A cut above the average Wetherspoon. Popped in for breakfast, but probably a one off visit for us due to our distance from Stamford, will definitely return though if we visit Stamford again.

Disappointed with food, have eaten here before, but although burger was nice, appearance of burger on large plate with chips scattered on it was not very appealing, chips bit hard in middle, either under or over cooked.

Waited patiently in a queue to order food for ages, my friends were served and then the dude just walked off and left me and everyone behind waiting for ages, by the time I got my back to the table all my mates already had their food and the woman that realised and served for the guy, seemed really mad about it. Also for some reason the app isn't working here which is pretty inconvenient.

My daughters are currently doing Ballet classes in Stamford so used the pub twice Saturday for breakfast & afternoon snacks & refreshments. Both visits were excellent despite the pub being a hub of busyness. The service was excellent, food hot & tasty & great Spoons value as usual especially compared with prices other establishments in town. The pub was clean & welcoming & has a pleasant atmosphere, Staff were warm & friendly. Definitely would recommend & will be returning.

I tried to hydrate my friends after a long hard day of work with 10 lime cordials but I got scolded for it. My nephew Roy always has a glass of milk before his bedtime at 6am otherwise he won't sleep (he's 35) but this never arrived so he wept all night long. Then i tried ordering a bag of apples and some tomato juice for my starving child maurice and promptly got kicked out for it. Maurice has now perished.

As with many Wetherspoons, the room was very large and therefore quite noisy. I prefer the Wetherspoons in Whittlesey as it's more cosy. That said - It lived up to the food and service quality one expects from this chain. I found the staff pleasant and the food very well cooked and presented..

The Stamford post is a decent Wetherspoons pub. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The interior is light and airy with a large glass roof over the main bar area. There is an excellent range of beers, lagers, and cider at very cheap prices. There are some excellent hand pulled cask conditioned real ales. The ones we sampled were in excellent condition when we visited. The food and service is as good as any Wetherspoons I have been to. There is an outside seating area at the front of the pub.

I was in wetherspoons and i saw staff members being rude to a customer after they ordered a vegetarian brunch, but was delivered a meat one instead. The customer said that she had been a vegetarian for her whole life, and explained that she would never have ordered a meat one, the staff said that she never ordered it and refused to change her meal. They were then very rude to her and called the police on her so she was removed and they took the money for the food which was never eaten, which made the poor customer go without a meal. I will NEVER be going back here again, staff are awful and rude to the customers!

Absolutely appalling experience at this pub. I was in having coffee with my partner, and there was an issue with a lady opposite us, she’d been delivered a full English breakfast (meat version) and politely told her waitress that she had ordered the veggie version. The waitress said she’d ask the girl on the bar who served her if she did or not in a really rude manner. She came back a few minutes later and told the lady she didn’t order the veggie version and absolutely would not change it without her paying for a new breakfast (even though the lady said a few times she was vegetarian for many years and would never select a meat option) she still said no. There was a very large scene that escalated from this, customers were shocked at what was happening and couldn’t believe the way the two staff members were treating the customer and her elderly companion. Absolutely will not return, was the worst ‘spoons’ I’ve ever visited.

It really bothers me in these places, both in Twickenham in Huntlow and here, that for coffee refills they only serve a big bucket that is for tea, because there is no other name for such a cup and you can't drink it and enjoy it, because they really have good coffee in an espresso cup.

I love a spoons like everyone else but what a experience. We went on Saturday night and we're greeted at the bar by a very skinny fellow that I could only describe as a stick insect, I believe he had lucky legs as I was surprised they were holding him up. He wore a very bright red jazzy shirt and had a tooth for every skill he had (none) I was worried about him pulling my pint and he didn’t look capable of pulling the door on the way in. I understand spoons is probably a big deal for him as he has probably reached his peak in life but being aggressive to customers is no way to be! he was a very rude 26 year old, I know his age because he repeatedly told me for no apparent reason? The “shift manager” didn't look capable of spelling manager or even his own name… he was also very rude and un tidy. He was very hairy and sweaty (if you are struggling to picture him think of hagrid from Harry Potter) The poor man couldn’t even keep his primark shirt tucked in. I have been in many many spoons in my life and this one is by far the worst! Kind regards XxXx

Situated in the very attractive town of Stamford, this 'spoons' echos the town by occupying an interesting ex local newspaper building. The interior of 'The Post' has interesting artifacts of its past history. Typical for 'spoons' there is vast range of drinks and food menu and a huge bar. We visited for lunch on a weekday, but had no problem finding a table inside and were served quickly under covid restrictions, there is an outside seating area to the front. We have visited many 'spoons' on our travels and this one is no different in that the staff were energetic, polite, helpful, friendly and eager to please. If you do visit, be warned that the parking situation in and around the town is dire!

Must admit we were disappointed with the meal tonight. We chose the Christmas dinner and the turkey was turned up at the edges, the mash was a minute portion which was lumpy and dry and I got 3 carrots and one small square of parsnip. We sat down at just before 7 on a Sunday evening, so perhaps we got the 'last knockings'. Usually, the service is fast and the food quality is quite good. I'd recommend not expecting what you see on the promo picture! The kids meals were fine, though.

Terrible service, food took over thirty minutes, arrived cold (all three dishes) and the “toast” was just slightly stale bread! Complained but clearly staff not bothered. Staff were just stood around doing nothing, we watched one order just getting cold on the service window, for over 20 minutes. Actually only thing that arrived warm was the child’s plate. Scorching hot plate on a child’s food!

The staff are great, enough space so you don't have to listen to stupid conversations. Food is mediocre but you pay for what you get. Vast inside seating with ample outdoor seating. They lock the disabled toilets to stop the lazy gits from using it (1) as main toilets are upstairs, if you need a pee then you need to head to the bar first to ask the staff to unlock the toilet for you. Full on humiliation awaits you. Parking nearby (free and paid) but uphill to the pub. Scraping 3🌟's
