The Flying Standard in Coventry

Service very good, food excellent.

Essentially a good place for well kept ale..

Autumn deals in Wednesdays cask ales from £1.79 per pint ... Can't beat it

Usual, wetherspoons staff are very pleasant and friendly. Beer is generally good. Toilets are a mess.

Good drinking pub. Serves food. Caring staff

hello, joshua, the gay but actually straight bald man, he’s cool, thanks for being cool and nice and he even remembered my drinks order isn’t that so cool, thank you joshua you are super cool and nice

The place was dirty toilet dirty staff was ok the got people served quick food looked ok

‘T’ was so lovely and accommodating, she looked after us all night and the rest of the bar staff were also amazing ( specifically Sarah was amazing)

Can't fault it for me and my daughter, a cheap and cheerful lunch

Shopping with my partner we both from Birmingham nice food and staff

Good Wetherspoon with friendly staff and fast service good prices food ok I will definitely recommend and be back

Oc the 3 spoons in Coventry, this is best one. But others are still good.

Didn’t eat but the service in drinks was great and a good atmosphere!

V big. A fantastic building. GREAT location. Wetherspoons usual, consistent, delivery

Only had a pint on way back home. No food and it was a Wednesday so atmosphere was a Wednesday.

We went for a meal with drinks 🍸 🤪, I saw that the table needed cleaning. When I went to order the drinks and meals 😋. I asked the lady at the bar could we please have our table cleaned. Thank you as I went back to our table there was some one already cleaning it. Very impressive service 👏 👌

Super meal sitting in the courtyard.Food and service was excellent !

Great food and beer good affordable prices

Very standard Wetherspooons to be honest!

Always nice to come here for a drink, after surviving Primark 😅

Really beautiful Wetherspoons with lots of outdoor seating, perfect location for people watching.

Large selection of drinks, A1 chunk food

A very nice and cosy place to have breakfast in the morning or beer anf diner at night. One of the most beautiful places in coventry!!

Estándar de ciénaga. El personal era amable pero obviamente mal pagado y con exceso de trabajo. La cerveza fue servida bien y la comida era barata y de esperar.

Really good food. It was a bit noisy but it was a Saturday evening.

Went to have breakfast on the morning of Coventry motofest, very poor , would not let me take dog in , so ok went to sit outside with the dog only to be told couldn't sit here as well. Very poor.

Food was first class will be back.

Pubs ok some staff are vey good its the customers is normally the problem

I walked past it. I've never, ever been in there. It's a JD Wetherspoon pub

Went here a few time loved it never let's me down very lovely pub an Great hidden upstairs beer garden dropped on while looking for loo food good too staff very polite well they were to.me an plenty of choice on drinks ... little help with cleaning wouldn't go a miss though other wise nice clean pub

Great all around pub great atmosphere and friendly staff recommend the beef madras curry

Lovely pub in the centre of Coventry. Good staffing and quick service. Tables cleared very quickly and kept clean

As most Wetherspoons great ales, nice food and pleasant hard working staff.

Un desayuno tardío en The Flying Standard mientras está de compras. Un par de brekkie tradicionales y un par de tostadas para la hija quisquillosa. Cosas estándar. El servidor era educado y sonriente, el pub cómodo y limpio. Era temprano un domingo por la mañana y relativamente tranquilo. No había habido tiempo para que cúmulos de gente derramara bebidas sobre la mesa y dejara caer patatas fritas sobre la horrible alfombra. La comida llegó rápidamente y después de una buena dosificación en salsa HP probamos la mercancía. La tostada estaba desprovista de salsa, la hija rechaza la humedad de las hormigas en su comida y por lo que su trozo de mantequilla era un extra bienvenido a uno de los tradicionales. La comida era agradable, cocinado bien y a pesar de los huevos crujientes, era una manera perfectamente aceptable de empezar el día. Disfrutamos de la visita. Recomendado.

Service was slow at the pub counter

Had a good time last night until I got back from smoke and found my table was completely clean. All snacks drink x2 e-sigarets are gone, and I was literally 3-5 min away. When spoke to bar staff they was nice to me but later manager came down to me an he was so rude 😒 he said they have rights to take my belongings if I left them on the table ( and I left them on purpose so every budy can see that this table is engaged) so when I ask him what I'm supposed to do if I came alone and need toilet or cigarette so he state to me that I have to take all my stuff with me ( even when I'm going for pee? Really?) He was so rude that he didn't even try to apologize to me Absolutely unexpectedly customer service, my night out was ruined 🤕😱 If you are solo guest don't choice Flying standards as this place has no standard at all....

It's a Spoons but a nice Spoons, upstairs is cool

Stunning building. Friendly staff Didn't eat but lots of others were. All looked good

Food was delicious, especially the curries

A typical English pub, so to speak, with a varied range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, the atmosphere is ok, pleasant, recommended for watching sports on TV, outdoor terrace, serving both at the table and and at the bar, with a terrace and for non-smokers, outside in the open air, located in the center of the city, it has a special panorama, I recommend

Well worth a visit with friendly staff, fantastic architecture and nice beer.

