The Society Rooms in Maidstone

What can you say, it's a 'Spoons', cheap drinks, cheap but tasty food. Conveniently located

Good food good location and very friendly staff

Great place for family to sit in a quiet atmosphere and enjoy Sunday breakfast. It is very specious especially with tall ceilings and windows all around . There is a dedicated space for those who want to sit and enjoy themselves on their own or with friends and family. Food is delicious and you have options to choose from a variety of dishes (I'm talking about breakfast ) my kids love American style breakfast with pancakes 😁 Me and wife normally choose English breakfast keeps me filled up 😁 Prices are friendly and not going to make a hole in your pocket . My kids especially enjoy the refilled option for hot drinks chocolate to be specific. Breakfast for 4 of us cost around £26

Typical Wetherspoons breakfast experience. Enjoyed it. Nice window seat for people watching.

Had a great breakfast here on Saturday. Staff were busy but very friendly. Food was great and for that price you can't go wrong.

Cheap and cheerful. As to be expected.

Regularly have breakfast here and have no complaints. The range of food is great and the prices are fantastic. The staff are lovely and helpful too. Highly recommend for breakfast or lunch.

Delicious food and excellent customer service

Went in to get a take away coffee. It took a while before I was served. It looked like only two people actually serving. The girl behind the bar finally asked ''Who's next?'' even though I had been standing right in front of her, she was looking at someone next to me. I told her I was. This seemed to niggle her so I got a brief and curt response but was only able to decipher ''...at the end of the bar for your latte.'' I stood at the end of the bar waiting for the drink. I watched the two girls behind the bar and neither of them was making a coffee. I saw a man standing nearby and asked him if he knew where to wait for hot drinks. I went back to the bar and by an amazing coincidence, the girl who was ill-mannered some minutes before was saying to a customer ''I thought he was first... (Not these exact words). I said ''No, I was.'' She glared at me and replied ''I'm not talking to you,'' attempting to say she was talking about another, similar occurrence. Mmmmm, quelle surprise. I returned to the end of the bar and the man I spoke to before pointed to a machine and explained it was a do-it-yourself. He told me he had asked for some milk for his tea and was still waiting. Eventually someone appeared with a take away cup and milk. While he waited for his milk and I made the drink, we spoke about the amount of young people these days being disrespectful and not having the ability to communicate effectively or given the customer service training to be able to do so.

This venue is on the ground floor level with a large outside seating area that is uncovered. The pub is spacious and light due to the numerous glass panels around the outside. It's not a typical Wetherspoons building and we found it soul less & bland. However it was extremely busy at 3pm on a Saturday so it obviously suits lots of people. Didn't eat here but the Stella was good. My wife didn't finish her Merlot as it had a funny taste. This Spoons would suit the younger generation and I prefer the Muggleton inn just down the road as it's more traditional & has character.

Busy at 2pm. Stopped for coffee and ice cream.

Nice clean pub with excellent staff.

Nice Wetherspoons very close to Maidstone East station. Had Black Dragon cider on when visited.

Drinks are reasonably priced, as is the food, good service from the friendly team.

The staff are hard working and honest, i left my debit card on the bar and they returned it. The food is good value and quality.

Nice place to have a drink and some food to eat. I love the beers in here. Good prices

Ordered an American cheeseburger, still looking for the cheese! How can you get this wrong?

Nice big caged open fire in there, really sets the mood! It's a wetherspoons so prices are perfect food is standard, nice place to chill out and have a cold one

Great food and fantastic service 👌

A nice stop at the end of my days walk on the North Downs Way. I chose the Baked Potato with a Birra Moretti which cost £8.12. A good light meal which filled the gap nicely

Absolutely love having a pint here or a lunch 😀

Fairly standard wetherspoons exactly as expected

It's a wetherspoons so the beer and food is inexpensive. Good range of beers and ciders. Popular during day and evening

Becoming ever more popular this Wetherspoons provides good quality food (Michelin chef give them 7 out of 10) and drinks at a very reasonable price. Left wing comedians regularly mock Wetherspoons as they dine in expensive suave restaurants but regular folk appreciate the good value offered by Wetherspoons. The only problem nowadays is, occasionally, getting a table without a short wait.

Not particularly impressed. Had their big breakfast on several.occasiknns and consistently disappointed. Beans, mushroom (single small mushroom that is), bacon, toast and sausage all cold. The two eggs were only 1/2 eggs as most of the egg white had been chopped away?! Toast was barely toasted. Bacon was tough, like it had been cooked to order 3 days ago. So easily improved by serving food hot, not serving half eggs and more than 1 small mushroom.

