The Unicorn in Trafford

I know it's cheap Witherspoon's,and I've not been in for awhile but the food was awful, really use to be good food

Nice pub nice food, just what you would expect from wetherspoons

Friendly and helpful and fun ☺️

Fantastic Wetherspoons. We got a full English Breakfast & we didn't wait long. It was lovely 😊 Staff very friendly & efficient. Parking did cost us but only £2 (not Wetherspoons car park). Very clean inside & ladies toilets were nice 😍

One of the legion of Wetherspoons found across the UK. It's a more modern building than some but warm and clean. Food typical for spoons good value and reasonable portions. You know it's not prepared from scratch (hard to at the price) but good range and tasty.

Visited on Tuesday 8th October 2024. One steak was all grisle the other two not much better. Worst experience in a Weatherspoons . Lots o food left on the plates. Mentioned to the male waiter that it was an awful he said "sorry about that". The chef needs sacking for sending food like that out of the kitchen. Also whatever happened to serving food on warm plates ours were cold. Puts us off Weatherspoons or good.

Always busy but with quick bar and food service. Had a burger, chips and a G&T for £8! Basic but tasty and great value.

Good food and efficient service

The main course was amazing properly cooked and this would make me go back. The only downfall was the desert I had sticky toffee caramel pudding and it was ice cold and the so called hot custard was ice cold too. Which disappointed me really but can’t have everything perfect

Friendly helpful staff. Hot food is hot. The service is very good. Very chilled place.

Tasty food but portion a bit small

Nice clean brunch Portion a bit small even I ordered large

My pint of Guinness was nice and well settled. Food came out quick and was warm.

Friendly atmosphere. Here on a Friday night. Seem to be a great team they have here. Well done!

Can be better at serving..to slow at the bar and whist ordering through the app also ..food orders are wrong and come out incorrectly with items missing but if you want cheap drinks then it's what you might want

Nice staff, friendly atmosphere

Alex B is the best 👌 👍. Alex. Alex. Alex. Food portion, not so great. Alex. Alex. Alex. Alex B is the 👌 👍. Alex. Alex. Alex.

Standard Wetherspoons pub. Prices are spot on in this credit crunch. Drinks OK. Only irritation was the uncleared and uncleaned tables. Sticky sticky!

The Wetherspoon mobile app is very suitable for any traveler and those who are not good at communication. The staff here are very friendly and energetic, and you can feel that they respect their work (at least that’s how it appeared to me). I had breakfast and dinner here for two days. The prices and food quality are reasonable, and the environment is clean.

Saturday 3rd August 2024 This is a really well run weatherspoons It had today a very good range of guests, real ales on offer The beer thet was on handpumped. I drank were excellent The staff today were really good at their jobs, and the drinking area were well looked after and clean Well done, all involved

An excellent pub once again from Wetherspoon's. I popped in for coffee so I can't comment on the food. Nice building, plenty of space, clean toilets, good service, massive selection of drinks and unbeatable prices. The only problem is the lack of free parking during the day (which isn't the fault of the pub, but is still a problem nonetheless). Apart from that, top notch!

Fantastic evening! Fantastic staff! I haven't visited a place with more welcoming staff who you were able to have a laugh with. Nothing was too much for them they all went above and beyond. I thoroughly enjoyed my evening here and will return again.

Mediocre food and rude staff. Party of 8 and the staff informed us AFTER we ordered, that the table was reserved and we'd have to vacate by a certain time. Toilets were overflowing and staff told is that we'd have to make do. I had ham, egg and chips. Ham looked grey, egg was like rubber and luke warm chips. Maybe an off-day, I'd try it again if I'm in the area.

It's a Great Venue Nice Staff Light Decent Best Wetherspoon's in Trafford Without a doubt

I was visiting friends with my son an we decided to go here for a light snack and a drink. I can’t complain about the service that was quick a foot was nice and hot however, everything I touched was sticky the menus the table the condiment bottles and then my son got chewing on his hands that someone had stuck to the table. It wasn’t the best experience and I doubt I’d visit there again.

