Bad Service Attitude This morning, I ordered two toast breakfasts at your establishment, but unfortunately, both toasts were burnt (photos attached). I raised this issue with a waitress—she had dark brown hair tied in a ponytail and was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt. She told me that the toasts are always like this and there was nothing she could do. As a regular customer, I’ve always been satisfied with the service at your shop, but today’s experience was disappointing. I believe when a customer raises an issue, an apology should be the first response, not dismissal.

Had a good breakfast here, serving staff were friendly. Last time we were here was a few years ago, that time we asked for the table to be cleaned, that didn't happen, same happened this time the staff cleared the table, but never wiped it clean. This is the second time we have been here in 5 years and second time our table has not been cleaned. The last time this happened I emailed the head office and received a cheeky email reply from them, so I won't be emailing their customer services again.

I would like to share our experience, Which wasn’t great unfortunately. Order traditional breakfast ! Staff member bring our food and it was ok until i take toast and under was half hash brown looks like left overs. Shocked. Ask manager why is that the answer was cook in fryer this how it is and the she told to me don t talk to me like that so rude and not polite at all. Lady manager told she will bring 1 new hash brow but I requested to replace full plate with new breakfast in plate this was refused by duty manager lucky get money refund. Lady in duty manager position should know better how to deal in situation like that.

I have just stood at the bar, which was by no means busy, for 10 to 15 minutes. The young girl serving was going as fast as she probably could. She then served 3 customers who had arrived after me. As I left I spoke to the duty manager, explaining my displeasure of their service, who shrugged her shoulders, turned away and made a half hearted apology. This used to be one of the best pubs in Livingston, JD Wetherspoons get this place sorted or you will loose more than my custom.

Busy Saturday lunchtime so staff were doing as well as they could. However the food wasn't great, none of it was particularly hot despite the plates being roasting, the chips could have done with a few minutes longer in the pan and the sausages were average with not much flavour. The best bit was the black pudding!

I am here often, whenever I have been shopping in Livingston. Many people look down on Spoons, but it does what it says on the tin. It is cheap and d cheerful. Spoons can have poor service sometime, but this is one of the better ones. Service is usually fine, though sometimes app orders are prioritised over the bar, but once fixed, they catch up soon. The service in this Spoons is definitely one of the better ones, and the staff are always polite and friendly. Food is nothing special, but decent enough. The steaks are good value, compared to eateries round the area. The food special, but does the job. Yes, a lot of it is partially pre-prepared, but that is the case in most chain restaurants, and many others too. Here is where this one has let itself down though, and it is a recent event. It was closed for a few days for re flooring. And it reopened there had also been a reorganisation. Now there are too many tables and chairs. They are crammed together, so there is little to no personal space. The waiting staff down well to navigate through the maze of tables and narrow gaps. Sadly, it also means, if you are in a wheelchair or have limited mobility, it will now be a real struggle for you. Before it was not always straightforward, but was manageable, as there were still a few accessible tables. I am not sure this is the case now. If you have a pushchair, especially given their size now, it will also be a real struggle.

We had a great meal in the Newyearfield I had a notion for a bar grill but its been off the menu for a while now so I had the fish with chips and it was as good as any other restaurants I've eaten in but the price makes this an easy choice where we would rather eat out and the beer prices they can't be beaten. Top restaurant, top food and top service. We would highly recommend JD Wetherspoons for a good meal and the breakfast is tops.

Very disappointing 😞..I used to visit and get a lovely big oval plate FULL of decently cooked food but this is my 1st visit in a while for a meal and boy, we're we disappointed. Both meals were well overcooked - fish and chips and the other meal was a southern fried chicken wrap and chips..the chips were overcooked as well as the chicken from the wrap? The fish took the biscuit though, it was cooked within an inch of its life and there was hardly any fish left in the "batter" which was solid. It qas really shocking - there was a couple in front if us who sent theres back and got a whole new meal straight away but due to us having TRIED to eat it, i didnt think they would have done that for us.. We were taken aback and in shock at the state pf it but I wish I'd asked for our money back. They put us in a position and we ended up losing out but, it just means we will never go there again. Which is sad as I used to like it but, not if that's what food they are putting out. I'd actually appreciate if someone got in touch with me from the shop and offered us another meal - esp due 2 To the fact that we spent a fortune, besides the food, on alcohol, as I think we were hoping that would make the food less horrible..

We had to send an onion bhaji back as it was cremated. The next one wasn't much better. My friend and I had the chicken tikka masala. It was nice enough but it was not very warm.

Update: this place and food has gone downhill and is no longer a place we want to visit, the last time we tried it for mother's day, the food was awful. It was sent back because It was cold and it was just heated back up and overcooked and dripping in oil so was sent back again,we got a refund for the food, but we had to pay for our drinks even though we had ultimately given them 3 chances to get the meal edible and spent 40mins for them to get the meal right. Service from staff was first class, the food was lovely, even when they were really busy. We will definatley call in next time we are in the area. We'll done xxx

I popped in for a beer whilst my wife was shopping. They have 5 real ale cask beer pumps, and I asked for a pint of Dark Island, to be told that's just gone off. Ok I'll have a pint of Shinnanigans, sorry that's off too. Ok, a pint of 80shillings please......sorry that's off as well. Ok, pissed off now, but they have the staple of Duchars, guess what, that's just gone off too. Left with Abbott's, the worse of the lot, and at £2:99 a pint, I'd rather go to Starbucks. Mr Martin made his legacy by bringing cask ales to his customers, this pub, once again are trying to tuin the name.
