The Union Rooms in Plymouth

Bonjour Nous sommes Français et habitué régulièrement à faire du shopping à Plymouth ,également nous arrêter dans votre bar . Cette fois ci notre commande était une bière IPA , la personne de sexe féminin qui nous a servie , à notre grande surprise est allée à l'autre bout du bar pour la pompe à bière, alors que devant nous la même existait ? Après dégustation nous avons compris vu que des étrangers, plus facile de nous servir un bière éventé voir fond de fût. Ne parlant que très peu Anglais ils nous étaient difficiles de procéder à une réclamation , À bientôt pour notre prochain shopping Pour votre publicité ⚠️ Cordialement Yannick France

Lovely staff. Visiting family down south last week and had lunch here, Young server Maisie was very pleasant and helpful. Got chatting to her, she was very attentive and a hard worker. Good job Maisie !! ☺️

Rude and incompetent bouncers who cant tell the difference between an IDs issue date and its expiration date. They then proceeded to pull me aside and frisk me because I "seemed out of it" (newflash: I was just tired). Then even after finding no drugs on me (because I had none and I fully cooperated), they forced me to leave all the same. Decided to go in for breakfast this morning ahead of catching the train. After 40 minutes of waiting, I was forced to leave without eating in order to catch the train. Such a wait may have been understandable if the place was packed but it was quiet with only a couple of tables occupied. Some came in after me and recieved their food before me!

Really a mess when I went. Even though about half the tables had no one sitting at them, I had a hard time finding a table as most had lots of dirty dishes. The staff I met were really friendly and cheery though! Food was as expected.

Terrible slow service and dirty glasses

Staff behind the bar clueless and unhelpful

On a very wet day during half term, it was unsurprisingly busy at lunchtime. There was some confusion over my order of Baked Potato with Chili and Cheese, when my server 'Tori' delivered it to the table she soon sorted it all out, so many thanks to 'Tori' hence the ***** review, you're a credit to the company, also thanks to 'Tiffany' for painlessly sorting out the refund.

Missable staff, table cluttered, floor messing. People vaping. Not a good experience

A lot of food and drinks, 'unavailable'. It was a quiet Sunday lunchtime, and the service was incredibly slow. Main course came out before drinks which followed 20 minutes later and a 45 minute wait for a dessert that eventually came out after enquiring where it was, and was then served with dirty cutlery.

We went to this establishment for something to eat and a drink . We queued upstairs fir 15 minutes, then they hadn't got most o the meals available. We ordered a pizza with hips which took 40 minutes to be served and we had to ask 3 times. The food was terrible we didn't eat it. We will be er go back here. Avoid.

I’m writing this review as a young woman… there is a lot of spiking going on in Plymouth and to see all of these unattended drinks waiting to be taken out. We want to feel safe on our nights out, so better.

Food is good. Service was good. All in a beautiful restored building with a great location.

I have never been met with such rude ignorant attitude.. the barmaid was about to serve me when she became more interested in a guy previously barred .. three times I asked for my pint .. and she rolled her eyes.. she started pulling the pint but then stopped to watch what her mates where watching outside .. then said this one’s off and walked away - her colleague apologised for her but she came back and asked if I wanted anything else? I ordered food without any eye contact from her … I asked about another pint but was ignored!! No please or thanks no people skills at all - what is happening at the union rooms ?

It's a nice place with a large beer garden the food is decent and pleasant staff

Unfriendly service, visited many Westherspoons by now and these girls do not care they have customer waiting to order. They walked past me without noticing me and at the end they forgot to bring us one item we ordered so we had to ask for refund for which no one once said Sorry or we apologise just simply handed me the money. Food felt like heated up and defo not fresh, it was a curry Thursday so I expected the curry chicken to be freshly fried but it was soggy ….average food

My first time to Union Rooms and I had an amazing time having lunch in very roomy and comfortable surroundings. The food was FAB, service was great, prices stupendously good.....this Wetherspoons is my new favourite!!!!

