The Steel Foundry in Sheffield

Usual selection of food and drink. Service at the bar was a little slow compared to normal. Food came quickly and was cold. Couldn't be bothered to complain as we were in a rush and couldn't be bothered to wait for food to be re-microwaved.

The Steel Foundry in Sheffield is a fantastic spot for a meal and a drink, whether you’re shopping at Meadowhall or just looking for a relaxed place to unwind. As a Wetherspoon pub, it offers great value, but what really stands out is the friendly atmosphere and efficient service. The interior is spacious and well-designed, with plenty of seating and a warm, welcoming vibe. Despite being inside a busy shopping centre, it never feels cramped, and the option to sit in the enclosed beer garden at the back is a nice touch—especially on a sunny day. The food is exactly what you’d hope for: tasty, well-priced, and served quickly. The chicken burger and chicken bites are particularly good, and the extensive menu means there’s something for everyone. Ordering through the app is super convenient, making the whole experience even smoother. The staff deserve a special mention—they’re always friendly, helpful, and keep things running efficiently even during busy times. It’s clear they take pride in their work, and that makes a big difference. Overall, The Steel Foundry is a great choice for a casual, affordable meal with a good selection of drinks. I’ll definitely be visiting again!

Nice pint nice staff. Needs more tables and regular cleaning of those tables it can get messy quickly. The toilets are of good standard

Better during week if you like it quite not had food so can't comment

Got nothing on your plate handful off chip burgers was small 😒

It's a wetherspoons. Does what it says on tin

Full as usual, ordered on app was served pretty quick

Stopped for breakfast, had a sausage sandwich, and had a refill tea. The service was really quick, and the staff were friendly too. Plenty of people in so just managed to get a seat and would definitely go back 👍

Been coming here for breakfast about once every couple of weeks for more than a decade. Food is always great and priced well. Staff are excellent and it is easy to get to. Wheelchair accessiblity is great with plenty of tables to able to use with thr wheelchair.

Really enjoyed our food and the staff lady was really nice will go there again

Good place for food and drink good prices

Buy a hot drink and refills are free

Great food friendly staff and great atmosphere

Had a small english breakfast, had to order tomatoes as an extra, and no toast (assumed it would come with) Tea & coffee is self serve, ended up with a decaf tea as no label on jars, only on the teabag tag that i didn't see till i sat down with it.

Good food, fast service but was very busy when we were in and had to wait for tables which we had to clear ourselves.

Ordered hot chocolate in refillable cup for my daughter but after it was delivered found Not hot chocolate available poor service.

Good food quick service and friendly staff

awful food not busy messy tables

For me the best Wetherspoons in South Yorkshire

Poor this pub the people his rude the people of this whetherspoons are rude the workers I mean not punters small place menu on food not great compared to other places avoid with all cost

My food was relatively cold by the time it reached me however, the staff are very polite and it's a very clean place to visit

Same as every other Wetherspoons Pub, busy on a Saturday lunchtime as it is in a Shopping centre but was able to find a suitable table, service was fairly quick, large selection of Beers & Lagers, lots of food deals on depending on which day you go, disabled access, not sure about Toilets as didn't use them.

Worthingtons £1.50 a pint!! What's not to like, I had chicken tikka massalla very tasty

We visit the steel foundry at least once a month and every time it's a great afternoon out, the staff are always very friendly and helpful aswell as being very hard working, the quality of the of my usual lager (stella) is always 100%, the speed at which your order arrives from the app is amazing which means your food is always piping hot,all in all I would highly recommend a visit to this place even if your not already at meadowhall for something else.

The staff are very good here! Always very attentative towards everyone! Very professional too!

Portions are getting smaller at witherspoon!

Absolutamente espléndido. Personal limpio, ordenado y atento, la comida se sirve rápidamente y caliente. Sin duda visitaría de nuevo gracias

It is what it is Spoons in a shopping centre.

Good little pub, just a struggle to get a table.

Poor service. Took my daughter in for her birthday with her friend just for her to have her drink snatched away by this woman. She embarrassed my daughter in front of the whole restaurant. We will not be returning, she took the drink and drank it herself. Both left in tears.