Came in for a drink before going to a dress fitting. Nice drinks, fairly decent atmosphere considering how early it was. Staff were quick to take my order. Place was clean and in good condition.

Well priced food and drink of good quality and served promptly.

Great staff, welcoming and friendly. Service was excellent

Good pub. App works great if you don't want to goto the bar.

Bar and drinking area cold,downstairs toilets much warmer wanted to stay there ,staff okay beer good

Refused to be served a pint of Corona unless It was served with a wedge of lime !! I’m allergic to citrus fruits …. Unbelievably apparently it’s company policy that they can’t serve Corona without the wedge of lime on the glass !!!!!

You know what you're getting here. Decent priced meals with a drink, well recommended for dropping and getting some beers and decent scoff.

Only thing wrong with eating here when we did was it was matchday for Maidstone United and the place was packed to the rafters... Food was good despite the pressure the kitchen was under, full marks to them

Right next to Maidstone East train station at the beginning of Week Street. Comfy and comfort food for an astonishingly low price really. For cheerful and reasonably cheap good food and and excellent range of drinks, it's hard to beat :)

A friendly JD Wetherspoon pub. Staff at the bar were very attentive

Went for breakfast this morning and they ended up getting my order wrong. The server's attitude was that I hadn't been charged extra for their mistake so not to worry (no attempt to correct the error). My food wasn't even lukewarm, so had clearly been sat there for a while. My experience was rather disappointing as the building itself was quite nice and in a convenient location.

It's one of the better Weatherspoons. Friendly staff, quick service. Always easy to grab a table

Good location, cosy experience.

Tasty food, fair prices, place to go!

Not really my favourite place to go. OK for a quick drink whilst waiting for the train.

Food good and staff generally very friendly, the only negative is that service can be a bit slow at times and the queue for the coffee machine can be long at times

As all Weatherspoons very good value for money nice selection of drinks and food. If you use their app you can order and pay at your table. Great value , why go elsewhere

Great price, fantastic deals, fast service

It deserves 5* because of the prompt and cheerful service. Okay, the food may not be of top quality but for what they charge it's good. Ideal place to meet family and their kids during the day.

Very busy but food came quickly.

Friendly staff and food was good too!

We went here for a family meal (group of 8 including 2 x kids). We sat down around 6.20pm and had a couple of drinks whilst we awaited everyone to arrive. At 7.25/30 we ordered our food. The waitress came over at around 7.40 and advised us that our food wouldn't be with us until after 8pm and because we had kids with us the order will be cancelled. Apparently their policy is that kids aren't allowed in the restaurant after 8pm! Wow...No signs anywhere stating this, no advice on the app as you're ordering KIDS meals at 7.25/30pm, no communication from any of the staff constantly walking past. She said she would refund the order (which still hasn't been refunded). How can you stop serving kids at 8pm? 8pm is dinner time for a lot of families. We've never had any issues in here in all the 12 years we've been coming. You've lost our business from now onwards. Shame, all it would have taken is for one of the staff to point this out when delivering our drinks (including kids drinks) or walking past.

Staff does not remove dirty dishes in a timely manner

Lovely pub friendly and professional staff nice atmosphere came here twice in a ten day period of visited from Staffordshire. The second time I came there was a incident where a 24 year old lad was talking to my underage cousin in a creepy way a member of staff noticed it and reported it to his Manager this was dealt with effectively and staff removed the guy from the pub immediately asking my cousin if she was ok multiple times it was reassuring to know that that it was dealt with so professionally big shout out to gabby the Manager !

Me and my family have been going for meals here for years and yesterday while having a meal with my kids my youngest had multiple seizures, the staff were amazing and went above and beyond to help , making us feel safe and supported , want to say a massive thank you to James and the lovely manager for making my child feel safe at a very scary time , usually it puts her off when she has seizures somewhere but will definitely continue to come back , thank you guys xxx

We like Wetherspoons. You know exactly what you're getting.. A reasonable price for food and drink.

The app doesn't work for ordering at all. Curry was OK but the naan was pretty awful.

On a chilly Sunday morning, this is a fab place to warm up with a big breakfast. Nice buzzy n busy atmosphere and staff really cheerful n helpful 👍

Quiet atmosphere relax good food

I am a support worker and took my clients here ! The waiter was very rude and this caused upset for my autistic client !!

Good value breakfast. Very handy for the railway station.

Great prices friendly atmosphere 👌

No question about it that the place is always lit and enjoyable to hang out with friends. Very nice service and plenty of bartenders. Food is always great

Nothing really too bad about the place but is obviously in the center of Maidstone, so can sometimes be a bit of a mixed crowd in there, and often very busy. Atmosphere isn't brilliant as a lot of the tables are very close together.

