Wetherspoons - Bedford

I went to this restaurant with my kids for dinner to have a meal together on the anniversary of their father's passing. I cannot express enough how delicious the food was. Despite being very busy, our food arrived hot and beautifully presented. We will definitely be returning. Thank you.

It's difficult to find anything to criticize about the value at Wetherspoons. We visited during a mid-hike break for lunch. The food was delicious, hot, and enjoyable. Although it was crowded at 2:30pm, there was a variety of customers sipping coffee, having lunch, and enjoying some drinks. This pub is clean and offers excellent service.

I returned to this restaurant after a while to see if there had been any improvement. Despite making several complaints about the catering staff practices to JD Witherspoon headquarters, I found that not much had changed. I have been in the trade for many years, and was disappointed to be served a mixed grill with an uncooked mushroom and tomato that was still cold in the middle. Most of the other items were only lukewarm at best, when we normally practice a minimum of 76 degrees on our food before it leaves the kitchen. While the restaurant may have been busy, that is no excuse for poor quality.

Very disappointing experience, went out for Boxing Day drinks/food with a group of girl friends. It was pretty empty, staff (particularly management) were very rude to us as costumers. My group are all newly 18 so excited to go out for drinks together for the first time, management definitely used this against us- confiscating drinks we had payed for, refusing to serve our table despite us showing valid ID. One person in our group unfortunately only had a photo of her ID because her license had been taken as she’d just passed her driving test the week prior, however she doesn’t drink anyway and just ordered a J2O with her food! Even after explaining this management treated us appallingly, threatening to pull up CCTV, telling my friend they would ask her to leave, not allowing any of us to order drinks (even those who had valid ID), refunding us whenever we ordered which will now take time to be processed (I still haven’t had that money back) and rushing us out at 9pm with no manners. We then left and went to a much more friendly over 18s bar and were served and ID checked with no issues and treated like actual adults. Staff definitely wouldn’t have spoken to us or behaved like that if we were an older group of people, please learn to treat younger customers with some respect- we are adults too.

So we ordered drinks 2 woo woo cocktails and a beer getting down the cocktails we noticed black particles in the ice knowing we had been drinking this decided to show a member of staff who said he had no idea what it was then he walked away thought he was going to get another 1 for us no he came bk and said what are you waiting for which i replied can I speak to the manager who also said he had o idea what it was and done nothing about it
