  “I accidentally ordered the wrong breakfast and I was told that I would have to pay for a replacement meal and I was still charged for the mistake! I don’t feel that is understandable and the breakfast could have been used for someone else.”

  “The table configuration needs sorting, too close together and then you get a selfish man who's chair is so so far from his table, he's practically having to stretch to his limit to reach it, and won't move. We did manage to find a more suitable table but even then had to move it to use one side. That aside, we ordered via the app and the drinks arrived very quickly followed a short time later by the food. Food was usual Spoons standard and was hot, no complaints. Ladies toilet was quite nice and clean.”

  “I came here on a Sunday morning for the large breakfast and for the price it was adequate... Then popped in again as staying locally in the evening and just so busy with a good atmosphere with a pub quiz to follow. They could have definitely required another staff member behind the bar. Overall an enjoyable evening.”

  “One of 3 Weteherspoons in Bournemouth and definitely not the best one. Food and the drinks are good as in every Spoons, staff also do their job well and the tables are even more cleaner than in 2 other pubs but the atmosphere is not good in there. If you look at the fact that the pub is in students area and you never see students there it says everything. The other 2 Wetherspoons are much more friendly… even with dirtier tables.”

  “It was ok, but not great even for a Wetherspoon's. Sticky carpets and a bit dingy. Worst part was disgusting tea/coffee area that hadn't been checked for ages. A total mess and both machines were missing something. One machine had no milk and the other had a full coffee grinds bin. Meaning the queue was massive and we could see 3 staff in the side bar area on their phones, the only people visibly working was a bar person and the one delivering Food & drinks. Took ages to get someone to attend the machines and queued for 10 mins plus to get a hot drink. Food and the staff that were working seemed friendly.”

  “Another 'Spoons in a modern retail outlet. Whilst it's a modern 'Spoons, I liked the way its finished inside, especially the parts with books on shelves. Staff were helpful and pleasant, one waited just to tell me my food was on my table. Very kind. Like all spoons the walls are marked with prints and photos marking local people and places.”

  “Came in for a breakfast, I ordered a big breakfast, consisting of 2 sausages 2 bacon, 2 eggs, beans, hashbrown, mushrooms.l, toast, and coffee. It looked pleasing to the eye and well presented. However, the whole meal was stone cold. The young girl who was working behind the bar noticed I pushed the plate away and came to cheek up on me to see if everything was okay and offered a fresh breakfast...... The replacement breakfast arrived in good time, it was nice and hot and again the presentation was nice. However the plate was cold, and the sausages tasted heavily of oil, the hashbrowns had an off taste to them, but that may be because of the oil they are cooked in, the mushroom was not grilled instead it looks like it took a swim in the deep fat fryer. Weatherspoons have never really been big for good food. It's more of a watering whole for people to drink. The atmosphere is that of your normal pub, there are some lovely people here and the staff are super friendly, it's nice and clean and children friendly. So if you're looking for a quick drink, this is the place to come, but as for the food, it needs a lot of work before I eat here again.”

  “Unfortunately when we visited, hoping for a great Wetherspoon's experience we found a few issues. Firstly had various card issues when paying for our drinks. None of the tables were cleaned with menus actually stuck to the surface on a couple. Not great with Covid once again rearing its ugly head Because we had paid for parking before seeing the cleanliness of the pub we decided to brave a pizza as hopefully that would be ok only to be told that they had run out. As there were pretty much only two options on the menu either pizza or burger we decided to give up and went elsewhere for a meal. If you just want a cheap drink then this place is fine but otherwise I would unfortunately say to give it a wide berth.”
