The Silk Mercer in Wiltshire

Standard Wetherspoons with a surprisingly limited real ale selection

Good food, friendly helpful staff, enjoyed it

The member of staff that brought our food over clearly didn't want to be there! When ordering I asked for sunflower spread not butter due to dietary requirements and the dish came out with butter still so I politely asked for it to be changed and she actually huffed at me and walked off with the butter while I was still talking to her. She then came back with the sunflower spread and chucked it onto the table before walking off again. My friend was so disgusted she made a complaint to the manager who did then have a word with the staff member but we received no apology. The food was mediocre at best but you get what you pay for and for under a fiver I did get an edible meal. I do try to avoid eating at weather spoons if I can simply because the food isn't great and now I'm even less likely to eat in one if the staff can't even be polite.

Standard weather spoons, cheap food and drink which is all pretty good, they cater for families and the staff were really good

Cheap beer ... busy ... polite staff

Great value for money good food at great prices

A good atmosphere.order on app a quick service and food was good.

I was told not to expect too much, I got even less than I expected. The poppadoms were literally swimming in oil and very stupidly placed on top of the nan bread, so I couldn't eat that either. The curry was akin to what I would expect from supermarket canned curry. All in all, it was cheap, but not very cheerful!!

Clean throughout and fast service

All way's good value for money, with good service.

Reasonable choice of well-served real ales. Spacious, sectioned ground floor. Helpful, friendly staff. Unexciting rear outdoor area but a good Wetherspoon pub 👍

Food is nice and hot! 🔥 The new menu is a real game-changer! 😋 Quality food at great prices! 💰 #foodie #yum #nomnom

I use Wetherspoon's quite a bit. The Silk Mercer was a very pleasant experience. Really good upkeep. Service was exemplary. Fortunately it was quiet so conversation was easier.

A spoons in Devizes is a pleasant surprise ngl. Very nice inside with great service 👍

Service was a bit slow as I ordered from the table, but my drink came and food came shortly after, tables are cleared quickly after finishing meals leaving the restaurant very tidy. Quick and friendly staff, great food for a great price

Open late, cheap food and great deals on drinks. It’s a little run down but the service is fast and friendly. Honestly it’s a pretty great spoons.

I haven't been here for 3 years, thought I would try again last week & went for a breakfast, hoping things had improved . Sadly not! Breakfast still cold, snotty eggs put me off completely, still full of drinkers at 9 in the morning!! Children screaming & allowed to run around while doing it, parents oblivious, staff don't seem to be bothered by this at all !! Carpets still sticky, padding in seats long gone, tables sticky with food & drink. Same waitress, who is the only thing I would praise in here, service with a smile, professional & courteous. Could fix these things easily, let's hope they do eventually!!

Very nice rural atmosphere, especially on market day. Staff friendly and service is quick

Food was ok. Staff not as friendly as they could be. On a positive note, great value for money.

Typical Wetherspoons, overcooked food but decent ale at a good price..

It's a weatherspoons, it will never be outstanding but it provides great value food and drinks all day!.

Went here as an unplanned visit before we visited John Lawsons circus, had something to eat food was very nice, fantastic staff friendly n polite, very clean, the the tables were wiped down shortly after the customers had left. Excellent value as a wetherspoons are highly recommend

Decent enough place nice breakfast

Good but inexpensive food with a good choice of beers.

Friday May 31st - I believe they had an unannounced visit from the Cask Marque assessment association. Aim of the C.M. is to conduct an inspection visit every 6mths. As a regular real ale and cider drinker at the Mercer, a)it doesn't surprise me that they passed with flying colours, b) this result may encourage others to believe inside the quality of their real ale beers, and, their wonderful ciders. Congratulations to Sam and her team.

Nice little Spoons. Far better than my local one in Salisbury.

It's a Wetherspoons they are mostly the same. It's the staff that make them memorable.

Great food & drinks at amazing prices.

Cheap and cheerful pub with adequate menu and reasonably priced beer.

It's a Wetherspoons...was decent enough until some noisy kids came in 😅 Food is typical of Wetherspoons, I hadn't visited one for maybe 10 years. Memories came flooding back, most not positive 😅 Don't come here for quality food, come here to line your stomach and cheap drinks...

Nice Spoons just off market square.

A good solid Weatherspoons. Food is good and with a solid portion size. Service is friendly.