Not too bad for a small Wetherspoon's. I had a very good Peerless ale: Citruvian for £2.63. Very small outdoor seating area with some shade and sun.

Normally cannot fault the afternoon deals put on in all Wetherspoons outlets. Usually ~£2.70 cheaper when eating between 2 and 5pm. Pub was very quiet and ordered our favourite fish and chips plus garden peas and two pints of lager for <£17. Arrived within 10 minutes, fish nice and hot and not too greasy however chips and peas were quite cool and not pleasant. Complained and got a full fresh meal with an apology. This time everything was piping hot. Again no one came to clear away the plates in over 30 mins. or ask how our replacement meal was thus slightly disappointed.

No ice for 3 weeks, staff member dreadful attitude when enquired if problem resolved. A large company as Wetherspoons is should have it sorted immediately. Generally staff very good , one member dreadful attitude , lets the rest down .

My dad's been a regular here for years but this evening some manager threw him and my mum out because they complained they food was served cold and they had over half an hour wait without it coming back reheated. They accused him of shouting at her. He explained he has hearing aids that make it difficult to hear through ambient noise. This person was obviously was on a mission to prove a point and chucked them out despite other staff, customers and security defending him. I'll be interested to hear what they have to say in response to my complaint and that of my other family members. Dad knows most staff by name and just wants a quiet few drinks and food. He's not in the business of downing shots and laughing like a hyena so I guess he's no longer their target audience. Put your managers on disability and discrimination awareness training and teach them to listen to valid feedback rather than throwing their toys out of the pram. From what I understand this manager got so worked up she threw out other paying customers who defended my dad. Class act. UPDATE: got a poor response from customer service basically saying tough, the licencee can do what they want, they consider the matter closed. Punchline is they hope I visit them soon 🤣🤣🤣 I'd rather set fire to a ten pound note

Nice place for drinking and eating here.

Entered really clean really professional so I thought! Stood at bar bar tender serving someone so I waited till they finished then another person came to the bar a bar team member walked from the kitchen and ignored me and went to the person after me, the one who saw me but was busy then finished then walked away fair to say I don’t normally have an issue but there was five people on the bar and 3 people needing to be served so no excuse so went somewhere else sort your staff out as I am a lover of the spoons but this was my first ever time in this one and it’s also now my last no wonder your staff turn over is so high because your staff pick and choice who to serve clearly the fact I wasn’t wearing trackies or had coke on my nose means I am not wanted in your venue

Good pub reasonable prices a bit if a let down no ice for weeks and standard if food has deteriorated

Great pub. The food was very tasty. We visited twice in 2 weeks, Saturday 18th May and Wednesday 29th May. Excellent friendly service from Alex both times. Will hopefully return when using Manchester Airport again.

First time ever had a bad steak day. Will give steak here a miss for a time. Also Wether spoons have dropped the 5 bean chilli replacement not good. Unicorn staff second to none .

The staff don’t look happy and they take that out on the customers. Some will Stand and go through coins for certain people and staff but to wait to be served is a joke……. And these people of staff members are a joke to!! They don’t no the meaning of life to force yourself up to even venture out!!!! It’s so demeaning. Least I try

The food taste delicious but wait too long for the food.

Staff very rude to me and my uncle we had just completed a 9 hour walk and this was our last stop to enjoy a nice beverage but staff were super unfriendly to us and tried to kick us out for disputing that I was old enough to drink even when I showed them my jd

Good pub with cheap drinks. Always busy and reasonable atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Miserable staff didn't look like they wanted to be here pulled face when asking if they could wipe table as it was sticky bar staff looked like he couldn't be bothered taking order for food

Big improvement in the way is now cooked from previous kitchen staff .need reintroduce full 6oz burger more succulent than 3oz ones and a better burger bun that doesn't disintegrate when trying to eat the burger sirloin steaks a lot nicer a better supplier but bit of s rip off to charge over £11 quid just for steak and chips where is the peas mishroom tomato that used to be added instead of adding onion rongs as a gourmet dish charging extra for the privilege would be nice to see a new menu with salmon or s good variety of quality fishcake would be s nice healthy option

The usual weather spoons food service and atmosphere.

