The Steel Foundry in Sheffield

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

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

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

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.

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 😋

Food hot and well cooked good presentation

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.

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

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

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

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

What you would expect from a weatherspoons

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.

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

Food not good better at other spoons

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.

Everything was okay was ok until one off the bar staff was very rude and made me feel very uncomfortable.

Can't believe it's wetherspoon and it's inside Meadowhall food court. Nice interior, lovely seating area and beer garden at the bar k from where you can have river view and enjoy your drink. Staff was cool and good service. Atmosphere is at peak not only 8nside but out at beer garden as well. Love to come back again if I'll be around the area.

Food came quick but id have rather waited 10 More mins and had bacon that was cooked not boiled toast that was toasted egg was cooked for 12 mins longer than needed its so much harder to screw a breakfast up than it is to make a nice one today these guys screwed it up

Not the best meal I've eaten at spoons

It's a wetherspoon like all of them cheap and ok

we were planning to have food and drink had some drinks decided not to stay atmosphere was terrible. Service was rubbish or never go back.

One of my favourite Wetherspoons.

Quite fast but garlic pizza swims in oil, vegetable pizza was burnt chips are not cross und untasty. Prizes more than 2£ more than in any other franchise even in the same city also not even same products on the menue

Yes I enjoy visiting this establishment good stuff good food good atmosphere prices are reasonable would visit again.

Great place. Friendly staff. Food was delicious. Going again next week with my Son.

Busy but excellent service we were there to start my hen night. Severed by manager David excellent service.

Very disappointed in the meal i had today, very small burger and small chips, burger was just warm - first time I've eaten at the meadowhall wetherspoons... Never again will i visit here again.

Pre lunch drinks. Good to see attentive on the ball staff. Checking machines, clearing & cleaning tables. Genuinely looking as though they care about what they do. 👏

Food almost cold. Very small portion of fish and chips. Cold watery mushy peas. Staff couldn't change meal as we had eaten some! How else would we know it was cold if we hadn't eaten any. Return unlikely.

Excellent place, good choice of drinks and food

Friendly atmosphere but alot of tables had empty glasses and plates on them making the pub look a mess

It is what it is,basic reasonably priced food. Not always the hotest and the tables here are on top of each other so packed in to fit more people in. Chef Mic is the hardest working chef I know🤣

Always a friendly place to visit. Can be very busy at times but still a nice place for food and drink.

Lovely food.. even better staff

Quick service, cheap beer, clean pub.

Very good burgers and very cold beer!!

Came for a drink after work and Lisa was amazing. Made the table laugh and was quick to deliver drinks.

Not impressed, we wanted Steak, they don't sell it. We wanted chicken, the chicken fryer was broken. If you're a non meat eater? The perfect place.

Really good atmosphere and one particular member of staff was fantastic. Unfortunately I didn't get her name

Spot on, it's not posh but more than acceptable

Good value food,always nice and clean with friendly staff.

Good service and friendly staff are always a certainty in any Wetherspoons

A very busy Weatherspoons pub with chairs and tables close together, limited menu compared to a normal Weatherspoons pub. Efficient service, good value food.

Nice place but can get very busy and sometimes food is a bit hit and miss with how busy it gets

A well needed oasis when shopping with the other half 🤣

My fried eggs (I ordered cured ham, eggs n chips) arrived over cooked. I like to dip my chips, however the nice staff got me some better ones on asking. So a 3 star for food! Weren't bad over all but I think a preference should be an option as some do like hard eggs some like soft! Staff did a great job to accomodate me!

Did not eat here. But nice place to go.

Ok for a quick snack at reasonable prices.

Popped in for a breakfast. Great value for money. Recommend the full English and the Miner's benedict. Staff really friendly and helpful.

Only called for one drink but Incredible value considering our location, one pint from an American brewer & a coffee, less than £5, Fantastic!

Went with my kids after doing some shopping an a sunday , and wish i hadn't , terrible service , with terrible food , solid naan, and soft poppadoms

worst Wetherspoons by far food terrible , solid naan and soft poppadoms , terrible service ! Wont go back .

Always good at Wetherspoons! Good food at a good price. Thought this outlet was a bit more pricey than other Wetherspoons???

Vert busy witherspoon in meadowhall good food

It was not to bad there. It's a small place and it's hard to get a good place to sit down 5 people.

Imagine the carnage if New York city had one Mcdonalds restaurant. The stampede for the door, to the tables, to the servers would be akin to the apocalypse. Welcome to Wetherspoons in a busy, popular, Yorkshire shopping centre. It is busy, very very busy and tables are snapped up quicker than the ones at a kids party during a game of overly aggressive musical chairs. And that's if you can get past the four horsemen... If you're lucky enough to grab a seat, then you'll be fine. The food is the usual blend of affordability and taste without being spectacular. You're fine for a decent breakfast, the meals are perfectly acceptable and The Steel Foundry is a welcome stop in the middle of your shopping tour.