Typical spoons Lots of seating over three floors

Great service. Good food and ale. What is not to like? Brilliant. Thanks guys and gals.

It's spoons, big and airy. Good food. Don't bother with the cheapest merlot though, it's fizzy and vinegary! Other than that all good!

Nice spoons with a nice beer garden

Great food. Fair price. Friendly staff.

Had stake and was very disappointing never again was discusting

Lovely spoons, food was good, great service. However, it’s in Plymouth: 1 star.

Food this bad it has to be experienced

Great spoons, can go for breakfast and even a night out

It's one of the bigger wether spoons with a nice upstairs. Prices are a little bit more around a pound due to the location.

Last weekend, I had one of those unexpected evenings that quickly became one of my fondest memories. As an Aberdonian far from home, I was pleasantly surprised by the warmth and character of the Wetherspoons in Plymouth. The atmosphere was inviting from the moment I walked in, with a relaxed vibe that perfectly balanced modern style and a touch of local charm. My experience was made even more special by the impeccable service of Regan—a tall, dark-haired gem all the way from Stoke. Regan greeted me with genuine warmth and an easygoing smile, making me feel immediately at home despite my long journey from Aberdeen. Not only did he have a knack for suggesting the perfect drink to match my mood, but his friendly banter and attentive service added a personal touch that elevated the entire visit. From the carefully selected drinks to the hearty, satisfying fare, everything was served with a sincere passion for good hospitality. Regan’s recommendations truly hit the spot, and his ability to mix professionalism with a friendly, relaxed attitude made the evening unforgettable. I left Plymouth with a full heart and a promise to return—knowing that great service like Regan’s is a reminder that sometimes, the best experiences are those where you feel right at home, no matter how far from it you are. In short, if you’re looking for a place where the spirit of local charm meets warm, personalized service, this Wetherspoons in Plymouth is a must-visit. I wholeheartedly recommend it—especially if you appreciate the kind of care that turns an ordinary night out into a cherished memory.

Last time no bread this time no eggs?

Great food and prices ...perfect venue

Slow service, all very sticky. Food smelt good.

Great until 20:00 when the music comes on

Friendly staff and food was served ok

Jemma is absolutely top drawer as are her colleagues.

Nice breakfast. Quick service. Nice and cheap. Don't sit by the front door on a cold day. Sit in the garden in the summer though, it's lovely.

Great pub and reasonable prices

Awful experience waitress rude and stuck up! Food was mediocre. Wouldn't return.

The food was nice I had a mixed grill, and the wife had BBQ chicken both good. Though for some reason we had plastic glasses other than that all good.

It was the food that disappointed me most. Grilled chicken burger was dry, a handful of chips and measly bit of salad. Waited a long time at the bar to get drinks and place food order. Would go again, but don't think I'd choose to eat there again.

With a present atmosphere on arrival, and friendly staff, we ordered from the breakfast menu, the food was nicely cooked and flavoursome. And I would certainly go back again.

Good value food and drink. The only negative was the number of food items on the menu that were not available.

Always heaving. It's chesp and cheerful. Vegan options are ok, but you get what you pay for

I've visited almost 100 wetherspoons and sadly this was one of the worst, but all the issues are seemingly easily rectifiable and probably all stem from lack of staff or poor processes. This is a substantial site, with lots of different areas to sit in but cleanliness seems to be a real issue. The wooden parts of the floor are caked in food and drink, to the point you hear the horrible noise when walking across it. Nearly every single table was dirty, either with used plates/glasses, or from the fact it hadn't been wiped. We sat at 4 different tables, all were wobbly, two so bad if you lent on them the drink would be on the floor. It's always strange when food arrives before the drinks, speaking of food I've eaten no less than 500 meals at spoons and I've never seen chips so overcooked. However, for the prices paid value for money was had - but this is a spoons I wouldn't choose to return to unless it had a deep clean!

Ordered food and drink on app place wasn't busy,took 35 mins for both to arrive. Beer was flat and warm so obviously had been poured a while ago and my wife's drink turned up in a bottle with no straw. Pretty poor service really.

