The Stamford Post - JD Wetherspoon in South Kesteven

The Stamford Post is a great looking pub from outside and doesn't disappoint on the inside. Unlike most Wetherspoons, the tables are set a good distance apart so that you can enjoy your meal without feeling like you are sitting too close to the people on the next table. The tables were cleared quite quickly between sittings, and our food came out very quickly. The food that we had was very good and still very hot when served to us. The pub was very busy, and my only complaint was there was a lack of sauces available, and when I asked, I was told to go and ask someone at another table if I could use theirs, which seemed unhelpful, but overall the pub was very good.

Lovely fish & chips for lunch outside in the sun! Order at the bar, a bit of a wait since your vying for others with drink orders. Busy day, but the food was promptly brought to the table (the right table, thankfully, since someone had jimmied the table number out!). Prices and food quality were good. All in all we'd go back, especially if a nice day and can sit outside to enjoy the Stamford background.

Nice atmosphere and decor. Has a small, sunny sitting out area and tons of space inside.

Really busy pub, only called for drinks, it was heaving, but the service was still good

Very open style place, but good atmosphere. Great ales, and staff at the bar very quick. Overall, a good one!

Lovely food, good value, quick service

Very large open plan pub. Outside seating at the front. Good location in the centre of town. Excellent selection of drinks. Great food options. Fantastic value for money. Friendly and helpful staff.

Lovely looking pub. Nice staff Quick service

Typicall spoons food Great price Great if you trying to find it lays back from road toilets upstairs bit steep

Excellent choice of drinks and plenty of seating both indoors and out.

Breakfast from £2.99?? You can't knock it. We actually went for the large, full English with tea and coffee, £16 between us, bargain! Staff were friendly and helpful. The tables were clean and tidy. I've only put 2 stars for atmosphere, this is because at 08:15 there was only six people in a very spacious diner, but I could imagine a decent atmosphere later in the day, or at a weekend. The food was pretty good considering the price, and it was plenty large enough for our needs, it was also cooked and presented well, with a speedy service. Will return.....

No food on my visits to there the service is always extremely slow in this spoons. Slower than most other spoons. This place is always rammed so they are obviously doing something right but they do seem to have crammed too many tables in to this one.

Appalling service, food was cold sent it back 2 times. Workers are constantly moody and pressure you too order

Place was dirty. Cutlery was dirty. My order was mixed up. Last time I shall come to weatherspoons

Good food no frills but fresh and hot excellent pint

A lovely market town with a fantastic spoon with a fast friendly service with great beers etc thanks

Amazing pub, great staff except I am quite young I was waiting at the bar for at least 20 mins and Amy came over and told me that I need an adult so thank you Amy.

Up there as one of the best spoons in the UK.

Stamford is a small city.very clean.i couldn't believe it.so clean.people were very kind. Lots of small shops like the Victorian age..very historic place.lovely old thatched cottages dating back in 1485.

My steak and kidney pudding was a disappointment as the peas were lukewarm and the mash had crisped from sitting too long under a lamp to keep warm. The pie itself was fine, as were the Chicken Strips my wife ordered; but an irritation of mine is tables left uncleared for a long time after diners have left - and this was a really poor example of table clearing. I have been a fan of Wetherspoons for years as great value for money establishments, but returning to the UK after a year overseas has really surprised me - the three different Wetherspoons we've visited (The Elizabeth of York, The Post of Stone and The Stamford Post) have been extremely disappointing. Standards and quality have very noticeably dropped.

Friendly staff, quick service, pleasant surroundings, substantial, well cooked and tasty breakfast, free coffee refills (I had 3 mugs) and a total price of £8.30. That's amazing value, and I don't say that often.

If you love Wetherspoons like me, you'll enjoy a visit here to pass away an hour or two with a cold pint and a cheap meal.Staff were quick to serve and friendly, highly recommend if you're in the area.

Stamford Post - Wetherspoons truly nails the perfect blend of modern comfort and traditional charm. From the moment you walk in, the friendly staff make you feel right at home, adding a personal touch to your visit. The decor is pleasant and thoughtfully curated, with a mix of modern accents and classic details that give the space a warm, inviting atmosphere. One of the standout features is the ambient beer garden – an ideal spot to enjoy a refreshing pint under the summer sun. Whether you’re popping in for a quick drink or settling in for a leisurely meal, the overall vibe is relaxed yet sophisticated. If you’re in Stamford and looking for a spot that balances contemporary style with a nod to tradition, this Wetherspoons is a must-visit!

