The George - JD Wetherspoon in Spelthorne

I go to the pub regularly and have always enjoyed the veggie breakfast Over the last few months they have changed the sausages to an inferior brand and today I had the small veggie breakfast, which has shrunk dramatically from it's previous self. Bit disappointing, all about margins of course

This pub was OK for a quick.bite with the family on a shopping trip. We sat upstairs and there was only one person working on the floor, many tables were still dirty and the service was a bit slow..but the service was very friendly and the food was decent.

Looking like it needs a refurbish

Super spacious pub. Service is always very good. Food and drink prices are reasonable. Toilets are cleaned regularly. Highly recommend.

Excellent pub with a wide range of good beer and good food. For me it's fun to drink a different Ale every time.

As you would expect from this type of establishment. The place could do with a damn good clean, the booths are filthy and unkempt. The full English breakfast was reasonably priced and was nice enough, and the refill of your tea and coffee was free as long as your cup/mug with you to the machine otherwise, you will be asked to pay again.

Large breakfast £6.59 includes 3 hash browns that i totally dislike. They refuse to exchange for something else or deduct cost of them. ie charge me £6 and keep the hash browns. So they will now be left on my plate and go into the bin.

Cheap and cheerful. I go here as a pitstop with work colleagues and it is always good. Good selection of beer and decent food for frozen. Parking is a short walk away but it does get very busy in the late afternoons.

If you’re just after value for money, The George is a resounding 5 stars. The quality they provide versus the price is an incredible achievement. Likewise, if you want to loiter with a book, paper, laptop, here gets top marks with unlimited free refills on the £1.56 tea/coffee and plenty of space to hide away. The reason I can’t give five stars is just that the breakfasts, although very good, are often closer to very warm than piping hot which I guess is a function of having to serve so many people. This contrasts with Hobbs cafe a few metres down the road where the food is piping hot when served up (although being much smaller and without free tea refills , I wouldn’t recommend it to while away a couple of hours because I’d be conscious I’m taking up table space) Lot of time for Spoons though.

Got my breakfast last my friends had almost finished theirs, not much taste if I'm honest. Unfortunately had a loud and foul mouthed lad sitting behind me, which really spoilt it for me. Sorry to say that I won't be going there again.

It's cheap. You wouldn't take your wife/girlfriend there to impress her. But it's such good value you can tolerate the variable service: sometimes food or drink arrives almost before you order it, and sometimes it takes half an hour and turns up cold. The staff obviously work very hard but still are very friendly. I go mid-week once a month or so with a group of male friends.

Poor food. The burger was luke warm. Tasted OK, not the best but far better than the onion rings, which were very cold like they had been stood over 10 mins. Not a good experience

We stopped for breakfast, it's a weatherspoon so I knew what it was like, nothing special

I didn't have a flat pint all day

Spoons same food and same drink everywhere you go. Classic atmosphere and toilets are million miles away. Has a nice outdoors seating area with table service.

Great selection beer and spirits, good price

Lively wetherspoons in the end of the high street. Lovely staff and nice food for the cost.

Good variety of drinks nice atmosphere. Great deals on drinks and food

Typical Wetherspoons. Cheap drinks Busy night Good staff Only visited for drinks, so can't comment on food. Toilets nice and clean.

Great atmosphere, drink prices very reasonable. Garden is nice when the sun is shining.

Friendly atmosphere good service

Standard Weatherspoons experience.

Currently closed from October 10th 2024 for refurb.

The food was good. It would have been better if it was hot and luke warm. We went in the evening and it was really busy but it felt more like a drinking than eating pub, in my opinion but there was a nice atmosphere. Breakfast was good, but they really could do with more than one coffee machine, the queue was quite long. However the staff were friendly and hardworking

Generic Wetherspoons, clean and fast service.

Great location not far from thorpe park staff was very friendly even gave us take away cup for our beers 😀

Cheap and cheerful, excellent breakfast

Excellent breakfast, good atmosphere inside.

