The Wilfred Owen in Shropshire

Like a usual spoons - good beer at great prices

Took friends who have never been here before...breakfast was good value but the unlimited tea and coffee stand was a joke for a Saturday morning...place was full and only one machine working which led to long queues 10 deep to get tea and coffee....staff friendly but something should have been done as hot water for tea available behind bar but if you didn't know that you queued for ages... Breakfast good and served hot..

Nice place to eat with family and friends

There was an issue with my order, this was resolved promptly

Well done spoons, always good. 😃

Loads of seating, access for wheelchairs, great choice on menu, staff were amazing

Ahhh, been five years since we've been back and the first thing going was lunch at Wetherspoons in Oswestry. It hasn't changed. It has remained just as we like it...good food, fair prices. It was pizza for hubby and the scampi for me...hot, good and filling and the server (with her beautiful red hair) was a delight. Yep, we is back!

Busy pub in the heart of Oswestry food ok good service good selection of beers at a very reasonable price

Good service and food. Value for money.

Did not eat so cannot comment on food but it was disappointing. We usually do not go into Weatherspoons as they do not allow dogs but this time we were with friends.

Order an alcohol free cider on the app. Brought to the table and the server’s asked for ID which I’ve happily provided. Then told as my licence is out of date it’s not valid. Despite me explaining that it’s still valid as a government issued document and explained it’s a medical licence and the reason why it’s still valid. I’m covered in tattoos… He’s also decided to refer to me as a bloke despite clearly being a girl with bright pink hair and pink sunglasses on the table… Bit of a joke really for an alcohol free beverage. I’m 26. Clearly your government issued documents don’t apply god forbid someone else comes in with a medical driving licence 😂

Brilliant staff held onto my daughters teddy after we had left it behind having lunch until we could return for it 🙂

The food was good and didn't have to wait long. Very important! If I had to find one negative its that tables aren't cleared often enough

breakfast was good once i took the small one back and got what i ordered

Good value breakfast, I had the freedom breakfast and husband had the sausage on toast... Everything for price was great. Outside is fab with flowers and outside seating area but inside is dated and feels old fashioned. Buy tea or coffee and get unlimited refills...poor quality tea bags and not as good as they used to be..

Building looks unappealing from the street, but fine inside. Mostly one big room, so plenty of tables but can be rather noisy. Decent sized outdoor area at the back. Service fine, only had coffee but no complaints and both machines working. Gents toilets a bit oddly laid out but fine. No dogs allowed, which won't be to everyone's taste, but not being a dog person I appreciate having somewhere to eat/drink that isn't obsessed with being dog friendly at all costs! For a cheap drink or fill-up, this hits the spot.

Good food and service. Nice and clean.

Fish and chips good BUT no vinegar.....

Absolutely lovely little gem .the customer service was ace nothing was a problem to them . food was cooked to perfection and a great friendly atmosphere even when my asd 7 yrs old was having a meltdown nobody stared tutted etc which is a rare thing so felt totally at ease .the bar staff waved through the window on way back down from the very clean toilets as well which again i thought was great definitely go back

Tabor 42 clean table, breakfast ordered on the app nice and easy, coffee very good value , breakfast hot tasty and cooked well, service was very good the young lady was efficient and professional, went to outside area after breakfast, very clean tidy and lovely hanging baskets, overall extremely happy with every thing. Thank you team Wilfred Owen.

We got there and they had run out of food absolutely fuming

Had a lovely meal and a few drinks, spot on

Had the curry night special. Curry cold. Nan bread and popadoms greasy .chips also cold. Ate there a few times, food always rubbish.. gave them benefit of the doubt but will never eat there again. Food is woeful

Food was excellent. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The staff ensured that everything was ok with your meal. A great touch.

Had texas burger and chips, was ok nice atmosphere staff very friendly

Been a while since I visited last, looks like new carpet and pleasant atmosphere for a cheeky late breakfast.