Went for breakfast and I liked it

The service needs to improve a lot! They made a mess and declared my order as fulfilled without having delivered the dish.

Long queue for drinks as only one person serving. No glasses when got served so drinks were in inappropriate glasses

went on a pub crawl good atmosphere although i guess it depends on when you go and who your with but would recommend

I recently visited westherspoons and I was blown away by the fantastic service from Lenn. She was incredibly helpful when I needed assistance with my drink and really went the extra mile to make sure everything was just right, she hadn’t even started her shift yet ! It’s rare to come across someone so dedicated and genuinely helpful. A huge thank you to Lenn for making my experience so enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to others. Insta: harry._.burton 😉

25 mins for a drinks order using the app only to be told that the bottle of wine was unavailable. No apology- asked for refund and left. Shocking customer service. Also how can you order and pay for something unavailable?? Surely you have stock control?

This is a very friendly Weatherspoons with good beer and very good service, we had supper that was great value for money. and return for breakfast that again was serviced with a smile and again great value. If in Plymouth, the Union rooms are worth a visit.

Worst Wetherspoons we have experienced. Friday 27th December 6ish.Tables available but no chairs. Member of staff managed to find a couple of chairs for us. Ordered food and 2 guest ales. 1 pulled ok other ran out. Ony 1 other ale available, which was a local to where I come from 200miles away. pout of a possible 15 hand pumps.

A lovely time was had by all of as celebrating an 18th B'day. When we all ordered food and drinks it was good to see that every was served at the same time.

Awful Spoons. Very cold ex car showroom. I ordered a Korean chicken bowl but was given a child vegan half bowl. Door staff can't speak English so I wonder how that works out on a busy night. Avoid.

Definitely at the lower end of the cost scale, which was great. Good quality was pretty good too, some of it was a bit colder than I'd have liked but not worth complaining about it at the time.

Food was not up to standard. We ordered at 1715 and got served 1800 Childs pasta, minuscule not enough for a hungry 7yr old. American burger dry and overcooked small portion of chips, burrito salad rice hard, added chicken which was similar to the cheap chicken bits you buy for sandwich filler. Had no chance to complain and send back as we needed to be at the Theatre for 630. Would have had a much better meal at Macdonalds. Worse Spoons meal we have had. Will not return

Service with a smile. Sadly steak was overcooked. No real atmosphere. Could do with some background music

Never tried food. Really good deal on shots.

It was a great experience. I needed to unwind with friends and it was all encompassing though noisier than I had imagined but it was worth it.

Decent place for cheap drinks and food that's nothing special, but it doesn't need to be for what it is

Panini bread was hard and burnt. Chips were nice though.

Went for breakfast today. Advertised as having breakfast until 12pm. They had absolutely nothing except 'bacon butties' at nearly a fiver. Ordered one. Staff were great, very apologetic. Butty was awful. Stringy undercooked bacon between 2 slices of white bread. That's me done with Wetherspoons.

Went in for breakfast ran out of everything so waited for lunch menu ordered large ham egg and chips no ham two hard fried eggs with 6 chips, wouldn’t bother going in everyone on out table said there food was terrible

Got rejected entry because I wore a tracksuit, 2 hours before I was fine. This is actual pick and choose entry and unfair to anyone who wears a "tracksuit"

Usually pretty busy but the staff is friendly and well organised as far as I'm concerned. Good night out in the summer as well

Good place to go for some food and drink which is quite nice pricing and has nice atmosphere and very good servicing

What can I say? It's a spoons. Perfectly suitable if you're looking to bully men into buying you shots. (Also please enable app orders for outside !!)

Probably the worst wetherspoons I've visited, the food was shockingly bad, I ordered a meat feast pizza, which was burnt on one side and there was hardly any meat on it, also I ordered a side of garlic mayo and got a thimble full in a little pot full of water, I really wish I had complained at the time but I just wanted out of there.

