There’s Plenty of Wetherspoons out there, so many within walking distance in most places. But you can’t fault The Lord Wilson for its atmosphere, staff and everything else. You rarely get any trouble and when you do the staff sort it out. Table service is fast and accurate, much better than at some other spoons (Becketts Bank for example). Bar staff are always ready to serve and are friendly, and understanding when you can’t hear them if it’s busy, which it usually is, which isn’t a complaint! But the absolute cream of the crop is Gareth and his weekly pub quiz. We haven’t missed one in about two years now, and have won a few times too. It’s been the highlight of the week many times and we all look forward to it. The price is reasonable and he always draws in a great crowd with his banter and fun themes. It would be a lie if I said I wouldn’t go to another Wetherspoons as it won’t compare, but whenever I visit another spoons I can’t help but compare it to The Lord Wilson

The service was really fast. However, the food was pretty disgusting. I ordered a chicken burger and chips. The chicken had a strange taste like burnt grease and the chips were hard and tasted weird too. All in all, it was pretty disappointing considering the food isn’t even that cheap anymore with this costing me about £8.

One of the few Wetherspoons with music playing which makes for a pleasant experience. Staff are attentive, meal and drinks served promptly. My sirloin steak was cooked perfectly, but was insufficiently rested, so it was too tough. It was returned and the meal replaced with another steak which was perfectly cooked and presented. My wife's curry was of usual presentation and standard and very tasty. An enjoyable couple of hours spent in a convivial atmosphere.

Went for breakfast had a small one which consisted of 1 bacon, 1 Lincolnshire sausage, hash brown, fried egg and beans. This was 4.99 but you don’t get drink or toast but I thought great price. However the food was cold, the beans were cheap nasty tasting , the bacon was chewy , I took one bite out of the sausage but I couldn’t eat anymore as was not very nice. The hash brown full of grease.The only positive I have was my egg yolk was soft. So i basically paid £4.99 to eat a mouthful of a sausage and bit of bacon plus the egg yolk. Not worth the money. Yes you expect cheap when you don’t pay a lot but you add the drink and toast that’s another £3.00 and you can get a decent breakfast elsewhere for that price which wouldn’t be cheap , nasty , greasy or cold

Let's be honest, folks. Wetherspoons might not be Michelin-starred, but for a good night out that's easy on the wallet, it's hard to beat. And that goes double for their legendary pub quizzes! This past Thursday, I ventured into the wonderful world of Spoons trivia, and let me tell you, it was a riot. First off, the food. I went for the classic hot fudge brownie . Bargain price, perfectly cooked, and left me feeling orasmicly well. Service was spot on too, friendly staff who didn't bat an eyelid at my multiple refills (diet starts next week, definitely). Now, onto the main event: the quiz itself. Our host, Gareth, was a character to say the least. A walking flamboyance in a Hawaiian shirt, he delivered the questions with a wink and a nudge, throwing in some truly fruity jokes that had us in stitches (just you wait until the round on British monarchs – Gareth has a way with puns that would make your history teacher weep). Here's the thing: my knowledge of general trivia is about as deep as a kiddie pool. But hey, that's half the fun of a Spoons quiz! Between Gareth's hilarious commentary, the competitive spirit of the other teams (one table got very into it!), and the sheer joy of getting a random question right (thanks, childhood dinosaur obsession!), I had an absolute blast. Sure, I might not have walked away with the top prize (alas, my knowledge of 18th-century cheese production remains sketchy), but that didn't matter one bit. The Wetherspoons quiz is all about a good laugh, a bit of friendly competition, and maybe learning a random fact or two along the way. Throw in some fantastically priced pub grub and top-notch service,and you've got yourself a winning night out. So, next time you're looking for a fun and affordable way to spend an evening, skip the fancy cocktail bars and head down to your local Spoons. You might just surprise yourself with your trivia prowess (or lack thereof, but who cares?), and you're guaranteed to have a night filled with laughter, good food, and maybe even a Gareth-induced existential crisis about cheese (don't ask, just go experience it for yourself!).

Went to Yorkshire on a day trip and stopped at The lord Wilson for breakfast as we made our way through Huddersfield. Harold Wilson was a two-time Prime Minister of the UK and an MP for thirty-eight years. He was born in Huddersfield, and it was always his dream to have a Public House named in his honour after his death. Possibly. Up stepped the Wetherspoons chain, as always. They took over a building that looks like a cross between High Street chemist and a Job Centre, turned it into a pub selling cheap food and ale, name it in Harold’s honour and the rest is history. And so, we were at The Wilson for lunch on a wet Wednesday. A couple of curries, a boneless chicken basket and an Ultimate burger were ordered. We waited... The pub wasn’t overly busy, but a steady trade was passing through. Wetherspoons can range in cleanliness from ‘Spick and span’ right through to ‘Skip’. And the Wilson hit the above average mark. Only the odd chip had been ground into the carpet and our table had been recently wiped clean. And I mean just before we arrived and not simply that week. Our server was polite and cheery and delivered our food with a smile. The curries were very good indeed, though, as ever the poppadoms were a touch on the greasy side. A small complaint that barely merits a mention. The chicken was delicious, so our daughter insisted though the chips weren’t as hot as they could have been. And nor were the ones with the burger, according to our lad who devoured the burger like he’d been on a hunger strike complaining about the conditions in our home. The food was good enough, the pub was clean enough and the overall experience was good. Harold Wilson would be delighted.
