The Lord Wimborne in Poole

Excellent customer service from Nathan the other day. Fast, cheery and helpful.

Cheap and cheerful. Exactly what you expect and want from a Spoons

Its Wetherspoons but inexpensive and simply good.Coffee €1.77 Refill free.Food simple but good.Loud but entertaining.

Quick service,clean table,polite staff

Breakfast in the morning, as usual with all Weatherspoons, the beans were cold. I would recommend the pizza.

Great Quiz on mondays - continuing on from the Quay - its always a laugh, another big bonus is the guest ciders - as a member of CAMRA deifintely a fan!

There were plenty of tables, great decor. Best prices in town 👍

Food good with plenty of choice .

A lovely pub with a huge beer garden & a weekly quiz every Monday!

Terrible food. Avoid. I wouldnt eat here if you paid me.

Typical Wetherspoons. Good value, decent choices and convenient location.

It was difficult to find a table as it was very very busy. Service were efficient but due to the number of people inside it was difficult as staff seemed stretched.

Disappointed to find the nice wetherspoons on the quay now closed. This one isn't worth a visit unless you're desperate for cheaper food and drink ! It's dark, tatty, not a pleasant place .....a real shame, and we're big fans of a Spoons ! 😄

Tried coming in with a service dog and was told there not allowed in even tho it says on a sign on the door that service dogs are allowed. Rude staff. Will never be coming here 0again

Bit like a crèche. Cheap beer and average food.

Excellent breakfast and speedy service

Management wouldn’t provide hot water to warm our baby bottle up

Friendly pub in Poole town historic library building 👷‍♂️ 😀

Nor been down for a few months and noticed a big improvement in cleanliness. Tables were cleared quickly and cleaned. Had a good breakfast. Staff seemed much more cheerful. Good visit.

Good food Good beers Good service

Great weatherspoons. Excellent service.

Had high hopes for this place as it has just been refurbished. It used to be dark, sticky and dreary. Unfortunately although a bit cleaner now, they haven't brightened the place up at all and it's still very dark and dreary inside. The floors aren't quite so sticky but that will come I'm sure. The food and staff are ok although they seem to struggle when it gets busy.

Servicer at the bar didn't care about our daughters severe food allergy. He didn't bother to ask if we had one and when we mentioned he still didn't ask what it was.

3 adults and 1 kid's meal with drinks

Chips are very tasty and have been a few times now with my family had a nice meal and free drinks with a meal for £10.50.Can't argue at that this time had all day brunch. 100%

What can I say, it's a wetherspoons so food and service will always be fine, but it is starting to get a but expensive, which I expect.

Food seems to be rationed. Half a rasher of bacon ☹️for breakfast. Ice-cream about half amount of any other Wetherspoons. Must be trying to pay for refurbishment. Now go to Bournemouth Wetherspoons, less screaming kids as well.

The staff are generally very nice but if Asda made pubs this pub would be it.

Absolutly appauling, my wife and I with our 2 week old baby went in for a bite to eat, the place was busy and the staff were very ignorant and not very helpful. The wife and I decided we wanted to try their new gourmet burger they do, the wife ordered the cheese one and I had the bbq one, when the staff member brought them out they just looked like cheap burgers you would get from a supermarket and when he handed me mine it only had about 7 or 8 chips on. So my wife paid about £12 each for something that I wouldnt even pay £5 for. Will not be ordering those burgerz again.

Decent food and drink, with more vegan options than you might expect. Helpful and friendly staff. Good value.

As a mid Christmas shop, stop, the pub hit the spot! Fast service, friendly servers - thank you!

Typical "Spoons". Good quality simple food and drinks at unbeatable prices. Refurbished recently.

Good for families and food is reasonable price

I have visited twice now for breakfast. Everything was what we requested. I did find it amusing that you only get 15 baked beans per plate. I mentioned that there must be a shortage. It was ignored.

Not the best wetherspoons I have been too its ok and wouldn't say I highly recommend here

Since the refurbishment this is a lovely place to eat drink and be merry. The atmosphere is wonderful and the food is amazing could not fault it. We moved seats over three times to get a comfy booth but in that time I lost my phone!!! Panic ensued but luckily for me a very kind member of the public had handed it in, what a massive relief it was as you can imagine!! The manager and all his staff were very very helpful and because my phone had been handed in the manager was able to return it to me. It totally made our day. I would like to thank them all for their help. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful place to put your feet up and enjoy a very relaxing atmosphere plus the food is delicious. Many thanks again to all the staff for all their help in returning my phone and making our visit one we’ll remember 😊

Very busy, but great service and food was great.

