It was very busy and I'm not a fan of town centre pubs. However, for a quick drink before the theatre this was a perfect stop

It's not a great Weatherspoons. The one on The Strand in Barnstaple is better. Cheap beer like all Weatherspoons

We had steak (not the best) I wasn't impressed my partner was! In my opinion, it's not the best Wetherspoons I have visited. It's across the road from the theatre. Cheap. 10/10 Drinks were good 👍. 8/10 Cleanliness 4/10 Staff 6/10.

Conversation with a young woman behind the bar. "Pizza please " "Sorry no pizzas" "Right. Well, fish and chips" "No fish." "Oh for god's sake. What HAVE you got?" "We've got lots of things on the menu, you can't expect us to have everything!" "Well, scampi then, assuming you've got it" "We have, and there's no need to have a go at me, it's not my fault!" "I wasn't having ... never mind" I got the impression that this rude woman could not care less about us, the customers. Some staff wear video cameras- perhaps they should issue them to customers too, to record staff bad attitudes. I shan't be returning.

It's a wetherspoon pub, cheap drinks, cheap food and prompt service, no frills, serves a purpose. My only issue was that the tables hadn't been cleared or cleaned. It was a Friday evening so they were busy but they should account for this.

Shocking visit with my Family on Monday. One poor chap on the bar on his own trying to serve and manage the app. Lady on the floor was working tirelessly to try and get everything done but fighting a losing battle. We waited 45 minutes for our food which was inedible…….. No sign of a manager throughout the visit which I think is unacceptable given how busy the pub was.

Put a fiver in the slot machine and it crashed. The manager tried to restart it to get my money back, but didn't have any luck. She saw it was a fiver I lost, but refused to give me my money back until the engineer had been called. I went back after the machine had been turned on again expecting to get my money back, but they refused saying they had to wait for the engineer. I called back in again a week later and they knew nothing of it and took my details again saying they will call me. One month later and still no call. Enjoy my fiver you robbing barstewards.

The pub was quite busy. Found a table, queued at the bar, ask for table to be cleaned, had to wait for another til, and then told someone else is.sitting at the table. The solution was for me to walk around find another table and maybe the same happens again. The people sat at the table I found had still not been to the bar and ordered. Guess a single person cannot use a table and order.

It was busy which was good to see. Unfortunately not enough bar staff which wasn’t their fault. Ordered our meals, served on cold plates, which there is no excuse for. Food itself not very warm, might have been waiting on the side sometime before coming out. I would have said something if we had been asked. Very disappointed, have eaten here before when on holiday and it has been fine. Money is short for everyone, it will be a long time before we return to this Wetherspoons

Disappointed, dirty, unhelpful. The baby change had faeces all over the toilet so smelt disgusting, and no one went in to clean or make it as out of order. The pizza oven was broken, which I get happened but the app let me order 1, I was told about the issue and that I needed to go to the bad to rectify it this is where the visit went wrong. I waited and waited I then gave up on the idea of getting food and just wanted to cancel my food as the rest was still being cooked. I was initially refunded for part of my order then eventually all of it although the member of acted as though this was a true issue to her. The food finally came after over 30 minutes and was cold and dry, it was unenjoyable, unedible, and disappointing.

Was here today with my family for a quick bite to eat. Had to send my food back as there was hair in it. Looked like beard hair ( I hope that's what it was 🙈) by the time my new food arrived my partner and kids had almost finished theirs. My partners burger was freezing cold in the middle, his bap was burnt, the 11 year old ordered spag bol..was literally 3 forkfuls in his bowl. My new food that arrived was not worth the wait ended up leaving it. There was 2 other tables around us had to send food back also for whatever reason. Definitely will be avoiding in the near future.

Went for a pizza and drinks. But when we got there the pizza ovens were not working, so ordered ham, egg and chips at 2.00pm. There appeared to be only 2 server's on today, the lady was rushing around and lad not so much. The lady was collecting used plates and bringing out the food (one at a time). The lad, I didn't see take away any of the plates. Only the one's the previous people on our table had used and that was after we asked for them to be removed. The table was very sticky and had salt all over it. Our food arrived at 2.43 and was very tasty and hot. Went to the toilet and there was a dirty nappy in the toilet cubicle. These according to the check list hadn't been checked for 2 hours. But they were clean.
