WETHERSPOONS Review: Eating BREAKFAST, LUNCH and DINNER in ONE DAY at MULTIPLE WETHERSPOONS!

[@simondemontfort2577]

Hi , I’m a chef and avid visitor of cafes, pubs, restaurants. I Always listen and read food/restaurant reviews and generally they are more about how clever the reviewer thinks they are with pretentious language showing off. How refreshing to watch this : honest, unpretentious, fair and straight to the point. I’ve taken your recommendation a couple of times now ( Wetherspoon and Devine cafe) , spot on . Thanks! Keep up the good work

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Simon. Yes, I don't pretend to be an expert as that would be untrue. Give Devine a go for sure, Wetherspoons is a bit hit and miss - need to find the right one. If you need anymore recommendations, you can email me and I'd be happy to help.

[@andymoody8363]

I was just about to say the same, but you beat me to it. I love the unpretentious appraoch to eating in pubs and restaurants and the honesty and, it must be said, fairness of the reviews. Where else will you see a review of the most expensive fish and chips in the country (Tom Kerridge) next to a Weatherspoons all-dayer! Great work, I love it.

[@hmu05366]

The language used is just to make it interesting to read and humorous

[@mrskallywag666]

Also, a long time chef here and I totally agree! Gary is a breath of fresh air, and his reviews are top notch.

[@rebeccajames858]

Gary is a legend 😊

[@rocket69218]

Best thing about Wetherspoons is I never feel ripped off. The food is always decent and good value. ... which is all I want from pub food usually. I recently went to the one in Abingdon (as I was passing through on the way to Oxford) and had a really nice experience. Food was above average for spoons, the staff were nice and the atmosphere relaxed. We stayed for a few hours drinking and eating.

[@GaryEats]

That's a fair way of putting it.

[@cypeman8037]

Good points.

[@ForceFreeTrainergirl06]

I've eaten at Wetherspoons, usually not out of choice but necessity in different areas, and I've always felt ripped off. It's all frozen, pre packaged, deep fat fried and microwaved. It's been a case of get in, eat and get out asap.

[@phann860]

@@ForceFreeTrainergirl06 No way, Wspoons are very good about not hassling people to get out. In fact they seem to encourage you to stay, especially the free refill of tea etc.

[@frankcarter6427]

In December 2018, I visited my daughter in Glasgow where she was a student -on a perfect winter's bright, sunny freezing cold day we went to the xmas market, walked through the beautiful city and visited the incredible cemetery , as the sun went down and the temp plummeted we went back into town tired and hungry. My daughter took me to 'spoons by the train station, never been in one before and had a snobbish prejudice against them - I had bangers, mash n gravy and peas, a pot of tea and a delicious pint of bitter for less than a 10er and still remember sitting there full and astonished at the value.

[@GaryEats]

The value is always excellent at Spoons, Frank. Thanks for watching mate.

[@francisraffle2948]

After watching wetherspoons on TV I wouldn't give j one cos all the meals apart from breakfast are microwave meals and I've had bad experience in wetherspoons I've had to send meals back like steak pudding chips and peas cos the steak pudding was frozen in the middle and the barmaid asked me why i wanted mymoney back cos the food was frozen I've had far better meals at a cafe and ghet see sll home cooked

[@flyer1658]

​@@francisraffle2948your right of course most of its microwaved. What would shock you is there are far more expensive pub chains and guess what they all do virtually the same. Most is microwaved! In a British pub chain you will rarely find fully qualified chefs but cooks who do the basics. Weatherspoons just happen to do it really well and successfully

[@michaelhawkins7389]

@@GaryEats Years ago weatherspoons use to cook food from fresh but , then people were complaining saying it was taking too long to cook, so they became known for their fast food ( most of it microwaved or put into a fryer. It was also their beer being cheaper then any other pub at one point. I would rather go to any where else that is of a higher standard , ( out of choice) but I do not think the food is horrible but I do think it could be better, but then again, if you are going to weatherspoons and you know what it is, then you won't be expecting the highest quility when it comes to food or beers

[@AllThisOverASliceOfGabagool]

​@@michaelhawkins7389exactly. People know what they're signing up for with Wetherspoons. You'd never go there on a romantic night out, but if you just want a meal without the burden of washing up and want to have food and a pint for cheaper than a takeaway, then why not? It's not glamorous but who cares? If people want fancy schmancy then go to The Fat Duck and be hungry after your 10 course pretentious 'experience'

[@berniecoles2337]

I’d never been to a Wetherspoons until I had to have my car serviced and noticed one nearby to the garage. Seeing as I had time to kill I decided to have one of their large breakfasts with free coffee refills. Got to say for the price I couldn’t fault it, it was tasty and plentiful.