Overall, a good experience and the food was good too! A huge improvement over previous years. The staff were friendly and everything was served in a timely manner. Maybe just a little more friendly chat would have brought it up another star. Beautiful building with lots of history told from the pictures on the walls too!

Not a place to eat last time I had dinner the chicken was not cooked frozen in the middle. I take a chance on the 🍺

If you want reasonable priced drinks this is the place to come. The food is ok for the price, in fact lately it has been very good and most times quite hot when delivered to the table. The toilets are upstairs with an accessible toilet on the ground floor. There is a small courtyard at the back of the building. You are a stone's throw from the market square and shops.

Very friendly and helpfull staff

Nice breakfast friendly waitress nice clean establishment.

Woman behind bar needs to smile.. food was on the cool side.

TERRIBLE FOOD MIXED GRILL Every meat was dry tasteless overcooked and flavourless except the sausage I P really thought they found my old boots and cooked them. The baked potato peas tom and mushroom were well cooked and tasty

Great value and good food and drink. We go here regularly.

Great service and food was good.

Excellent food, service and location and great vfm plus clean toilets. Recommended. 👍

Wetherspoon pub and grub with Wetherspoon prices. Guest ale Old Smokey was good especially at £1:41 a pint

The spoons is always cheap and cheerful. Great value for money..

Very busy but service and foid was good

Had a breakfast. It was OK. Toast always seems a bit too cool, butter never melts.

Nice enough multi roomed Wetherspoons, interior nice and well kept so much so I thought it had a recent refurb (customers told me not the case). Couple of decent Stonehenge guest ales on day of my visit, all ok. Service quick and polite. Previously a drapers premises according to the framed pics on the wall. Not sure on the exterior colouring always think Wetherspoons suits a nice dark blue colour, the red just reminds of High Plains Drifter 🤣. This pub should be included on your drinking visit to Devizes ... Cheers, Matty

Service is slow. But beer OK and food passable.

What's not to like, especially on a quiet Sunday morning for breakfast. Great value for money.

It's a nice building with cosy decor and cheap and cheerful food and drinks . We went on a Monday evening and it was medium busy , some customers in there were a bit worse for wear and might have been off putting for the feint hearted - but didn't put me off my chips and deep fried curry 😋. Oh I think everyone knows there is no dogs allowed in any weatherspoons (good job too as that WOULD be carnage 😬).

Popped in like we always do when we visit family in devizes, I ordered a classic 8oz sirloin steak with chips medium rare, when it came out it certainly wasn't cooked medium rare it was more like well done. The top was all burnt and it was very tough to cut.

Good food all hot this time good.

Levné a útulné, příjemný a ochotný personál

Very loud, but the service was good and being a Wetherspoons, it does what it says on the tin. Much better value for money than anywhere else we went!

It’s a spoons, it serves a purpose. It was a very very busy Saturday night. We ordered drinks on the app as couldn’t get to the bar. The drinks came surprisingly quickly considering the amount of people on the premises. The staff were calm and friendly. Lots of very drunk people, the staff handled it well.

Typical Wetherspoon, cheap drinks and good value food.

Quite a nice pub in st Ives cambridgeshire , gets busy but drinks are a very good Cost cheaper then rival the regal in Cambridge, haven't really had food there but I guess similar to other Witherspoon's

always value for money. love the app .makes ordering so easy. Great vegan choice too ,even vegan spread. Decaffeinated drinks available too, plus alternative milk. Great

Nice place won't go again though

Really enjoyed my meal here the other night! They were very busy but the atmosphere was still nice. I sat next to the fire and it was lovely after being out in the cold. My soup was delicious and well worth the wait. The guys behind the bar were very friendly and helpful.

Medium sized Spoons in center of town. Set on multiple levels with access ramps for wheelchairs. Outdoor seating area to rear. Usual range of food and drinks available. Public car park across road.

Great atmosphere, nothing to do with all the shots of baby Guinness 😂 A fun night, friendly staff

Only been uring the daytime, but customers and staff are all polite and friendly.

Actually a great experience... because of Lucy! I have never met a member of staff in any Weatherspoons to be so accommodating! Will 100% be coming back here for food and drinks.

Can't review it as most tables reserved even though they're all empty, tim won't approve, his tables are supposed to make money, people come in look around then go somewhere else

Popped in today for fish and chips, and it was superb! Abbot always was awesome 👌 grandkids loved their ham egg and Chips. The place was packed, must be doing it right. Well done guys.

