    Half years ago was this pub much better. The taste of food was much better then now. Steak what I ordered must be medium rare and it was not cooked at all. American cheese burger was very poor. They bring me cheaper option of steak without onion rings and mushroom and then when I complaint ot they bring onion rings like from another plate..!

    This is my new favourite wetherspoons. The building was created by the Temperance Movement as an alcohol free billiards hall in c1907. It's a beautiful building and lovely space to have a bite or drink and very cheap too! When I visited I had the all day breakfast deal. Two eggs, two sausages, two bacon, beans and chips. The deal included an alcoholic drink for £5.99! It was well worth the money

    Absolutely stunning building from outside, average and crowded inside. Overally a nice place to have meal in with standard Witherspoons quality. Staff is quick and friendly. Would gladly go here again

    I don't usually review wetherspoons, but this one was great. 5.99 for an all day brunch with an alcoholic drink, and they'd actually flame grilled the bacon. Only complaint is no Pizza, I'd just got off a bike ride and I was craving it. Bar that, was perfect. Staff were friendly, the place was beautiful, friendly atmosphere, will be coming again.

    Popped in to have a quick look inside this beautiful building and found that they had a brilliant array of nice beers on tap including some Belgium and local one's including my favourite chocolate stout and at £1.50 a pint you can't go wrong. Staff are really friendly and attentive.

    Paulicarus says he remembers me playing snooker here many years ago when this was a snooker hall but he is not old enough. A unique building for a Spoons. Great selection of real ale. Took a bitter from Great Newsome brewery. Very good...cheap..and 50p off voucher£1.76 for the pint. It is what it is...typical crowd enjoying a lively Sunday afternoon.

    Excellent service. I’ve been here many times and never got disappointed. Food is good and staff always friendly. I had ordered something that they ran out at the moment and someone came in offering me extras to compensate.

  • 5/5 Ged H. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this spoons it's really turned into my local pub now. I like the eggs Benedict in the morning. And I occasionlly return in the afternoon for a gin and tonic. Some people will always moan about spoons but at the end of the day you get what you pay for. Super cheap both the food and alcohol. You wont find pints cheaper nor a double gin and tonic for £4.35 anywhere else. The building itself is big and open planned with plenty of seating.

    Food was bad, rubber chicken between abit if bread. Great for drinks nice atmosphere, old man's pub, few fruit machines dotted about and something thats NEW a big TV in time for the WC.

  • 5/5 Caroline S. 10 months ago on Google
    Had dinner here and when I saw the prices I wasn't expecting too much, but I was very impressed, I got fish chips peas with curry sause and a pint of coke for around £10 and was struggling to finish it coz it was so big. it was all freshly cooked and piping hot very good quality defo be returning. The bar staff were very friendly and made sure we was happy with the service and food.

    To be fair, I went on a quiet afternoon. The food was great cooking, presentation and service were all brilliant, a very enjoyable (and affordable!) meal. What's not to like?

  • 4/5 A S. 11 months ago on Google
    If you're prepared for the Spoons expirence, it's fine. Cheap and cheerful. My curry was pretty tasty and a decent portion, too. Beer is much cheaper than the competition. The app allows table service. Nice enough surroundings, and the staff were polite and efficient.

    Lovely spoons with a good history - it was once a pool hall. The carpet wasn’t sticky and staff were nice. Easily the best spoons I’ve been to in Manchester! The building is cool and I like the pool table lights still In place.

  • 5/5 Steve Flaxvert C. 11 months ago on Google
    Very busy but still got the drinks and food delivered rapidly at 8pm Friday. Go for the all day brunch with a soft drink, you will understand why it you are on a budget.

  • 2/5 Matthew H. 3 months ago on Google New
    The drink that came with my son's meal was six months out-of-date. Bar staff didn't seem arsed. Says it all really. Food was to be expected.

  • 5/5 Karen S. 4 months ago on Google

  • 4/5 Be blunt But f. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to eat if you've very little money but want to treat the family! Still dont like the politics of the owner though

  • 5/5 Neil T. 1 year ago on Google
    I went in for a pint of bitter and paid 2.10 I think. Staff have a genuine and real vibe about them and for the money you can't beat it. Very clean inside, especially the loos, and if you are looking for a cheap place to hang out with someone and have a few beers without worrying that you have to impress them then you can't go wrong... Maybe not ideal for a first date, but, who knows what you might get up to after a few cheap pints 😉

  • 1/5 Adam S. 1 year ago on Google
    Waiters were really rude. They kept staring at us while we were drinking. We weren't even loud. Do better...

  • 1/5 Wayne S. 1 year ago on Google
    Waitress dropped BBQ sauce on my son in laws lap, went all over his trousers, all over the table, she never appologiesed, didnt wipe the spillage up and didnt replace the sauce. Not good.

  • 5/5 Will B. 1 year ago on Google
    A must visit when in Chorley. This is a historic building where George Best played snooker as a teenager. Terrific range of real ales at very reasonable prices. Highly recommended

  • 3/5 R. Mark C. 1 year ago on Google
    Reasonable spacious Wetherspoons, albeit its open plan means it is noisy. Good selection of ales at low prices because it was a beer festival. Staff very good.

  • 3/5 Craig N. 1 year ago on Google
    Ok as Spoons go tables were dirty and staff seemed to be stood doing nothing behind bar talking to each other I ordered my usual fish and chips and it came out tepid maybe it was just a bad day for them

  • 5/5 Karan S. 1 year ago on Google
    What an amazing building, loving restored to a high standard. We went for a couple of drinks and sat beside a family and their young son, playing cards. Busy atmosphere.

  • 1/5 Anastasios K. 2 years ago on Google
    You go to Wetherspoons because it's the cheapest. If you can, don't support Tim Martin and his horrible business practices. The staff here all work hard and are great and friendly, though. Tim Martin (the Wetherspoons chain owner) effectively fired all his staff over lockdown rather than pay them a little furlough money! 😡

  • 4/5 Nigel L. 2 years ago on Google
    This building is a wonderful art deco ex snooker hall converted by wether spoons into a well established pub. It has plenty of seating & on night of visit the moorhouses blonde witch was on fine form. If you have not been it's well worth seeking out!

  • 4/5 Thomas F. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a family meet up in here on a busy Saturday afternoon. No problems getting served and a good selection of draught beers at Wetherspoon's prices on offer. Food available too, although I did not sample. Lost one star as gent's a bit mingsville.

  • 4/5 Brian R. 1 year ago on Google
    Fabulous interior. As a child I passed this place thousands of times and always wanted to see inside. Now that I can I am not disappointed.

  • 4/5 Lee B. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff were friendly and the building exterior and interior are lovely. My friend hurt her leg on the chair because it wasn't fixed down properly, but besides that value was great as expected for a wetherspoons.

  • 4/5 Sara P. 1 year ago on Google
    Standard wetherspoons, all on 1 level, so not loads of stairs to the toilets! Food was delicious, hot and tasty and all my party enjoyed their food. Visited here with family and would visit again.

  • 5/5 Tudor B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great location, as the pub is situated in a old pool table/snooker club. The service is usually good and sometimes even great. Good selection of drinks and food at very reasonable prices. Good atmosphere, with mostly polite and respectful customers. Not at all typical to a rough wetherspoons location where the evening usually ends in a fight.
