We came here thinking it was still a weatherspoons but it is not, it's had a pint job but all the same old furniture and damaged toilets clearly not a improvement the, We only popped in as we still had 1 hour and 20 mins parking, plenty of time for a beer n burger, not the case however, it's now table service only and took 20 minutes to get served, then 20 minutes after that my wife had to go and ask for the drinks only to hear a member of staff in the background shout "we're busy what does she f###### expect" not the best tbh, Then time started ticking and our food was not arriving nor was anybody else's food who had been served before us, when it got to the point that we had been there for over 1 hour and only had 15mins on the parking, I went up to pay for drink the and cancel the food, the manager who canciled my order was okay however their was a woman in the little room at the end of the bar wavering her writs around shouted "what the f### do they expect?, Well to clear things up for that member of staff who clearly can't control her emotions and clearly should not be employed to serve in a restaurant, I'm not asking for the world when I say, I'd like a drink in my had within 40 minutes of entering an establishment and I'd like my burger within 1 hour and I'd really like to not hear foul language and insults shouted towards me while at the bar by someone who can't control their emotions at work.

Another great visit, on a Friday for a change. I had fish and chips, my wife scampi and chips with a side order of 12 onion rings. With this we had 2 pints of Stella all for £19.35. It was already cheap until we saw that after 2.00 you get a bit more knocked off. Good cheap beer as well as good cheap food.

Visited earlier than we normally would on a Saturday afternoon. It was busier than usual with more people having food than when we usually go in. I ordered the empire state burger and my wife a chicken burger. It was a longer wait than usual through how busy they were. When they came mine seemed small and not tall. But my wife's was taller than it should have been. My burger should have had 4 burgers on it. Then I noticed that her chicken burger had beef burgers on. She had 2 of my burgers with her chicken burger. Surely who was putting the burgers together would have noticed that they were putting beef burgers on top of a chicken burger. Surely realising it isn't right. Because of being busy it wasn't as nice as usual. I know it's cheap and cheerful in a wetherspoons pub but surely they should get that right.

A birthday treat from my son. He ordered with the app. Food and drink arrived swiftly. Me and the wife had scampi and chips with onion rings, my son had the empire state burger also with onion rings. All food was good as it always seems to be for us here. The only way you can fault this pub is the tables don't get plates etc cleared and cleaned as often as they should. But there are far worse wetherspoons for cleans tables etc.

We visited on a Saturday afternoon before a night out. We go here a couple of times a month and we've never had a bad meal. It's good wetherspoons food. This time was no different apart from after we'd left my wife told me her knife had the previous users meal over it and showed me a pic of it. You expect better at wetherspoons I'll think twice and check the cutlery now. This is disgusting do the staff check what they are sending out.

Myself and 2 friends came here for a meal before going to see a show across the road at the theatre. We arrived in plenty of time as we thought it would possibly be busy with it being valentines day aswell. We managed to get a table and ordered our food on the app, which never mentioned any wait times for food. We had meals that included drinks. The drinks came but after over an hour we still had no food. And drank our drinks, we went to see how long the food would be as we would not have time to eat it if it was much longer. To be told by a young lad, it will get to us when it gets there. We cancelled order because another lady behind the bar told us the food hadn't even been started. We got our refund but they still had the nerve to charge for the drinks that should have been part of the food order. I do not blame the staff that was working that night as apparently they only had 2 cooks and 3 front of house. Very poor organisation for a busy night. There were alot of complaints being over heard in the theatre as there was quite alot of people had the same idea, to have a nice meal before the show. In my opinion, they should be checking when shows are on and also being valentines day and they should plan ahead and be prepared with full staff available. Very annoyed that we were charged for drinks too, after all the inconvenience caused.

Visited on valentines day with my wife. They had an offer of 2 mains, 2 puddings and 2 drinks for £18. I had hunters chicken with chips and my wife had a steak with chips. I couldn't fault mine. My wife said her steak was a bit grizzly on the edges, but was fine. We both had chocolate fudge cake with ice cream. It was very nice. We understand that you don't go to a Wetherspoon pub for fine dining. But if you want decent food at a very good price then you can't it here. Staff were nice enough and the service good. One problem is the toilets are upstairs. We've been here plenty of times and never had a bad meal.

