DINNER WAS BANGING (from jayden,age14) had a burger. I had katsu Curry, it was hot and presented beautifully. The chicken was perfect. Sometimes, I have this dish, and the chicken can be overcooked. But not today. It was also very busy so was impressed we didn't have to wait too long. Thank you to the chefs!! Spot on

The Savoy – Wetherspoons, Swindon 🎭🍻 Step into The Savoy, and you’re instantly hit with a buzzing atmosphere and a slice of Swindon’s cinematic history. Once a grand 1930s theatre, now a Wetherspoons with serious character, it still retains its art deco charm—just swap the movies for cheap pints! ✅ The Good: •   Great value—as expected from ‘Spoons, your wallet will thank you. •   Stunning building—a real piece of history, with theatrical vibes still in the air. •   Lively crowd—never a dull moment, day or night! ❌ The Not-So-Good: •   Tables? What tables? Oh, you mean the ones hidden under a mountain of empty glasses and plates? Yeah, the staff aren’t in a hurry to clear them. Verdict: A cool, atmospheric pub with pints cheaper than water, but be prepared to bus your own table. If only the service matched the setting! 🍻🎭

Admittedly I'm a regular in the Savoy. The food is standard JDW fare but the kitchen staff know what they are doing and make the best of it ...18 hand pumps for ales making it the best choice in Swindon for CAMRA and other ale drinkers. Tell me where else you can get a decent all day brunch with an alcoholic drink for less than 7 quid? Or a small brunch wrap on its own for 3.15? You can't get that value anywhere else....

Can’t really fault it to be honest. Girl on the bar was a bit slow, maybe she’s new. Breakfast came out super quick, not piping hot but hot enough, to be fair most Wetherspoons are the same. And for £2.79 for a small breakfast, cheaper than McDonald’s! Clean floors and tables. One loud local but then this is a spoons haha. Overall good.

We popped in here for food and drinks, before going to the theatre👍 We found a table easy tonight, but then ordered our drinks at the bar, as it wasn’t busy. But after a few minutes quite a crowd came in, so we used the App to order our food👍 First time to use the app, got used to it quite quickly, so was easier. Food was basic, but good value for money😋

Although I love this place and prices are great value, the place really needs to address the air con problem instead of wasting money getting electric heaters in that have no real affect due the the constant use of the air con system. This has been going on for well over a year and things are no better. People want to feel warm and cosy. Instead we have to sit around in hats and heavy coats in order to keep warm.

I'm sorry.. this was probably the worst experience of any Wetherspoon I've visited anywhere in the country Firstly needed to form an orderly queue at the bar... Ordered a couple of drinks and some food, it arrived cold and in parts uncooked and very unappealing One piece of Gammon looked grilled, the other seemed boiled. The small fish was missing the fish and was just a bit of burned batter. The veg was all shrivelled ... I could go on ! just unbelievable that anyone would even believe they could serve this appalling quality to a paying customer. Not recommended at any level !!

It is a nice place to have fun with friends. The beers are way cheaper than many pubs around. Their combi deal of burger with laffe beer is my favourite one. They often serve fish and chips at a reasonable price. Usually gets out of stock quickly. It is quite large in size. You could sit at a corner to have some privacy. The music is great and not too loud. Great service with nice people. You can order on your table through the app or at the counter. Have fun!

Another Swindon spoons which used to be the old Savoy Theatre. I do think this would be so picturesque in summer with the huge tree outside giving shade to the outside tables. Anyway, not particularly wheelchair free with all the steps leading down from the entrance to the main level and then another couple of steps to the bar. But a nice place none the less. The staff were lovely, the place was clean and the Guinness was excellent - what more is there to say.

DO NOT EAT HERE, especially if youre emetophobic. Me and my partner visited in march for breakfast. We both felt completely fine before eating the full english and the breakfast muffin, not even two hours later we both felt extremely unwell and then spent the entire two days following throwing up every single hour. They know theyre serving poor quality food and we paid the price. Even if the price is good, it was not worth feeling deathly ill for a week.
