Wetherspoon's Robert The Bruce in Dumfries & Galloway

A relatively smaller wetherspoon compares to others. During tea time it was not as hustling and bustling as I would expect. Good experience.

Food and drinks cheap as chips. Staff excellent.

Cheap and cheerfull Bland atmosphere

Great place for some great food

Really good tasty chips in Wetherspoons and the food is really good the staff are friendly and helpful if you have any questions.

Just dirty table was sticky and watched waitress clear table and not wipe it down won't be coming back

If i could give 0 on food service and over i would the quality of service was abysmal tried to kick me and my company out after a small misunderstanding the food if you can even call it that was sloppy and underwhelming i do not recommend coming if you want to have a good go to Carlisle as they are very friendly.

Really nice place good food an drink with great staff

Visiting Dumfries, called in with a group of 12, service was good behind bar, beer was good and pleasant staff.

Great food, the large breakfast filled us up plenty. Lovely building as well. Only 4 stars as my doggie wasn't allowed in!

Came for breakfast, food arrived was freezing cold send back and was microwaved, came back egg and bacon still frozen egg was solid. Waited more time for fresh bacon and egg and our extra beans. Manager couldn't even say a word to us. Girls serving us was lovely couldn't apologise more. The cook really should get some training. As a chef myself I would have been embarrassed to send that breakfast out. Disgusted today nobody ever bloody smiles either place is a prison. Table number bar 2 FYI. Been over 40 minutes table is still dirty next to us not been touched. Not like the place is busy today

Excellent service. Really nice staff and the app worked well for ordering food and drinks to our table.

Worst wetherspoons in the country. The triple burger was a joke... Guy behind the grill definately was sleeping. More edible meat on the bottom of my shoe than the 3patties I got. I know Wetherspoons is low budget but never had an issue in the past. Thanks but no thanks.

Always consistent quality of food and service highly recommended.

Cheap, fast pub grub. Very tastey, something for everyone.

FANTASTIC SERVICE FROM ALL STAFF TONIGHT.

This was a very nice place to visit.. What an experience visiting on a Thursday evening. We must have sat on somebody's regular seat lol

Usual Wetherspoon in a converted church.

Popped in for a bite to eat . Cannot thank staff enough for their attentiveness and hospitality. Went over the top for us when further requesting “takeaway” after breakfast deal.

Family friendly. Great pub food. Easy to use app. Quick service.

Friendly staff and great service

I had my birthday dinner here this evening. Friendly service, fantastic food and very nice atmosphere. 🎉

Don't order the pizza cardboard and treble service

The pizza is cardboard I eat it then I was sick

Everything was fine in this pub but cobwebs on the walls around tables 32/34 needs to be checked

Another nice building in a wetherspoons pub.

Perfection place to visit Dumfries

As always, a good choice of beers. The venue is comfortable and sta for a re friendly. Did not eat here so cannot comment on the food.

Barely any cheese on my cheesy chips. Inept waitress (the chubby one with dirty green hair) didn't even offer me any condiments (I always require extra salt).

not enough bacon on the pancakes, hot chocolate was good though eggs benedict was excellent yabadabadoooooooooooooo

Not the usual standard, battered fish arrived in pieces smaller portions than normal, still tasty, though.

They, couldn’t cope with our dinner, drink orders, but the coffee didn’t taste right. The toilet hadn’t been cleaned through our journey long stay and had got worse, but they reduced our bill by £2 (wow) because they admitted they screwed things up.

Terrible experience! The food was cold, service was slow, and the staff were incredibly rude. The restaurant was dirty. Definitely not coming back. Avoid at all costs!

Called for something to eat,not bad.

Great place to get some food, relatively priced. Quick service and very helpful staff

Friendly bar staff nice food. Reasonable prices. Just what you expect from a wetherspoons.

We're from out of town and loved the atmosphere here. Food is decent and it's self order. It's open late and perfect to relax for q weary traveler

It's a "Spoons" so it has a well known and trusted pedigree. This one lives up to all expectations. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Typical Scottish pup. The steak was outstanding. The drinks selection was plentiful. The service was nice and courteous.

Great catch up with an old friend. Good atmosphere. Speedy service. Nice food.

Your typical Wetherspoon. Food is good quality for the price quantity a little small. But for the price you can't complain. Staff were helpful, efficient, and friendly. I used the app for the first time, and overall, it was a good impression.

American burger not even american

Good points..Service was friendly enough and food came quick and was a place out the rain. Now not so good points... very poor quality food macaroni tasted like packet cheesy pasta (but not as tasty) and wasnt hot, the chips were overcooked and soggy and my drink had something floating in it!..the full place looks as if it needs a good clean the tables don't get cleaned after one customer to the next, menus were all sticky and the bar area also. Tbh I've only ever visited a few Wetherspoons but this was by far the grubbiest. The place was so noisy and not very nice to sit in and the toilet wasn't working either....100% won't be back tbh was worst macaroni I've ever tasted was rotten!...staff seemed pleasant enough😏

One of my favourite in the country!