After a bracing walk in nearby Sherwood Forest with this being the nearest Wetherspoon establishment it was ideal for my friend and I to satisfy our thirst and hunger at somewhere which neither of us had visited before so it is good to report that we weren't disappointed. The service and comfort of the pub was first class though I have to say that my Ultimate Burger wasn't the best I've ever tasted especially as the Onion Rings that accompanied it were virtually inedible but the you usually get what you pay for and at the reasonable prices charged there is surely no cause for complaint. A nice touch was that a charming waitress asked if everything was in order with our food and drinks while I have to give special praise to my refreshing glass of lime soda which was first class. All in all, a good dining experience.

Upon meeting friends for lunch we were aware of a gent under the influence sitting near to us consuming cans of Carling under the table. He was soon joined by a woman clearly under the influence. We ordered food and drinks whilst they were very vocal with one another. Whilst wating the guy came over and threatened us saying we should leave before his girlfriend 'had' us. We informed staff.Next he returned again asking us to tell his girlfriend that we had been told and we should leave before she attacked us. He was barely able to stand. Staff acknowledged but refused to ask the threatening, drunken couple to leave even though there were many witnesses. We left the premises to avoid further confrontation. Very disappointed.

We have visited this pub on a weekly basis for over 2 years.Recently more tables have been crammed in making dining with a family almost impossible. You cannot get a pushchair or wheelchair around the tables or set up a high chair without disturbing an adjacent table.Today I had to get up 3 times during my meal to let a pushchair through.Staff are disinterested by the plight of families and the disabled.Surely this is contrary to accessibility laws!Please get this sorted so visitors can have a nice atmosphere to eat and drink in again.

Your standard sort of Weatherspoons pub, but with it's locality near the Mansfield Palace theatre there are often times when you struggle to get served at the bar, they seem to be trying to push everyone to use the order by app as these seem to be serviced fairly quickly. I have a few times stood waiting to be served for 10 to 15 minutes because there is only 1 staff member covering a bar that is probably 30 meters long.

I visited the Widow Frost in Mansfield,for a business meeting and due to my training as a highly trained Fire and health and safety officer previously with the MOD,I noticed that one of the fire exits was partially blocked.I immediately reported this to management and,showed my business card,staff totally ignored me,blatantly refused to offer names and was ultimately insulted with approx 4 staff and 6 customers present.I ultimately got a fellow member to confirm the facts,that there are no fire extinguishers present in the building,which should be placed,especially near fire exits My colleague,was very concerned and informed me that there could be hundreds of people,unable to escape in the event of a fire This situation happened only recently in Nottingham,when reportedly the train station was targeted for arson.I intended to call Witherspoon head office,but staff,were unable to supply details,irrespective of me being adamant,that I was also a mystery shopper I intend to contact head office,local council building safety and local fire authority I believe as does my colleague,that this premise could be a fire incident,waiting to happen,please be fully aware,as you could be at serious risk,should a fire happen in the building It didn't help with young inexperienced staff,with horseplay and canoodling behind the bar and kitchen area,in view of the public Not exactly the way to run a business,especially when staff resent valid concerns,BEWARE,or take the risk.

Recently visited with my elderly mother, nipped in for a spot of lunch after shopping. Basic menu, I decided to treat myself to a burger (one of the things on the menu that isn't microwaved) my mother had fish and chips. Once we had waited for half an hour (in an empty pub) the meal arrived. My mother's was stone cold and dripping in grease, my burger was pink in the middle. After explaining this to a female manager she sighed rolled her eyes and said, 'Right I suppose you're after a fresh one then' no apology no manners. I then heard a group of people bragging about how they had been served under age. One said it was their 17th birthday and to be fair they looked about 15. Don't understand why the standards of this pub has dropped so far. It's a real shame. Then again when she manager has such an attitude there's no wonder. I mentioned the state of the toilets aswel and she just shrugged her shoulders. Won't be back!!

Went here for breakfast. A table of ladies were knocking back the pints, at 9.45am! What ridiculous laws allow people to get drunk at breakfast? This Wetherspoons is a lot more pub like than the other Wetherspoons around the corner. Breakfast is very cheap. We were told they had no bagels, so we just had drinks. I had a hot chocolate, possibly the worst I have ever had the misfortune of trying. When we were almost finished, the server came and told us that 'some bagels had been found.' Found where, I don't know, so we passed. If you want to sit in a typical old style pub, go to the Widow Frost. If you want somewhere a bit more open, and nicer, go to the Stag and Pheasant around the corner.