Great food at reasonable prices. Large drink selection and free close parking. The noise from the mall did annoy us but closing the door helped. I would definitely recommend pre booking as it can get very busy.

Ordered ramen bowl saw a friends asked if we could change as bpwl.of liquid and spaghetti hardly any veg ,i asked for egg no chillies came no egg 3 of us werent happy told manager it was basically hoy water and spaghetti got no joy no refund or offer to change or send back ,rubbish ! Never again wetherspoons not a first time poor food .

I ordered ramen bowls for myself, my mum, and my auntie, but they were horrible. There were no vegetables, just a bowl of spaghetti pasta instead of noodles. When I informed the manager, he insisted that they were noodles and said there was nothing he could do. It was absolutely disgraceful, and we ended up going hungry.

Friendly staff popped in for one had two a good spoons

La hamburguesa de pollo festiva era absolutamente encantadora, al igual que el “premio festivo” de galletas y rubia crema. Estaba muy ocupado y la única mesa que quedaba estaba en la entrada. La única desventaja fue que nos cobraron doble por nuestro pedido en la aplicación, pero nos devolvieron el dinero después de unos días.

I just needed a good pint, and wetherspoons delivered. Farmers Belgian Blue on draught... Really hit the spot...

Quick food stop alternative to food hall. Busy but great staff cover and quick tabke service.

Fuimos a desayunar. Ordenado como siempre en la aplicación. Pedí lo que tenemos habitualmente. Pero hoy sacaron la comida en un plato. ¡Muy raro! Cuando dije que uno era vegetariano y el otro vegetariano celíaco nos miraron en blanco. Entonces dije sin gluten. No, sigue en blanco. El personal de la cocina comenzó entonces a mano a separar la comida en otro plato. Contaminación cruzada total de todos los alimentos y normas de higiene alimentaria ignoradas. Eventualmente después de que dijera que no podemos comer eso, me culparon y se fue a la papelera.

It was awful the gammon looked like it came from tescos shelf’s I have more meat on my calf service was terrible and no help was given when asked for

If you have a stutter and having a good time, yes I'd had a few, but was not drunk,went to the bar person, she refused to serve said cos have got a stutter I was drunk. Also when spoke to liam the manager. he said same. However when this was reported to head office. The allegation was denied. Avoid this place if you have a speech impedanent

Los chimpancés llegaron fríos y parecían haberlos tirado juntos. Personal no dispuesto a ayudar. Evitar a toda costa. Horrible experiencia gastronómica

Prices spot on how can you knock it these days for £1.79 for a beer?

It's a spoons. What are you expecting? Never had a bad experience with the food, staff are lovely one and all, beer is (mostly) cheap and I can sit here enjoying an audiobook after work without someone interrupting me. I'd consider myself a regular now, I work in Meadowhall and I've been coming here after most shifts. Nice, easy going watering hole.

That dint carge inuf thay do a good job

Met friends here as it is central

Reasonably priced, friendly atmosphere only downside not always easy to get seated as always extremely busy

A decent Spoonz in meadow hall to get away from the shops !

My friend went in this pub this week and went to the bar because it was her turn. She suffers with a stammer when she gets nervous and the person behind the bar refused to serve her and said that she was drunk. Absolutely disgusting

As you would expect. Value for money and great service from the staff.

Popular eatery with shoppers. A little cramped for my liking. Food doesn't take long. The fish was quite flavourless. Portion was filling.

Love weatherspoons in general. What you see is what you get. This place however stood out. Easily the worst weatherspoons food I’ve ever had. I ordered the Tennessee “gourmet” burger. Honestly was a cold bun with half a sliced onion and two burnt paper thin burgers. Wasn’t sure how to react, a waiter saw me and took it away agreeing it wasn’t up to standard. Moments later a manager approached to ask why I had returned the burger to which I answered “because it wasn’t worth the cost” and began explaining. She wanted specifics, as if my answer wasn’t enough to justify returning the burger, only for my partner to step in and say “it was burnt” I got a fish and chips as a replacement. It was as bad.

A bit cramped and far too rammed full of people for five of us to sit together, but I was amazed to receive my food in just a minute regardless. One can never go wrong with any Weatherspoon's.

