit near the top again.

Historic building; Monday special beer and ale prices

Went in for a pre theatre snack, and it was very busy, but we found a table and were served reasonably quickly, and food was as described

Nice pub, good atmosphere, fair prices

Sorry for having my support dog refused entry therefore not allow g me to enjoy the same as their non disabled people and effective boy having to leave 😢

Local pint of Stout + bag of delicious prawn cocktail crisps for 2.73£ !!! Best pub in High Wycombe. 1.45£ for a latté + free refills. 5.5£ for a plate of haggis with neeps and mash + a drink !!! Those prices are good value...

Excellent traditional pub in town centre. Maintained in its antique style. Food good and great value. Staff very efficient and friendly on our visit. We will return when in the area

Want a spoons in High Wycombe.....then look no further

Dreadful place due to awful staff. I've been to loads of 'spoons but this is by far the worst. Food OK. No atmosphere. But the real issue is that the staff are very, very unhelpful and rude.

Not a fan of Weatherspoons pubs. Although staff here are pleasant the place lacked any atmosphere.

Good Wetherspoons. Nice atmosphere and good ale

I'm afraid this one doesn't do it for me. Food is very average and, possibly, because I wasn't in the best of temper due to my companion I didn't have an enjoyable visit.

It's a spoons, it is what it is, it's cheap and cheerful.

Nice atmosphere, great pub for a beer before a gig at the Bucks College, or the Swan theatre.

Great pub, as are most Wetherspoons venues. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing food choices. I will be back again and again.

Service was fantastic. The staff know the menu inside out and the food was done very quickly. The only fault in food was the presentation of food. My fried egg was dangling off the plate and nearly fell on the floor. Would definitely go again though!

Pretty cozy and nice pub. Prices are great

Decent and low priced boozer. Good central location.

Really good spoons. Cheap beer for area

Good prices but not a great ambiance

Typical weatherspoons for cheap beer. Tidy pub, staff ignored us whilst putting away clean glasses, then another staff member served us.

One of my regular haunts! Definitely recommend!

Saturday Night: Better then Cinema and Theatre!

Poor food ,not hot at all, and gave us bad belly,afterwards.

Doom bar, wings, loved it, and it didn't break the bank. Thanks Wetherspoons so much better then Greenking in my personal view

Noisy kids, tables strewn with empty plates, beer decent

There were a couple of gents sat nearby just complaining rather loudly about everything in life and the staff all seemed quite new and unsure but otherwise it was a nice brunch.

We all know what a weatherspoons is, solid choice.

Fairly pleasant Spoons, good service but no bag in box cider sadly

£2.55 a pint !! 5 stars on its own. Food surprisingly good. Remarkable value for money. Tables and the menus a bit sticky but I'll take that at this price !!

Good value and service Didn't eat at the pub

Good service, OK food. You get what you pay for. Good value

I have ordered roasted vegetable pizza and beer combo . pizza was pathetic looks there were no cheeze and pizza was so hard that I am not able to cut properly.

Food was fast and yummy, service was great too

Ale always kept in top condition by manager Matt and his staff. Camra take note!

Freindly staff, and as to be expected

Needed a coffee break whilst on our way to see some hedgehogs in St Tiggywinkles and High Wycombe was a natural stop for us. And so The Falcon would lure us into it's clutches for a hot wet. Another Wetherspoons offering but there'd be no need for a burger or a curry on our visit. We simply needed that coffee and ordered it thirstily. The pub was nothing special, nothing to write home about, nothing to remember, nothing remarkable, nothing other than what you expect from a 'Spoons offering. It does the job, you get what you order without breaking the bank and you get to walk across some truly dreadful carpet on your travels to a vacant table.

As ever from Wetherspoons, good service, great beer 🍺. Great value

The nicest service I’ve ever experienced at Wetherspoon! The waitresses were incredibly accommodating, promptly bringing anything that was missing from the condiments and checking in to see how the food was. The food delivery was quick, and the fish and chips were excellent. Highly recommend!