You made a wise decision with the Stella. When a meal includes a drink, I always go for the best they have! Normally a Stella or Leffe. You can't really go wrong with a Spoons.... a solid meal at a great price. I also like that they save a lot of historic buildings that might otherwise be lost. It's not fancy, but it does the job.

[@captaincat1743]

I order the double cheeseburger most times I eat at Wetherspoons and the beef they use is unbelievably good, tastes so fresh and cooked to perfection. I don't know how that do it. They are certainly better than any other burger chain in our area for quality. I ordered this week and the double cheeseburger with chips was £6.95. Very very happy with it. It also reflects on the quality of the kitchen staff, that the food is prepared so well.

[@GaryEats]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@markleeming1786]

They have changed the "patte" from a 6oz to a 3 oz. During and just after covid I would get a burger with an extra patte at £1.35, chicken patte was same price. A double 6oz for about £6. Now I think its about £7 for a 3 oz burger plus almost £2 for an extra patte. I must admit I did love the "patte" but to buy a burger plus the needed 3 extra's, too much now. Not long ago we got a burger in Blackpool spoons, think it was £5.95. Last week we tried spoons at Fort William, Scotland, the burger was 5p short of a tenner ! £5.95 in England £9.95 in Scotland !

[@captaincat1743]

@@markleeming1786 The 6.95 Double Cheese that I order is also in a Scottish Spoons, in Hawick to be precise, and it is also the same price in Galashiels, so it's not a Scottish thing. It could be that they have off-peak prices on meals as I eat there on weekday afternoons usually.

[@markleeming1786]

@@captaincat1743 Hi ya, I just tried to look on line but it will not give food prices, maybe it was because its the Highlands, Stella is £4.41 but only £3.88 at my local spoons. Coors £4.09 against £3.08, Tennents £4.37 vs £3.38

[@captaincat1743]

@@markleeming1786 Ok, that makes sense that they are in the Highlands, supply will definitely be more expensive. I thought Wetherspoons had fixed prices and was more like a chain-style restaurant/bar but it seems from reading your comments that they run each Spoons as though it were a pub ie. getting local suppliers where possible. Which is a smart way to run the business.

[@mrchrismiller]

One of the best options in spoons are the pizzas. I think they are cooked in a pizza oven so you will only find them in their pubs that have one in the kitchen. Because of the way they are cooked they are one of the fresher things on the menu and I like the way you can easily add toppings to the standard options. Quality and price stacks up against the competitors at that end of the pizza market!

[@GaryEats]

May have to go for a pizza in future, Chris. Thank you for watching!

[@carolgriffiths1682]

Great you visited spoons. Their curries are great value - yep a proper Indian restaurant is often better but for a value meal - can’t be beaten. Also some of the buildings are amazing - restored so we can enjoy them - try some of the picture house conversions - or a fab church on the Isle of Wight👍

[@dom6140]

I have to agree with you there mate. Their Pizzas are probably the best thing on the menu 👍

[@Lawton008]

I can agree with this. I had a pizza in a Wetherspoons in York and it was simply amazing.

We tried their pizzas once, they were so thin that we could almost see the pattern of the plates through them.

[@colinmayes9446]

That was an excellent video, and your reviews of the food was very fair. Spoons isn't and doesn't pretend pretend to be fine dining but it allows a lot of people to enjoy a family meal out which is the important thing, well done Gary, and best wishes to you.

[@GaryEats]

Glad you enjoyed it Colin!

[@DarkCobra88]

For sure. I'm no regular at spoons and never will be as i just don't care to, but i respect their brand in that they offer a decent meal for a good price, not a gourmet meal or 5 star meal, they just offer a enjoyable meal for the price and come on, you get a drink with meals and unlimited refills on hot drinks, the value is just insane. I avoid alcohol outside social events and love the value in the hot drinks refill, can go mad on them for pocket change. Really like that. I think his score was on point from my experience there. Wont be throwing now 10/10 but 3.5-4/5 depending on what your having really as long as your looking for value.

