The Port Jackson in East Hertfordshire

I normally like going here, but during this visit I found staff to be not very welcoming and difficult. One member of staff spent the whole time complaining about everything and was making mistakes with people's orders. It's a shame because I have always found it to be a nice establishment.

Tasty food & beers/ales for a reasonable price.

Nice sitting next to window, easy ordering on app. Didn't have to wait very long for food & staff helpful.

Wetherspoons you get what you expect. Good food, great beer all at a reasonable price.

Witherspoon so it is inexpensive8

Spoons ...ideal for a breakfast

It's a Spoons, you know what you are getting. Table service on the App was friendly and superfast

Very nicw and cheap place to get a drink or eat something

A quick stop as we were waiting for traffic to clear. Nice surroundings and the usual Wetherspoon efficiency. Will come again if in area

Stayed for a couple late on a Saturday night. Quite possibly the closest Wetherspoon's to.Stansted Airport. Locals were friendly as were the bar staff. Very nice craft beer in Mad Squirrel. Only seem to have this one in the South East of England. Worth a visit if you're in the town.

decent spoons pub which retains its quality simply by being in bishops stortford

Excellent value for money as well as very good service. Food arrived very quickly.

I haven't been there yet but it looks nice

Cheap but good drinks, always good vibes

Its a weatherspoon, you know what to expect however, the location, specially outside by the river in the summer is super nice. Decent amount of space between tables. Service is always nice.

Recenlty went in and as they made a mistake previously decided to add up and use a calculator. Had my usual drink lefe as part of a meal deal 1 other drink cofee and other food ordered, but came to around £1 more than it should I explained its wrong and the person argued that it is not part of the meal drink deal, having explained and showed it is, still did not agree so I put through everything as seperate meals and found the mistake instead of a sharwarma on its own 3.29 pushed it as a meal making it more expensive. Easily done but the person serving might need more training especially as Having been shown on a calculator and the menu states it is part of the meal deal.

Lovely pub extensive menu plenty if seating areas good choice of drinks & ales

Excellent service. Manager most helpful and approachable

I ordered a larged mixed grill with a jacket potato, cooked exactly as requested at a very reasonable price, as a drink is included in the deal.

A great stop on our overnight in Stansted! Great beer and nice food options. Casual with a locals vibe.

Ok if you don't mind queuing for a drink

Me and my teen daughter came for breakfast. We have as a family been to many wetherspoons sites, but this one beats all others by a country mile. My breakfast was perfect and much better than others I've had before. Theyve always been OK for the price but this was far better. Such good value and a nice clean bar/restaurant. Nice work, I'd highly recommend.

The place to go for a chilled afternoon

Mice wetherspoons, good prices and food is what you would expect. Not great but you know what you are getting. I had a chicken burger. Which was pleasant enough and a bonus, it was hot! Quick service as always and friendly staff

Busy and friendly staff made for a pleasant visit.

lovely pub friendly staff,food nice and hot.will be back.

Clean and tidy compared to some spoons. Nice seating area outside. You'd be forgiven to think you weren't in a spoons. Even the bogs were quite clean. Food service was swift.

Always a pleasure coming here, the staff are very easy to get along with even when they are super busy and stressed, really nice food and a beautiful setting with the garden, always a laugh and a great time every time I go, definitely recommend if you’re passing.

Good environment!The security are very polite and respectful!

It's a wetherspoons, does what it's says on the tin

I go here a lot but went a few weeks ago at 6:30pm I got asked if I wanted my wine in a Gin Glass!!!!

Visited for breakfast as we we were in town . I decided to try out your new to menu “Fiesta Brunch” and was most pleased I did ! An excellent item added to your menus . We did not have to wait too long for receiving it either . Good value . Also good value , was the Egg and Cheese Muffin my partner had , and She said that was most enjoyable , especially with the free drink . Special mention for your server , Tracey , real service with a smile

Busy for a Tuesday but able to find a seat no problem. They seemed short staffed but managed to cope...just. Usual Soonies fare so don't expect gourmet steak with a pint or glass of wine for £11-squid

Great place,, busy but great atmosphere fantastic value for money

Was very beautiful and super place to chill and relax. Good services offered .

One of the better Wetherspoons, clean and friendly

Great pub cheap drinks very loud but no music 😔

Warm white wine Nice basic food, staff work hard. .

Met some old friends and this place was amazing with plenty of tables in area's where we could all talk and here each other no problem 😊 food was served without a hitch and was really well done 😊 overall a very good afternoon and thanks to Weatherspoons for having such a lovely place.

Went for breakfast with my family after landing at stansted airport after a holiday. It’s definitely one of the nicer Wetherspoons about and the staff were good. All 4 of us had a good breakfast for not much money. Would recommend.

