    Best pub in Urmston especially if you like real ale, a nice atmosphere, friendly staff and plenty of space. Nice private outdoor area and ready parking too.

    Me and my boyfriend and 3 friends who were visiting from London tried to enter this spoons at approx 11pm and were greeted with a door man who told us that no groups were allowed. The doorman then proceeded to ask if any of our group were couples. Me and my boyfriend responded saying that we were a couple, which the doorman responded “ no be serious” and completely avoided our claim, he did not believe we were a couple and did not let any of us into the establishment even tho we did not pose any threat and we just wanted a drink. We view this as serious homophobia and advise any LGBT couple to avoid this pub. We hope that Wetherspoons replace this doorman and educate their personal on adequate guest management and not to subject any of their guests to homophobia. What a shame in this day and age that young couples and friends are subjected to this.

    Women managers are on power trips. Used to go all the time but can’t stand going in there now as you’ll get told off for anything, not a fun place to be anymore.

    Great selection of beers, which you don't get in many pubs these days, and at less than £2 a pint...5⭐. And the food is also 5⭐

    it's a Wetherspoons so u know what to expect. it is nice enough though. the staff are nice, service good, clean and tidy. I've only ever been in the morning for an American breakfast which is v nice. pancakes are a bit hit and miss, sometimes seem a bit rubbery. overall a nice experience.

    It's an okay place is you want a quick cheap drink. Staff weren't that friendly or helpful. Glass had lipstick stain on and place looked dirty. Won't be returning soon

  • 5/5 Anthony Ian M. 8 months ago on Google
    What a bargain english breakfast £3.11 including coffee (freedom). But then I don't just come for the breakfast, the staff are smashing too. One member even got my coffee because I use a walking stick.

    Tremendous atmosphere, you'll need to wait a bit in a queue, but definitely a great place for a beer. Very good prices. Can't rate the food though

  • 4/5 Michelle F. 2 years ago on Google
    Was good shots and drinks were ok Bar staff were polite and friendly

  • 2/5 Sandra W. 2 years ago on Google
    I had a jacket potato which should have come with tuna n coleslaw n butter pat. The jacket potato skin was as hard as a rock n you couldn't cut through it. Tuna was very dry. No butter pat or coleslaw n wasn't asked how my meal was. Which is very disappointing. The chain overall seem to have gone down a lot.

    Nice little stop off for breakfast. Two breakfasts and refillable hot drinks for £6 incredible value for money, combined with great service from friendly staff.

  • 1/5 Craig H. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolute Bobbins The staff look like they don't want to be there, the customers were queue jumping zombies and the doormen are a throwback of a by gone era. The whole atmosphere had that feel tbh, maybe its the the area. It could of bin down to drunken Friday night vibes so il try it on another night and re review, but won't be anytime soon. Also, it's tiny! The smallest spoons I've ever been to and I've been to alot. Beer selection was good, at least.

    Utter shambles ordered two drinks on the app, waited 15 minutes so went to the bar, was asked within a minute what I wanted, said the drinks I had ordered a quarter of an hour ago, at this point they checked the screen and served me my drinks ,if they were busy they might have had a point, there were two people at the bar and that was the busiest they had been, lazy staff who couldn't care less