Food seams to be hit and miss. . Depending on who is in the kitchen. . Sometimes I get 4 bits of toast with my breakfast. Other times. 2. And same with . Mushrooms. On day I get one other times. I don't. . Have sent food back b4. And asked for a refund. . That's mainly the steak. Its tough. Over cooked. And don't order it no more. . The tall manager in white shirt and tie. Was quite rude. About it. . But having. 38 years. In the prison service I've delt with people. Like him b4. . That's my honest opinion. .Will still go there. As its handy for lunch. .

We visited The Union Rooms for breakfast after a night out, and it was exactly what you'd expect from a Wetherspoons—consistent and reliable. There was plenty of space to accommodate our group of seven comfortably, which was a big plus. The coffee was great, the breakfast was hearty and hit the spot, and the value for money was fantastic as always. It’s the perfect place for a no-fuss, affordable breakfast to recover and recharge. Would definitely recommend for groups or anyone looking for a solid start to their day!

Wow this place has gone downhill. Breakfasts were sent to us incorrectly multiple times, one breakfast had a raw mushroom and no egg, and when we sent it back it came back again with an extra sausage but still a raw mushroom and all the other issues. In addition, 4 plates were missed entirely and finally showed up after we chased it up with the FoH staff. When the food finally arrived correctly it was mainly lukewarm, with toast that was burnt yet somehow cold. On top of this coffee cups were given to us that were dirty. Very disappointed and should have asked for a refund to be honest.

Enjoythe place good service and fruebdly

I went for a breakfast and got stuck in a que. Because that made me 2mins late, they refused to do the breakfast. I told them I was stuck in the que, but they didn't care.. You know what? I don't care either.. I'll take my business else where..

This Wetherspoons is lovely, one of the nicest looking ones I’ve been in. But unfortunately that’s as far as it goes… one of the staff were a bit rude, rushing my ordering process because of being on a cash till. The lady with the red hair, was lovely though. Really good service from her! When the food came out, it was very disappointing. The pizza is the worst I’ve ever had and i always order the same thing in Wetherspoons. I ordered with no chili and ended up with (almost) no chicken and non of the rocket or whatever salad it is either. Also had with waaay too much crust on the pizza - the child’s one with it being smaller was awful for it… almost no edible pizza because it was so overcooked you couldn’t crunch through the crust. The mixed grill, the cuts of meat were very disappointing. Decent quality to a degree but size and was awful. And on I believe it’s called Korean chicken (with coconut rice) there were no chilis on this like there was supposed to be either. So maybe an ok visit for a quick drink but certainly wouldn’t recommend food here.

It's Spoons! You know what you're getting! Food is ok. Drinks are cheap. Chip portions are getting smaller; Burrito bowl was huge.

This place always makes me laugh! 5 times in 10 days I've been here on my yearly visit to Plymouth and 4 have been an utter mess! Tables have been a joke..... Staff have looked like dressing is an issue and the gents toilet smelt so bad, that the hairs in my nose no longer needed clipping! And now on the weekend they charge to be allowed inside!!! I Just Can't! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 All this said...... I'll be back time and time again for as long as I live!

Much improved from last visit. Food, good as always. Tables clean and no dishes piled up in hatch. Still cannot get orange cordial for my brandy. Why?

Very quiet lots of bar staff and very slow service.

Nice and spacious place for some cans in Plymouth because Plymouth is a barmy place or something like that idk I barely go but this time I was there and it was good

This lovely sweet heart named Tori made my experience a delight always making sure i was welcomed. The food was this alright

Food blows. But even worse is the service. It's the worst I've ever witnessed. Even the bouncers bully those who enter. You're best getting the manager as soon as you walk in because you're gonna need back up.

Staff are clearly hard working, hats off to them, but what baffles me is how such a large weatherspoons is constantly and consistently out of eggs benedict. Infuriates me when I go down for a breakfast once a week and the only thing I enjoy is unavailable week after week.

