Probly would avoid this place unless you like to be verbally abused by the staff. I said I thought number of table was 23 to which somebody,that wasent serving me said you better go find out then hadent you. With an aggressive manner I asked him why he was speaking to me like that to 6which he started shouting I'm not getting served. Seriously over a number which I went back to check it wasent a issue. He still at this point shouting how am not gettin served and get f**kin out. The bouncers and the manager came over and bouncers couldn't handle it better and apologised for the adult that was acting like a child. Standing at the side of his general manager shouting get out you fat bitch. That certain staff member deffiantly need s a few lesson in customer service and how to generally act as an adult.....

Pretty much a regular Wetherspoons - nothing fancy but it does what it says on the tin. The pub is quite big and has a large beer garden. Food is standard fare but the service is quick. Staff are friendly. The tables are cleared quickly and any mess was tidied up quickly (there was a small spillage but it was sorted ASAP).

Hi I'm just writing this review customer service is spot on my only problem is that none of the kitchen staff wear Gloves provided when handling other people's meals... This is unhygienic and unprofessional..I don't think any of the kitchen staff fully understand the reasons behind COSHH..or they would be wearing gloves...

One of the better places if going for a drink. However, was very disappointed with my bacon butty. Bacon very pale pink and full of fat. Couldn’t eat it. Quite slow service when ordering on the app. Breakfasts were out before the drinks.

Asked the bar tender if I can feta. Receipt. By this point, the bartender had served another customer and told me that I cannot have a receipt. When a colleague made another order, I asked if we could have the new receipt and the bar tender stated asked, "do I not pay taxes?" Why I'm I asking for a receipt. Totally confused by this and I said I just want a copy of the receipt which he told me to get out. I honestly do not understand why the bartender was soo triggered. Awful customer service. If you are travelling for work, AVOID!!!

I along with many other Grimsby Town supporters visited prior to a football match against Barrow on Tuesday 25th October. The food appeared ok and service was quick. Unfortunately, 40+ Grimsby Town fans came down with D&V from Wednesday evening onwards!! This was reported to Barrow council and then on the Saturday the pub 'chose' to close for a deep clean because some staff members were suffering from a sickness bug!! DO NOT GO TO THIS PUB, IT'S A HEALTH HAZARD.

I was disappointed to be honest. Not enough staff for a busy Friday night, some unsure how to serve some of the drinks, many items missing off the menu, and no-one to change the barrel when the beer ran out. I used to enjoy Wetherspoons, but I'm finding them less attractive for food.

We visited the Railway for an evening meal as it was some time ago that we had eaten there. Firstly the floor wasn't very clean, bits of food under several tables, menus we're stained. We ordered burgers as we had been pleased with them in the past. They arrived, not the quality they used to be, very thin and tasteless, I asked for tomato sauce and was told they had run out, no vinegar to be found either. The chips and burger were barely warm, the bun wasn't toasted, we left most of the food and walked out. We certainly won't be returning. Surely it's down to the management to ensure the cleanliness and the standard of food, also sufficient stock when it comes to the condiments. Very disappointed.

Nothing out of the ordinary for this Spoons. I ate here for four consecutive nights recently - it was the normal Spoons fare. However the fried fish was very large and the steak was tender and juicy. Usual Spoons issue of slow table clearing but the staff work very hard and are friendly and efficiently. My only issue personally was that most nights particularly Friday were very busy and it wasnt always easy to find a table.

Fui aquí varias veces mientras trabajaba en la ciudad, así que experimenté una cantidad decente de factores variables. La gente en la puerta estaba feliz de dejarte entrar especialmente a la chica rubia o simplemente a la defensiva del gran pelirrojo. Siempre estábamos sentados en la parte derecha del pub, que en más de una ocasión fue muy similar a la hora de comer en el zoológico. Observé muy poco en la forma de seguimiento y seguimiento a pesar de las formas en la puerta, nadie parecía realmente molesto. Comprensiblemente, el personal se veía estresado todo el tiempo debido al esquema de 'Comer fuera para ayudar', quiero decir, es lo suficientemente barato para empezar, así que, ¿por qué participar en esto? Me dieron una parrillada mixta grande con 2 pintas de frutas oscuras de arco fuerte para menos de 9 libras, irreal. Siempre me sentí nervioso aquí debido a la gente que me rodeaba, una noche había una familia con un niño que seguía gritando y un adulto detrás de mí también seguía gritando, haciendo que el niño gritara más fuerte. era un absoluto idiota y ¿qué hizo el personal? nada. . . . fue ridículo. . . . . la comida era buena, algunos miembros del personal eran amables excepto un niño que parecía que quería pelear contigo cada vez que iba al bar, pero el ambiente era horrible. Nunca volveré a visitar ya que recientemente descubrí el búho y el gatito, que es mucho mejor.