Wetherspoon at Meadowhall Mall, Sheffield is a great spot to relax and grab a bite while exploring the bustling shopping center. The restaurant offers a welcoming ambiance with attentive and friendly staff who ensure a pleasant experience from start to finish. The food, while not extraordinary, is decent and satisfies a variety of tastes. The menu features classic pub favorites, and the portion sizes are fair for the price. While some dishes could be more flavorful, the overall quality is acceptable, making it a good option for casual dining. One of the major perks of this location is the convenience of free parking within the Meadowhall Mall complex, which is a big plus for shoppers and visitors. As expected, the restaurant can get quite busy, especially during peak hours, so it’s worth planning your visit accordingly. What makes this Wetherspoon location stand out is its accessibility and value for money. Whether you’re in for a quick meal or a leisurely break, the vibrant atmosphere and efficient service make it worth a visit. If you find yourself at Meadowhall Mall, Wetherspoon is a reliable choice for a satisfying meal with the added convenience of free parking. It’s not a fine-dining experience, but for its purpose, it delivers well.

Good for a Quick bite to eat and rest ya legs

Very busy today but the service using the app was quick, unfortunately the coffee machine served like warm coffee, swapped to tea. The breakfast was also just warm and the fried egg was hard, however the staff were friendly and helpful and the place was kept clear of used crockery.

We ordered cheese burgers with chips and drinks from here. The beer was good, the lemonade was mediocre, and the chips were OK. The burgers were cold and awful. The place was packed out with customers, so it was surprising that the burgers were so cold that the cheese didn't even melt. I certainly wouldn't recommend going here for burgers, and would doubt other food would be much different.

Always love a Spoons, value for money can't beat it 💖

Had the breakfast spoon full of beans and everything was cold expected more for the price

Poor staff all the staff was horrible and so disrespectful. Then they come across to the our party and say that we had to leave cause one off out friends was barried and the person didnt know he was barried. The drinks we had was poured very flat. Its the worst spoons ive been in and weill not be returning

We tried a curry last night, both were tasty & rather pleasant by comparison. The jalfrezi had very little chicken (3 small pieces) vs the plentiful tikka masala, okay. Asked if all was good, I mentioned the jalfrezi content was poor. As 60% thro' they "insisted" literally to replace in it's entirety, as I was happy to have the jalfrezi dish only that created a problem from "the management" ie. It was all OR nothing. Never again ! They need to listen, otherwise don't bother to ask .. we pay upfront, but they dictate. Simply not my idea of ideal customer satisfaction. Whilst bad .. thanks to Katie who excelled in serving our drinks & taking our order .... friendly, competent, understanding & most helpful in every way.

Called in today, absolutely freezing. Air con on so wasn't comfortable at all. Loads of customers stayed in coats

We enjoyed the food here but it can get very busy

Visited while shopping in Meadowhall. Always use wetherspoons every where we go. Can't beat the food and drink value. Was busy but managed to get a table near the bottom of the pub. Bit draughty from the doors but it was very windy. Ordered food at the bar. Bbq panini and skinny chicken burger. Food came out very quick and very hot. Everything lovely and fresh. One of the better wetherspoons we have visited. It is a little dearer here than outside wetherspoons but still excellent value. Where else can you get 2 meals and 2 pints for £20. Recommended to visit

We’ve eaten here a few times when visiting Meadowhall and the foods always been nice and we’ve never waited too long for it. Prices are fairly decent and the pub itself is nice. Menu has a decent selection and good variety of meals and snacks to choose from. Would recommend this place!

Stunning pub, staff are angels and management front and centre at all times. Must visit every time to meadowhall!

Very nice on a Sunday afternoon for some food, good food for a quick bite to eat. Service is very good, very friendly staff and very quick food. Recommended!

Visited with my family. Young teen child reached out to touch metal art installation on the wall of our booth, did not see a hanging loose wire, which sparked and shocked him. Told a member of staff who did not seem bothered. Spoke to what we were told was the most senior member of staff "Shift Leader" who said "shouldn't be touching loose hanging wires then". My husband had to tell them to cordon off the booth so other families would not sit there. We were not offered a first aider, and we were unable to fill in the accident book. Absolute joke. When I asked the Shift Leader why he said that about "shouldn't touch loose wires then", he said he did not know it was our family who it had happened to, and tried to back peddle. He didnt even ask at any point if my child was ok and seemed more interested in starting an argument with my husband.Incompetent supervisory staff - they should know the H&S laws at least.