[@DB-hl8sp]

‘But it allows a lot of people to enjoy a family meal out’ - fantastic point, it’s not always about the quality of the food etc (to a certain minimum level lol) but the opportunity to be (or, able to be) there in the first place! ❤

Newquay just isnt busy enough to support 2 Spoons outside of the Summer season which is a pity as the New one was lovely. How Walkabout survived I dont know. Its 2018 since I last went to Newquay so it could have closed by now anyway. St. Ives Wetherspoons was lovely as well.

[@davidoliver1169]

Hi Gary. Great video, as always. I agree that weatherspoons are fantastic for drinks and prices are tremendous vale (maybe less so in central London). As far as the food is concerned, whilst much of it is ready prepared, there is always the unknown element of who is actually in the kitchen, and I think that's key to the food. Thank you and enjoy the weekend.

[@GaryEats]

Absolutely David. You have a good weekend too mate, hope you'll be available to watch my upload later. Thanks!

[@send2gl]

That was quite fascinating, presentation at the Victoria Station Weatherspoons looked the best, wonder if their breakfast would have been better?

[@GaryEats]

Perhaps. It's very hit and miss in Wetherspoons!

[@David-l4m9y]

Nice video chap, yes I agree the breakfast looked Okish but the chicken burger and beef madras looked very nice & tasty . As a real ale drinker when I’m back in the Uk I do pop into the odd Weatherspoons they do a good range of cask ales for £2-3 pound a pint 👌👌Keep up the good work Gary...

[@GaryEats]

Glad you like it whenever you're back in the UK, David. Thanks for watching mate!

[@carolleenkelmann3829]

I've only just "discovered" you. Doing the obligatory binge watch and sticking the video information in my "travel tips", hoping one day I can get back to GB.

[@GaryEats]

I know as I’m replying to you lol, I really appreciate you watching and commenting thank you 👌

[@kevinbrown3482]

You can’t beat weatherspoons cheap and cheerful and the food isn’t bad for what you pay very good review Gary 👍

[@GaryEats]

I agree, I think it offers fantastic value Kevin

[@lhfloors]

Spoons is okay but it depends on what branch you’re in and who’s cooking at the time it is very hit and miss

[@GaryEats]

Completely agree. I haven't been before this video in a long time.

Or if they made it home the previous night/that morning. 😂😂

[@theelitoneenjoyer]

Hi Gary, Callum and Jemima here, hope you’re well - you are looking it! Jemima and I are big Wetherspoons fans and will often visit our local one for a few snacks. We like the starters, as you can get 3 of them for around £12.00! I like the chicken wings, and Jemima is partial to the halloumi fries, we would recommend them to you. We very much enjoyed this video upload from you and are looking forward to the next video upload and will watch it as soon as it comes out. We have also thumbsed up this upload. Take care Gary and speak soon. Callum & Jemima, Oxford

[@GaryEats]

Hello to Callum and Jemima. Glad you liked the upload and thank you for the nice compliment. You should have seen me on the way home, I didn't look all that great then. Haha, Thanks for watching!

[@JSC131]

To be fair i dont think you can knock Wetherspoons its very competitive and if you get a good one its basically top value all round great content as usual Gary.

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Jeff and completely agree with you.

[@iancrawley4009]

I have been a Wetherspoons user for many years in the main connected with travelling to football matches. The meals have always been keenly priced and served a purpose but in my humble opinion the quality and portion sizes have decreased but in today's climate that is perhaps no surprise. I've always thought you go to spoons for something to eat you don't go their for a meal if you get my meaning. The main reason most people go is related to the drink prices to be fair. Keep up the good work Sir

[@dazzrl84]

The thing with Spoons is you know what your getting, its not fancied up in any way, good value for money, and as you touched on, they are usually located in listed or important buildings in the community, which they certainly do know how to look after. Its somewhere between, Fast food to Home cooked food

[@GaryEats]

Can agree with you there.

[@MalcolmJames-sg3zg]

Never been in Wetherspoons before, this might be a video treat to see how good they are,. Also Gary , i hope your cameraman has lunch as well 👍👍

[@GaryEats]

Cameraman skipped out on Wetherspoons today. He went into WH Smith instead, lol. Thank you for watching!

[@MalcolmJames-sg3zg]

HA HA

[@missmerrily4830]

Wow, three meals at Wetherspoons and you're still standing! It can't be as bad as I thought then! I hated the look of lunch as it was all so dry! I find Wetherspoons very variable, even leaving out London prices. I've been in ones which were smelly and sticky from spilled beer and had edible food, and better located, cleaner ones where the food was all but inedible. I wouldn't, as a rule, choose a Wetherspoons curry, but that looked the nicest of the day's meals. This was all really brave of you, and glad you lived to tell the tale!