Always clean, fast and helpful barstaff.

Lovely place to relax and enjoy, very clean and very spacious.

A big thank you to the member of staff that realised a girl alone was having a rough day. He gave the time to talk to me about what was happening with me on a busy Friday night and even came back to check on me and gave some great advice to help me through it. I don’t know his name but he is an absolute asset to the team and I won’t hesitate to ho back because of this

It's a spoons what more can I say

Despite the fact that there are enough staff working, the tables are always dirty, and by that I mean that the waiters forget to spray and wipe

Love this place. Highly recommended 👌

Lovely friendly pub nice and modern

Heerlijk betaalbaar eten en drinken. Service verschilt nog wel eens

Great food at decent prices. Good portions

Can't beat spoons for pint and lunch

Food was all microwaved, ordered 4 plates of food and only two come to the table and then when we said something about it to a manager they said we have to go pay again even tho we paid for everything we ordered, rude staff never had nothing like it in a restaurant lady at bar was nice but had no idea! The man was honestly so rude left us shocked, he could have responded I. A helpful way but was rude of the bat !

Worst place ever. Had to order a different meal bc of the slow worker , The man that was serving was extremely rude.

Typical wetherspoons. Clean and friendly

One of the best Wetherspoons I have been to. Staff are attentive and caring, food and drinks were brilliant and the pub was clean and well kept!

Best spoons I've been to in Kent

Service was quick. Staff were friendly. The food was nice, but the mash was overheated and dry. That being said, I had a lovely time and will visit again.

Poor food, poor service. Unless you are everyday customer here you get over looked very easily

Bit too noisy for me, but usual witherspoons good deals for drink

Good beer at reasonable prices. Nice clean environment. Getting a bit tired now tho.

Relaxed atmosphere. Chilled vibes throughout. Definitely order the curry. The clearing and cleaning of tables is not great at all and a touch gross. The attitude of the staff- depends who you get but overall I'd say very average.

It's a Wetherspoons! You're either love it or hate it!!!!

Lovely place ,great atmosphere, pleasant staff

Once again I’ve popped in to my meal befor work, neesha the waiter was very polite, always made sure I was ok very polite women, bar staff very fast at service witch is nice

Ok for a quick bite whilst shopping. Fast and convenient table service using the weatherspoons app. Food is ok, and prices are very good.

Great family pub Restaurant. Friendly staff.

Not a bad place for a cheap drink.

Really nice atmosphere, plenty of space both inside and out. Friendly staff and the typical range of food and drinks you would expect to find at a Wetherspoons. All in all, a good night was had

It's just a typical Wetherspoons and all that usually entails

We walked right out of the Maidstone stone to find some place to have some relaxing and comforting food .. it was magical to locate this restaurant right close to high street and station ! We ordered some drinks and grills , pasta .. food was amazing and filling , utterly delicious .. a restaurant with a view and have been able to watch live ceremony on TV as well .. would recommend to anyone and must visit place again to cherish the refreshing food ! ❤️

Good drinks, nice food (especially desserts) fairly nice atmosphere but a little rowdy at peak times.

Typical Wetherspoons. Very popular so can be difficult to find a table at lunch times

Staff weren't friendly toward my disabilities

What has happened to the society room my family has been coming her for years but the last two weeks has been terribly disappointing last week all our food was cold I had jacket with tuna and a side order of cheese the amount of tuna I got could have fitted on my thumb nail. This week my mum's pizza was so dry it was ineffable. I had jacket potato with tuna and a side order of cheese but they sent hulomi cheese which had to be changed to cheddar but by the time it arrived I had finished my dinner they did replace mums pizza but it looked almost as dry as the first one.

Table service was slow just for one drink, food tasted terrible, even by a weather spoons standard

Spoons has got experience now and they give you very little food

Breakfasts are good and the staff are friendly.

Great breakfast and selection of drinks

It's nice to come here for a drink, it is slow at the weekend when it's busy but the staff always say sorry

Nice modern pub with an outside seating area in what seems like the courtyard of a building. Wonderful big windows surrounding the pub with a raised area in front. The staff were lovely and the Guinness was excellent as was the Doom Bar

A pleasant Wetherspoon's pub in Maidstone. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food and drink to the usual standard for the chain.

Table was clean, service friendly and fast. Cheap, filling good quality food. The CTM is my go-to favourite: my daughter had the spicy meat feast pizza, which was delicious (I might have scored a slice or 2....)