A lovely pub with very friendly staff. Breakfast was nice and if you have tea or coffee you only pay once and have free refills. Kirk was a lovely young man and couldn't do enough to help. You have the option to eat outside overlooking the river which was lovely. Highly recommend this place 👍👍

Good Wetherspoons with a nice atmosphere. Disappointed that there was no steaks & grills menu, BBQ Chicken Melt and Gamon Steak are the best things on the Wetherspoons menu and it would be great if they came to Meadowhall.

Good quality refillable coffee. Enjoy it either inside or outside.

For the last few months now we’ve started coming here every payday for after work drinks and have never been disappointed.

It's intriguing I've read somany reviews saying 'toilet' 'vomit' 'dirt' 'not fresh' 'rubbish' yet I am gonna say as far as everybody's entitled to their own in the recent reviews, I am disagreeing about what they've said about the people(&service). For me this place is simplistically excellently run. I've an opposite stance to the people who said in their review "toilet" "vomit" "dirt" "not fresh" "rubbish", I'm at the other end of the spectrum full of praise. There's endless things I can commend about this yearly visit!:)I'm impressed to the nth degree where I shall explain exactly why because there's load of things I remember even though I'm doing this statement near dozen days as the services&products were up to scratch especially the latter yet former mix. Ethan was somebody who was upthere! He was solid, he was full of lives, he did it confidantly and he was cheery enough yet not too much to the extreme as I am, I shall learn from him because I am a hospitalitarian therefore he taught me we don't need extra, Ethan was flaw less. Not too far beneath was Jamie. Jamie was an honor to have around from A to Z. He was a gent, we need gentlemen as both of these so were. I'm able to have smallchat with him, he seems to have an affinity with popp culturally based things. He was giving that taste of home and he's that guy next door. He's broad appeal-I know children will have been adoring him because he's patient and gentle, I know youngladds will have been liking him because he's funny and elderly adults will have been liking him because he has that aura about him where he's warm. The vermillion color hairred woman who was the baker/kitchen team workker-wOW! The mushypeas were having the tasty British delish standard and the aroma of it was lush, pleasing to the tastbuds&nostrils *v vital that food is pleasing the olfactory sensing*! The dish made me wanna yell CMON LADS LETS GO TO THE PUB! The small bowl of fry was fantabulosa! It was having crispiness and tenderness combined. It felt therapeutically velvetty! The cheddarred/mozzarellaad garlicbread was too superly! The sugarred kids milk was classic which I was allowed to taking with me to the cinema. All around these members of staff highlighted shall continue with head up high! They are confidant, uptempo, efficient, businessminded, laddish, showwoman!!!! And then there is an extension! cHLOE was having airs wonderfully about her-was able to show sides of her youthfully/maturity pandering to the audience. She doesn't mess around. She speaks to everybody and makes everybody feel comfortable. She's smilingAlot! I'd say she was a v nicynicy younglady! She is running around doing somuch where nothing is too much for her, she asked me specially whether my dish was with or without chees

Wetherspoon pubs can always be hit or miss, this is one of the better ones.

Good service and food came quickly

We visited this Wetherspoons pub on a Saturday lunchtime and teatime.The place was busy but the food still came within 15 minutes and was tasty and hot, something I find a lot of places fail to deliver these days.Nothing puts me off like warm food arriving on plates,as it's clearly been sat for 10 minutes going cold.The prices here mirrored the majority of Wetherspoons pubs for drinks and food.Full marks to the staff at the Steel Foundary.

To say this was my first time here, The Steel Foundry was lovely. We sat outside in the sunshine 🌞 and enjoyed the view. Service was excellent as we ordered our drinks through the app

Bit more expensive than town but then again what's not in meadowhell!

The servers are really efficient. It gets really busy, so plenty of staff on hand to quickly clean tables ready for the next people. Friendly and efficient service. Lots of choices for drinks/ food, good pricing.

