I have never left a Google review of anything before but I just wanted to let everyone know that you should definitely NOT order a State Dog if you're going on a first date or a business meeting or something because this is a BEAST. I had this last night and it is quite possibly the most logistically difficult meal I have ever had the experience of eating in any Wetherspoons EVER. "This looks amazing" I thought, and then I realised I hadn't the foggiest as to how exactly I would consume it. Well, it turns out you can pick it up in the convenient paper it is placed in, but the Monterey Jack cheese will spill out of the edges, the crispy onion will tumble all over the table, bacon will spill into your dreams, gherkins will fly from your hands. My boyfriend found this the most entertaining thing to watch, and as a result I would definitely recommend this meal for its entertainment value alone. It does taste good too as an added bonus, though. Also, the onion rings were perfect and service was great, but really, this thing should be renamed "the State Dog challenge"...

Not where I would usually choose to eat, but we were in a rush and this was the most convenient place. I have never been anywhere so sticky and filthy in my life! We had to take the cleaning spray and cloth and clean the table ourselves as noone working there seemed to be bothered. Food came quickly which was great and my steak was rare just like I asked. But there were no peas, mushrooms, onion rings, pepper corn sauce or tomato like advertised. We asked where these were and the guy said he would find out....he never came back! Staff were dropping and smashing plates and glasses all over the place which they seemed to think was hilarious, even though children were running riot through the debris. I am far from a snob, and I know people use Wetherspoons for their cheap drinks so they can get smashed before going clubbing, but after leaving here I felt like I needed a shower and a lie down in a quiet room. I won't make the mistake of going in there again

Where ever we go, we head for a wetherspoons. Very disappointed with this one. Food came out fast but was stone cold and the waitress wasn't very pleasant either when told, they bought out a fresh eggs benedict (or so I thought), it was just the old one microwaved. The waitress sniggered and gave us a dirty look when we proved her wrong about how the pancakes were supposed to have bacon. The barmen bought my drink to the table as I ordered through the app and slammed it down without a word and just grunted at us when we said the hot drink machine wasn't working. Dirty all over, an absolute dive hole! Will NOT be returning! Awful wetherspoons and rude staff.

For a pub the beer is good, for food well. We had ordered fish and chips with peas and a Tennesse burger. When it arrived both meals where stone cold and the peas with the fish chips where solid. Took the food back and asked for a freshly cooked hot meal about 15-20 minutes later the food came back slightly hotter then the last ones the only problem was the fish and chips where not much better and the fish tasted rubbery the chips didn't taste nice and the peas where still not fully cooked the burger was okay. Couldn't be bothered to complain again just not planning to eat at Benjamin Satchwells again. The beer is okay.

The Wetherspoon in Leamington is a beautiful sight that also poses a fine pun to purchase ales and even soft drinks. The atmosphere was great as there was a real homey feel to the whole establishment. Also service was great due to how fast the table service was, and QR code menus are also helpful My only eh is the food, which for the prices really isn’t that good honestly, but it’s okay cause it’s primarily for the drinks, which also were great. All in all though, it was a great experience nonetheless and a pretty decent price. I’d recommend