Cheap and cheerful like all Wetherspoons

Went to wilfred owen with family, needed to go for a piss and was greeted by a staff member after at the table with my family and accused of drug dealing because i spoke to a lad for a second on the way up to toilets 😂 poor service and staff wouldnt show me ‘drug dealing’ nor would they call police. Manager was so stuck up that im surprised there wasn't a stick coming out her mouth.

Had a mixed grill, cannot complain chips crispy, meat not bad cooked but that half tomato either cook it over leave it raw🤢, apple crumble the filling was nice and ice cream but the crumble itself, I'll be open it needs cooking more it was like powder in the mouth, I mean they have masters the other desserts but always seem to fail with the crumble,

Always busy but the staff work hard to keep things flowing and so there is rarely much of a wait. Food arrives piping hot and well cooked. I ordered burger, chips and 6 onion rings with lemonade which came to £7 something which I thought was very reasonable. However to add a slice of cheese to the burger cost £1.50 plus! I like the fact you can order and pay from your table it suits the introvert in me. My partner likes the free refills on hot drinks I generally find the place a little too noisy for my liking as its quite a large room and it nearly always full. The atmosphere is pleasant however. The toilets are on the second floor which may be a problem for those with mobility issues however the stalls are roomy and clean. All in all a decent place to pass some time while waiting for your bus or to take a break from the strain of shopping!

Some wonderful staff, but the food is as with all Weatherspoons. Decent on a good day. Atmosphere was nice. Staff make this place.

Food arrived quickly and was great value. Good to see the staff taking concern for customers with one chap shouting to himself in a comedy voice playing a gambler!

Very busy, staff didn’t take the orders very well as they didn’t even know their own menu.. Asides from that the food was spot on and was a good atmosphere overall!

We had lunch. It was a Ramen Noodle Soup, yummee!

Busy but our food came quickly. Breakfast was good but all 4 eggs were a bit over so not too runny

Steak night very nice good catch up with a good friend

Friendly staff, pleasant generic food. Nice Breakfasts!

Popped in on a Sunday afternoon. The pub was about half full but most people were outside so there was plenty of room inside. The food arrived promptly and was good quality and good value for money. The staff were very pleasant. Couldn't ask for anything more. Have been twice now and will visit again.

Young man absolutely disgusting behaviour so rude to my mother in law then she was expected to apologise for tapping his elbow what a joke never will we return made us all feel so uncomfortable for a tap and she kindly asked for our table to be cleaned his over reaction was totally unnecessary

Sizeable and comfortable town centre Wetherspoons pub. Also with a large beer garden at the side. Staff helpful and friendly enough. Enjoyed good breakfast here, cooked well. A good place to just go for a beer, eat or just a coffee with friends.

Excellent breakfast as always with lovely service.

Typical spoons was very busy good pint

This is the third time that I have attempted to come here to be told yet again that they are not serving food tonight. Worst weatherspoons ever.

This is the best Spoons ever. Excellent food and service, Compliments to the chef and management.

I've been there a few times, typical spoons but one of the nicer ones.

For a Spoons, this place is excellent. Decent food and efficient service at a great price and very clean.

rudest service in the world from jas, it cant be an easy place to work i get it, or it might be a bad day, but dont treat paying customers like dirt on your shoes

Exactly what you'd expect from a Wetherspoons. Good prices, ok food with brilliant service. A good place for a quick lunch during the week, food was on the table less than 10 minutes after ordering.

I have left a review many years for The Wilfred Owen, and at the time it was poor. But in the last few years there has been a big improvement in the food, service and availability of products. My most recent visit today was just as good. Served quickly and the was food hot. No problems at all.

If I could give it zero - I would … Side order was put on child’s place and not served with the meal ordered. A big discussion ensued without the manager noticing accepting that it was a mistake. Wow. No customer service skills here - avoid

Normally come here for breakfast on my day off, however, won't be from now on. Paid £15.98 for two breakfasts and drinks. I said I did not want beans, but was charged for them. No offer was made by the officious bar person to replace the beans. I pointed out that I had been charged for beans but had already presented my card. Stroppy individual said 'Well I did offer'. Yes, after I had paid. Effectively the attitude of the staff has cost The Wilfred Owen two customers! Get some decent staff with customer service skills!