Typical spoons, nice food & good beer

The food and service were excellent! The service was impressively fast, and the food was delicious. The ambience is pleasant, with both booths and tables available for seating. The drinks were also great, with a wide selection of food and beverages to choose from. Overall, a fantastic experience.

Great affordable prices . We found the George clean and tidy.

brilliant spoons, very fast service

A large Wetherspoons, with plenty of seating at ground and 1st floor. Cosy booths on ground floor. Quick table service via their App. Usual good value food and drink. Today had a small Breakfast for £2.99, and limitless hot drinks for £1.56.

The best place to visit for food and drinks which provides all the right conditions for sb to enjoy respecting your money providing the same time really good quality

Made a point of smoking in the garden 😂

It's tradition for me and my friends to hit up this place on Staines movie nights every once in awhile when I do leave the house. There are fancier places, sure, but if you're looking for a cheap pint, wine, cocktail pitchers to share and shots, Spoons does the job. 👍🏻

Stopped here for breakfast before going to thorpe Park, happy staff, nice food, good price 👍

Sunday evening visit. Pretty good food, friendly service and good prices.

Good Food served in a timely manner, the atmosphere is a bit awkward at times especially during crowds.

I think it's quite disgusting that they put cameras in both the men's and women's tickets.

Two bars one upstairs as well. A busy spoons on a Friday afternoon bit warm downstairs air conditioning excellent upstairs on a hot day very fast food service very attentive bar and floor staff ✨

A real good choice of Ales from only £1.99

Good food and excellent staff. Recommended.

Where to start, we use to use the George when we lived in Egham 6 years ago and it was wonderful. Visiting Friend for the weekend and decided to have breakfast at the spoon (we use the William Henry in Weymouth all the time and its as fantastic as a spoon can get) Anyway, order on the app, 15min later the drink arrive, slammed down on the table and the server left without a word, we had to call someone else as these were not or drink anyway. We finally got our drinks one was missing so had to send the guy to collect yhe full order. A further 20mins when our food arrive (it wasn't that busy) some plates had missing items, some had extra items and the baked bean we cold (I touched them as soon as they arrived) finally got all the components of our food delivered, so I asked for the manager and stated to him the issues, he wasn't the least bit interested and without a reply walked away. So would I recommend here NO Does it deserve 1 star No, but cannot give zero So will not visit the George in Staines again 😕

Lovely pub, reasonable food & drink prices. Def recommend if ur on a budget

Very disappointed. Went in there today with some friends. A charming service lady walked past me. All I done was to pass complementary words to her. Nothing derogatory. Then to be asked one side . Which I presumed to be the manager to say the lady felt offended. Well I'm sorry if staff can't except being complemented in a industry, such as hospitality. Either they need training or it's not a job for them. Yet when me and a friend went to the bar for a round of drinks. We were served by a girl who . If you don't mind me saying. Completely had the charm of a 16th century witch who is about to be burnt on a stake. Just before leaving the premises. I told the manager, who originally called me to one side . And expressed my feelings about his bartender and her service of quality (NOT). NO got nothing not even a raised eye brow or an apology. Yet passing a lady staff a compliment. Is not a done thing. I have good values in life. And do believe in the age of chivalry .

Just had two of Weatherspoons 8oz steak menu, it was wonderful cooked to perfection. Highly recommended together with a Merlot Wine. Go upstairs not so busy and great A/C keeping you nice and cool in today's temperature 32c.

I like fish&chips and the taste is amazing for the price and lots of sauces as well

Tim should visit this so called spoons. Visited this place 2day. ordered 1 pint of fosters 1 pint of stella staff requested assistance because she had to pull 2 beers. When paying staff was more interested in talking to each other, No thank you for parting £7.00 nothing.So I said thank you your welcome,well when I went back to the bar both staff walked away from me leaving 1 bar member asking are you being seen 2 which I replied no as your colleagues have walked away I must say staff attitudes are rather bad in this spoons.Dont visit this place

The food was decent however Lester from GTA was incredible rude and had no table service manners

Really nice spoons, decent food, although Lester from Gta 5 was very rude, slamming and spilling drinks down onto the table

As happy as I am to see Lester from GTA V find work, he is a very poor waiter.

