Called in whilst in Swansea for a late breakfast. Worst breakfast I've had in any spoons pub to date. I think the B beans were straight out of the tin, no heat applied. Toast was white, straight from the loaf. Ceri disappointed

Popped in for drinks as near the hotel I was based in. Unfortunately this Spoons attracts the local mouth breather community. Horrible drunks shouting and swearing and coming up to speak to me and ignoring vaping /smoking rules. Not pleasant. The pub itself is nice enough. Clean with nice staff, but not a place I'd feel comfortable on my own.

Oh how Tim Martin must be regretting his whole hearted support for Brexit.Among the many problems he now has to live with is supply of food and drink items but more disconcerting is the lack of qualified staff.At a time when Covid is reaching frightening levels again in Wales, precautions are practically non existent.Last night, a busy Friday packed with students out on a fancy dress bash, things were getting quite raucous and toilets getting their fair share of careless use.On at least two occasions one of the younger members of staff walked from the ladies toilet at one end of the pub to the gents at the other end carrying a dripping mop while closely passing customers squashed up against the bar!!On a very busy night the Manager was employed on table service duties, probably due to staff limitations when he would probably have be been more usefully employed taking some control of the bar. I really was glad to get out of the pub and won't be returning until Wetherspoons takes Covid a bit more seriously.

Dreadful service, meals just dumped on our sticky table, was suppose to be salad with our burger, but all we had was some brown lettuce, over cooked chicken. Did go to bar to ask, was told they go to kitchen to sort, nothing, no one came back to us. Not sauces at the one end of restaurant, the other area was blocked with pushchairs, therefore couldn't reach sauces, did report to bar staff, again, nothing done. This is without doubt somewhere to avoid until things improve.

I went here often as a student, as it was just around the corner from my accommodation. A horrible, dirty looking place, unlike the other Wetherspoons which is 7 mins walk away. Filled with all your local smackheads and alcoholics. The amount of times i’ve gone in there and had crackheads sit on my table, or alcoholics pestering me, is crazy. The staff are nice though and the food isn’t to bad.Shame about the place itself and the wasters that hang around there.

I like Spoons you get a reasonable meal and dink with no frills . Not at this place however with the rudest fair haired pony tailed wearing weasel I have ever had the misfortune of meeting. This is a place Mr Martin should do an undercover visit on , trouble with that is he’d have no staff at this place . I had a halloumi wrap which you’d think was impossible to get wrong , weasel took it for a walk around the bar , chatting to staff before he returned saying it was warm and cooked and nothing he could do . This is the same weasel that told another customer that there was no sauce ‘It was Spoons after all’Weasel you should be sacked.

We went for breakfast with friends before a day out. The food was stone cold, order messed up completely and there were no eggs available. The griddle had broken down according to the manager. Don’t bother going. It’s better to go to a little independent cafe in the market which is just around the corner. Don’t waste your money here!

Ordered food via app food order went to another wetherspoons!! Ok my mistake maybe but told we had to reorder, ok so we did only to be informed that we had to pay again as we couldn't have a refund for the food we didn't receive. Very rude manager, who could do nothing to help as "these are the rules" and as the second order had gone through we can't have a refund for that order either. Very noisy loud foul mouthed couple of guys on table by us asked to be quiet by staff but took no notice and to add insult to injury when the food finally arrived the order was wrong (definately not my fault this time as didn't use the app) Come on I'm sure even though it is cheap food and drink they could improve their customer service, still trying to figure out how the food I ordered went to another wetherspoons and why I still had to pay for it!?!

Came here for drinks with friends as we've done countless times before, and was disgusted when one of the waitresses was chatting with us and openly admitted to being racist, literally said the words "I am a racist", and starts ranting about "polish c***s" among other horrible comments. Genuinely couldn't believe it, have been here countless times before and never seen this happen but the waitress (who I believe is called Shada) has never served me before. I tried to report these disgusting comments to other members of staff, who sent me away for being too drunk when I was still prettt sober and perfectly coherent enough to report overt acts of racism. The man at the door was particularly rude about the matter, outright saying he didn't believe me and slamming the door in my face. Incredibly disappointed with Potter's Wheel and how this matter has been handled and won't be returning.