Service better than usual, less customers!! Food good, beer cheap, what else do you want

We visited for a lunchtime meal , with My Partner’s elderly friend . On the whole the meal was good . We ordered three different dishes , but all were delivered to us st the same time . So none of us had a long wait , which was good . Just one complaint it is a pity you do not employ someone who can fry eggs properly !

Nice food and location, staff unfortunately not cleaning tables and quite rude

The fat manager that was out of breath by the time she even got to my table… showed bad manners and the service is an always poor with crackheads taking over at night. I don’t suggest anyone goes here. There are many better pubs in stortford such as black lion with a good night life and BACCAS I’d just warn you to avoid this establishment.

A great Pub really lively crowd and excellent service provided by the staff. 😎👍

Great spoons, it had a good atmosphere on a Friday night and quick service despite the busy atmosphere. good priced drinks the pints of Guinness were top class I savoured many glasses and quenched my thirst. Toilets just too far which I've noticed is a common theme in most spoons, climbing stairs can be most tiresome when drinking and relaxing. Doormen were also top blokes

they do banging apple slices 10/10 recommend, alternatively milk is a good option if you’re feeling thirsty

They should have QR codes on every table or more easily available but besides that it's amazing the flakiest fish 10/10 would recommend. Staff works efficiently, you cannot beat the price point for food and quality+ drink.

Always had lovely meals here, shame the smokers bit ruins your meal if you're eating outside, I don't want to breathe in their smoke! So we eat inside now.

The best fish and chips. Service is also very prompt and friendly.

a new and clean wetherspoon, always recommend!

One of my favourite pubs, good food, good service, and reasonably priced. It was very busy as usual, but there were a few spare tables. Our one had not been cleaned very well, but was OK. I had a lovely curry, but was disappointed that they did not have any bottles of sweet chilli sauce to put on it.

Compared to Hertford wetherspoons which we prefer to use these days never get burnt toast in the Hertford one on more than 3 tomes have received burnt toast on the large breakfast Prefer staff in the Hertford one too more friendly staff in this one can be not as friendly and stand offish at times Think if you drink there regularly then they seem to like you more So would normally recommend not on this occasion I'm not

A nice Wetherspoons in Bishop's Stortford town centre, The Port Jackson. Typical food and drink menu with good service and prices. The atmosphere is lively with plenty seating at ground and first floors. Also there are external tables with good parasol cover at the side of the river Stort. We enjoyed an evening dinner here when travelling via the adjacent Stansted Airport.

3 nights dinning there and all the foods and drinks were pretty good, tasting different plates each time. Food os served very quick, and the staff is very nice.

A bustling wethers on a Saturday night in a nice spot by the river - food and drink very reasonably priced we had a curry meal with a beer decent quality food for a chain pub and service very good (we ordered on the app for delivery to our table), friendly staff too :)

Still don't agree with their no dog rule, I've never seen dogs throw food all over the floor and heard them constantly screaming, wish they had a downstairs loo. Otherwise food is one of the better weatherspoons, and staff lovely.

Dirty glasses ignored & tables not wiped At least 4 bar staff standing around oblivious.

Decided on the chicken jalfrezi which came with nan bread, rice and 2 poppadoms. Surprisingly the chicken was very tender and tasted great, spice was perfect. The nan and poppadoms were ok, I guess they don't have a clay oven to make the nan bread which is fine. Good value at around £10 with a soft drink. Not too busy for a Sunday afternoon.

Very friendly staff food is good

A vibrant town centre pub. Lots of fun people around. The reliable wetherspoon menu takes the guess work out. There is segregation between outside areas into smoking and non smoking zones. Seating upstairs too.

A gorgeous new-build spoons. The staff are always friendly and attentive.

Best pub and food in town. Great service from staff. On my latest visit my breakfast took about half an hour to arrive and stone cold, coffee machine not working and didn't recive a cup. It could have been a one off but I walked out thinking I should have gone elsewhere and will be now.

Pipped in for breakfast and coffee. Both great.

It's a spoons, visit when working in the area, breakfast and coffee. Decent place, generally well kept. Coffee machines both upstairs and down which is good.

Good pub.very clean and well looked after.Quick Service

Very good! Clean, well maintained, great curb appeal - thanks to beautiful planters and flower baskets, looking crispy most of the time and this spring in particular! A huge credit to Bishops Stortford this lovely pub is! Thank you for such a pleasant pub experience: everything is top notch! And for a very attractive prices!

I used to love this place but the food isn’t as good as it used to be. Burnt bacon Saturday and solid fried eggs. It simply shouldn’t have come out like that. The mixed grill too the meat is now very small pieces so not only is there shrinkflation but the prices are up too post Covid. Which is fine if the meat was the same size as pre Covid. Sadly there no chicken included anymore either

we had a lovely encounter with a boy from the kitchen called dan and was very helpful we had a enquiry about food and he was very quick to help

We had an enquiry and a lovely lad called Dan from the kitchen was very quick to come and help and answer our questions, by far the best Wetherspoons I have been to and thank you to Dan !