Fui a desayunar aquí un miércoles después de una buena experiencia anterior. Por donde empiezas Hice el pedido y luego nos informaron que no había jugo de naranja ni jugo de manzana, así que dijimos que tomaríamos agua caliente y jugo de arándano en su lugar, el jugo nunca llegó en más de una hora allí. Los desayunos llegaban fríos y con artículos faltantes y uno de los desayunos nunca llegó. La mantequilla con las tostadas se había derretido por completo y estaba líquida. Envió las tostadas de frijoles a recalentar y volvió a enfriar. Faltaban champiñones a todos, finalmente llegó el último desayuno menos las salchichas. Ambas máquinas de bebidas se quedaron sin leche, por lo que solo pudieron obtener café negro o agua caliente. El servicio era terrible, la calidad del desayuno pésima, tocino graso, platos fríos y nunca nos pidieron el jugo. No se me ocurre nada para recomendar este establecimiento.Pidió hablar con el gerente, quien finalmente se acercó y prometió reembolsar todo el pedido, pero solo un artículo (aproximadamente el 25% del pedido).Evitar.

El personal es espantoso, no solo necesitan reentrenamiento sino que también necesitan aprender cortesía, modales y perspectiva. Pero algunas cosas no se pueden "entrenar", eso es una cuestión de mala percepción y deficiente proceso de investigación por parte de la dirección. El gerente de la parte del hotel también se sintió consternado cuando dijimos que el personal nos desafió sin rodeos e irrespetuosamente cuando nos quejamos de la cerveza sin gas.El hecho de que fuimos desafiados y en un caso por un brusco "¿cómo lo sabrías" en una breve y grosera referencia a nuestra capacidad para determinar qué constituye una cerveza sin alcohol? ! ! ! es un signo de '¡ALGO MAL! ! .¡Realmente contrólate! ! Sé que ese no es el primer comentario sobre la mala actitud del personal y estoy seguro de que no será el último.

Had no problems with the hotel itself but had major problems with the bar area. I found the bar Staff to be rude and unhelpful. It felt as though the staff were more interested in themselves rather than the custom. This isn’t the first time I have visited the establishment and thought this. Second of all, the staff seem to preoccupied with themselves rather than clean tables they pass or collect glasses and food plates. It was astounding how many time’s I watched people walk past dirty tables. Nice place but get better staff.

The food here has much improved over the last 12 months and we have actually started to eat here again with various nights having good special deals on. The thing that consistantly lets this place down is dirty tables, glasses and peoples plates/meals left on tables for ages. If you order drinks on the app, they bring the drinks over to you but leave the empty glasses on the tables (its as if its not in the job description to do that!) Some staff clearly very miserable and don't want to be there - its a chore. Staff need some serious training on common sense customer people skills. Some staff now have a spray and cloth attached to their clothes but don't even use them, Beer and food prices are great. I would rate the food as excellent but all the above is reflected in my score.

We like going down to Furness Railway on Thursday for Curry night, but it is so cold in there it doesn't encourage you to stop for a few drinks. No matter where you sit there is always cold air blowing from the vents in the ceiling, you shouldn't have to sit there with your coat on. I asked one of the bar staff if they could turn the blower off, she said they could not adjust the air con settings. I have read reviews about other Wetherspoons which seem to have the same problem. Come on Tim get your act together you are going to loose customers.

Went to the Barrow spoons whilst visiting family. The great thing about spoons is you know you are going to get a value for money drink and basic pub food at a good price. We got all if this. It was a busy Thursday evening with a good atmosphere. The drinks were as expected. Cheap. And the food came quickly and was all cooked as requested. I would like to mention the staff who were extremely pleasant and friendly a young lady and a young man behind the bar in particular impressed me with their friendly service. Well-done.

Had xmas dinner and was sadly disappointing. Mash was watery and no pigs in Blankets so when asked they said they would give us onion rings. Not with a xmas dinner! Disappointed.