[@GaryEats]

I had to be rolled to my train by the cameraman. Completely agree with you, not all heroes wear capes. Lol.

[@missmerrily4830]

🤣🤣🤣👍

[@drxym]

I've eaten breakfast and other meals in Wetherspoons and the best thing I can say is they are cheap but consistently mediocre. Travel the length and breadth of the country and you'll be served the same thing - suspiciously quickly prepared & assembled food. While I'll eat there, if I see a cafe or something else nearby when I'm looking to eat I'd vastly prefer the other place assuming it was reasonably priced.

[@GaryEats]

Pretty much nailed it.

[@focus2607]

Hi Gary, What a great video. I liked that you tried 3 different Wetherspons in the one day. We also liked your marks and agreed with your scores. I see the disappointment with the egg at breakfast ( I like the hard egg!! but my wife like you likes the eggs soft) and my wife does like the eggs benedict which she said, has always been good. Lunch looked ok too. Ive been to the Victoria one a few times as I used to commute to Victoria, and to be fair the restaurant is always busy, and the food is decent. Must say we thought your curry looked really good on the plate, with the naan bread and popadoms!! Cheers for the reviews again. Really looking forward to your next upload. Have a great rest of the weekend. All the best David & Angela :)

[@GaryEats]

Thank you David and Angela. Much appreciated, I had a really fun day at Wetherspoons despite what the comments say. Cheers my friend, have a good weekend.

[@neil997]

Arise Sir Tim Martin! Well earned!

[@GaryEats]

[@richardjennings3049]

So glad you went for breakfast there Gary. Hi Gary - One of my favourites and you must try the Italian lunches there. If you want another great breakfast in London, the Regency cafe in Westminster is great food and atmosphere. Enjoy!

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Richard. I’ve been there mate, please check out my popular cafe review.

[@Mat-eq8mk]

Great vid. I adore spoons. It's cheap, consistent and the service is quick and direct to your table. The quality is surprisingly good these days too - albeit in-keeping with the low price point.

[@GaryEats]

Thanks mate!

[@pab777]

(Breakfast)I do like it. Put a dollop of brown sauce and it will lift it. Complete value. Love the gee oil around the curry. A total thumbs up for me👍

[@GaryEats]

I did have brown sauce on it! I do love brown sauce :)

[@markw5779]

On the whole,I was impressed,I have only eaten a few times at spoons,twice I had the double stack beef burger,which was very filling,and another time I tried a pizza,which I must say really impressed me,it tasted really fresh and was cooked to perfection.however back to your breakfast,I really think those eggs should of been scrapped and replaced with two runny yolkers,we eat with our eyes and those eggs were disappointing,really enjoyed this video,well done for eating all that food in one day.👍

[@GaryEats]

Glad you enjoyed it! It was a tough one, waddled back to the train.

[@dc63productions88]

I stumbled on your videos by accident and now I can’t stop watching, keep it up! Also spoons is great for a cheap meal, it’s not exactly the highest quality but it’s pretty decent for what it is. Breakfast is always the worst thing about spoons the lunch and dinner menu is decent

[@GaryEats]

That means a lot thank you

[@alexshort8055]

What an enjoyable video. The pricing at the Leicester Square ‘Spoons is, I think, fair. It’s the West End, after all. Wetherspoon are about undercutting the competition - well that’s an element, at least - and one can only imagine the cost if drinking or dining elsewhere in the locality. The Victoria Station Wetherspoon is pure nostalgia. I’m a Kent lad, so I spent many a moment in there, killing time whilst awaiting my delayed train, ha-ha. There’s also a Wetherspoon just outside the station, where I’d frequent. Keep up the good work.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Alex!

[@scottmcowat]

All you need now is 10 pints and you’ll have the full Wetherspoon experience 😂

[@GaryEats]

LOL. Would there be comedic value in watching me fall down the elevator post curry?

[@MichaelCampin]

I'd get rid of the hash browns and have grilled tomatoes or more mushrooms. But fried bread would be alot better. I agree with you the sausages are always on spec.

[@GaryEats]

No problem Michael. Thanks for watching!