Can't beat a "spoons" staff here are fab !!!!

Alex is the best person to ever clean up my drinks got loads of jokes, then Terrie the bartender is absolute class got the jokes aswell.

Terrie is the best bar maid love her lots get her promoted and a pay rise 🩷🤘🩷🤘🩷

Not the best of venues Very nosie young ones took over spoilt the meet up with friends won't be going back sorry food very poor and didn't say anything as with mates jacket potatoes very very poor so disappointed Nom wont go back

Amazing service from Alex, who went above and beyond making sure that we had a lovely meal! He is such a credit to the team! Thank you again!! You made us feel so welcomed!

Absolutely below standard compared to previous Wetherspoons we have dined

Came in with my partner who is visually impaired, kora the manager couldn't help us enough 5stars service

Easy going location to get a good and value for money breakfast.

Good place to hangout with friends

Always reliable for a cheap tea and drink before the cinema😃

First time visit but a great quiet atmosphere and a specil offer beer at £1.88 what could be better.

Still a great place for a great range of beers, ales and gins and very reasonably priced food

i love it here i keep being my boyfriend too bring me here every week ngl

Peaceful with a good range of beverages for all Stop by when near for a hearty welcome

One of the staff bring drinks to the tables didn't seem happy to be working there but I found it quite rude when has was delivering our drinks and told us "A smile would be nice." in rather moody and frustrated tone as he delivered drinks to the table. We were pleasantly chatting among ourselves and we would naturally of thanked him for the service as we alway do but I feel the need to say he was just rude.

Good breakfast, unlimited coffee/tea, staff polite and pleasant.would recommend

Yum yum Always a winner! 15/03/24 Back again for a tasty very reasonably price tea for four. A known qty. which ever fails to deliver.

A good selection of beers and good quality for the price

Fast service never a long wait for food

Haven't been in a spoons for year's, open early good breakfast with coffee for 6pounds happy positive service.

Good dinner time service, the blonde girl doing table service is absolutely rapid and amazing at her job. All round good trip.

Clean, great beer, good food and well priced. The pub is light and airy and the service is good.

You get what you pay for with Weatherspoons. The Unicorn is one of the cleanest I been to added bonus the food was good to.

One of the best Wetherspoons that I’ve been in — even if you still don’t want to communicate with anyone else in there 😂

It's OK and pleasant staff. Always served with a smile. Always good for a great pint of proper ale .

Decent spoons in Altrincham. Usual menu and service was great.

Excellent place to visit. Very friendly environment and very child friendly.

Great place. Facilities were good. Service was fast considering it was packed for Saturday. We attended as a small LGBT walking group but all enjoyed our alcohol and food. Id absolutely eat here again.

Enjoyed a very reasonable priced lunch

I met friends for a catch up in the afternoon, it was quiet which was good for us to chat. The range of beers is good and great prices. The building is newer than most Weatherspoons so lacks any interest or character.

Have previously had a decent visit. This time it was not so great. Cold breakfast, congealed beans. It seems the kitchen has gone down hill, I hope they read these reviews and fix it.

The breakfast is beautiful and nice and hot

Good pint but ignored by duty manager who pretended to be busy (30+ years in licensed trade so I know what he was doing) adopting a customer first mentality wouldn't go amiss

No heating on again -6 take hot water bottle gloves

Very slow service and no apology. Order was wrong as one breakfast was missing an egg. The other breakfast’s eggs were rock hard. Beans cold. Toast wasn’t toast, but very slightly warmed bread. I know Wetherspoons is not meant to be the Ritz, but every other breakfast I’ve ever had in a ‘Spoons has been fine. This was just grim.

