"I am a regular at this pub because of its great prices for drinks and food. I come here often, usually several times a week. My family and I eat here at least once a week. However, there is a big issue with the staff. There are many young employees who need to improve their service skills, especially in terms of knowing who to serve next. It is frustrating to see customers who have been waiting for a long time being overlooked while others are served before them. This "who's next?" question seems to be a common problem among all of the serving staff, as if it is a requirement of the job to ask it every time. This recurring issue happens every night, hour after hour. If the bar staff cannot be bothered to pay attention to who is next and consistently pass the responsibility onto the customers waiting to be served, it leads to problems, as I have seen multiple times. It is chaotic. I have witnessed customers arguing about who was next, often falsely accusing each other of cutting in line. Sometimes, only one barman is left to serve 8 or 10 customers while others go on break, which is unacceptable. Thankfully, some of the problematic female bar staff have left, and it seems that there are now younger male employees with a better attitude. Hopefully, things will improve."

Staff were beyond rude tonight, a completely hostile environment and not somewhere you would want to stay for long, we ended up leaving early.

Everything you would expect from a pub chain, no complaints at all. The building is very nice. The staff is good and the tables are well spaced.

I visited this restaurant on Wednesday, which happened to be market day. It was fairly crowded at 10:30 am. Our breakfast arrived about 15 minutes after we ordered and we were very happy with both the quality and quantity of the food. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly.

A very smart looking Spoons set in rural Shropshire. The location isn't very accessible using public transport from Birmingham, so we drove. If you do decide to visit athis one using public transport from Birmingham then as you may have to travel to Shrewsbury or Stoke then on from there.We a vegetarian lasagna with side salad, breaded vegetable burger with chips and a side order if peas. For drinks orange juice and unlimited coffee all for around £12. I did tip due to the friendliness of the female server, Katie

Used to love going here because I live in market Drayton so it’s quick and easy yet the past few time the staff have been horrendous (especially the manger). Me and my partner were having a meal and his friends walked in and sat with us half way through our meal )there were 5 of us on a booth). I noticed the staff whispering behind the bar next thing the manger walks over and tells us to move when we’re were eating our food because we weren’t complying with the rules. This was when you were allowed to meet 6 people from another household. I ordered some drinks on the app and I explains that and she didn’t seem bothered at all so I asked can I have a refund and I’ll leave and she just goes “o...

I absolutely hate writing negative reviews, I don't think I've ever rated 1 star before. But this Wetherspoons is so hit and miss. I've been here about 6 times in August, some times are okay, other times it's the worst experience I've ever had. Staff are rude and seriously don't want to be there, your meals will get served 40 minutes apart, meaning that you won't get to eat at the same time (with no apology or explanation as to why it's so late), you may then find that items from your meal are missing. Upon asking a member of staff if you could please have the item that is missing (that's if they don't ignore you), they will rudely run off and shove it to you. They will lie about running out...

"Beautifull hotel, I guess one can call it trendy , but I just don 't understand how they can justify the price £130/night and that most of the time will go to £160 as they run out of entry level ones. So I guess the answer is there because people pay for it! But let 's just make some relevant comparisons Birmingham Grand literally in the heart of the city, brand new, 5* hotel, with all recently decorated rooms to the highest standard is £135 15 for breakfast. Needless to say rooms are air conditioned, fully equipped and genuinelly very posh. Hotel has lifts, has porters and the service is top notch. The Lion is barelly 4* just for trendiness alone, but the actual quality of furnishing is closer to 3*, has no lift and you will be lugging your bags up and down mutiple flights of stairs (and I mean multiple like 8 going up and down) trought narrow corridors to mediocre room (nothing wrong with it just mediocre) which isn 't even air conditioned. Sorry, I just don 't get it. That said restaurant is good fully fine dining if you are into it. Althought in my oppinion it doesn 't fit into the rest of the hotel. So it is ~3.5* hotel which is very youghtfull and trendy and then you get 5* fine dining with very tiny portions for the dinner (which is not criticism of restaurant, it is very good on it 's own). In conclussion I just don 't get what niche this hotel is filling, who stays there and why. The price for the rooms should be £75 95 tops. Shreesbury is not exactly prime tourists destination either (at least shouldn 't). But it seems it is working out for them, I just would not recommend it, I would not stay in it again and it is definatelly not worth the price. Neither in isolation, nor in comparison."
