The Whiffler - JD Wetherspoon in Broadland

I've been taking my wife up the whiffler once a month for years and it's always an enjoyable experience

Lovely food great service staff very friendly

Needs a make over,very tired.Foods good. The ladies toilet is a disgrace.

Really good location, nice modern inside and big garden

I only stopped for a cappuccino or three. Drink good and great to have bottomless coffee. Staff were friendly and efficient.

Never had a bad day in this spoons ,the staff are absolutely 💯 friendly polite & very sociable, this place is always busy & is a meeting place for many of all ages there curry's can't be beaten in my opinion & value is topmost for this spoons I have only had a bad beer once in the 30 years of using this pub & that was put right immediately 👍

This is more like a traditional local than a Wetherspoons. It has a good atmosphere and appeals to local people. Food is the usual Wetherspoons offer but served with a smile. Good range of beers. Service is good. This Wetherspoons has TVs, which is an unusual feature. I liked this particular Wetherspoons and happy to recommend it.

Good food arrived in reasonable time Could have been hotter and eggs hard

Very happy really. Recommend to us as a cheap and cheerful place to eat and that's what we got. Portions appeared to be quite small, but we were all 4 (2 kids 2 adults) fed well enough for about 30 odd quid. Hamburger didn't really taste of that much, chips were perfect, which is a win in my books, staff were all friendly and efficient. Pepsi max tasted like it came out via an old hosepipe, but then I've never liked pepsi lol. Location isn't exactly glamorous being on the ring road but that made it pretty easy to get to. There was just enough parking so that was nice. Clean toilets. I quite liked the decor with old maps of Norwich in. Not sure I'd make a bee line up here again, but pleased with the general Spoon's vibe if we need grub up the city again

We enjoy eating at the whiffler

Burger was lovely. Fed family of 6 for £70. That's mains (2 we're kids) and desert

What more can you ask for a brewery owned change. Food standard cheap drinks 🍸.

happy helpful bar staff couldn’t ask for more 10/10

Very nice garden. Nice staff. Thank you!

£3.80 for a pint of Guinness, you can't go wrong.

Great meal good service friendly people

Absolutely bouncing establishment

This is an odd Wetherspoons, kinda like council house Spoons. Very busy on a Sunday morning. Slowest breakfast service I have had in a Spoons. Beans and toast cold, sausage and hash brown very hot. Egg medium. One drink machine didnt fill the cups up, the other had an error. App said no hot chocolate but they did both have hot chocolate. Hard to find parking, tiny car park and people with vans and massive cars.

It's a Wetherspoons, so you know what to expect. Tired decor, always busy, ans less than enthusiastic staff. But super low prices and the real ale is ok.

Very poor experience. The pub stank and then met with rudeness from the waitress. Avoid!

The carpet absolutely stinks, had to walk straight back out again. Vile.

Wnet for breakfast it was cold amd disgusting won't be going back wasn't happy at all

Genuinely the only spoons I've been to with a car park

seamed a very nice pub... was busy but got drinks ok 👍 I've heard food

Always a good time and good value

Spacious pub with beer garden. Friendly staff and fair food.

I recently visited this pub, and as always, the atmosphere was fantastic. The prices are very reasonable, and the service is top-notch. Highly recommend!

Excellent foods, Thank you for your sharing

Great pub. Good food at good prices. Cheap drinks as its a wetherspoons. Feels like a local pub as its just off the mile Cross Estate

Good! Standard Wetherspoon food, as you would expect

Quite impressed with the rear garden, but not the frontage. I had the heathy fiesta brunch for breakfast with unlimited hot drinks for around a fiver. Plenty of room inside with a large open plan and small private hideaways. Some interesting descriptions of the history of Norwich on the walls.

Mixed grain salad, ok for a starter but not for a 10 quid main. Disappointed.

Usual range at wetherspoons. Has a lot of parking . Good for breakfast if your kotel does not do it.

Distinctly average, could have used a side plate the portion was that small

Friendly staff out of city centre. Small for the average wetherspoons.

First time in The Whiffler, went and had a drink, the place is very clean, staff are very friendly, there is some nice out side space to sit, gets very buzzy at weekends, could not find any think wrong with the place at all, would reconmend it.

The breakfast was good. Staff were lovely. Thank you 😊

The food was bland the steak that I've had was overcooked and chewy i didn't even get everything that i order ,so i will pass the whiffler next time .

Good location and good parking, even on a main road. Food was pretty good and even though the steak was not cooked to our liking, they replaced it quickly and without fussed. Then it was good.

Love Wethersoons. Outstanding service too!!

Got more doors than a Scooby-Doo hallway

Great outdoor space inside lacks flow , something is lacking in the ambience

Went here for tea last night with a friend. Barman gave me a dirty glass, completely with lip and finger marks all over it. Tried to tell me it was salt scratched from the dishwasher. Tables were sticky. Food not great and plates were just slapped down on the table by two people who continued their conversation while doing so. Toilets were clean though.

We are regulars in there the bar staff are rude sometimes and u can clearly see there is one person selling drugs outside the pub selling to one lady bar staff and the manager is aware if this I thinking shocking. No wonder why the pub is quiet and going down hill very fast the mangers should ashamed will never go back and 1 old guy has been banned for speaking up.

Food was reasonable,no complaints.

Waitress collecting glasses was dismissive when I thanked her. Is it so hard to acknowledge?

Friendliest serving staff in Norwich

I enjoyed the Raman bowl. My friend had the all day brunch. When seagulls attacked our meals, staff were very understanding and replaced our meals for free. I love the range of beers available. Just a good chain pub, that really does do what I like a local pub to do.