Slow service as only 1 member of staff (about 10.30ish) taking breakfast orders, drinks and trying to fill the glass shelves! 2 standard breakfasts arrived - stone cold! Spoke to member of staff who offered a replacement. 2 replacement breakfasts arrived - stone cold AGAIN!!! Eventually spoke to the manager - offered replacements again. This time they were just edible but the occasion was ruined. Over an hour, 6 breakfasts, 2 edible - absolute rubbish. Never again!

Really nice place good friendly staff and good food very clean and tidy One worth visiting

It does what it says on the tin. A good value for money dining experience. Fish, chips, mushy peas and a pint, all for £8.20. Part of their Monday to Friday mid afternoon deal. Table service without too much of a wait. Better value than the golden arches me thinks.

Still tons of dishes piled high around the hatch. There was no tomato on our sode salad. This was explained after we had eaten our meal. No delivery apparently. The staff are always polite and cheerful and seem on the go all the time.

Came in for breakfast but left disappointed. Nearly cold food, egg was square and bacon was chewy. My first coffee was nice but the second one was only half a cup so don’t think the machine was working properly. No body was clearing the tables so you had to wipe it over yourself. Only plus was it’s cheap at £2.99 plus £1.59 refill coffee. It’s a shame as we’ve eaten some really good Wetherspoon breakfasts at other locations where they freshly cook your eggs.

Have come to this Wetherspoons a few times with friends over the past couple of months, however the more we have come the more we have noticed many issues. First off, I am still awaiting a refund from nearly a month ago for food that never arrived, though the money was taken, and I am still jumping through hoops to have this refund processed. On top of this, a general lack of hygiene is evident throughout. You can excuse the sticky tables and empty glasses everywhere so much, but when there is no nozzle on the post mix guns (to ensure the correct syrup ratio) and dirt that is supposedly ‘marker’ from the waste count on our pitcher jugs it becomes unacceptable. Why is waste being completed in jugs that are used to serve the public? The staff at the bar are lovely, possibly the only redeeming factor, however the management staff have been repeatedly dismissive of queries from myself and other guests, to the extent of being plain rude. The food is often alright, though the serving sizes very inconsistent, such as hardly any nachos paired with hardly any cheese, hardly worth the nearly £6 charged. Additionally, the so called ‘pizza’ is more of a burnt flatbread, black around the edges and nothing to it. There are many other local pubs in the city centre far more deserving of your time and money.

Wait to long for your food and drinks the service was terrible

Average Wetherspoons experience

Excellent customer service and meal experience great 👍

It's a Wetherspoon, enough said

Great weatherspoons. And music on the weekend

Menu is limited due to shortage of items including bread and butter. Some drinks were not available, mixing head for coke, soda, etc. not working. All in all, it was pretty dire for a Spoons. Staff were very welcoming and apologetic. I felt sorry for them having to put up with people moaning at them. It's clearly not their fault.

It's a spoons very clean staff are great , table service fast good food and great deals

Typical Weatherspoons. This one was good. Staff pleasant. Food very quick and good despite being packed. Toilets clean

Curry in resatraunt, 50 quid ish. Curry chips or rice nann pomperdoms and a pint £11.99. What's not to like and we were full after it.

Friendly staff fast service, nice large clean pub, cold beer large beer garden definitely recommend and be back again good location, day two order food came out fast but stone cold very busy and got plastic glasses not good

The upstairs seating is nice, and so was the food. The atmosphere was very cosy on my last visit, and my food was about what I'd expect from any wetherspoons.

A standard wetherspoons in many ways, though this was a quiet Sunday, many food options were unavailable and there was nothing to advise what so alot of time spent trying to order. Service was OK though felt rushed.

Sorry - there are 4 Wetherspoons in Plymouth. I've been to all of them and from my last visit this is the worst, which is a shame because its a nice setting and quite roomy. The staff at the bar were giving priority to screen orders and not those people queuing. We had to clear dishes from the people before. We had to wait ages for our order and people who had come in behind us were getting their meals before us. When ours came the chips were cold and my burger was slightly burnt and rock hard on one side. We simply didn't have the time to send it back and wait for another. Won't be going there again. Prefer Mutley Plain or The Brit.