Vegan burger was small. Chips were pasty. Doesn't come with salad. Beer was good. Staff were very good. Menu: large choice, but with this experience I would only eat there again as a last resort.

Old 18th century town centre pub in high Wycombe. Well restored by Wetherspoon but retaining all its historic features, especially the wood wall panels and fireplace. Usual Wetherspoon menu and good selection of drinks. Gets busy at lunchtime as it's right in the old high street near the Georgian buildings and only 3 min from the Eden Centre. Staff were efficient and friendly although a bit overwhelmed by the numbers of diners and drinkers at lunchtime. Update 7/9/24 : Still great value shown by how busy it was on a Saturday afternoon. Staff were efficient, and there seemed to be more of them, perhaps they have recruited more.

It's a typical Spoon's pub , affordable food and wide selection of good priced bottle and draught beer

Another Spoons, great value and range of drinks.

Good mixed grill, meat was done perfectly

Sticky tables, dark dingy interior, small outdoor space. Even for Wetherspoons this wasn't great

Great beer and food! Just as a Spoons shd be 😁

It’s your standard spoons! Cheap drink and good pretty quick service. Always good to go for a drink and before a night out.

Prompt, friendly service, food was bang on..Very nice, nice price 👍

Another Wetherspoons I've previous been to but didn't review. A medium sized branch in the middle of High Wycombe Town Centre. Now the only branch in High Wycombe after the William Robert Loosely closed a few years ago. A short walk from Eden Shopping Centre/Bus Station and the Train Station. Pub was not overly busy when I visited. Although trade did pick up during my visit. Ordered a Vegetarian Breakfast and a pint of Stowford Press and Blackcurrant. Total cost £7.38. The pint arrived within about a minute of ordering, with the Breakfast arriving in about 8 minutes. However, the sausages were missing, as per the image. Had to chase the server for them. Although to be fair, they did arrive within a few minutes of asking. Breakfast was of good presentation but lukewarm. Despite the minor hiccups, still one of the cheapest places for food and drink in High Wycombe.

Always love it here. Bar staff friendly, good service. Good work everyone

Food was very nice and staff very helpful

Really enjoyed my visit to the Falcon. Staff were great! Food was great!

Great spoons, great choices of drink and food and all reasonably priced...love 3 pints and pint of coke for a tenner..

Spacious, clean and cheap but having been a regular here in the late sixties it has lost a lot of its charm. Decent service. Good position in town centre. One of few town centre pubs open at 11.00 morning everyday.

Nothing exciting here, it's just still ok prices for beers. Not really clean , not really good service, average food and cameras in the toilets ?! A bit sick management if you ask me

I had an extremely disappointing experience with the staff at this establishment. One member was particularly passive-aggressive, swearing and putting her hand in my face when I attempted to address her behavior. This was my second unpleasant encounter here. During my first visit, I received a burger with an almost non-existent amount of sauce. When I requested more, the staff refused, which I found very odd. I'm not sure who is managing this place, but I doubt they will stay in business for long if this continues. I'm relieved I can warn others about the rude treatment and avoid wasting their time and money here.

Had the fish and chips on a Friday night with friends. They had the ultimate burger. My fish and chips came pretty quick, a good portion, which was "just enough". Came with a wedge of lemon which is a nice tough. Batter was really good, but honestly the fish didn't have a lot of taste. As with all Wetherspoons, sauces etc are available from a different table and it's great to be able to fill the plate with as much sauce as needed and not from the small packets. I paired my fish and chips with erdinger low alcohol. Total price was around £10. Bargain. Rest of the pub is now looking a little tired and could do with a bit of a refurbishment. Small outdoor area which was fully packed, so no choice than to sit inside.

Great pub,good service, 80% on the food, will be returning next weekend for a full day.

ordered meals for both me and my sister at the same time, mine came but was waiting half an hour for my sister’s to come even though other food that was ordered after ours was coming out. my sister ended up asking for a refund and the MANAGER didn’t even provide us with an apology, absolutely disgraceful and service NEEDS to improve.

We enjoyed Lunch and Beers at the Falcon

Gotta love a good spoons! foods good, nice crowd, CHEAP drinks. perfect!