Sometimes I give the places I go to downbeat and often scathing reviews because I believed at the time that they deserved it. I have to admit I did one of such ire a long while ago for this one. But if quick to be critical, can also be quick to celebrate too.And that's because of late, we've started going back in here again. Have been for a few weeks now to be fair, and can honestly say that on each occasion the service and quality have been consistently very good indeed. Friendly bar staff who remember your choice after just a few visits. That doesn't even happen often at my local Spoons and I've been going to the former cinema in Sutton for years now.Good quality, well maintained beers at a reasonable price and all in all a pleasant ambience to go with it too. So much so that we've now made it our regular meeting place and staging post when we are in town for the shopping, the theatre or the footy. As, it would appear, would the broad spectrum of punters who also use it. A recommendation in itself.It always seem to be busy when we go there but not that busy that it's verging on uncomfortable - you can generally find a table or a corner somewhere. Serving is generally prompt too, might be a short wait sometimes and they don't operate the ghastly queueing up mechanism that some establishments do. No need to with grown up pub-savvy patient customers and competent bar staff who can actually keep tabs on who needs serving next. So in summary, would recommend it and have never had a problem whatsoever of late. Thanks to all concerned and long may it continue!

Never had a problem inside, staff usually helpful and pleasant. They are hugely let down by the door staff.On an evening out during the festive period, I witnessed a verbal altercation between a woman and 3 door staff. After each side talked to the police, the woman walked away from the situation but remained close by, awaiting a taxi. Quite inebriated, she slumped on the floor with her mobile in hand whilst she waited. One member of the door staff who was involved in the squabble proceeded to walk up to her with his phone in hand set to camera and took a video or photograph of her whilst saying "Look at this sl-g" and such like. She had consumed too much, but that does not give someone who is meant to be in a position of trust, to take advantage of her vulnerability for their amusement. Due to this, I have made a decision to NOT visit this pub anymore. Door staff are supposed to keep patrons safe. Not ridicule and take the mickey out of them in a demeaning way as this.

My other half and myself used to live coming here but the past 3 times we have been extremely disappointed. We have just had he worse meal yet, I asked for a steak medium-well due to being heavily pregnant, it came very pink but only half was edible anyway due to it being pretty much fat, the peas didn't even taste cooked (how hard is it to cook peas?). My partner had a burger and that was also pink! How can you send out a under cooked burger? Do the chefs not use probes to check if the food is cooked? His plate also had curry left on it from the last meal served on it! As he tried to complain to the waitress she ignored his attempt and just walked off. No one came to check the meals had been ok!!! Oh and the meals didn't even get cleared away for a while because the waitress appeared to avoid us knowing we were unhappy! Will not be giving this place another chance!

Often visit Widow Frost with my parents for "steak Tuesday" which is normally pretty good. For the price the steaks are decent. Staff are happy to help although can be short staffed at times.

Always have lunch here most Tuesdays and the staff are always friendly and welcoming but today it was so bad the barman served everyone but me even though I had been queuing for 10 mins . He seemed to be serving his friends b4 he served me . I had to ask for the table to be cleaned n when the food came it was cold ... the young girl tried to resolve the problem and apologised but after an hour I just wanted to go ... it was the worst experience I have had in a Wetherspoon public house !!!!!!

After a quite exceptional meal at WS in Norwich last week, my wife and I decided to have lunch at the widow frost In Mansfield. As my wife's doombar and steak pie was lovely In Norfolk I decided to try it instead of my normal choice of steak. The item looked fine, although I did notice the small potions of chips and peas, however inside the pie was dreadful. Fatty gooey meat, absolutely horrible. I left the inside uneaten, the pastry was ok, nice texture 100% better than what lived inside. Cold chips and a dirty table finished off an unimpressive effort. God knows what sort of animal the meat had previously existed as, but I fear it may not have been introduced to any bovine family, as steak it certainly wasn't.

My fiancee and I visited for a `skinny `steak, which was OK for sirloin, but the waitress brought out dessert half way thru our main course, then blamed us , saying we should have ordered the dessert at the same time as we ordered main course at the bar.But been there before and ordered dessert at same time as main course, and the waitress always brings the dessert out too early, before we had finished main course.So we found the waitress on this day, 25/09/16 very rude, complaining bitterly to us saying she would take the dessert back to the kitchen `just this once` but in future we must order our dessert at the bar at the same time as our main course, I don`t recall the waitress`s name, but she was very bad tempered and seemed to be taking her bad mood out on us.I then had to go to the bar and request our dessert, which she brought back to our table at the correct time.So as we have been going there for about 10 years, and recently twice a week, we were very disappointed with the surly attitude of most of the staff, only the barmaid who took my order seemed cheerful to serve us, but even so, she did not bother to enquire if we wanted a dessert.Also they did not bother to come round and ask if our meal was ok.Actually the `skinny` sirloin steak we both had, was a bit fatty, and the plates were COLD!

