Food oily and not always hot. The drinks came *after* the food was delivered, which was a bit odd: short-staffed was the explanation, which I'll accept... But it still wasn't ideal. Nevertheless, all staff were very polite and helpful. The decor is bad early 1970s, and when we visited, there were a large number of screaming toddlers... But that's Spoons for you, I guess. My photo poses a question! I know it's late December 2021 and it is unseasonably warm. But why does Spoons cheese *literally* sweat. It's not terribly appetising, is all I'll say. And I'll try to be fair and point out that the Woodthorpe Top's choice of sweat-prone cheese is not of their doing, but is (no doubt) a mandate from as above I'll simply conclude with: drinks *before* food, not after; hot bacon, not cold; and no cheese sweat. Those factors would make me award a 5-star review. But as it is, it gets a 3-star review, because it's definitely acceptable, but absolutely not compelling.

Sadly standards have fallen. This pub was absolutely filthy. Early morning there was still the detritus of the previous evening present. Sticky tables, used shot glasses sat around. As the day progressed things got worse. Tables were not cleared. One of the male servers delivered food to guests and left them with other people's used glasses, cups and plates on the table. Totally unacceptable. Not only that routine cleaning wasn't done. It seems that now we don't have to worry about COVID we also do t have to worry about food poisoning either. This place needs to employ someone exclusively to clear tables and clean them The quality of the food and real ale were excellent. Alliyah was still extremely helpful, friendly and very efficient. She's a credit to the establishment as are most of the staff (other than the guy who leaves people to eat in other folk's filth).

I was quite disappointed with my recent visit to The Woodthorpe Top - JD Wetherspoon. I encountered multiple issues during my breakfast, including the presence of eggshells and even a piece of spall in my meal. This combination of problems left me with a less than satisfactory dining experience. Finding eggshells in my breakfast and discovering a piece of spall in the dish were certainly not what I had expected. These issues raised concerns about the overall cleanliness and food quality control in the establishment. It's essential for a restaurant to uphold high standards of hygiene and food quality, and my experience fell short of those expectations. I hope The Woodthorpe Top takes this feedback seriously and works on improving their food preparation and safety measures to ensure a more enjoyable and worry-free dining experience for all customers.