Went here for breakfast..breakfast came..no bacon..no explanation..when asked told they had run out. Asked if we wanted anything instead asked for egg, then went to kitchen and told no as they had automatically put extra sausage on. No eggs benedict, no buttys, half the breakfast menu missing..told us due to covid they only get 1 delivery a week and run out. Told table next to us it was because bacon and other things were still frozen. Such a shame as normally a good breakfast, everyone has issues but as a major chain explanation was poor and inconsistent.

I don't usually write complaints about pubs or restaurants, but I just felt completely unsatisfied and unwelcome with the service that my flatmates and I have received. I understand that we are going through a pandemic, so the time for service and catering will be delayed. However that does not give the servers the right to take out their frustration on the customers. Everyone that was working on Friday 25th September was very professional, except for the waitress with the fringe dyed pink and black hair. She was really blunt and rude towards us when we simply said "Excuse me, but could we make an order?" She replied with a very sarcastic tone and said "umm, as you can see I have no note pads or pens on me, so I cannot take your order." As she was saying this, she was using her arms to show that she had nothing to use. Then we said that was understandable, but it was quite rude. 2-4 minutes later, she came back and said in a blunt tone "I am only a server, it is not my job to take people's orders, if you want to get someone to take your order, you have to ask someone else who is holding a notepad." It was really unprofessional of her to come back to our table just to say that as if it was not obvious. After she said that and left, it had put us all with a terrible atmosphere, so we left after we had finished our drinks. The pub was cash only, as their card machine and app was not working, so it was table service only. This was okay for us, as we did not mind the wait. But it is not an excuse for the rude behaviour from the waitress with pink and black hair.

What a pity that Tim Martin or anybody in complaints live in total ignorance of the reviews given to the Potters Wheel, or the Pit. The arrogance of the management who live in a world of delusional self belief that they are providing a good service when they are nothing but rude and unprofessional. On Friday whilst waiting outside for friends, we had given up with trying to get served, I was approached outside, and on the public footpath by the manager, tall ginger bloke, intimidated, social distancing ignored, no face mask, and berated like a child, I'm 63 for smoking my cigar by the zebra crossing. This so called manager, and his female under manager behave in a Gestapo fashion, prancing about barking orders and treating people like some degenerate ingrates. He then lambasted my friends for not ordering on their app, when it works, and was ignorant to the fact that he is losing customers hand over fist. You do not own the public highway and your manner would have been received better if you didn't approach in a threatening and intimidating way. Complete pillock. Pity he hasn't done a course in hospitality, seems Wetherspoon staff are given no training apart from the Third Reich book of belittling customers. Together with the Bank Statement having 8 members testing positive for Covid 19 and not shutting down for a deep clean proves Tim Martin's attitude of treating customers as ignorant peasants, and profit before safety.

Had a lovely fish and chip meal on August 28th could not fault it.Went in again on September 3rd and were going to have the same again. Unfortunately they had sold out so decided to treat ourselves to signature steaks at £13 50 each this was a big mistake the chap that brought the order seemed as if he wanted to be anywhere but there.Had to ask for condiments then whilst he was getting that noticed we were missing the crispy onion rings.When he came back I asked for the onion rings, he looked very perplexed so my partner showed him on the menu. He went off and duly came back a bit later with said onion rings on separate plate.The steak was the worst sirloin I have ever tasted in my life and it’s been a long one so far. Both were cooked too much after a request for a rare and a medium one. I could not chew mine and ended up taking it home and throwing in the bin.If my partner ever needs his shoes resoling I will deffo know where to come.All in all it was a terrible experience and one I will not be repeating I just wish I had complained at the time. Terrible value for money.