Stunning exterior Couldn't believe this is a spoons. Looks like the famous Liberty shop in London with its black and white beamed exterior. Inside is very spoonsy. Out door areas downstairs and upstairs. Fast service. Good location for the shops and cathedral.

I went with my three daughters and we enjoyed the service and the atmosphere we didn't buy any food just drinks but all in all it's all good.

Out with my daughter for a chat and treat just to show her I still ❤️ her.

Staff very friendly and helpful but the toilet on grandfloor was discusting smelly very dirty and wet floor could not use it and can not go up stairs on sticks

The place is nice but when food arrived it was cold , was told when we mentioned it we should have said when we received it.....NO maybe when it gets sent up from kitchen, the person at bar upstairs where we were should answer the phone to collect it out serving hatch instead of chatting , sorry but not happy

Typical spoons bit mad at this specific spoons lots of characters. Other than that normal spoons service.

Quick and efficient service..Good priced ales...Great range of drinks and menu

Me lo pasé muy bien. estaba aquí el sábado muy ocupado. camarera con el pelo rizado rojo / púrpura era muy amable, pero sin duda podría hacer mejor no llevar ropa tan reveladora a mi alrededor y mi marido e hijos. la comida estaba bien.

Great place to go for good price food and drinks. A good Weatherspoons!

Slow service 🐕‍🦺 One day then I caught and bowled a 'Caterpillar Tractor That Attacked and Stole from me as I went to view a flat in Stockport, Greater Manchester in 2023. Pre Dublin & 🏣📯 post 🐈‍⬛🖤 Blackpool unfortunately for them. 👻🌈🦖🤖💪⛷️😉🛞☯️

I ordered a 0% alcohol beer, the waiter asked me for an ID and refused me to serve the drink. He also refused to exchange it with something so I wasted my money.

Best G&T anywhere. So impressed with the selection of fruit.

Perfectamente situado para una pinta y un almuerzo en el pub de la ciudad. Es una cuchara para el clima tan barata y alegre, no exactamente buena comida, pero exactamente lo que esperas

I was there last weekend, you can drink beer without any problems. There are a lot of people, which creates the right atmosphere.

Very massive pub in the town. Food is lovely delicious drinks are good too .

place is abit packed together for food, but food I'd ok

Absolutely disgusting bar staff. No manners no respect. The way my wife was spoken to by the 2 girls working there was absolutely disgusting, and the manager was no better. Will not be returning. The worse weatherspoons I've ever been in

Food could be more consistent always different chefs have different standards of preparation and quality but beer prices cant not complain about

Absolutely disgusting behaviour from the 2 girls working behind the bar last (1/5/24) night. The way they spoke to my wife when she told them that we'd been given the wrong drinks was totally unacceptable and uncalled for. They only looked about 18 but acted more like 12. These 2 kids had no respect or manners and should never be employed in the hospitality business. Weatherspoons should really be more careful of what sort of staff they employ. These 2 would give any pub a bad name

Staff are pretty good, but the pub has a big drug problem

An outstanding Weatherspoons. Found myself stuck in Coventry on an unfriendly night. The very existence of the Flying Standard was a comfort. I had steak & chips; the steak was excellent - done to perfection, juicy & tasty. Chips were v good, too. Spoons are usually cheap & cheerful but don't expect too much of the food. The Flying Standard was a cut above. Thoroughly recommended.

Omg.....if you hear about typical witherspoon....this is it....unbelievable

Standard good fair from a Wetherspoons. Made my first visit 20 years ago and still as good now as it was then

Rubbish... food burnt, just crumbled apart. 3 of us had nearly finished eating when the 4 person got their meal. Had to then put more money in parking just so 1 person could finish meal! The only positive was lovely building

Textbook city centre Wetherspoon pub. Good location for people spotting

Joshua - bartender - was very rude to my friend and made her cry when he asked “why are you still in here”: if we had been kicked out I would understand but we were still able to stay in the pub. I don’t understand the hostility. Very poor service, clearly needs new management.

A good Wetherspoons, big lots of tables. Food and drinks came quickly. Toilets were upstairs but I'm sure there will be ground floor ones available too.

One of the good Wetherspoons: pleasant service, good food for the price and nice building (outside and inside). Definitely worth going to get a meal with a drink for £10.

Coffee and various other hot drinks machine's, not maintained or refilled , very poor !

Eggs always barely lukewarm. Bacon cold on three occasions. Some meals good. Had an excellent steak and puddings good.