If you want a cheeky drink before the movies then this place is good aside from that there’s no reason to be drinking during the day in meds. Foods okay though I recommend the curry

Visited yesterday afternoon 30th July 2024 at 3pm, the lady that came to the bar when her colleague was already busy serving, was very rude and obnoxious. Was disgusting service. The other staff serving seemed rather embarrassed by her behaviour , and she turned to one gentleman waiting and said “ there’s two of us serving now, what’s your problem ? “ absolutely disgusting.

Have been in many a Wetherspoons over the years and it’s normally cheap and cheerful. Sadly, this was neither. The meal cost almost £50 for very basic, badly overcooked, dry, miniscule portions of chips. The fish was dry, the peas tasteless and tinned. The pub itself smelled awful of vomit, and the toilets were noticed. The pub is within a shopping centre off the motorway, so I wouldn’t have expected drinking to excess. Staff way to eger to clean away plates still with food on !!! Sorry kids do eat slower and often need the loo mid meal. If asked once and told no they will be back i don't expect to be asked again 5 mins later. Just not up to standard.

I have visited many Wetherspoons over the years but never been to one where the staff are so committed and hard working, the results can be seen by just how full the place is when everyone else in the Oasis was empty. I enjoyed my experience and felt very relaxed there, I guarantee that I will return over and over in the future.

Had a small plate 8inch ham and mushroom pizza, it was delicious 😋

Absolutely terrible. 2 waitresses talking, one took her shoe off & put her hand inside fiddling with whatever & continued then on to serve food. Breakfast was cold, beans very few, only ate as I was starving. Asked if I wanted another, surely this is wasting food & should be hot first time round.

Food was tasty. Only one server who was trying to do everything. Not full and felt a little flat. It was difficult to negotiate with mobility scooter.

Didn't have food there but beer was lovely and cold definitely needed in summer

The chef needs to be wearing a beard net as his beard is far to long. This is a hygine issue. The taste of the chips I can tell that the fryers hasn't been cleaned and oil changed for atleast a month. The oven has burnt on food that shows it hasn't been cleaned for over a month. This kitchen need of a deep clean. The meal sizes are for a 5 year old and the prices are just ridiculous. As being a Executive Chef myself and coming into this restaurant I wouldn't have a open kitchen if your staff dosnt want to follow health and safety and also personal hygiene. I will be passing my photos that I have onto the EHO to raise my concerns of the standard that this kitchen is in

I don't like the owner but his staff did a great job.

Enjoyable lunch. Great service and food. I would visit again.

Always the 1st stop after parking up at meadowhall, the food is great they have a large selection of vegetarian options. They have a large selection of drinks with a rotating roster of real ales, great value for money 3 adults meal and drinks £33. overall definitely worth a visit.

What you would expect from a weatherspoons

I had the worst experience this afternoon at Witherspoon’s with a awful staff member, me and my mum ordered a gin and lemonade and a pint of Pepsi. the Pepsi came and it was a Pepsi max and we paid £5 for the gin the gin was for me (17 years old) as you are allowed to have an alcoholic drink in a restaurant accompanied with an adult. as this staff member came over we asked for it with lemonade as it didn’t come with some lemonade and she asked who’s it for so I said me, she then looked at me asked for some Id and I said I don’t have any she then was very rude and said “Well I can’t give it you then” did a massive sigh lifted her arms up and had such RUDE body language, she didn’t offer me another drink she just walked off and didn’t even offer a refund. that worker needs some serious teaching to be working in a restaurant, im 17 and have worked in a restaurant better.

Food not good better at other spoons

Food was only slightly warm, atmosphere was terrible, service was none existent.

Great place but always too busy 😕

Good price for quick drink before cinema. Great deal for top up tea / coffee.

Having decided to have tea out with family. When my meal arrived I was shocked. Couldn't believe my eyes neither could family. My burger meal was the smallest portion I have seen and definitely not worth the money with a alcoholic drink. It has totally put me off to have a meal again and will only have a drink in the future. Definitely feel wetherspoons cutting portion sizes down far too much but putting prices up.

It's a spoons. Food is what you expect but the beer is well priced.
