One of the poorest Wetherspoons I have been in and I have been in several. Even Wetherspoons usual good points seemed to be missing here on my visit. The service was appaling although this was hardly the bar staff’s fault – they worked like Trojans but management woefully underestimate the number required. Just the 4 Ales available on my visit with just 1 guest (great by an average pubs standard but poor for Wetherspoons). The tables were all unwiped and piling up with empty glasses and overflowing ashtrays. Even the pub itself was lacking any real focus and given the history of Wembley and ‘Spoons usual research into local history, there was very little to catch the eye apart from a superb giant aerial picture of the pre-‘66 Stadium. A small outside covered patio caters for the smokers and sun lovers but overall, not a place worth going out of the way for, especially when there is an event on at the stadium.

£3 per pint on Cup Final day!

The beer is still excellent and, for the location, a decent atmosphere

ARRRGH! What have they done?? They've taken out half of the handpumps, further reducing the beer range (Now 5 pumps - Abbot, Best, Directors, Pedigree and only 1 guest if you're lucky)and they've also taken the sinks out of the gent's toilet and replaced them with more urinals and then put the sinks on silly wall brackets far too high up.

went in on friday 9th feb 2007 the pub had just reopened after a paint job and new taps, the beer was noticably cooler, the staff where as friendly as ever even though they where still tidying up.

Went here in December when George Michael was playing at the arena and had a very good meal with great beer and it was cheap as expected, the roast was cheaper than the spoons near me about £2.00 less including the beer, BUT we ordered a pudding which was a mistake as we had to wait about 3 quarters of an hour for it, nice place though enjoyed it a lot.

Cheap and (mostly) cheerful.

Not bad for a whetherspoons. been here everytime when the snooker masters is on since 2004. The staff were very friendly. Maybe because the staff in Amsterdam (where i live) is one of the worst! Food and drinks not bad at all.
|
Pretty good high street Wetherspoon pub. Beer range varies and also the availability of some beers can be sketchy. Also (not at fault of the staff or managers - it's the company) they have too few staff on and it can take a long time to get served.

Its okay nothing special, a wetherspoons.

FYI Phone number is 020 8903 4923 and it is right next door to the Old Post Office in Wembley! Barn of a joint but usual quality of JJ Moons.