I visted here today (Friday 12th Jan) having been here before on numerous occasions. As Spoons go, this place can be hit & miss, particularly where real ale is concerned. Personally they have too many generic types for me & not enough locally sourced brews. That said, those on offer are usually of good condition. The pub generally is looking a little tired, stained carpets, with a few tatty tables etc, the toilets too are reflecting a similar feel. Ok, It's not dirty, but a make over wouldn't go a miss. I had the fish & chips today, which I have to say was one of the best ive ever had. This is my second sampling of this dish & on the previous occasion it was as equally good.

Good quick service through app, quiet gives everything required of a Wetherspoons. Tonight bad service, abrupt bar chap

what a good egg benedict.............

Excellent value for money and great place to catch up with friends!!

it was Christmas eve and 8 of us went for brunch before we went to cinema 3 of us had the full breakfast which was ok but barely warm the refill coffee and tea good value the other food was ok but again barely warm

The mixed grill was terrible, I've never had so much grizzle and fat in my whole experience in there. I understand its discounted slighly but that qas very poor. Didnt want to say anything on this occasion.

Decent spoons with good selection of beers and decent food.

As we know you get what you pay for but it was fine 🙂

Me and my lads have been here 3 years on the row for our Christmas meal , this year will be our last we had an issue with the doorman and the lady manager was completely rude to me and my friends even tried kicking us out and boxing all the food we ordered we was a party of 20 and she tried to cause trouble , man thanks to Alex and cally on the bar for all there help they are really passionate about there job and helped accordingly such a shame to see a spoons ran so poorly when we spend good money in there every year

Great place, lots of seating in and out. Staff are great

Been here several times, can't fault it.

Typical weather spoons good beer selection

On Sunday 19/11/23 about 15.10 pm I ordered gourmet sirloin with pepper sauce and surf and turfed up with side order of scampi. Had pint of Abbott ale as my drink. Ordered from table thru app. Had to fetch beer off bar myself could see it sitting there for 15 mins. Meal came, no peppercorn sauce after nearly 10 mins and waitress busy chatting to a girl at one of tables nearby. This was clearly a chat between friends not waitress to customer. Again had to go to bar and ask barman to escalate issue. Sauce came food was now luke warm not hot. Been here few times in past, service and food bang on. Way off it today I'm afraid.

Very nice spoons with usual food choice of great wines and beers. Didn't try the food. Lovely atmosphere with lots of folks enjoying early evening drinks. Friendly efficient staff.

It was a busy day and the staff looked run of there feet they tried hard but were I would say understaffed. Nevertheless a good time was had.

Eggs benedict were cold, too much sauce and bagel was cold and stale

First visit to the Unicorn, food was nice, the staff were very busy but still friendly

Gd food great price ,typical wetherspoons

Came for breakfast after dropping parents at airport. Ordered traditional breakfast and pancakes with syrup. The whole meal was cold. I couldn't even cut the pancakes they were that hard. Wont be going back again.

Breaky quite often cold no brown toast option

A typical spoons experience, relax and enjoyable

Oh mark mark mark the arrogant brain dead manager who made my teeth itch by telling bare face lies after bringing me the wrong food!!! Then he makes things up on his own chest worn camera (brain dead) 🤣 soon shut up when he was made to look silly infront of his own staff and all the customers. Pathetic. And to top it all he had sweat all over his forehead. Wrecked my meal with my son and missus by lying to our faces. About as bright as an eclipse.

Royally messed up our vegan breakfast, my mate was very disappointed because we were catching up after 12 years and it was bobbins brekkie. Nice Guiness tho.

Typical 'Town Centre' 'spoons'. . clean and efficient ,quality food & drink at sensible prices...a generation mix to frequent...