The dishes are cold, the tables are not cleaned. But the setting is friendly and warm

Excellent pub in a great location with good quality and value food and drink like most Spoons.

Really nice pub on the river . Great value for location. Clean, tidy and staff attentive and helpful.

Ellie (Ell) (Blonde girl) was super lovely and friendly, :) Quick and easy service, staff were nice

Brilliant place for a good drink

One of my favorite Weatherspoons. Good food and drinks

Better service if you use the app

The place where good times are on tap and the food is as satisfying as your best friend's jokes. Whether you're in for a casual pint or a full-blown feast, you'll leave with a smile on your face and a belly full of happiness. Too many drunk kids though.......

Good food, well presented and cooked, for an appropriate price.

Popped in for a meal when passing through on a Saturday evening. Service was fast, and the food was fantastic. Very busy, certainly good for Wetherspoons, and everyone seemed to be having a good time. Security doormen were lovely.

Had a lovely breakfast with the family, very friendly pub and high standard of customer service from Tanya

Nice atmosphere and staff. Good food and ale. Prices very fair.

Clean premises, Friendly service reasonable priced drinks, great atmosphere

Walking in I was expecting minimal service for minimal price. I got the complete opposite. Staff incredibly friendly and happy to help in any way possible. Thanks for making my first experience here a good one. Erin and her colleagues were nothing less than amazing. Thanks

Lovely hard working staff, food in my opinion was below Spoons usual standard and smaller portions. Very quick service for how busy it was .

Very busy weatherspoons but great service

Typical Wetherspoons. They're all the same

Good atmosphere good price good food

Best prices best booze it a great pub

Really nice spoons, staff have a good attitude and we're lovely, place was pretty clean overall and the food was good. With there was more cheese on the chips though

Great place and reasonable prices can't fault the price or the Service!

Great food, quick service. Noisy people around us, even on a Tuesday night! I had the steak and my wife had the Ramen noodles and chicken which was as good as anything from Wagamama's in our opinion...

A bit like a bus shelter full of people waiting to claim social benefits. Honestly why do people drink here....answer " its cheap and cheap is not always good". I had to put one star to post but its 1 star negertive. The staff are really rude and spend more time talking to each other about there tattoos. Really I had to walk out its so toxic. Never been in a greasy spoon before but now I know why I dont do cheap.

Extremely rude member of staff, told me and my parents to and I quote ‘eat quick and leave’ as we had a dog with us in the garden who was sitting there wasn’t barking or causing any problems, the waitress brought out our drinks and didn’t say a thing about the dog but as soon as we get our food it’s a problem? Completely put off returning here due to the down right rudeness we experienced like I work in customer service myself and there was no excusing that behaviour.

Visited this place for the first time in many many years. A lovely location for a midweek midday lunch. I had the Ramen which was fairly well priced. Ramen - tasted pretty bad unfortunately. The included veg was fine but the soup itself was really quite bad, hot river water with prepacked veg. Staff were friendly and attentive. Atmosphere was great, at time I went there wasna lot of pensioners, babies and a few groups of young-mid aged people. Everyone seemed friendly enough from the interactions I had. Location is very nice, right next to the river, good outdoors area and there's an upstairs seating area indoors, the building is nicely sized. I would recommend this pub, its great especially for a Weatherspoons! P.s. the toilets are very nice compared to other Weatherspoons Inhave visited.

Hay muchos pubs Wetherspoon en Londres, y todos ellos ofrecen una variedad de cervezas, vinos y cócteles, así como una amplia selección de comida de pub. Estaba limpio y bien mantenido, y el personal era amable y servicial. La comida es generalmente bastante buena y asequible. Hay una amplia selección de platos para elegir, desde platos clásicos como hamburguesas y fish and chips hasta platos más creativos. Los precios son razonables

We were there with my boyfriend to have a dinner. We ordered some fish and burger from chicken fillet.. It was super burnt and not possible to eat. After I told to someone from the staff they offered me to bring me another one, but the second one was still alive..

Average breakfast, but pints were served at 10 am so not a terrible experience

Love the toilets, love the beer and staff, food almost quicker than u can walk up the stairs to your table sometimes 😀 but yeah bing and it fills the hole

I decided to try the breakfast as I had some time between appointments. The place was not crowded, the food was good and the service as you would expect at Weatherspoon's. As soon as I ordered online (using the Weatherspoon's app) , a member of staff brought me a mug an directed me to the Coffee/ Chocolate machine and I was told I could have free refills. The food arrived shortly after, and was good quality. For £4.11 it waz excellent value, and I will use this establishment again