Usual Wetherspoons, excellent pint of Broadside, the chilli was disappointing as it was not v tasty and a small portion! Overall just OK but at least it was open and lively and serving food after 9.

We often go to this pub for a quick meal. Prices are very good and the food is surprisingly ok for the price. The special curries ( manager specials) are great value and I have never had a bad one. That alongside good reasonable drink prices make it value for money.

Went in here once not bothered about going in again! Thought it was very dull and dismal to be honest. Tables were not cleaned straight away, carpets had food on the floor. Prefer the Loyds(Stag and Pheasant) . The atmosphere was alot better here. No atmosphere in the Widow Frost.

My wife and I were in Mansfield to watch our daughter perform at the Palace theatre. We tend to eat at Weatherspoons as you know what to expect: decent food, a good selection of drinks as fair prices. The Widow Frost was no exception, ideally located just across the road from the theatre, it's not the smartest Weatherspoons I've been in but more importantly the food was good and the staff very efficient, would definitely use again.

Stopped for a late lunch and found this Wetherspoons close to the centre of Mansfield, It was still very busy but with lots of tables there was plenty of room. Unfortunately they had run out of pasta which was disappointing so we decided on the Tandoori Wrap Meal Deal that included a drink. This didn't take long to arrive and service was good. and tasted great. One of the best wraps we have had at a Wetherspoons. Always a good menu selection and good value.

Last night our party of 18 visited the Widow Frost for our annual friends and family Christmas get together, although the venue was very busy by the time we arrived Laura, Jade & James could have not been more friendly and helpful throughout, we frequent the place on a regular basis but the service we received this time was second to non, too many people are quick to complain when things go wrong but far less put pen to paper when things have been perfect.Well Done Wetherspoons Widow Frost and especially Laura, Jade & James you were absolutely perfect and made our Party one of the best yet, needless to say the food and refreshments were perfect as always.Many thanks from the Reynolds party of 18Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you all

Just popped in for a coffee and bacon sandwich after I dropped the wife off for work . Overall I was pleasantly surprised the staff were "spot on" and I was served within 5 mins . The decor of the restaurant/pub although needs some investment . For example when you go to a wetherspoons in London its quality throughout get some money spent in these Northern towns please . The chairs and tables need a good sorting out for starters then look to the rest . You seem to have good staff - Support them

This is a great family meal out. The food is absolutely stunning and the meat such as beef, chicken etc are cooked perfectly. The staff there are so friendly and they even ask how the meal was, which i thought was great. If you are planning on going out for something to eat, i would definitely recommened it here.

We visit this pub for the mixed grill on steak club Tuesday whenever we are in town Yet again the food was hot and tasty the Thatchers Gold was cold and tasty and staff as always friendly and pleasant. The staff walk around checking tables and making sure everywhere is tidy and clean. They work very hard but always smile and we have noticed they make time to talk to the elderly customers and regulars We have been to much more expensive places and not enjoyed our meal or had surly staff who never smile. They have got it spot on here

Been fairly regular for the past 7 months, and never had an experience like today. My friend and I went in today around 4 o’clock, she ordered a salted caramel frappe no cream with coffee, the staff member « Amy » promptly forgot these requests, and had to be reminded as she was putting cream on (not sure if she did actually put coffee in), we both wrote it off until I was served, I am lactose intolerant, and asked for an oat latte with vanilla, at first she had the regular milk jug for steaming and I had to interject and then when pouring my coffee shot, she attempted to use a takeaway cup that had been face down in the water/coffee/milk mixture in the tray of the machine (as it had been taken apart for I assume cleaning 3 hours before closing), I then asked her not to use that cup as not only do I have allergy to milk it’s also really gross, the whole time they were being standoffish, and then when I got my drink there was no vanilla as she had forgot that too, although she apologized and corrected the error, it just felt really uncomfortable to ask for what I paid for to be made safely and properly, the rude demeanor took us both off guard, I have never had anything happen like this before but it’s just disappointing and below standards.

Booked a table for Sunday Lunch; when we arrived, we were advised it was half an hour wait! Not a great start, so ordered drinks from the bar & ordered two Beef Sunday Roasts on the QR Code. Food arrived & sizeable portions, but Beef was tough & fatty. There was no place to decline which elements you didn’t want on QR Code, so Red Cabbage & Mash wasted. Whatever happened to good old table service? No tip left as guess the QR Code doesn’t get out much!

Atmosphere not rated highly being in Tesco! But depending on who serves you it’s actually really nice. Service is everything no matter where you go and always appreciated.
