Customer Review Summary

Reviewers point most to fast table ordering and low prices, with smaller breakfasts and unlimited coffee singled out. One calls the burgers special, and staff are described as friendly. Service lapses recur: a drinks order placed online and forgotten with no apology, a broken beer glass, and a long wait for fried chicken and pizza. One diner carried their own drinks upstairs.

    “Running a business is not only about making a profit; it’s also about making sure your guests have a good experience and want to come back. Last time I came here for fried chicken and pizza, I had to wait almost an hour. This time, I came for a LaFFe beer 🍺, but unfortunately, the glass provided was broken. If your company is struggling to afford proper beer glasses, I’m genuinely happy to donate a few! 😄 Otherwise, please try to provide a better service and pay more attention to these small details.”

    “It's a very modern spoons, so clearly lacking some of the atmosphere of the older more historic buildings but helpful staff, low prices and fast food. Layout is convenient,plenty of seats, table ordering is just so fast and ruthlessly efficient, it's hard to criticise when smaller breakfasts are £3/£4 and unlimited coffee is a couple of quid especially in 2026. Used this spot as a place to meet an old friend and catch up and chat and for that it's perfect, in fact so good, easy and painless I'm going to rearrange another meet up soon. Thanks Spoons.”

    “Decent vegan options for a small town like this. Atmosphere was pretty mild but staff were quite friendly. Kitchen making horrible noises so I advise not to get a booth near there if you’re sensitive. …”
