| This place is an utter shambles. Lousy service and terrible food. The selection of beers is a plus, but that's Wetherspoons policy anyway. Avoid. There are some good pubs in the area. AshingdonMan - 25 Apr 2011 20:57 |
| If you love waiting over 10 minutes to get served at the bar this is definitely the place for you. Bewstan - 30 Dec 2010 17:14 |
| I'm not anti Weatherspoons, there's a time and a place for them, so long as you know you're in a sausage machine. This one was okay. sssmiles - 7 Aug 2010 22:39 |
| I was in here to-day with ex-colleagues as it was quite handy for them to reach. I am afraid my views have not changed much since my last visit nearly a year ago. The bar service was appalling with only one member of staff serving - bear in mind this was lunch time. No evidence of a manager let alone a shift manager. The worst scenario was when the sole member of staff had to prepare 6 coffees and there were at least 6 people waiting and the wait was over 10 minutes! Whilst this was going on another staff member was enjoying his meal break in full view of the bar! The guest beer availability was better than last time with 4 beers on initially but the 'Bishop's Finger' ran out and no 'Abbott' was available. In their favour the food service was exceptionally quick. The toilets are quite a climb up 3 flights of quite steep stairs but on reaching them there was no soap in the dispensers and one of the toilet doors had at some time been kicked off its hinges and had not been repaired properly. I am aware I said previously that I wouldn't go back but this time I will most definitely NOT return. wyndham - 9 Jun 2010 21:19 |
| I went to this place for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I have been to many Spoons throughout Kent and was impressed. The atmosphere was good, beer was nice and staff friendly. The pub was excessively busy for a weekend, and there seemed to only be 3 doorman. There was some guy drunk at the front door and the door staff dealt with him in a friendly and polite was getting the point accross. We will be back. Barry and friends BigBaz2 - 19 Feb 2010 13:47 |