Food was stone cold and order was wrong they said you can't change rice to chips I said ha e before with a curry also samosa and onion barji was absolutely cold not cooked they did replace them 2 times sent a peppsi back as not fizzy at all I said I just replace it for something else and manger did come over to see what issues were she was very rude to me and my friends she said I would have to buy a drink again if wanted something else as she said gas was all ok so I said just give me my flat Pepsi funny the 3rd one come and it had bubbles so clearly the gas had just been changed after we complained I thought mangers was supposed to give good customer service they never know when secret shoppers/dinners are in plus customer always right I thought they say anyway will not be going there in hurry again if staff well manger is rude #weatherspoons

Went to the Falcon for a pre theatre drink and a meal. A very big thank you to manager Adam and all his hard working staff for some superb real ale ( Doom Bar ) and some great food . I had an American Double Cheeseburger with a salad and my wife Mags had a simple Beef Madras . The food arrived within 15 minutes which wasn’t bad as the pub was quite busy . Not a grain of rice or a lettuce leaf was left ! Compliments to the chef and a great start to the evening . The concert later was great as well .

Very slow at serving up food and drinks

Went there to be told by a doorman that no-one else was allowed in as they were short staffed . I am an ex publican and found this disgusting . To not even explain it yourself as a manager is terrible . I looked after my customers and gradually built a profitable business. To see such contempt for customers currently is depressing .

Fast service tasty food good price

The Wetherspoon standard never disappoints and is always the same.

The service at the bar was fast, the toilets were clean and the food I ordered was nice.

So for first I was banned for 6 months then 12 for no reason Then after coming In I was told I was banned permanently for bringing in alcoho which i didn't do and then threatened with the police by a manager that I had never met before I just feel that the lack of communication in all this was very inappropriate

Called in 6 times between 15-17 March, was staying to watch the football which was poor but each time i called in,either being served at the bar,or by using the app the service was excellent{even on Friday and Saturday when it was a job to get a seat],despite staff clearing tables promptly. Some outlets you see staff deliver a meal and go back emptyhanded but not here. Had 3 meals,ham eggs and chips,grilled chicken beast burger and double standard burger all served in good time and hot. Washed the food down with some of the festival ales.Noticed the previous week they served 1073 pints of real ale.

A perfectly mediocre JD Wetherspoons, as most of them are. Sticky tables and cheap beer are what make this place iconic. The owner is problematic, but the Falcon in Wycombe is a perfectly acceptable place to get pissed.

Wetherspoons food, served quickly for drinks and food. Quite dark, but plenty of tables.

Very Horrible staff they always place wrong order.

Another great breakfast and friendly staff and the price you can't beat.

We had a great cod and chips lunch with superb Black Tap Hampshire Bowman`s dark ale at the 16thC Falcon that is a jewel in the crown on Sundays for all discerning customers. High Wycombe is a town rich in local history and the local 19thC Hirings Fair and first Charter Market in the 12thC are depicted in the local photo wall tableux- that is the defining decor of the JD Wetherspoons highly rated pubs- that blend the finest real beers with good economy prices for food and table service. Well recommended hostelry and well located in the Corn Market in High Wycombe and good venue on Sundays for lunch.

I’ve been in the past and my experience was ok, but this time Riccardo elevated my expectations for this place. Thank you

Nice pub with lots of drink option and good snacks items

Food was cold had to take it back to reheat then not hot

Ricardo was genuinely rude when taking the order. I asked clarification about the menu and he said to complicated and stated serving another guest. He just couldn't be bothered. The experience was out off by this.

Not so good. Ordered ham, egg and chips. Eggs all smashed up on plate and overcooked. Looked like they had been dropped on the floor. Complained to server who took it away and had them replaced. Whoever plated this should have known it was unacceptable.

Ordered x2 cooked breakfasts, sadly both were cold just after arriving at the table, but the service was fast enough and the venue was quiet - but it was first thing in the morning on a weekday

JD Westspoons pride themselves on serving until advetised time, got told at 2340 (closing at 0000) that they don't serve past 2330...