Has a good outside garden to sit out.great staff. Friendly and helpful.

Great breakfasts and coffee, spot on. Why go anywhere else always open always decent 👌 And a great pint of Brewdog PUNK

Early evening tea, dood tasty service as expected but atmosphere dull. But i didn't expect anything else.

I had fish chips with mushy peas and curry and a cherry Pepsi The staff were very nice the toilets so good. It was really nice. I'm definitely gonna go back again. I hopefully they're get the Burger next time. I saw someone else having it and it looked really nice

Fantastic fish-and-chips Coke, the stuff were really helpful. The places absolutely nice the toilets were in very good condition

Usual weatherspoons evening out - no frills, clean toilets etc - prices really good value, service as usual very good 🤔

Lovely staff always happy to help and nothings too much trouble

Extremely hardworking staff who are always friendly no matter how much pressure they are under.....best Weatherspoons by far out of all the one's I've been to across the U K.

The food is fine but the beans are too sweet and stale and the hot chocolate is quite discussing for me

I’ve been here several times, I liked everything, except the waiters, they try to clear the table too quickly, I went out to smoke outside, I come back 3 minutes later, and my table is empty, they took away everything, food and drinks, you should always ask the client whether he’s finished eating or not ,

Always clean and tidy, it's more of a restaurant than a bar, and the customers reflect that. There's no gambling machines to play on or fun things for children to do, but they do have a TV and a fireplace. UK law 9pm no children allowed. Staff have never been less than perfect, and I feel safe with them. No terrible music. It doesn't get very loud in there or over crowded, which is why I love it. I also love that my food always tastes great, looks presentable, and I can order more cocktail pitchers to my table from the app. Better than most (tables are not sticky and there are condiments) There are a few steps and a slightly steep ramp to access the building. Since almost all Wetherspoons have the bathrooms above the restaurant, this one is no exception except there doesn't seem to be an alternative way to get up the staircase. There is a concrete back garden space that is up a couple more steps with benches and lovely flowers. There's a car park nearby that's a quick walk to get to, which is free during out of hours (always check!) and lit up at night.

Diabolical breakfast. Undercooked bacon raw mushroom and cold beans. Disgusting no other word for it

Great weatherspoons nice and clean 🫧

Frier on the blink! Can you believe that the frier was on the blink! I did not receive what I ordered. Bland, filler type food, not that it filled me up! The only positive was the cheap nice beer!

I did not receive the food that I ordered via the app. Apparently, the only frier they had, was on the blink, affecting the 'Pub Classics' more than any other section of the menu. Can you imagine the calamity if the microwave gave up the ghost! They would have to give the 'chef' an unscheduled day off! Would not recommend at all. Disappointed with the food that was provided, I know it's not gourmet cuisine, but come on, there are basic standards to adhere to.

As with all wetherspoons crazy cheap! I believe the Wilfred Owen had the nation's cheapest pint of Carlsberg only 2-3 months ago! Besides being cheap and cheerful the food was great and despite the bar being a large open space it didn't get too loud; you could actually have a conversation! Need to go here more often.

The food (pizza! Why isn’t it on the list to comment on below!?!?) and beer were great, the staff were polite, hospitable, and helpful. Some other clientele were a unnecessarily noisy but otherwise all was good! Thanks!

Breakfast was best we've had from the spoons we've been to and the service staff were very friendly and upbeat. Marked down on atmosphere as it gets a bit loud with background noise. Just need some low level music or something to break it up but that the case with every spoons you go to.

Went for breakfast, ordered a normal breakfast would never order a veggie breakfast and they give me a veggie breakfast and did not offer me a refund or change the breakfast, won’t be back. Attitude from the manager was awful.

Lovely outside space on the station almost. Great outside space. Everything fine as you would expect

Smashing staff and always somewhere to sit and enjoy their coffi, even when it's busy.

