As good as a wetherspoons gets.. steak was quiet hard and not cooked to like. Usual good food/drinks combo.

Food was easy to order from the app. My steak was cooked perfectly and the prices were reasonable. Just wish they had a more extensive menu as only 1 steak was available. But it was cooked exactly how I asked for it on the app. Delicious!

Had a few drinks here. The place is in the middle of Bournemouth and is a hive of activity. There were many seats to sit outside as the pub was quite full indoors. There was a lot of activity on the streets so it was interesting to watch. The beer is cold, and the service was fast. It's not a place to visit for a conversation as the seating was quite close together, and we were interrupted a lot by others. However, it's a great place for people to watch the strange activity of Bournemouth nightlife.

Beginning of August we ate here with some close friends right after I got married. Staff were amazing as well as the atmosphere and the food. Thank you for being a part of our magical day x

Pleasant atmosphere. Food as expected for a weatherspoons.
What made the difference was the staff. Polite, helpful and friendly especially Dan (a lovely smiling Canadian who oozed sunshine )
Dan went above and beyond to help me sort my order out .
Thank you 😊

I had traditional English breakfast there. Hash browns left bitter after taste. Anyway it's a budget friendly option, service is excellent, staff is friendly and smiley, the food got quickly on the table. Overall is not a bad experience.

Large venue. Same as most weatherspoons, good value and polite staff. Food arrives quickly even when busy. I think portions could be a little more generous hence 4 stars.