Came for some food, within 2 hours was very very ill. Never again

A very good example of a Wetherspoons pub and how they should be. Food was the much better end of good (it’s cheap and cheerful, so can’t expect gourmet!) and came out really quickly. Servers all polite. Clean and well presented pub, would definitely go back.

Dropped in with the grandkids for breakfast on our way home from a week spent locally. Found a vacant booth in the downstairs seating area and service was quick both with ordering at the bar and food arriving at our table. Everything was cooked fine and as you would expect, prices very reasonable. Toilets are upstairs and the large gents room was clean. Bit annoying to find one woman customer wearing what looked like painting overalls hogging the hot drinks station and stuffing their pockets with coffee sachets and tea bags etc - why?! There are time restricted parking spaces close by if you’re lucky or pay and display.

Great Wetherspoons, as are most of them, this one has a little more character than some I've been to. Same great value, nice selection of local ales and decent food!

Great food no complaints on that.....just wished the bar staff listened when giving my order then they wouldn't have got my food order wrong

No complaints at all! Food always arrives hot and tastes delicious and service is always great. Asked for a appletiser but they didn’t have one so was substituted for a lemonade with apple juice, tasted brill. Will always come to Spoons from now on!

quiet pub-like spoons, average experience. food was above average spoons quality - came quick and and not too cold. although, we asked for a tea spoon for a child and apparently they have none - she ended up eating ice cream with a straw

Very pleasant place for a late lunch. My mixed grill was delicious and the lady manager was polite, friendly and professional.

Part of the JD Wetherspoons chain, an old pub in the centre of Devizes. Staff are friendly, helpful and efficient. It's the standard fare of a Wetherspoons. I had the breakfast and unlimited coffee, which is a bargain. Breakfast is very good. I think the best of any chain. App ordering makes things simple. There are also plugs for charging phones or I guess laptops.

We did not stop for food just drinks we enjoyed the time we spent there

Our new local as just moved onto the canal Staff are friendly and attentive Food was great and great value for money

We enjoyed a nice breakfast here, good atmosphere & friendly staff 🤗

Quite mucky, sticky tables. Food as expected at a Wetherspoons so not disappointed but venue not great. Kids running about unsupervised

Went here to stodge up after a day of cycling. Absolutely got what we wanted. Incredibly quickly served hearty food and drinks in a clean and welcoming pub, for less than £20 for the both of us. Will go again when stopping in Devizes on cycling adventures.

Typical weatherspoons good choice of beers did not have food

Good priced breakfast, refills on coffee and tea.

My first ever Wetherspoons experience! It did not disappoint!!

Called in at lunchtime today,had a lovely meal and drink,and was pleasantly surprised by the service and cleanliness,quick service and very pleasant staff.congratulations to the Silk Mercer In Devizes.we’ll be back

Very good service use you where ever we go good value for money

Food was good and nicely priced. Good atmosphere too

Preiswert, Essen o.k nicht weit ins Hotel neben an

Popped in on the Sunday evening whilst we were in Devizes Usual selection of well priced beers /ciders/wines available Had a few small plate snacks which were really good Quite busy as most other pubs in Devizes close early on Sunday night but place had really nice feel about it and service was prompt Would certainly recommend for a visit

One of the better spoons and enjoyed the hot food which arrived very quick

Cheap and cheerful if your in a hurry

Good plain food very well cooked and well priced. Will return

The best steak and kidney pudding I have had in years, easily the best meal I have ever had at a Wetherspoons (and I have had quite a few) well done chefs! The pic speaks volumes 😁

Due to the coronavirus, social distancing and hygiene practices were put into place, which I think was handled very well here 😊

Good location, reasonable food at low prices.

A good JDW pub in the centre of Devices ... As always good food and drink, as you would expect !

Nothing special. Pleasant staff

Had one of their breakfasts for the first time, just recently, and it was absolutely brilliant. Everything was cooked to perfection, the service was really quick. The endless supply of tea/coffee was a real plus as well. All in all, the whole experience was excellent and I will definitely be doing that more often. Also I love their app, because it allows you to order from your table, and the staff just bring your order to your table, without the faffing about of queuing for ages. Totally a win win win with me.

Cosy and warm . Prompt service too .

I quite often visit this wetherspoons,real ale is well kept , and the food and service is good.

Dirty tables, terrible service and the food was even worse. Avoid at all costs