It's a nice place to meet friends for a catch-up.

The Whiffler is such a mixed bag of things. I imagine it as the 'bar in purgatory' in that some aspects are truly awful, but ultimately it does its job just fine. If you're just looking for drinks and a bit of colour then this is a great little stop off with plenty of parking and a considerable beer garden situated next to a busy ring road. That being said, the food here is not good. I'd prefer to have a little wander to the McDs next door that eat anything here.

God ace. Good beer prices. Busy and popular

Good value food and quick service

First time here for breakfast. Clean and spacious. All good cooked perfectly, served quickly and hot. Ideal!

Good service, good value for money and the food is excellent

April 15th 2024 my husband and I had a proper English breakfast 🥞🍳.

Great place to eat. We had a lovely time. Good parking. 👍

Friendly atmosphere, friendly staff and service, food came very quickly and was lovely, excellent job 👏

Excellent breakfast and coffee with free top ups. Set up for the day. Friendly staff and excellent service. Recommended

We visited the Whiffler Wednesday evening for a meal with my wife and her Parents. There were plenty of tables available as it wasn't too busy we could chat and enjoy our meal all the food was well prepared and presented. I had the large mixed grill see photo Thanks to all the Staff at the Whiffler

Always a good breakfast and a bonus of unlimited lattes.

Had a lovely lunch with my mates yesterday. Had the chilli beef. Mmmm. It was really tasty. And being a coffee drinker I had the refills. Great coffee. Wanted to take the machine home with me lol. Since my last review I have been here LOADS of times. With my husband mainly. Its the refill hot drinks & Scampi & chips that keep us coming back. Its a definite monthly ritual we come here. Sometimes more.

Positively The Whiffler doesn't have the typical "spoons" atmosphere. It's away from the city of Norwich, so there's no typical crowds in here like students. Staff are lovely, food was served quickly and served hot, also its very clean in this spoons. They also serve steak here.

Parking absolute nightmare food bland

The Whiffler is an excellent Wetherspoons. There was a good selection of quality cask conditioned real ales. It is a nice cosy pub and rare to find a Wetherspoon's with a car park. The staff were very friendly and efficient, and even though it was very busy we didn't have a long wait for the food. The burgers and the curry were excellent.

Best wetherspoons Ive tried yet

Good food cheap beer great atmosphere

Large breakfast, more like a child's breakfast

Went for breakfast, I had a big English breakfast, and my mum had a classic muffin, both really nice.

Very nice and friendly establishment

Went there for tea Had fish, chips mushy peas, when served sadly chips and mushy peas were like warm, but complained to a member of staff who took it away and cooked me it fresh including the fish excellent service

The Whiffler is always busy, probably because of the value for money food and drink. Where else can you get a pint of beer for £1.79 ? The service was quick and the food is reasonable quality especially for the price. I would recommend it for anyone on a tight budget as an alternative to the fast food chains.

This Wetherspoons was outside Norwich. So I expected it to be quieter but no, just as popular! We did get seats, though, toilets on ground floor .

Great place love the food and service

Good all round service an price as normal for a witherspoons pub.

Very nice breakfast and reasonably priced 🍳

Great pub 4 a cheap bit of grub n plenty of coffee

Food not that good. Meat pudding overcooked and hard. Mash had hard lumps. Not that hot and gravy served separately in a jug was cold and thick. Not impressed this time. 😕 Will eat elsewhere next time. Dessert was good, chocolate crunch with ice cream & chocolate sauce.

Foods great and my little girl love it there

Busy and super cheap wetherspoons!

My son and I having some lunch such a busy place have patience when waiting to be served overall good for the money

Pre Norwich City breakfast and a few coffees to set me up for the afternoon. A roomy and airy Wetherspoons in a 'locals' atmosphere. Good value as always.

This is the least wetherspoons iv very been to 🥺

Great place, love the fact it's round the corner too. Plenty of seating even on weekends and other busy days. Worth the small wait to have drinks with friends

Just what I'd expect of Wetherspoons good food and sensible prices with free parking to boot. excellent.

Went in for breakfast and was busy but the service for the lady behind the bar was 10 out 10 the breakfast was well presented and hot the lady brought to the table with smile will definitely go back again

Very good service. The real ales are good. Food value is ok.

Cold breakfast! Very disappointed

Very busy, excellent service 😃 and great friendly atmosphere

Sometimes when I go to The Whiffler with my family and order food well it takes about 5min for the meal to arrive at the table you have ordered to Brilliant service all round definitely a 5star And The team are just some welcoming people who have a great sense and personality Thank you The Whiffler team Your homie Blazer

Although it was extremely busy there was little wait for food which arrived promptly and was hot and tasty. Staff were excellent

Takes a bit of time to get service

I absolutely love going to weatherspoons the free parking is brilliant food is nice fast service and love the cocktails

Best value for money, amazing place. Prize pint of Abbott ale for just £2.70. Just love Weather spoons. Also they take cash. Everyone keep using the cash. Keep the ultra wealthy corporate banks off your money

Spacious and clean. I enjoy visiting here

A great venue for Coffee, Beers and Food.

Out of town, not like a typical Spoons Pub. Has a Country Local pub feel about the place.

Nice local place for a cheap lunch

An ok stop for a quick bite to eat. Food isn’t amazing but it is always more than ok and is very good value for money.

You know what you're getting with a Weatherspoon. Nice lunch

Really great afternoon menu. Haven't been to the Whiffler for many years and I didn't disappoint.