Since the pubs have reopened today was the first time my wife and I have felt safe, even on a busy Tuesday thanks to the superb efforts of Manager, Ben. He stood at the entrance and ensured that all visitors complied with the covid safety measures. I wouldn't normally name drop but the excellent support and service from his no 1 team, James, Liz, Ffion and another 4 who sadly I didn't get their names, meant our visit reminded us of pre covid days.Only slight negative was the food. We both chose the new "Behond burger". The flavour, texture and cooking was first class but the salad we opted for instead of chips was lightweight. A very small portion of a few lettuce leaves,, 4 slices of tomato and a few slices of onion was poor value for money even with the current 50% discount.We won't order this again which is sad because this new Veganburger was a revelation, even for us non veggies!

Tuesday 4th August was the second day of “opening up” restaurants with the “Eat Out to Help” offer of £10pp discount on meals. We went to the Potters Wheel and it happened to be “Steak Tuesday”. My wife and I both had sirloin steaks with a pint and a half pint of Guinness. The bill came to just over £11 and I had to ask the cashier to check t but, as drinks were included they were discounted!!!. The steaks were very good and it was excellent value.

Yes. There is a lot not right at "The Potters." Toilets often stink and are poorly serviced.Dirty glasses regularly stacked up on the bar adjacent to the wash up area.Customers often disturbed by rough sleepers using the toilets, popping in for cheap drinks or selling shop lifted goods.Food is often served cold and prepared with lack a lack of care.Tables often taking ages to be cleared.But PLEASE don't castigate the staff.As a regular I know that the majority of bar staff are conscientious, hard working and efficient but, yes, not very happy in their work.This is a management problem!Understaffing, poor guidance and leadership and Company policies that are not conducive to happy workers.The "Wetherspoons News" gives the impression that Tim Martin responds to all complaints and suggestions. He doesn't!Head office will not respond to complaints or even acknowledge receipt of same.So don't waste time and effort complaining.

I’ve been in the UK for 3 years but never experienced a service like this before.

Well why weren’t we told about this when we ordered??? The waitress has a bad attitude standing around talking to another member of staff off duty, we also saw her slam cutlery down on a adjacent table. No check back received and didn’t clear the table the whole time we were there. There was even dirty plates from a previous customer.

I eat at this pub or it's sister pub "The Mardy" at least once a week as the food is of decent quality and reasonably priced. Yesterday my wife and i ordered a steak and some extras and a bottle of wine.No problems with my wifes steak but on cutting into mine i found it had a piece of gristle about 20mm wide running through it that even the steak knife couldn't cut it. The rest of the meal was fine. I drew the condition of the steak to the server who apologised and asked if i would like another one, As the only edible portions of the steak were those either side of the gristle i said yes to a replacement. No replacement had arrived by the time my wife had finished her meal which was about 20 minutes. I had no desire to cause a scene and as the server was running out of routes to avoid our table while serving others i gave up and left. Meat isn't a manufactured uniform product and a steak such as mine happens but the non appearance of alternative and the avoidance of our table by the server do a disservice to Weatherspoons usual high standards

I just visited The Potter's Wheel in Swansea. What a disappointment! After visiting The King and Castle in Windsor (Excellent!!), I had expected all Wetherspoon pubs to maintain a standard. This is not the case. The Potter's Wheel is a huge disappointment. We had to move to 3 different table to find one that wasn't either dirty, stunk like cigarettes or had filthy upholstered seats. That should have been our clue to leave. The upper area seemed cleaner, but the lower area was disgusting. I used the toilet in that area and it absolutely reeked of urine. It was so foul that it was one of the reasons we moved tables. The food is mediocre at best. The pizza ordered was smaller than the Windsor King and Castle pizza, The Brie, bacon and chicken (I think) pannini, for being a 'new' menu item, was a huge disappointment. A third of the bun had no ingredients on it at all, and what ingredients were there, looking like they had been tossed on, were scarce. The only plus was the staff. Bartenders were very friendly and the man bringing out food and cleaning dishes worked very hard. As for the poor state of the pub and the inconsistency of the food from other Wetherspoon properties, I blame the owners and management.

Food was perfect, can't fault it but the staff ruined it all. If you want to be interrupted during your meal by a very rude woman member of staff wanting to change the menus as you are eating. Which includes moving your bags out of the way to get at the menus then you are going to love it her. She did it with all the tables as people were eating. How thick do you have to work out that you can do all of that when you clean the table after we leave. Never coming back

Order clearly states with rice or chips. No option to choose, therefore no chips with order.