This is one of the best spoons we have been in, and tables were kept clear of empty glasses. The food was also very good if we go back to Dumfries we will definitely go here again.

Food was lovely, and the staff were very friendly. I had a pint of Darkness stout and it tasted perfect👌♥️

Very good Burger and a Pint of Tennents Lager, both at a great price. Prices for both were well below those charged by their competitors in Dumfries. Will certainly be back.

We both have visited this establishment a few times over the years while in the area, we found the staff helpful and attentive, decor to be tired and could be doing with a refreshing, but at least the beer garden is under refurbishment for the three days of sunshine.

Food was dry and cold. Usually it's ok here but my mixed grill was not good. Service was excellent however.

Its an art form to serve an american burger with blacken edges and undercooked interior but then again it matched the burned roll. As for the curry, average at best, very small portion of chicken and grease running off the popadoms.chips luke warm. Never again.

Typical Wetherspoons, what you see is what you get. Cheap as chips

Staff were immediately accommodating. Very helpful and patient. I had the fish and chips, which were cooked to perfection. No grease at all. The ales were fully stocked as usual, however, I could not sample them all 😊 Overall impressions, Worth a visit.

This premise is designed beautifully and the food is delicious.

Quick service & food always hot!

We both visited this wetherspoon a couple of times while in the area area, we found the staff helpful and pleasant, the premises were a bit tired and dated perhaps requiring a refurbishment although the beer garden is in the middle of a refurbishment, on the downside the toilets are upstairs except for the disabled.

Friendly Staff. Food a bit hit or miss. Sometimes quite a wait for food or service as gets busy at weekends. Clean place suitable for kids.

Good for a quick.small meal then home

All I will say is 'look up'. I even got to enjoy a footy match.

Had a drink on the balcony floor and it was very nice Seating outside is available

If your looking for a cheap drink and food look no further, above average for the normal Witherspoon's, one of the best we've visited, friendly knowledgeable staff, very helpful.

Popped in here during a very brief trip to Dumfries. 1 x curry 1 x pizza 1 x pasta Alfredo, 1 x garlic bread and something else ordered. 3 meals were fine. But the pasta Alfredo wasn't good at all. Was straight out the microwave and the balance of cheese sauce and other ingredients wasn't there. I ordered chicken and it was cold sandwich style chicken added on top. Ordered on the app, meals and drinks arrived quickly. Staff were pleasant. It was fairly busy at the time (Thursday 7ish) At the end of the day it's a Spoons and it serves Spoons food.

I am rating them low for food and service because of fewer vegetarian options on the menu and service as I have wasted money, even though it's cheap on the coffee refill mugs recently. I say that because I have experienced something funny the last few times, the staff doesn't tell you about switching off the machine, when you are buying it or while doing it. I didn't face that problem before. However, I do feel that it's one of the best places in Dumfries to chill with friends and family or even on your own.

The service was absolutely brilliant considering how extremely busy it was Our meal ( steak ) couldn't fault it My only complaint was how busy and noisy it was

So my dad and my mum wanted to large Scottish breakfasts so my dad asked the lady for that and they got given a standard and the lady said he said standard but she was lying cos my mum heard him say large good macaroni and good food though

The guy with the beard is the epitome of cool, and his service wasn’t bad either. The food is just what you expect from a Spoons, which is good enough for us. The alcohol was exquisite as usual and perfectly priced for you discerning consumer. The waitress could have applied her enigmatic skills more diligently, but this was not a concern for us as enthusiastic gourmandizer. We would go back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Staff very helpful cleanliness alright little improvement after refurbishment food what you can expect for weatherspoons nothing exhilarating but would do if you were really hungry and couldn't find anywhere else

Another shady Spoons bar with little or nothing to tell it apart from all the others, nothing short of a drinking den, shame as the town could do with a decent bar such as Cavens just along the street, now that's a bar to visit, great staff, service and good food!!

1/2 roast chicken was more like 1/2 a roasted sparrow.

You get what you buy, quick and easy fills the stomach at a good price 😉

Standard pub fare. Ok for lunch time retreat on a cold day in winter.

Brilliant. Great staff and service.

Great staff and prices are very good.

Phone wouldn't work with the app but managed to order at the bar. Food was really quick. Burger was good, fries were even better 👍

Fast service not a bad little weverspoons for the Scott's

It is a weatherspoon. I was forced to go here by the majority in my group. I would not have chosen to go here. Staff were lovely. Food was the same as any cheap pub grub.