Myself and 3 friends visited The Furness Railway for lunch today. Sat at a dirty unclean table, with several plates, glasses etc on it. We ordered our meals and drinks and returned to the dirty unclean table. When 2 of the meals arrived the young lass dropped a lot of the chips off the plate onto the dirty table and said “My hands are clean, I’ve just washed them” and put the chips back onto the plate!!!!! Our races dropped, we couldn’t believe what we were seeing. It was only when my friend said they’ve been on the dirty table she said, “Do you want me to change it?” Unbelievable. Then when we asked if she could take all of the previous dirty plates etc away and she said no she had to get some food out!! We think the young lass needs some training on customer service etc

Went for breakfast few days ago having first battled the clouds of strawberry muffin vapours and Richmond’s finest surrounding the entrance then through the tables of local ale samplers before settling down to be stared at whilst eating my lovely full English( not a liquid breakfast!)don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t presume to tell anybody how to live there life,but surely at that time of day rounding drinkers up into the bar area would be a better option even if your wanting a meal and pint at that time of day putting them in a designated area wouldn’t be that difficult,totally indifferent staff they must see smokers by the entrance yet not one of them enforces there own policy ever and it doesn’t take rocket science why (losing revenue)feel sorry for the guests staying at the hotel I can choose to go elsewhere but having paid to stay I wouldn’t be impressed at what goes in, by the way breakfast was nice

We visited early on Sunday evening, it was very busy, looking for a table I nearly fell down the step in the middle of the room. Later on we saw other people stumble or end up on the floor because of the step, there is a sign but it's not enough,a banister to make the step more visible?

Seems to be nearing the end of an impressive renovation, the pub is nicely decorated, comfortable, with some very eye-catching, historic pictures of Barrow adorning the walls. The adjustable 'mood lighting' in the booths was also a nice touch! Called in on a busy Saturday afternoon, but soon found a table. Used the app to order food and drinks as the bar was pretty crowded. Both arrived very quickly, served by friendly and helpful staff. Great value, great pub.

We found our second Wetherspoon place just down the street from our hotel. We had seen others since our first experience in Liverpool, but the ratings weren't as good as this place. We like the Small Plate 3 for 10GBP offering. This time we tried the Spicy Prawns (new), and our favorites the Chicken Breast Bites and the Chicken Wings. Best of all, Guiness was 2.25 a pint for some Monday Club special. Our kind of place. This location is better organized and they were able to clear and clean tables in a more timely manner. A tip, though, properly clearing a table includes wiping the surface clean, not just removing dirty dishes and glasses.

We came here for tea as we were staying in the hotel opposite and it was simple pub food. Lasagna, burgers and things like that. Quick and easy, paid at the bar and had the food delivered to the table

Popular pub with a wide range of drinks including unlimited coffee/tea refills. Meals are moderately priced & tasty. Can be very busy though the facility to order from your table is great & saves a queue. Service comes with a smile too!

My last review was about how dirty the pub is and the fact you are greeted by dirty tables covered in beer rings, food, salt and pepper and empty glasses left on them for ages. Well nothing has changed - shame as don't understand why a manager would follow up on my previous review and then nothing has changed - see my pics!

Tables never get cleaned, spilt beer, salt, food etc always greet you when you sit down at a table!! empty glasses are left on the tables for ages. Staff mull about at slugs pace and clearly don't want to be there. The whole place is in need of a deep clean and then to be kept on top of. I'm sure if environmental health where to take swab samples off tables etc they would close the place down. Dust and cobwebs everywhere!! I used to eat there but have given up on the place - sort it out please!

First thing I noticed was their 5 excellent hygiene rating, however, must only apply to kitchens as most of the vacant tables hadn’t been cleaned and the floors near the entrance needed sorted as covered in bits of food. Staff were pleasant and chatty . Didn’t eat here as just called in before catching the train home. Been in better Spoons but a little housekeeping effort would have made all the difference.

The room we booked was awful, chair arms all ripped and sponge handing out. The staff(young kids) kept getting all the drink orders wrong and also tried to over charge on multiple occasions. We got told for cold buffet food it was 6pound something and for hot and cold it would be 9pound something. So they picked the 9pound option for 40 people. The food was absolutely awful and appalling. One bowl of chips, 3 small trays of dreadful sandwiches. And a few other crappy things. I most definitely not be going there again. Discussing place

We visited on a Friday evening expecting a busy pub/restaurant but were surprised by the lack of visitors. The food was exceptional and the choice of food was great. We have visited many times and never been disappointed. A lovely place to visit.