Lovely place waited along time to be served at the bar. Have not eaten here but will go back to give them another go

The service here is what makes this place exceptional. Not overly crowded, and you can actually have a conversation here. I love it

Always busy with a lovely atmosphere. Pleasant, friendly and helpful staff. Great decor, huge seating area. Love clean and well equipped toilets. Food and drinks are always good.

A nice relaxed Sunday afternoon venue

This doesn't look like a spoons from the outside, nearly missed it. Great inside plenty of seating, food was OK, few things missing on menu. Came quite quick, great value.

Stopped for breakfast after Rutland Water Parkrun. Egg yolks were hard, the tomatoes uncooked apart from a blackened surface, baked beans cold and the Twinings Everyday tea was weak but more likely because the water is delivered not hot enough from the dispenser.

Bar service is so slow it's unbelievable. Bar staff never know who's next (it's part of their job!), no one seems to know what they're doing, they treat customers like they are an annoyance. Yes it's cheap. I suppose that's the price you pay. Avoid. Unless you're skint.

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.

Excellent had a breakfast and coffee for £2.99

Really enjoyed our visit. Pub was busy but staff were attentive and helpful. Food arrived quickly.

Very good place to go, had lunch there with drinks and it was spot on. Staff were lovely, toilets clean.

Very good food and a good lots of different beers and very friendly staff

Upon my Fantastical and Spectacular visit to this very Beautiful and Historical Establishment, that used to be a Local Newspaper Printing Company most of the Local Stamfordians would have known. The Herald and Post none other. One of my Favourite. One of the Lovely JD WETHERSPOONS!!!!. Excellent Pub, very Good Restaurant to have some really Good at your table. Customer Service the Best. All round, what a Great place to come and visit and have a Good Pint of Beer.I do visit vety often when i come into Stamford.

Jonathan/Market Deeping. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Couldn't get the app to take my order. Everybody having same problem so 10 deep at the bar. Left.

The service received in this particular Wetherspoons is very poor. The tables are never cleaned after each customer. Whenever you walk in the tables are piled high with dirty plates etc.The meals are always cold. The staff need to be sent to train in other Wetherspoons i.e. Manchester York Sheffield Peterborough and even Great Yarmouth were the service is far superior

A fantastic and affordable pub located right in the centre of Stamford, offering excellent value for money and charming surroundings that make it a delightful place to visit. This Wetherspoons establishment stands out for its welcoming atmosphere and the fact that it provides a quality experience without breaking the bank. Whether you’re looking to enjoy a drink with friends, relax after a long day, or simply soak in the ambiance, this pub is a perfect choice. The area is bustling with activity, making it an ideal spot to people-watch and enjoy the vibrant community spirit. With its convenient location and the promise of a satisfying visit, this pub is truly a low cost gem in Stamford.

The bar staff shout 'who's next?' all the time, which causes issues as no one really knows who's next as it is a big bar, also it's not up to the patrons to tell the bar staff who's next, it's one of the main the jobs of the bar staff. It's the worst place I've been for doing this. It's makes going to the bar stressful.

Lovely interior decor. Good location within Stamford. Typical Wetherspoons for cheap and cheerful food.

This is the worst experience I've ever had with a weatherpoons the food came out cold they brought desserts out with food which then meant they was cold didn't bring cutlery so had get ourselves deffo wouldn't go to this one again

I when in today the food was cold hope next time will be better just one coffee machine long queue

Reasonably priced for breakfast

Good little Wetherspoons in middle of Stamford

They are not dog friendly even outside in beer garden

Great food and service will go back again

Probably the cleanest and well kept 'Spoons I've ever been in. Service was quick and the food was good (for a spoons).

Called in here today at 11.30 am for brunch,it wasn't too busy for market day and found a table easily,ordered two Sausage butties,they were brought to us after about ten minutes they were both luke warm and the bread slightly dry on one side through being under the lights on the gantry waiting to be brought to us,no one asked us how our meal was although others were,it filled us up but wasn't very enjoyable.

Like all wetherspoons it's fine you know what to expect very busy. Stamford is a very nice village to wander round. We get our pork pies from there

Decent food, great staff and atmosphere

It's a weatherspoons, so it's alright. Does the job. It's much bigger than it appears.

"today I visited this restaurant at Stamford and although it was extremely busy, I was impressed by how well the staff managed the rush. Despite the crowd, the service was quick, and the food was definitely worth the wait. The portions were generous, and the prices offered great value for money. If you're looking for a place with efficient service and tasty dishes that won’t break the bank, this is the spot to try! Just be prepared for a bit of hustle and bustle."