Wetherspoons is easy, cheap and cheerful. It is very much a hit n miss at this place or any spoons for that matter when it comes to food. I usually go for the chicken bites or the southern fried wrap as i know its usually decent. I thought i would try the "new" sharwarma wrap, very dissapointed. Told the waitress about it and she didnt seem to care that it came out with hardly anything inside and just said thats how it comes, then left us to it. Measley amount of lettuce and literally a sprinkle of shredded thigh chicken. Tasted okay. I bought some chicken bites to add inside to bulk it out. (Added a picture of it opened up, i literally took a bite) Never ordering that again and will just stick to the chicken nuggets next time.

First visit, very clean, very pleasant and reasonably priced meals. Very nice outside erea , situated not far from main shops or seafront. Weatherspoons, all ways worth a vist.

You get what you get. It's a spoons

We stopped for lunch before heading back to London. We found a table but had to ask for it to be cleared and then we were asked if we wanted it wiped clean !! Standard Weatherspoons pub. We ordered but struggled to pay as till crashed. We were then taken to another till but there were still issues with our order but eventually we paid and gor our food

We met with an ex-neighbour. After a coffee ordered some lunch, an all-day brunch , small ham egg and chips for my wife and a Christmas dinner for me. Arrived fairly quickly and everything OK until near the end of my meal, something tasted funny. Then in the evening had severe diarrhea which lasted a couple of days... Went to the doctors and she prescribed food poisoioning. Can't precisely attribute it to that, but someone else has had a meal that tasted funny but spat it out without any dire consequences.

Looks nice after the refurbishment. More light in the pub. Not so dark.

Had run out of many items on the menu

Great food and drink at very good price

Lovely food, good service lost a star as they need to wipe the tables more often!

Great refurbishment, however we were disappointed. We could not order via the app so proceeded to the bar, speed of service was slow and the server wasn’t particularly welcoming. We ordered ham, egg and chips (lovely) and a bbq chicken “melt” (not so lovely!) I think some basic spec training is required in the kitchen to meet customer expectations.

Nice place, amazing food and good atmosphere 😁 Love it

Visited The Lord Wimborne a Weather spoons Pub... right in the Centre of Poole town used to be The Library back in the day. We had lunch and drinks. Lots of tables to choose from and order your chosen meal at the bar and pay. Wheelchair friendly and disabled toilet on ground floor. Food was good and reasonably priced also drinks well priced. Many meals included drinks check menu when you want to order. Worth a visit if in Poole.

Popped in to the Lord Wimborne this morning for the large breakfast.Quite a long queue to place order,this was due to only one person behind the bar taking the orders. Not a very long wait for the food to arrive and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of food on the plate,very good value for money I’d say,costing around £6.90. Now this is where everything took a nosedive.After finishing my breakfast I decided to go outside with my mug of tea for a cigarette.As I went outside I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.Empty dirty beer glasses,some half full of flat beer,dirty coffee mugs and on one table a pile of damp chips,not on a plate but just dumped on top of the table,it looked as if there had been a party outside the night before and nobody could be bothered to clear the mess up,it looked disgusting. I then,before leaving went to the gents toilets only to find more rubbish on the floor there. I don’t know but maybe the Lord Wimborne is in need of a few cleaners as well as more bar staff. Everything really was ok just until I went outside,and then it all came tumbling down.

Really nice place to have dinner. Good value for money

850k for a refit couldn't see where the money was spent 🤔. Second best spoons in Poole

Was a busy lunchtime and we visited in a group of 7 for food. We found a table, ordered food via the app and it was all on the table within 20 mins. Super quick food and all cooked well - no complaints there. The restaurant was really messy though, almost all of the tables needed to be cleared but we just took all plates up to the bar that were on pur table when we arrived and that didn't really bother us. Will definitely go back as 7 people all had a main meal and a drink for £70 - amazing value

Omg best experience ever!! Josh the cool bar manager dude was hilarious and made sure we had a great time 😉

Extremely disappointed after a trip out from Salisbury to enjoy a spoons that had been recommended to us to find there was no real ale on sale and the barman then tried to fob me off with drink I hadn't ordered so on asking for a refund an extremely non plus supervisor finally made the refund after a sarcastic remark when I said this wasn't the service I expected from a wetherspoons establishment

Quite the innocuous pub tucked away in plain site - I think I walked past it twice before realising what it was! Anyway, a typically organised (and clean) spoons over one level wit h plenty of space to wander about in. It's good inside and I think the entrance (at least one of them) was good for wheelchair access. The breakfast was superb as always as was the wake up coffee that was essential at tat time of day. The staff were wonderful and funny (had a bit of chat with one of the bar staff - excellent chap) and the sneaky early Guinness was brilliant. Thanks guys (and gals)

Khalan is a lovely waitress, she’s so polite and sweet.

