  “Myself and a friend ordered pizza, I had margarita, and my friend had BBQ chicken. By far the worst wetherspoons pizza I've ever had. You couldn't even cut it, it was that tough, and that was using a steak knife. The staff weren't exactly the friendliest or helpful. I certainly won't be returning to this establishment.”

  “Nice little balcony area. Toilets are downstairs which is great. No walking what feels like a hundred stairs to go to the loo.”

  “Had breakfast this morning with my father. Served on a cold plate, bacon was more like wafer ham, the sausage wasn't hot through, there was a very young team on duty. It was as though they didn't know how to cook the items properly and most importantly to use a probe! I have a serious oesophagal condition, and upon leaving I ended up being sick from the uncooked sausage. Even the flat white coffees we had from the machine were cold. I should have made an official complaint but didn't wish to make a scene in front of many customers and more importantly my father whose food was luke warm as well, thankfully he was okay...Normally I have been a regular customer and haven't had the same problem as I did this morning but this has left a very sour taste in the mouth. On the plus side, the two waitresses were very polite. Lesson of the Day : Hot Food Served On A Hot Plate, the golden rule of Cooking....”

  “This was a lovely atmospheric pub, really bustling, staff although it was really busy were very friendly, and was served with no problems. Place was clean, as we're the toilets. Food was really tasty and lots of it at a very reasonable price, it also came with not much waiting. Lovely place.”

  “The breakfast was cold and inedible. I reported that one of the coffee machines was overflowing water onto the floor only to be met with “I’m busy I’ll get to it when I can”. When I pointed out that I was trying to be helpful the young lady in question simply walked away without comment. First time and last time here.”

  “All these wetherspoons pubs need is a damn good clean! The Abergavenny wetherspoons is no exception. On arrival I did notice the stair lift, lovely touch I thought. We went to our table 17 and it was, even at 10.30am, very sticky and stuff was still left.... This would take one extra staff member to keep on top of.... It's a major issue.... Other than that the Coliseum wetherspoons was friendly, staff were helpful and the food was "very wetherspoons" cheap and cheerful so noone can really complain unless it's cold of course! I found the people of Abergavenny extremely friendly and the town has a lovely relaxed feel with some lovely little independent shops. Wetherspoons is bang in the centre and was once the cinema.”

  “A solid Wetherspoons. Service was quick and efficient despite it being absolutely rammed. Tables clean and staff were very proactive in doing rounds to remove dishes and glasses that you were finished with. Generally seemed to have a lot more staff than most Wetherspoons pubs - maybe they employed more people for the busy Christmas period. Food was quickly delivered to the table and what exactly what you'd expect: no thrills and good enough for the money - especially given how cheap a decent pint of cider is here.”

  “Wetherspoons right in the heart of Abergavenny. Typical menu with good local atmosphere and interesting building history. This one used to be a old cinema 😊”

  “The high ceilings in this place are what bring me here as they make it feel light and airy which isn't typical of a 'spoons. Not sure you could get a lower priced breakfast - the staff were on hand, polite and helpful and we were served immediately.”

  “Really liked this Spoons. It's very airey & light & well appointed. It was an old cinema before being converted. I could have happily stayed here all day as it was so relaxing. We had the breakfast muffin deal with a cuppa which was lovely then headed to Pembroke Castle for the day.”