Great wetherspoons in the center of Stamford

Called in many times for lunch while working, 'Curry Thursday' is always good, full meal includes sides and a drink for about £12. It can get busy on certain days so expect a wait if it's Friday. Overall a good experience, good food and cheap drinks, especially their unlimited coffee which are great for a pensioners budget.

Why is the food always luke warm Sausage bacon,beans,mushrooms and even a fresh egg is just lukewarm The cappuccino from the machine is again lukewarm It baffles me that such a simple meal can be so difficult to get right

A typical Spoons but is a lovely historic town.. so cool

It's cheap and very cheerful. Great place to eat and meet up on the cheap

This is what it is a Witherspoon's. Food is good value though it can be cold & have had to send it back a number of times but the staff are always helpful & nothing is a problem. It's quite noisy there at times which is why I give it 3 stars for the atmosphere. Can't be beaten for pub grub value.

It was a mistake to go to this place and order food. When you say that McDonald's is a fancy restaurant compared to what you were served for almost the same money, it must be really bad. I ordered a hamburger with fries and what I got was a joke. Dry bun without sauces, a few pieces of lettuce and two thin slices of tomato and disgusting, stinking, dripping with old fat meat. I sent it back immediately and got a good chickenburger instead. When I was leaving I looked at the grill where they fry meat and vegetables and I felt sick because it was very dirty so I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

We sat outside and just people watched and laughed with about 8 of us enjoying the sunny afternoon

When I was in boarding school, this was the local newspaper company; so it is very pleasing to see they kept a lot of the history visible for you as you enjoy the ambiance. Talking of which, it's a busy spot for the younger crowd.

Again nice place staff welcoming atmosphere good

Huge place very touristic oriented, average food, it's okay if youre on a big group and have no other option .

A cosy Wetherspoon. Very good atmosphere and service.

Usual Wetherspoon's menu. Plenty of choice at reasonable prices and served quickly.

We ate here after a long day travelling , came upon this lovely place and couldn't fault anything very competitive prices and family friendly but not too noisy (makes a change being able to talk without having to shout 😊) so enjoyable we made a second visit can definitely recommend we'll be there again when in the area. Thanks again.

It's a spoons decent enough but the breakfast is always Luke warm 😄 in all Spoon's lol

An afternoon cod chips mushy peas and pint of Abbot .... excellent!

Excellent pint of Doom Bar . Thai noodles delicious......

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.

Not much atmosphere, but big, not crowded, and can't fault the prices.

not to bad, nice staff food ok 👍🏽

not impressed with food etc app wouldn't work only went there because asks wasn't open

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.

One of the better Wetherspoons. Toilets are still 2km in the sky though.

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.

Curry club on a Thursday. What's not too like!

A small pint of cold cider. Pure pleasure.

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.

We had a brilliant time & the food was lovely

Great food and great beer at really reasonable prices

One of the nicer spoons, it has better staff than Corby (by a mile) and the food is usually correct most of the time.

Anna the bar waitress is amazing she had a smile and great ora about her she mad our vist absolutely fantastic and amazing I can't explain. She went up and beyond to help. Nothing was to big of a problem. Thank you so much. You deserve a pay rise x

Double standards here I’m afraid! One night it’s OK to have fun, the next night, please be quiet! Toilet cleanliness is shocking!

One of the nicer Wetherspoons with an outdoor seating area and lovely views. £4 for a sausage, egg and bacon bagel and unlimited coffee, you just can't beat it

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..

Took our Granddaughters here for tea It is what it is

Food was good ( breakfast ) but not very hot!

Quite a bit loud for my liking, but was a Saturday night and a hen party. Only a pit stop before our drive home

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.

My Partner and I went shopping in Stamford yesterday and we went into The Stamford Post, Sheep Street, The food was good it was clean & tidy and the staff were polite & friendly, We will go back here again

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.

Lacking atmosphere both times we visited, quick drink one evening & for breakfast. Staff were very good. Breakfast was standard fare

Atmosphere good, food not so good this is the second time I have not been happy with the food, so last time I will be eating here. Ordered tuna cheese melt panini and chips, chips were nearly cold and panini wasn't much better. Staff were nice though.

Nice English breakfast with a range of options, and unlimited hot drinks. Night atmosphere as well—it is the old newspaper office refurbished and has great vibe to it.

It's a spoons not to bad plenty of seating

Excellent even though really busy service was quick and with a smile, food was really tasty grandson wanted another burger 😋

We were in a group of mates having a day out in Stamford. Went into the Spoons & enjoyed the drinks. Noticed the decor....saw the unpainted area & wondered why it just had not been finished off... it'd take 3 more strokes. C'mon Spoons, get it painted!
