Popped in here for the first time as I was wondering around the town on a visit . I rarely drink but it was a nice sunny day so thought I’d have one ! What a great building , full of character and a huge selection of food and drinks at fair prices . The barmaid could do with perking up a little . I don’t expect a 21 gun salute when I walk in but a bit more engagement would be nice . Other than that fine and recommended .

Back in Spoons and again, it's a 3.5 but friendly staff were working hard despite clearly being short staffed. Usual school friends reunion and although they don't live in Macclesfield, they were perfectly happy here, despite the fact we'd been in the excellent Chilli Banana on the last two occasions. Post after work crowd and the tables were unkempt. They were happy to clean one immediately. Ordered online, no issues, drinks arrived in good time. Sadly they had not had time to change the Abbot barrel but Doom is a good standby. Bought a round later and chuffed to see my favourite ale, Adnams Broadside. People moan about Wetherspoons on here but there's a reason it does good business. I'm pretty sure I was paying more than twice the price for Broadside, on a Chelsea away day in the Anglesey Arms 10 years ago. Food came in good time and two of us had the cod and chips, no complaints. As it was a special, cost £9 something and included a pint. Just need to get the tables tidied up and have a general clean round to maybe get a 5 sometime.

We were caravanning not far away so always check if there is a Wetherspoon nearby. It is good that they take over property which might end up derelict and turn them into lovely pubs like this one. My husband had the beef lasagne served with a salad which we hadn't noticed on the menu recently. We used to enjoy the vegetarian lasagne so I hope that goes back on the menu. I had 8 chicken wings served with a spicey dip, coleslaw and chips – there were a lot of chips so I shared some with my husband.

First time here and a minor error in the order rectified immediately so no complaints. Chef extremely apologetic and courteous. Never had a bad experience in JD's and as ever, it depends a lot on location as to the differing atmospheres. We'll be back that's for sure! .... second visit today. Went for lunch. Busy and service quite slow. Personally think thst the food quality has diminished in terms of quantity and quality. This is æsthetically one of nicest JDs I've been in and think it deserves a 'shske-up".

Had small dishes; fish, chips & mushy peas and all day brunch. Great sized portions. Food lovely and hot. Daughter said the fish and chips were as good as our chippy- high praise indeed. Just had soft drinks. Pub was fairly quiet which was great as daughter is autistic so struggles with crowds sometimes. Staff lovely and friendly.

I’m not going to tell you a lie, this place is disgusting. If you want to eat at a place with microwaved steak, vile and dirty carpets, sticky tables, and surrounded by 70 year old men having a pint or 10 at the ripe old time of 2pm, tgis place is for you. However, if you have any self respect or class in your body you should avoid coming here at all costs. This doesn’t count for friday nights after 8pm because the cocktail pitchers are absolutely scrumptious.

This branch of Spoons is central, local and accessible for us. I'd love it to have a refurb. I would be glad if we could receive piping hot food on heated plates. Whingeing out of the way. I like that there are different seating arrangements in various parts of the pub. I like the staff. I can take anyone there and they generally know what to expect. We enjoy meeting there, whether for a drink or food.

Asked them at the bar when we ordered out food if they would come and wipe the dirty table from the previous diners. No one came so we found a cloth st the end of the bar and fid it ourselves. We thought after waiting such a time fir our food that it would be hot but it was cold and the eggs were not edible. The yolks were solid

Went for a family lunch, 3 orders, 1-2 children each. 2 orders arrived. Didn't receive my kids order after 50 minutes. Spoke to a staff member (read until the end). He was very rude and refused to accept they had forgotten our order. Every excuse was used. He even said it was our fault as we "should have ordered and paid together" order still hadn't arrived after an hour so requested a refund. Cheekily only refunded the food and charged for the drinks. Took another polite note to say we only ordered drinks to accompany our food. Finally got a full refund. In reference to the start of this review the rude staff member I originally spoke to was in fact the manager, Nigel. (Just for reference as it was impossible to identify or request the manager, he has a man bun). The other staff were helpful and obviously over worked. Poor management as usual 😕

A local came up to the bar well after we did. When the barmaid finished serving who she was already serving, she then totally blanked myself and my son and asked the local what he was having. Totally out of order. As she plainly saw we were waiting. So we left and went over the road. Glad we did.

This example of the Wetherspoons pubs is close to the shopping center & tourist information office in Macclesfield. For those knowing Wetherspoons the layout felt familiar and ordering was easy. We visited on a Monday in summer school holidays. The place was quiet and finding a table easy. All our order - food and drinks - arrived at the same time. (Recently our experience at other Wetherspoons has been drinks arrive separately) Staff were quietly efficient too.

A tired and scruffy Wetherspoons. Full of 16 year olds on Friday & Saturday nights and is best avoided. Flat / stale ales which is standard Wetherspoons. It's cheap for a reason! Only worth having soft drinks which aren't overpriced like many pubs. Now fitted cctv in the toilets which is an invasion of privacy. Likely to get themselves in serious trouble unless it is removed promptly.
