What Chris M doesn't like about The Gary Cooper:
Its a spoons it's what you would expect the lass that served us behind the bar was great though. Food was good except the burger patties were gross they tasted like a burnt cheap frozen burger yet my daughters burger looked great but I had two disgusting ones. The three stars is because everything else was good. View all feedback. What User likes about The Gary Cooper:
The house can't blame. Submitted, ordered via the app, served immediately, good food, eaten and left. Let's be honest, reasonable price, pleasant and value for money. Stagg super, because if you need them, otherwise you can rest to enjoy meal. View all feedback.

Very rude staff but will say the server was pleasant, food was awful, atmosphere was almost like a funeral and one large girl serving was very rude

While some patrons have enjoyed pleasant meals at Gary Cooper, others have faced shocking service shortcomings that tarnish the restaurant's reputation. Reports of unclean tables, misplaced orders, and rude staff interactions have raised serious concerns. In stark contrast, many guests praised the quick service and friendly atmosphere, especially highlighting the attentive actions of the staff during emergencies. The modern ambiance and good selection of food and drinks, particularly for pre-theater dining, seem to uplift the experience for some. However, consistency in service quality remains a significant issue that management needs to address to retain loyal customers.

Go out for a place of dinner, fish and chips with muddy peas and a cedar for under £10. The food was delicious and quick to reach.

Great pub from the old Queensway site now with a new Asda and near The Grove Theater. Really modern feeling for the pub with large open rooms large windows. Yes...

Really bad food- cold chips and peas, grissely fat Sirloin and mushroom cooked on dirty grill by the taste. The old staff and they couldn't be less interested!

First. This is a Wetherspoon so you can expect a uniform menu and price range for any other Wetherspoon-Eigenen Pub. The atmosphere is hip and funny, but...

Obspoons invaded Dunstable, but the Gary Cooper was not the unsettling success that was predicted. How to expect Obspoons...