The dude who looked like Lester from GTA 5 (glasses/black shirt) service was very rude and he was smashing glasses in the kitchen... Very unprofessional, but what do you expect from someone who looks like a video game character

Disgusting door staff abusing people as they leave as you expect from witherspoons employ any drags of life I have videos and will be posting them

We ordered small plates as we didn't want to eat too much. Large plates arrived so lots of food was wasted. Eggs overdone on brunch and scampi tasteless. Very disappointed that Wetherspoons wastes food like this.

Food was decent and very reasonably priced, but that was all ruined when a foul mouthed member of staff verbally abused and tried to intimidate my wife, all because another member of staff told him to do his job and serve people in the upstairs bar, I fully understand today was hot and the last place any of us want to be is working in a busy pub, but if that’s the case maybe you should find a different job.

One of my fave 'Spoons' . Staff always helpful and service generally pretty quick.

It's Wetherspoons. What do you expect? Pint of lager for £4 when other pubs are charging £6 is a redeeming feature, as is the service you get when you use the app.

It's a wetherspoons. What do you expect?

This place is perfect for grabbing a beer and a bite to eat. I didn't rate it 5 stars because it's a bit dated.

The bouncer policy of messing around those who don't drink alcohol, have bottled water with them, yet want to purchase food and drink is bad enough. Now you refuse to extend kitchen hours by 3 minutes because the web ordering system turns a 1 minute activity into a 15 minute ordeal of slow page loads, a never-ending attempt to take payment, warning that you may have ordered already when attempting to pay by a different method, and waiting frustratedly behind others at the bar in order to get answers. I'll take my money elsewhere from now on.

Absolutely by far the worst experience from start to finish when ordering the bar staff were not listening so when the food arrived items were missing food arrived cold wasn’t offered and condiments to go with it either! The sausages served are vile even my 3 year old wouldn’t eat them I would definitely not recommend eating here it may be value for money to some but the standards are below average as for the mega mix grill shocking all the meat chewy and riddled with fat avoid avoid avoid

Relaxed atmosphere and varied menu at a very reasonable prices that enabled everyone in our large party to select something they liked.

Friday fish and chips is my favourite here! Nice beer, good stuff and nice atmosphere.

Cheap and cheerful you get what you pay for here but the basic food does represent good value for money. A good range of real ales. Service is average.Downstairs gets very crowded and noisy . We dined upstairs which was much calmer and more civilised Toilets are on the first floor

Good food and drink, good price!

HORRENDOUS experience. Three of us came in at 11am Saturday morning and ordered 3 large breakfasts. The normal wait for food is under 10 mins. It was busy but after 30 minutes we asked how long it might be as we’d never waited that long before. They just said it was busy and soon. The coffee machine broke at one point too. Two breakfasts came out after 50 minutes. 50!!! We expected the third to appear imminently, but at 55 minutes I asked a passing waitress if our third breakfast was coming and mentioned how long we’d waited. Again, told soon and was given no apology. We saw other breakfasts being brought out to tables around us that had not been waiting anything like as long. We reached AN HOUR and no sign of the third breakfast so my friend went and asked for a refund as we had to leave to catch a train. Again, no apology from the manager doing the refund for the ridiculous wait for food and that one of our party left after an hour without even eating. Zero customer service skills from anybody. Still dumbfounded they couldn’t get a breakfast out within 60 minutes.

Fine typical example of Wetherspoons pubs. Normally the Wetherspoons breakfast is great value and tasty. But today's offering was slow in coming and cold when it arrived.

50 minute wait for spoons breakfast is a disgrace. No Communication from staff that there was going to be a wait. Not even an apology when the food came. Very strange behaviour. Wouldn’t recommend having a breakfast here. Understaffed and customer service is lacking.

Waited 50 minutes for breakfast with no communication from any staff. No apologies for the wait time when food finally arrived.

