"Monday lunchtime, and it was handy so my friend and I went there. Staff were lovely but table had not been wiped down. Food came. My burger was hard as rock and no flavour. Whisky sauce cold and congealed. Chips and onion rings were good, freshly cooked and hot. Disabled toilet was awful. Everyone was using it rather than go upstairs, which I can't being disabled. It was filthy and no water from tap. If it wasn't for the friendly, helpful staff it wouldn't have as many stars."

Took one look at the menu and headed for the door. It looked like an inviting watering-hole from a distance but turned out to be Wetherspoons. See further comments to the restaurant.

Came in for a family meal. We ordered a curry, 5 bean chilli and steak and kidney pie along with drinks. For us it was great value and really friendly staff. Nice and quiet for a Sunday evening. View menu

No different from any other spoons. Cheap drinks. Very extensive food menu. Staff seem a bit sullen but not anymore than any other Spoons. Table app ordering makes things easy. Not much more to say.

Flat lifeless beer, I have never been served a more poor pint of Abbot, I tried two both the same, looked good when served then spatter a couple of mouth full just went dead. My son tried a Hawkshead and it went the same way.

One of the most basic meals that we have received from the Wetherspoons brand. The staff did their best but you could tell that there was a shortage of serving staff and the food whilst edible was one of the most basic meals that we have ever received in a Wetherspoons. More of a boozers bar than a restaurant bar! View menu

What an absolute ripoff. Went with a friend for lunch, paid £16.40 for a small fish fillet, a spoonful of mushy peas and a handful of lukewarm chips also a 6oz burger with 1 slice of gherkin and a splash of sauce and even less chips, about 9 or ten…. Normally I’m a fan of Wetherspoons but this must be the worst place I have ever eaten…. If you fancy a ‘spoons avoid this one..

So we arrived, and ordered our drinks and food through the app. We was sat upstairs near the kitchen and the amount of childish behaviour and shouting from the kitchen was very unacceptable. Myself and my partner ordered from the burger menu, burnt burgers and very dry, also whilst eating a table close by ordered drinks, we witnessed staff bringing them up and putting them in the table without any interaction whatsoever. Not very professional at all.

"Myself and my partner where just outside of portpatrick yesterday and wondered about somewhere to have lunch, it was about 12.30pm on a scorching hot Bank holiday Sunday. We hadn’t actually planned to go there to start with but thought why not. I saw on Facebook Connors Restaurant had just uploaded a Facebook post about stopping there for a choice of 2 lovely menus and a cheeky gin, sounded perfect! The post had went up about 15 mins before we arrived, so I assumed they must be looking to take some tables. I walked down and there where 2 tables taken outside, and 1 table inside. I asked if I could get a table for 2 outside if possible and I was told no they had been reserved and I thought okay but before I could even open my mouth again she said all tables inside where also reserved that they where fully booked. There was 1 table inside, other wise it was pretty empty. Ok no problem, we found somewhere else so no big deal, after about 2 hours spent having food and wondering around we went back to the car (parked just up from Connors restaurant) and I noticed again there was only the 1 table outside, and no one at the others. I’m maybe wrong but I felt like this was odd, the inside didn’t look like it was “fully booked” either. It actually looked a little dead compared to everywhere else. This has also happened to my friends a couple of times too they’ve went in and the place has been stone dead but got turned away because of the excuse of being fully booked. Just felt like it was not quite right. Sorry I never usually write reviews but felt like I had to get my point across on this one. We would love to dine here and hopefully will in the future."
