Service was a little slow but we were all catching up and in no rush. We had booked the table for 9 but it had only been set for 7 - staff were good at solving the issue promptly. The roast beef was delicious, cooked to perfection and I particularly loved the pickled cabbage. Only disappointment was that the plate was cold and so parts of the roast had instantly gone cold before even reaching the table. The sticky toffee pudding was to die for - absolute heaven. Nine happy diners at the end of the meal! Would definitely recommend - dog and child friendly.

Let me start by saying this: I don't walk into a Wetherspoons expecting fine dining or 5-star…read moreservice. I understand it's budget food and budget service -- but even with that in mind, what I experienced yesterday was utterly appalling and has compelled me to write this review out of sheer disbelief and disgust. We entered and had to sit at one of the only clean tables in the place. Every other table was covered in dirty plates, overflowing glasses, and piles of rubbish. This wasn't during a busy rush -- the place was nearly empty, with staff standing around behind the bar clearly able to see the state of things and doing nothing about it. I ordered a drink on the app and, despite very obviously looking under 25 (I'm 24 but regularly get mistaken for a teenager), I wasn't ID'd. The same thing happened again when I ordered a second alcoholic drink with my food -- different server, still no ID check. So clearly, the 'Challenge 25' policy isn't something they actually follow -- until it becomes convenient for them. Later, I ordered two cocktails via the app. A staff member finally came over and asked for ID. I explained I didn't have it, but that I'd already been served alcohol twice during this visit. She refused to hand over the drinks -- which is fair, that's on me. But refusing to refund me? That is nothing short of daylight robbery. Hiding behind a "no refund on app orders" policy to justify keeping money for a product you won't provide is not only bad practice -- it's disgraceful. When I asked to speak to a manager, things somehow got worse. The person who came over said "I'm not the manager, but I'm the closest you will get" was shockingly rude, confrontational, and downright unpleasant. Aggressive tone, absolutely no professionalism, and frankly, they didn't even look like they'd had a wash that day. If this is the person in charge of setting an example for the rest of the staff, it's no wonder the place is in such a state. Basic customer service was completely absent. You'd think that being polite, approachable, and clean would be minimum expectations for public-facing roles, but apparently not here. I left feeling angry, ripped off, and genuinely disgusted by how little care or respect was shown. I never thought I'd say this, but this experience has lowered the bar for Wetherspoons even further. Avoid this location if you have any shred of self-respect -- or at least until management is overhauled and staff are taught how to treat paying customers.

Having been here for a meal before, I had been quite impressed with the carvery, which offered a good value meal with a choice of meats and vegetables. Its position in Festival Park made it a good place to eat I was visiting the nearby cinema or Waterworld. On my last visit, I brought a friend, which was unfortunate, given what was to come. We walked into a restaurant full of happy diners chomping away. The carvery was all laid out and looking appetizing. We decided to go for the carvery and were told that due to staff shortage, the carvery was closed. I offered to carve the meat myself and was told I wasn't allowed to do so. Then, when we said we would order from the main menu, we were told there would be no food from there either. It was 1.15pm. On the way out, we were passed by diners on the way in. We watched them get seated and then served from the carvery. Hmm. Not sure what it all means. Except for a one star review from me.

I went Sunday with my lady and visiting friends. We were told it was a 30 min wait which was fine as there was seating outside to while away the minutes. We didn't end up having to wait that long though which was a nice surprise. We were seated in a booth close to the carvery and everything smelled wonderful, we ordered some drinks but had to ask again 10 minutes later but I will let them off as it was busy. The meal itself was lovely, would have been nice to see more of a variety of veg (mainly mash, cauliflower and carrots) some peas, sweetcorn or similar to color the plate would have been great. My major complaint was the crackling which I think I chipped a tooth on. It was so hard it was dangerous! I pointed it out to the waitress but it was laughed of a little. I would hope that was just a one off though Overall a good value experience with just a few niggles, just don't go hoping for anything unique as food wise I have had better for a similar price. Very nice location though.