Found the pub a bit on the rough side considering it was a Wetherspoons. Noisy and not the cleanest. I thought the girls behind the bar a bit short, probably due to their customer base. Food was terrific.

We called here for early evening food. A good decision. Good bar staff, prompt service of the food. We had a few local dishes, cawl and faggotts. All well cooked and tasty. Great value for money and a good friendly atmosphere. Worth a visit

Visited the Potters Wheel on Saturday 13th April. As expected it was very busy on a Saturday afternoon. I am very fond of fish and chips and have always enjoyed them at Wetherspoons. Unfortunately, when I placed my order they had run out of fish so I had chicken tikka massala with a pint of Ruddles. My wife had a burger with a glass of Chardonnay. Staff were friendly and pleasant despite the pressures they were under.

We dropped in after doing the school run for a spot of breakfast. The team leader (Lizzie) serviced me and was welcoming and helpful. I had to adjust my order due to food allergies, Lizzie was accommodating to this and helpful.

Ordered the 5 bean chilli and was absolutely awful. Rice came as a slab as if it had been microwaved for a third time. Now I know this is Wetherspoons, however it came out solid. The portion was tiny for the rice. Chilli came in a bowl half warm and nachos were just put there to cover the lack of space that the food took up. I don’t expect a lot from Wetherspoons but I expect better than this. Not worth even 5.55

We come here as a family for food after some shopping in town sometimes. It’s not a bad place but does have a tendency for a lot of old men frequently drinking here all day.

We were looking for a meal early evening (Wednesday 16th Jan) and called at the Potters Wheel. The pub was much quieter than we have previously seen it and we easily found a table. I am very fond of fish and chips and have always enjoyed them at other Wetherspoons. My wife and I both had cod and chips – delicious. I had a pint of excellent real ale and my wife had a glass of wine. Staff were pleasant and service was prompt.

I ordered two small donner kebabs and one large donner kebab, as well as one portion of halloumi. The food was nice, but the only criticism I have it that the kebabs were not particularly not, but the halloumi was? I would much rather the other way round, but it’s not a deal breaker. I picked the food up about 5 mins after I got the confirmation text, so not sure what happened. Overall though, I would recommend.

Never have I had a bad time in my favourite local (Whether Spoons Swansea). Me and a good group of friendly locals visit here most days and have a quaint time with no trouble with staff or customer service. But tonight, unfortunately we were targeted for no reason and were refused to be served after being wrongly accused of using the fire escape, after I tried being civil with the bar maid, and empathethising with her worries of the situation even though it was a group sat near to us disrespecting the orders of not using these doors. Saddened by the response and service I received, as we were commemorating a friends passing. Apparently we were told multiple times not to use the fire exit doors, though we hadn’t after we were told once not to. I was served by this woman a good few times in the passed and there had been no issue before.

Went in and was immediately asked if I wanted a keebab. Ordered chips beans and cheese. When I got back to my car, only chips and beans. Went back and was given attitude until the young girl found my receipt. When I finally opened my order again, it had chips, beans a tiny tiny portion of cheese on top. When be ordered from home at this place on Uber, it’s been great. Disgusting behaviour and service. Seems like the person preparing the food was being spiteful, as he was wrong. Will never order again.

Simply the worst McDonalds drive-through I've ever used. Pitifully slow, screens not working, 3x out of 4 having to wait in the car park for food to be delivered, and all but one visit got the order wrong. Have given them the benefit of doubt 3x as they are a new outlet, but after this latest visit I have complained to McDonalds Customer Services by email and will see what they have to say. Wrong order (unsurprised as the person seemed to misunderstand everything), overcharged for items, extra burger added and charged for, again had to wait in the car park. As for the so called piece of bacon in the bacon mayo chicken burger, it was the smallest slither of bacon and I wonder if Trading Standards would be interested! Only noticed the incorrect order on the way home, in heavy work time traffic, so didn't go back to complain. Will not go back. Thankfully the other McDonalds in Swansea have all been excellent.