I got a pint for £3 here (may 2024) which I feel like hasn't happened to me since 2014. I'll be back at every opportunity.

Busy at the weekend, great value

Good quality food and ale at a reasonable price.

Very poor table service drink got slammed down on the table no glass or ice as it is supposed to come with. Tried calling the bar person back to ask but she was gone like a shot absolute rubbish.

Waiting 15 min for cocktail o.O while other beeing served instantly>.> Nah thanks never again

Just moved to the area nice cheap pint down near the river, Staff helpful and quick serving!

You go to the bar and wait to be served only to be told its not on the menu today we ran out.. if you know its a popular dish order more stock ?

Long wait for food, understandable, but to get most items cold was horrible, that said the black pudding was cooked perfectly, yet mentioned the food temp and that the eggs weren't cooked properly (covered in uncooked egg white) the staff member said that they had finished breakfast and nothing else could be done

Quick service, cheap ales. Although one of the tables outside the front entrance is not fit for purpose. Value for money. Typical spoons.

I can't rate the food as I never had any but definitely the staff friendly

Affordable and yummy at the same time, nice atmosphere.

Ordered drinks which didn’t come when i brought it up to the manager I got kicked out. Wouldn’t recommend

Friendly and sociable atmosphere, will visit again

Food is always good, and on saturday nights the atmosphere is amazing, loads of people enjoy pints and food and watching live sports

Lovely food and always a fresh pint.

Kitchens were closed due to refurbishment, but no notification

Cheap pub grub and booze, loved it

Amazing fish an chips perfectly cooked, crisp light batter. Perfect chips and peas Fast polite amd efficient service. As always beer was excellent, fresh and no cloudy.. Nothing to fault.I don't know how they do it for the price. Went to a Youngs a few days ago, High price and poor quality. Always choose Spoons over others in future. Coffee was really good too with free refill. What's not to like? I can afford better but why pay more?

Being a Wetherspoons pub there is always a great selection of beers and some of them are very cheap too, not something you find too much these days. The food is pretty affordable too and not bad either. Friday and Saturday nights are pretty busy as one can imagine meaning it's difficult to find a seat. I'll be back soon to try a few different beers without spending lots of cash!

It is very much what you would expect from a whetherspoons, the food is always a welcome relief if you've been on a heavy session, but it's not fine dining. The service can either be done through the app or at the bar, all depends on what time of day it is to how long you'll wait for your food. The beer is kept okay and the prices are always good. The atmosphere is what you would expect from somewhere with reasonable prices and the decor follows all whetherspoons. It does have some lovely history on the walls of Staines and was probably easier to read than the Staines museum. In my mind a spoons has a time and a place and this one is no different. They sell turbo shandys. As and adult I can tell you to they are a mistake

Nice warm and homely 'Spoons pub

Best bar in Staines 😍 Very cheap prices, very good quality price relation. I love ordering three small dishes for 15 euros. Always full of people, that’s always a good sign!

Affordable beers, good pub grub . One of the staff (Callum) was exceptionally helpfull and attentive 10/10 👍🏻

Or order (for 4) consisted of 3 good dishes and one that was very poor . Thee Gourmet 8oz Sirloin steak was 30% gristle. It was a shame as the person who ordered it - it was their birthday . Hopefully the kitchen noticed the gristle returning on the plate and made a note of it because it wasn't cheap compared to other items on the menu. (£14.54).

Good value drinks - alcoholic and non alcoholic. Clean and tidy. Refillable coffee. £1.50p

I had the all day brunch and a pint, ordered on the app. The drink and food came in good time. The pint was cold and the food was hot. The staff were friendly. All good 👌🏻

a great discovery. Very pleasant environment and great service. I will visit again

Loved the selection of real ale, Ruddles County for $1.77 a pint is a steal. Dinner was good, fish n chips and pie and chips, not gourmet but very nice

Excellent service and it was very busy

Ordered on the app, good was served quickly and was hot. Nice atmosphere.
