We travel quite extensively and can honestly say that this is one of the finest “Spoons” in the country. I ordered from my table as the place was quite busy. I pressed the “pay now” button and within a matter of a minute or so my coffee mug arrived. Main meal followed quickly and was VERY acceptable. Same again with dessert, payment processed and POW, food arrives. I have yet to have a bad experience here, unlike Staines on Thames where the worst eating experience in the world is available on a daily basis. See you again soon.

Went here as staying at Travelodge next door. Nice big spacious place, great prices for food and drink. Was in twice and staff were friendly, helpful and polite. Breakfast came very fast and hit the spot, the fried eggs still had a yolk.

I had a very good breakfast and unlimited hot drinks for £8.72 visiting this Wetherspoons (my 388th).No problems with any of the food. Service was very friendly and the place was very clean. Not too busy around 10am on a Saturday morning.Would like to have tried the ales, but my visit was too early for a beer.WILL return.

I was staying at the Travelodge and is the best place to get a good hearty breakfast at a good price. Very good start to the day.

Whilst visiting the area I called here for a couple of drinks. I was quickly served by a cheerful young lady. Just one table free on a Saturday afternoon with couples and families, what a lovely atmosphere. The staff were very efficient in delivering food and drinks, clearing and cleaning tables. Judging by the packed room, these customers were clearly not put off by a few negative reviews. I will be back!

My friends and I visited here on our way back to Manchester after hiking in Peak District.The place is spacious and was quite busy. We managed to find a table which was quite dim in lighting and made it difficult to read the menu where the prints are small. We ordered via their QR code instead.I've been to Wetherspoon before so I know what to expect. I ordered Mixed Grill with additional fried egg at £12. The meal includes a hot drink and unlimited refills. The mug for my tea came to the table instantly after I placed the order. Then, my food came fairly quick piping hot which was perfect!Loved the mixed grill - all the meat weren't dry or chewy. Portion size was decent. Value for price.Hot drinks were limited to coffee and tea. It did say hot chocolate when ordering, as well as being advertised on the hot drink machine but it wasn't in the selection, so I just helped myself with several rounds of Tetley tea.Highly recommend this place for dinner. Safe and cosy place to be in and not too quiet.

Nice place with plenty of seating. Can get a little noisy at peak times but service is good. Food is good .Place is tucked away at the back of the main crossroad. There are also other shops on the same little area

Get a grip and do something about the poor quality cold food you continue to provide It maybe cheap but it’s RUBBISH Raise the prices and provide decent meals Just do something better !!

Visited here when staying at the travel lodge next door, lovely pub and as usual good priced drinks. However breakfast was terrible, beans on toast with poached egg stone cold sent it back and it came out again beans slightly warm, poached egg cold and solid and toast un toasted. Cheap but still not worth the money. Wish we'd gone into Marks and Spencers cafe over the road.

Don’t waste your time here…..ordered breakfast for 7 people. Arrived 45 mins later, stone cold, complained and told 5 mins….an hour later replacements still not with us but left us with the cold congealed breakfasts on our table….Staff in kitchen on their mobiles as opposed to cooking food. Manager simply a wet lettuce who just said sorry and gave a refund once he had come out of hiding…..tried patronising me by saying I get you are agitated….no idea how to run a pub and restaurant……shocking service from this pub
Came here for breakfast 2 days in a row due to staying at the travelodge next door. First day my egg was stone cold and sausage was tepid. I made allowances due to it being busy. Came on the second day and again egg and bacon stone cold. Complained this time and asked for fresh egg and bacon and was then left for over 10 minutes whilst my partner ate breakfast. Basically not enough staff on and we observed food being left on hot plate for over 10 minutes.

We recently stayed at The Travelodge in Glossop and found the Smithy Fold a great place to enjoy a fine selection of drinks . I've had a perception of Witherspoons to be a rough and ready place but this establishment blows those perception out of the water .Such a modern and friendly environment was enjoyed which made for a great brief stay in Glossop. We had breakfast on the Sunday morning which again blows a misconception out if the water . It was delicious and filling. We would certainly recommend a visit to Smithy Fold

Mainly rude, terrible staff, no customer service skills!! Cleaning could be much better and quality of food poorer than any Wetherspoons I've ever been to!! Kids running riot spoiling the atmosphere.