[@oildrag]

Ban hash browns from the English breakfast full stop ! Yes fried bread is the only way to go 👍🇬🇧

[@leondenny4319]

Love the channel, as others have said you made a great clear assessment and say it how it is. I also like to try different food establishments every now and again. Wetherspoons are a great for a relatively cheap eat although they can be hit and miss. Like with the breakfasts another time you will get perfect runny eggs another time you'll get dry ones. Although some Wetherspoons are just 'better' than others with no real reason why. When food is good it's a very, very satisfying meal. :)

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Leon. Very kind of you.

[@phil7794]

Having a limited budget as a pensioner whenever my wife and i want to celebrate and do something special its off to Wetherspoons for a meal. Funnily enough my wife's fave meal is the Beef Madras which she raves about (we recently went two days running for that ! ) I had the scampi and chips, pint of beer, £11.61. Great value, staff so motivated and friendly, great atmosphere, prompt service and my rating ? 10/10 of course !

[@GaryEats]

I agree with you, Phil. I think Wetherspoons offers excellent value.

[@paulbowman1762]

That burger looked dry Gary and the rest i could say about it ! Im in South Tottenham but i come from BOLTON ! Lived here over 25 years and the food prices are so erratic in and around London ! Be good mate 👍👊🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@VeryVeryBigJ]

When I was 21 I became a Wetherspoons shift manager right out of uni. I was thrown into the kitchen at times to learn the ropes and boy it was an experience for someone with no cooking experience. I have to say that the majority of food is frozen and therefore poorer for that, I suppose there was no other choice. It takes away from the flavour and is ultimately disappointing but useful if you need a quick bite before the theatre etc

[@paulmorgan6269]

You were 21 and suddenly made a manager. ? Your cooking experience was ??

Never been disappointed with a Witherspoons curry and especially the Ale is amazing value. My French family love a visit there.

[@GaryEats]

Sounds great!

[@kiljaeden7663]

All their curries are frozen microwave meals.

[@stevenbrown8857]

In my humble opinion, Weatherspoons are good for the price. They, despite offering the same, are variable. Some I will eat at, some I wont. Great review 😊

[@GaryEats]

Very true Steve. Thanks mate!

[@sonyavincent7450]

Good review. The curry meal looked excellent. The eggs on the breakfast plate were butchered, they shouldn't have left the kitchen. Very good value though.

[@GaryEats]

Totally agree.

[@nigelanscombe8658]

I think you were unlucky with those eggs, the times I’ve had eggs (in various ‘Spoons around Kent) they’ve been fine.

[@GaryEats]

Typical!

[@flyer1658]

Spoons is what it is, value for money. Decent food not stunning, good drinks and at a fair price. Staff tend to be friendly. What I do know is I eat at other pub chains like beefeater, harvester, green king to name a few and have ahd alot worse and more expensive meals

[@OuterSpaceOwl]

I think the rubbery eggs set the standard for the brekkie, sadly but the whole platter looked just about palatable. The hastily disposed of mushroom looked the best bit to me. 😅 Was relieved to see you had seasoning and sauces at hand for the lunchtime burger and chips! 👍🏼 The curry appeared to be fine. I definitely think you should carry on ordering pilau rice instead of just boring old boiled rice. You'll enjoy a proper restaurant's version even more than this one. 🍚 Overall, I liked the idea of you having your day's three meals with one chain of eateries. Glad the 'Spoons served you well. Another enjoyable review. Hope your cameraman got fed along the way though! 😁

[@GaryEats]

Lol, I had to get rid of that mushroom really quickly before it ruined the rest of the meal (haha). Thank you mate, cameraman was well fed (albeit not from Wetherspoons the cheeky git).

Pre-covid I could go in and have lunch with a soft drink for £5-6, but that has almost doubled now. I find Wetherspoons pretty hit or miss. You can go to one and it will not be great, but order the same meal from another and it will be good and three months later that can reversed, probably down to the staff and how diligent they are with the microwaves and fryers etc. I never minded getting a bad one pre-covid at £5-6 a hit, but at £9-11 it gets a bit more disappointing and I am thinknig twice now.

[@GaryEats]

Yep.

[@maryconlan1384]

Breakfast eggs a total crime.. dreadful

[@GaryEats]

[@shaunfisher9292]

To be fair you can tell the person who brings your breakfast out that your eggs are overdone. I've done this myself and there quite happy to take it back and put right the problem, plus they normally ask if your happy with your meal, and don't take it to heart if you complain. So if your not happy tell them.

With the spoons u have to take into account the price. For the money u pay it's hard to beat. My only complaint is sometimes the food can be cold. Overall though I'd recommend it as a place to go for decent enough cheap food.