Good value for money friendly staff

Good place to have a drink or go for a meal

Buena comida, buen precio y ambiente agradable!

When we visited the place was undergoing some refurbishment work so there was no meals on offer. Refurbishment work will be finished before Christmas and this should make a big difference so I look forward to it being finished

Wetherspoons has taken a hit PR wise but this place is made better because of its staff! Prices are silly cheap as well! Only downside is a lack of music

Brutal honesty here. All the surfaces here; including the tables, chairs, menus, forks and knives are sticky and in need of a very serious clean. Most of the food served and presented is below the average standard of pub grub. Chances are you'll end up getting a wrong order (trust me, I've seen it happen.) That also includes your drinks. Speaking of drinks, this spoons happens to never re-stock their barrels. Every bloody pint I've had was still and watery and what did the staff do upon complaint ... ? Nothing. If you're coming here with a pal for a nice drink, meal and conversation ... Good luck to you. When it reaches 7:00 in the afternoon, every table and chair is filled by either groups of young drunk folk or drunk pensioners trying to speak as loud as possible. The entire building sounds like a Metallica concert by noon because of the amount of people talking. What makes it worse is everybody trying to compete over each other , therefore shouting even louder , constant loop of noise. The smoking area is either filled with 'creepy joe' pensioners speaking a load of nonsense or young lads high on substance bouncing about so good luck having a cigarettte. Overall , this spoons is more of a drinkers bar compared to a resteraunt bar. I'd recommend it for a night or two , but not as a regular stop unless you're catching some pre-pints before a pub crawl !!

Lovely breakfast everything was hot & tasty.

I had a breakfast muffin which was grim. Muffin was cold, bacon was tough, fried egg was cold and tough whilst the cheese didn't have enough heat from it's surroundings to melt it. Sausage was warm and seemed fresh. I did eat most of it as I as I was hungry and it was edible. I mentioned this to the shift supervisor who cleared my plate and he did apologise but did nothing further. I have had many of these breakfast muffins in a range of wetherspoons and this was by far the worst.

Can get quite busy, app ordering works well here.

Typical Wetherspoon value for money, can't fault it.

Far better quality and price than many other dinners for a midday meal.

I went about a month ago but but forgot to leave a review. Staff were very attentive and food good.

Came in for a family meal. We ordered a curry, 5 bean chilli and steak and kidney pie along with drinks. For us it was great value and really friendly staff. Nice and quiet for a Sunday evening.

Food would be so much more tasty if it was served hot and not Luke warm- shame really as lovely n clean staff polite visited twice to make sure it wasn't the same Luke warm but sadly it was

Clean and tidy. Good atmosphere and typical wetherspoons food. Tasted great. Only thing to think about is parking.

Dreadful food! Double Cheeseburger with a pint, cost me £9.00 and was absolutely awful. Tiny burger with a very small portion of chips&that was it!!! Barely enough for a child, covering less than 1/2 the plate. Worst food in a Wetherspoons EVER The pub itself was reasonable, with friendly staff & a little outdoor seating area BUT the food really can't be excused.

The first thing I noticed was that every surface - bannisters, tables, menu, bar - was sticky and in need of a thorough clean. The food that came was not what we ordered, eg Haggis Paninni instead of Ham and Cheese Paninni. A pint instead of a half. The overall impression was that the place is underfunded, understaffed and undercleaned.

It’s a weatherspoons what you see is what you get.

Ideal little spot in beautiful Dumfries. Good quality, no wait times, friendly staff. Ideal.

My first time at a "spoons". Had I known what I was getting into I'm sure I would have liked it more. Food was edible but not great. The atmosphere makes you think you're walking into an authentic Scottish pub but it's a chain. The American equivalent would be something like an upscale Waffle House. The staff was great though, that was the core redeeming quality for me.

As stated above good food, service, and atmosphere, most wetherspoons are a good place to eat whether out for the day or on holiday, and reasonably priced

food excellant and prompt where not waiting long

Great two nights here, food was great and a mistake was fixed very easily with our food. Great staff and service from them.

Firstly, may I say that my previous experiences, school reunions, Birthday dinners etc in your establishment have been excellent, with excellent service. I was surprised therefore yesterday to find myself being told off by a bearded young gentleman in the management team loudly and rudely, and in the most public and embarrassing way possible, for an imaginary incident involving my having just urinated in public. We returned from the smoking area to find our dinner, which we had only begun to eat, had been transferred to the bin. It was explained that the brief trip to the smoking area had taken over half an hour. If an accommodation could be reached regarding the ruined dinner, I would be most grateful.

Usual whetherspoons does what it says on the tin. Busy location, so imagine at would have 'atmosphere' in evening.
