Great place to stop for a drink and some hot food. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was lovely. You made our trip to Brighton better.

Had fish and chips which was delivered quickly despite the pub being heaving but fish looked and tasted very tired and dry. Chips were nice but portion of mushy pease very mean (about a dessert spoon full). Cookie Crunch dessert was ok but did not have any Belgian chocolate sauce as advertised in the menu. No milk available for mug of tea afterwards and bar was far too busy to queue and ask. Coffee/tea machine was in a very dark corner and area was poorly cleaned and untidy. Single Hand drier in gents toilets was not working. Toilets otherwise we’re quite clean. Not the best Weatherspoons experience we’ve had and we use them in other towns quite regularly.

Really nice Weatherspoons. Nice ambiance, food and drink is real value for money. I had chicken and bacon salad, with fried halloumi. It was lovely.

Food was disgusting and staff service was crap

Decent scampi, chips and peas. Order came with garden, not mushy peas, apart from that, brilliant.Only got 4 stars, as not really my kind of place.Food was hot, and proper scampi, not mushed up fishy bits.Drinks and 2 scampi and chips for just over £21, can't really grumble.Parking: No parking nearby.Wheelchair accessibility: Bouncers fetched out a ramp for the 4 steps, bit steep but manageable.

Visited post and telegraph for lunch, was very busy and we went up stairs as downstairs tables were either occupied or piled high with uncollected crockery. Tried to order on app but it wouldn't work so went and ordered at bar. Food arrived fairly quickly and was ok, naan bread with curry was a tad burnt on bottom and rice could of been warmer. The place needs a good clean and more staff clearing tables no tables were cleared away the whole time we were there which put people off. Toilets were clean though

Don’t bother!!! Called in for a quick cheap family meal as we were hitting ‘danger zone’ (if you know, you know!) which would have been great if the whole family’s meals were put through the till! Instead, I got the pleasure of watching my family eat as my meal was ‘forgotten to be put through the till’ clearly four meals at once was too big of an ask! As it took so long to find out why mine was missing my family had finished their meals by the time I was told this wasn’t out through but I can just go reorder at the bar (with no apology!) ??

Very busy which was to be expected. Some items from the menu were unavailable. Two of our three meals were great, however the BBQ chicken pizza was incredible. Just like someone had poured BBQ sauce all over it and chucked on a load of cheese chunks! Really odd.The staff were really great. They must have been stressed as there were people and small children everywhere but they were smiling and giving great service to everyone.

Cold food, missing items, dreadful service and unapologetic staff. It's understandable that mistakes happen but when they do you expect staff to at least own it and make more of an effort, not just drop the missing items on your table 15 mins later without a word. And you expect that food to be at least warm not stone cold. So much went wrong on this visit that I most definitely would not eat here again.
Normal spoons. It's only good for a cheap beer like others I've been to better. No atmosphere, boring, but I have given it 4 stars instead of the normal 3 because of the chicken wings I had. They were probably the best wings I've ever had. Even better than wing stop.

Usually busy, tables are not cleared quickly so creates a backlog of people unable to sit down . Nowhere to have a smoke under cover. Food and drinks usual spoons stuff. Ren used to busk outside, cool to see where that happened.

Decent food and drink for a Spoons. A little on the busy and rowdy side but that's to be expected