I visited just the other day and loved it. The woman that served me called Gina was so loving and polite. Making the experience worth visiting and would go again. Gina also made the best drinks :) 10/10

Great, but not as great as the quay

Great Breakfast definitely value for money hence it was busy and Breakfast came out pretty rapid too

This was just for a quick pint. Comfortable surroundings and friendly staff. The beer was good. It is on my list to visit again, and discover more of the history of a former library turned "Spoons!"

Food was good, but limited for gluten-free available that day. Busy but pleasant atmosphere. Will revisit next time.

This place doesn’t need a refurbishment it needs closing down

Value for money, typical larger Wetherspoons

It's a weatherspoon, expect to queue to get seated or served as there seems to be far to many customers and very few staff . Even if you just want a drink expect to queue

I am very pleased that they had a Simple Curry option. I am taking tablets that turn fat and oil into diarrhea. The last time I ate poppadoms, it wasn't a pleasant experience. No naan bread? And how much do you save? It is not the same. £12.55 compare with £10.31 Add naan bread: Can't do! Meal rating 3 down from 4. I am a hard man. I should be cutting out the alcohol too.

Undergoing a refurbishment at the moment, but still open .

Very dark inside food nothing shout about

Food is below par Service is massively below par. Cracks what you make it

Sadly way understaffed & staff were not happy tho couldn't blame them never bn to such an understaffed JD pub

New management needed ? Beer garden a disgrace!!! Service slow due to bad management organisation, not the staff !! I have run bars and this place is dirty and unorganised!! One year on and nothing changed ha ha bird poo on tables and chairs outside !! Change the manager .....

A nicely laid out Witherspoon pub only 123 stairs to the toilet 🚽

Visited today for lunch.lovely fish.chips Peas..friendly fast service. The pub could do with better lighting as very dingy.

For pub food it was good not always the case

Ceiling was leaking whilst we were waiting for food. Above us were the toilets. We diverted our meals to our new table but our drinks never arrived. After we finished we had to ask for then and found them sitting at the end of the bar. Not the best experience

Was ok nothing special food service was good though.

In for Breakfast 2 occasions on or stay only one girl on very good and Hot plates

I am becoming somewhat of a regular here purely because the outdoor area is so chill. Inside is fine too, not that I've really checked it out other than the bar and the gents but yeah nah this place is alright mate. In the recommended tabs it only lists food. I recommend beer for this particular establishment however there are no options to recommend that, only food. £4.22/pint for flat punk ipa

The cocktails were excellent and affordable. The atmosphere was the best part. I would suggest having your drink outside. There were different varieties of cocktails.

Good staff and nice locals to chat and have a laugh with.

Everything ok. Food is above average for the price. And it's good that you get a free pint with your meal

Great hand pulled beer and excellent company 👌

It's Wetherspoons 90% of the food is the same in all of this chains pubs this one needs more staff sometimes the foods cold sometimes the foods warm very seldom hot but it is what it is and it's cheap . With very weird shaped eggs

Nice Spoon's. Had breakfast here and both coffee machines working 👍

Even though the pub gets really busy, the staff are helpful. Food is served quite quickly.

Spacious spoons in Poole Town center lovely outside seating area good service

So noisy but ok for a Pitstop, staff could do with working a bit harder do not wish to see all the dirty glasses piling up when we are meant to be socialising and eating, very lazy

Banned for asking for a water, stole drinks out for our hand

Always freezing cold inside. Not a comfortable place.

Very good place to have dinner. Excellent customer service from their staff

Ale real .ale still low price

The woman with the glasses, fringe and red hair was rude and seemed like an unapproachable woman. She kept telling our group to leave because one had too much to drink even though we was sat outside and the rest of us were fine. She could of said it in a nicer way. I guess the food tasted good and the cocktails were nice though shame about the grumpy woman ruining our night bombarding us all of the time.

Lovely dinner ,very quick to serve ,really good to order at the table

Another spoonaroonys, good value for money,

It's ok. A Spoons. Cleaner than some. Sometimes other conversations are a bit loud 😂

We were in twice in one day. Visited Poole for the festival. Food was ok, could have been better.

have no idea how to cook a steak(might've been microwaved), ask for medium rare and get well done, sent it back and got a MAYBE medium at best. chefs need to go back to culinary school and poor waiters have to take the blame for it, never coming back

Great setting. Lots of outdoor seating in the sun.

First order of food had to be sent back as only served warm, not hot. Waitress was very good, and provided a second order which was fine. Only 1 coffee machine available, but was only giving half cups. Reported this but they were unable to rectify. We use Weather spoon's quite a lot. But not impressed tonight.

Foods okay for pub food but getting served at the bar even when quiet can be slow