Visited twice this week and on both occasions the customer service was outstanding. On one occasion I ordered 3 breakfasts but staff noticed there were 4 of us, so the bought us an extra plate in case we wanted to share. Very thoughtful! They weren't to know our disabled child was nil by mouth. Yes the place could do with a refurbishment but you have to recognise the great prices and great staff. This place has a ramp for wheelchair users too although it's a little steep for self propelled users or heavy chairs.

The food was nothing short of awful, it was not too warm when put on the table and when asked how I was enjoying it I said as much .... the lady who worked there then proceeded to remonstrate that I was not at the table when she served it, when to be fair I was only getting a refill of my coffee, but the way she went on and on about it you'd have thought o wax away on a fortnight's holiday. I normally tell people to try for themselves and not read too much onto my experience BUT on this occasion I'd say "AVOID AT ALL COSTS"

Food was good and beer was cheap. Service quick, very good. Bit of a musty smell on the stairs going up to the toilets but looks like the carpet has been down a while. Staff were friendly and efficient

An excellent Spoons. Clean, pleasant surroundings. Our fish and chips were lovely. The Leffe Blonde was superb.

Lovely food, especially the cookie dough 😋 Great staff, very friendly and efficient. Thank you!

Very nice Wetherspoon pub with polite friendly staff. Good food well presented, I had the fish & chips which plenty big enough. Clean and tidy.

Good place for a quick meal, and to dodge the rain!

This is 2 time they have forgotten my food not happy with it as first time they were sorry gave me free drink this time they never did much so not happy

The food can just ok at times be just after all it it a spoons, it is getting better, but staff are ALWAYS friendly and polite so we keep on going back

Good food, very good service and excellent value. Can't understand why the place wasn't packed out.

Modern Wetherspoons. Great service and helpful staff.

Friendly staff, our meal was hot and freshly cooked I thought the chips were a bit dry. It was 3/4 full but I thought it didn't have much of an atmosphere. Pleasant for a quick meal.

Been going there along time all the above well deserved ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Served by a lady called Jas, I'm assuming a manager as she appeared to be training someone. Just a downright unpleasant woman. If someone is spending their own leisure time and hard earned money to come out in your pub we don't expect to be callously ignored and have our drinks slammed on the table after an online order (I have hip difficulties). No wonder the place is dead if thats the attitude you're met with!

Classic chain pub in a clean place with speedy services.

You know what your getting when at wetherspoons so always enjoy

Always busy. Good value food wise. Nice and central in town.

Aesthetically, probably one of the least character full Spoons but absolutely no issue with the food and service. Ordered six small plates - three varieties of chicken, loaded chips, pizza and halloumi fries. All came quickly, generously portioned and piping hot. Am guessing poor reviews came when the place was understaffed and buzzing. Go when quieter and should be fine.

Had large mixed grill with a diet pepsi reasonable priced.

No longer value for money, have been to Wetherspoons pubs in different locations, over the years, never been the best food around, but was value for money, the last few times we have been haven’t rated the food, portion size has gone down, quality hasn’t improved, if it was my choice wouldn’t have chosen to go there, but it was a group of family and friends, was dissatisfied with my meal, it was hunters chicken, jacket potatoe meal, the jacket potatoes was dry and overcooked brown inside. I did complain, was asked what I wanted a replacement or a refund, chose the refund, would only have a drink there in future, thebar was busy, and it was clean, that’s the good points from this visit, much better quality and prices elsewhere near by, we ate later on in the day at a lovely old pub, the food was all homemade, and much better value, for money, we had gone for the day out in Oswestry.

Good food and enjoyable cocktails.

dirty tables steak chewy Whole place looked dirty... Wouldn't go again Dont recommended at all

Consistent as always 😊 Staff were very friendly and wasn’t too busy even on a Friday and Saturday night. Plenty of tables and large beer garden. Great service!

Nice Pub, service was fast & very good from staff, food good, needs more air as a bit stuffy as side windows closed

Good Good, but rude staff, let's just open the big doors while customers sit there, could have waited till they had finished.

Had a nice drink in here, in beer garden..Staff quick service and friendly..😁

Great place for breakfast and staff very friendly

Like majority of all Spoons good food with reasonable prices.