Ok so it was St Patrick’s Day but the place wasn’t that busy, we got here about 19.30. I ordered the large scampi (8 pieces) & mushy peas, hubby had a burger with chips. We didn’t have to wait long for our meal to arrive it was nicely presented, but sadly the chips on mine were stone cold 😡 so I went straight to the bar & explained the chips were cold, they did apologise & took my food from me. Within a few moments I had the same plate back (I’d used the lemon) the chips were nice and hot, sadly they’d not checked the mushy peas!!! They were still stone cold!!! I couldn’t be bothered to return them and just ate the scampi and chips. But as my husband said it’s cheap enough and you get what you pay for so they expect you to pay for cold food?? I think not and I’ll definitely not be going to another Wetherspoons in a hurry.

Beautiful place on the outside, regular spoons on the inside, the service was great and the food incredibly tasty, I had a double burger and a pint for only £11, the beer was wonderfully cold and the burger amazing, can't fault it as a Wetherspoons go

Excellent food, great service, happy to correct food mistakes my steak was overcooked and they replaced the entire meal

Bar man upstairs. Absolutely sound

Came here Sunday night and had an absolutely great time with service, for Spoons it was unbelievable. Only downfall is that staff cant accept tips!!

We enjoyed a cooked breakfast here on Saturday, February 24, 2024. Food and drink were spot on - tasty, quality and cooked to perfection. Helpful staff delivered efficient but friendly service. WCs were spotless – and the same could be said throught the pub. We will return to this pub next time we're in Coventry and we will recommend it to others.

Perfect place to hangout after a trip

Beautiful place, not very expensive. Well occupied all day. You can add as much coffee/tea as you want. Excellent breakfast. Pleasant service. Enjoying the pub idea with all kinds of people reading a newspaper in the morning with a glass of beer 🍺! It's a shame that the younger generation is so dominant Made noise.

Food is average. But the beer is good

A great atmosphere, amd a lively spoons.

Unbelievable! Apparently they check the toilets every hour, they sure did check the gents today (in a fashion), I went to the gents and needed to blow my nose, I entered the cubicle and there was no toilet roll, I went to the next where there was plenty. Whilst in there a member of the team came in for his 5pm inspection, I watched him pick up an empty bottle from the floor, sign the inspection sheet and walk out. I asked a bar member what the inspections entailed, she said clear the floor, wipe down sink area and check for toilet paper. I advised nothing was wiped down and there was definitely no paper in at least one cubicle, she said "if a couple have them in we go back later" ! He never even inspected them and why have three cubicles on a busy Saturday night ? I have watched the lady I have advised of the problem, 27 minutes in she hasn't passed on my comments and nobody has returned to the toilets. What a poor show ! Very dissapointed

Went for lunch with friends, ordered a medium rare steak, when steak arrived it was welldone. Sent it back only to be told it was my mistake because the waitress had read the order back. Hang on, I ordered a medium rare steak and she wrote down a medium well steak, how is the mistake mine. The waitress assumes I heard her when she said medium well, she didnt hear me when I said medium rare. Manager came over and sid it was my mistake so would not be replacing the steak. We will not be returning and telling all we know not to go to the Flying Standard in Coventry.

If we could give less than 1 star we would. Ordered a medium rare steak, it came out medium wel done, not sure what that actually means. Staff told me I got it wrong. Person beside me agreed that I said medium rare, staff then argued that I got it wrong. Staff went and got what I pressume was a manager who again told me I got it wrong, person beside me again said I ordered a medium rare, ? manager said I had been rude to the staff, when asked what was said that was rude, no reply came forth. Both staff continued to argue with us saying we got it wrong. They made it clear they werent interested in any kind of customer service so 1 person in party of 5 went hungry despite paying for a meal. No other meal was offered by the staff. A disgusting representation of customer service. Always ask for a printed copy of your order, check, check, check it.

Great service from all the team. They are all very friendly and make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in the door. A big shout out to Tommy for ensuring the customers are satisfied.

Great place for a spot of lunch after shopping.

It’s one of best place in Coventry for enjoying your time with friends or family, a nice place specially upstairs is so much better and calm and have a place for smoke 👍👌, highly recommend.

Burned food was served. The manager Jack refused to take the food back and give us a fresh plate...as according to them the food was top class. My husband ended up not eating his meal. Also we were sat at an extremely dirty table and we asked them to clear up 4 times. They never listened. Horrible experience. We are never going back!

What a fresh change from pubs in birmingham, great welcoming friendly staff and wicked atmosphere.

It is a bit strange at first ordering everything via app... but it works 💪!

Good food, quick service, it's very busy there all the time which makes it difficult to get a table but I guess it must be popular for a reason. Feels a bit like a cheap and cheerful local. Can't complain

Always the greatest place, Very busy, but still managed to get food on time.

The best public house with competitive and affordable prices on quality food and beverages in and around the county

Very good service and range of food. Plenty of seating available.

Went for lunch today and the entire place was filthy. Unfortunately no one was clearing tables and the only tables free were piled high with dirty plates. Had to clear our own table and even struggled to get someone to wipe it down. When the food finally came it was very average at best and the prices have increased a lot. It was overall just ok and I doubt I'd return to this one.

Great place but a bit shot staffed
