Weatherspoons don't offer fine dining and we all know that, but what they offer is good, cheap and cheerful grub. Refillable hot drinks make 'Weathers' a great place to meet up or just take a load off while shopping. Warm and comfortable and the staff are usually friendly and obliging. Breakfasts are good and their chips are perfect. I am now addicted to Linghams garlic and chilli sauce after trying it on my chips! We have had many family get togethers in The Richard Hopkins making use of their space and even taking games to play.

This is a typical J D Wetherspoons pub. Food prices appear standard across the group. Food is simple but filling and reasonably priced. A good selection of ales at cheaper prices than most local pubs.

An unbelievable place reportedly this is we're wetherspoons started the holly grail It was very busy and as you can see we sat in what was a green house for growing oranges,it was part of the imperial hotel in Exeter which was bought by Tim and turned into his first venture as wetherspoons

I like the John Hopkins because it's the nearest weatherspoons to Totnes which is about 20 minutes by bus. The toilets are classic spoons style but they are upstairs so it's a slight thumbs down for me there as its harder to access. Varied food and drinks menus with classic pub grub and some more exotic dishes. It's got outdoor seating but I wouldn't class it as a garden more of a street view veranda. You can people watch and enjoy the new construction works that are nearly complete in widening the pedestrian walkway

As far as weatherspoons go it's pretty decent. Normally can find a table and speed of service is pretty 'ok'. Main reason only 4*s is that I always het given dirty glasses, which really takes the shine off your wetherspoons prosecco.... or they give you a wine glass instead of a flute 🤣 maybe I'm holding too high expectations froma spoons. Don't get me wrong, I will continue to come and wipe my glass down with a napkin 🤣

Good little Wetherspoons pub close to the main shopping area in Newton Abbot. Food is standard (usually very good). The place (like all Spoons) can get very busy. Today, there are only 2 coffee machines working, so there's big queues there, but if they are all in action it's quick to get your drinks. There are decent toilets upstairs in the pub, plenty of seating and the staff are always friendly and helpful.

We have visited this Wetherspoons pub many times over the years, and you can't find fault with it no matter how yiu try? The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and the food and drink are well worth the money. When we are on holiday or just a long week away in Devon we stop at the Travelodge Torre. We then put our suit cases in the room, and get the bus just outside the hotel and off to Newton Abbot to the pub for a meal. Then a bit of shopping to stock up for munches (Poundland alnost next dooor), and get the bus back to the hotel sorted? I hope this review is of some help, and please,stay safe and take care.

Cheap and cheerful! The last time we went, the place looked so clean; the tables were freshly sanitized and all of the menu cards were brand new. Lots of meal choices from a varied menu. We ordered, using the app., and the meals were hot - and brought promptly to our table. A lovely lady subsequently asked us if everything was in order. All meals are reasonably priced. There is a wide choice of alcoholic drinks, all of which are much cheaper than in other pubs.

Lovely Spoons which i assume has had a recent makeover. The 2 ladies serving behind the bar (short cropped hair, butch looking) the other middle aged had faces like the proverbial slapped a#se. Disappointed with the new 12 inch wrap, when it comes its about 5 inches, and the wife confirmed my measurement estimate. She should know. Great spoons but get the older staff members to be polite and smile occasionally.

I don’t know why we went here but I will certainly never go to Wetherspoons again!! It was appalling! We used to go to the one in Paignton for a value snack and a couple of drinks now and again. We didn’t expect haute cuisine but it was always Ok and a good atmosphere. This place was messy, noisy and the food wasn’t fit for pigs. It was virtually thrown at us and looked like it had been thrown, from a distance, at the plate. It was horrible. Nothing more to say really

Wetherspoons in Newton Abbot offers a slightly pricier experience compared to others such as The Chevalier inn, but what it lacks in affordability, it makes up for in tranquility and hospitality. Despite the higher prices, the atmosphere is notably more peaceful, allowing for a more relaxed dining or drinking experience. The friendly staff adds to the welcoming ambiance, making it a pleasant spot to unwind after a long day. While it may not be the cheapest option, the extra expense is worth it for the serene environment and amicable service.

Good beer but service can be slow due to the bar not being properly staffed in The last month this establishment has become worse firstly i was invisible to a barperson she served a gent fair enough but with only 2 people at the bar another 2 girls walk in between us and she serves them first i walked out shocking service not a clue what is going on around them Bar so so understaffed However i did have my first breakfast and it was superb and value for money like spoons always is excellent food but service at the bar is a joke its like segregation one barperson doing one side others invisabile I feeel a queuing system should be introduced then i wouldnt get missed thats now 10 times in a year and 2 in 2 weeks What i have noticed by a friend though is spoons have a great new app which you can order from your mobile phone and pay it by phone app and the barperson brings it to your table As he says this app saves him from queing up at the bar I love spoons as a rule but this one just has something missing at times but still cheap and cheerful since I wrote this away back 3 years ago I was asked to write again service has improved but the App orders can make it a longer wait for a beer but it's not bad during the week weekends can be a lot longer of a wait unless you can use the App

We was on a pub tour of the area and passed this on a way to another pub and thought “oh this looks quaint” sometimes the most impromptu pubs are the best and this one certainly is! Four ales were on draft we opted for the salcombe gold Which was excellently kept. I loved the laid back atmosphere with dog friendly sofas. They have a beautiful boxer dog named boots who greets you on arrival who is loving in nature with people and dogs. Very chilled and dog friendly and I will certainly visit again and stay for longer when I’m next in the area. Whatpub online does not hype this place is much as it should.
