Reviews of The Moon Under Water - JD Wetherspoon
P.
Busy but lively bar in centre of Manchester on Deansgate. Dinner time and was busy with diners but plenty of room to sit down and enjoy a meal. Service was quick a d staff polite. Really good value £9.95 for a chicken tikka masala and pint of John Smith.
C. B.
Very packed ,decor needs more TLC .
Drinks affordable,good for students for experience of Manchester bar life .
Restrooms should be maintained at regular intervals.
Arrangements not really there and the cleanliness is more of a question for me .
I believe they can do more to address these points mentioned for a more improved place .
Imagine we had to squeeze pass for access .
A. C.
Popped in for a quick bite to eat.
Great staff service, good value for money on food and drink.
Plenty of space available on several floors. Worth a visit!
S. C.
It's a huge spoons, with tables across two floors so you can usually find a table. It can be very busy at peak times I imagine, but service was as expected (even when it was busy) and the staff are all polite and friendly. Typical spoons food, not complaints there. Nice pub, been a few times, would go again.
M. P.
Very busy on a Man Utd match day but clean and tidy and super service when ordering from app. A good Wetherspoons
S. D.
Gets quite busy if you are into that. Bit love the fact they have table service. I will definitely be back. It's much better than other places that don't have table service.
R. W.
Absolutely huge Wetherspoons. It must have been a cinema or theatre in years gone by. As usual good food and drink at very good prices. There are bars on both floors
Thanks to the team at the Moon under water. Manchester.
J. H.
Hot tasty food and good atmosphere, can't beat them at what they do.. table was messy when we arrived, but it was packed. Staff friendly and attentive. Can't really fault it.
D. C.
Reasonably priced food and drink. And the service to match. Don't expect miracles. But it is a lovely big old pub with loads of character. And some interesting folks to people watch.
E. J.
Like that you can order table service through the app , also you can feel comfortable going in there on your own. The food.and drinks.are a good standard and well priced. The staff are helpful and polite.
H. H.
Great place, good food and prices x
J. M.
Outstanding spoons, one of the best I've been in.
E. H.
My favourite spoons in manchester centre. Absolutely massive and large bars so you're never waiting that long. Not entirely sure when, but I'm sure on weekend nights the tables get moved for a dance floor.
d. d.
Very nice venue
Excellent food and service
H. F.
I enjoy the atmosphere of this specious and uniquely designed wetherspoons. The food is your bog standard wetherspoons food with the cheap drinks to accompany it. That being said perfect for a catch up, a drink or a dinner for two on a budget. All round well deserving of the 4 star review.
A. s.
had almost two successful breakups at the upstairs booth in the far corner 5 stars for convenience, minus half a star for my ex who claimed it was “not an appropriate place to be having this conversation” minus another half for the really expensive 3 starters deal. overall p good the bar ppl are chill
n.
Very nice wetherspoons. The interior is real nice and there's plenty of seating in different areas.
The staff were friendly and my food arrived very quickly.
R. S.
Pretty decent boozer. Tradesmen late for work and lawyers early for work have breakfast side by side. Clean, fast service and decent beer for the evening.
P. R.
Had 3 days in Manchester and this place was Ideal for feeding. However, mixed feelings about staff. Morning staff had extreme potty mouth. F-ing and blinding.
And some afternoon staff can lack knowledge of products. I was told to go to another bar because they didn't know what beers were available
a. h.
Good food and beer at the right price as usual in spoons, we went at tea time,but been sat night and. It's a great dancing disco at the back....
C. B.
Interesting pub, large premises with upstairs seating as well. Former cinema so nice feel to interior. Would definitely visit agaiy
C. A.
It’s your typical spoons but on a bigger scale, can be difficult to get served on busy nights. The one surprising thing was they had a DJ playing music the other Friday and here’s me thinking it was wethernotunes
C. K.
Very good 'spoons. Normally not a lover of the company, but tou just cannot argue with the prices!! Only loses a star because of niggles I have, but overall a very good place.
N. B.
Found almost by accident but so glad I did! What a beautiful building! Feels like a 5* dining experience with budget prices!
It is genuinely the most aesthetically pleasing weatherspoons I've ever seen.
J. R.
Excellent wetherspoons. Lots of room. Great location, bar staff were a little bit grumpy and on a go slow the day we visited.
e. k.
Quick visit for a beer or two. Very busy but good service. Will call in again for sure!
P. W.
Basic ubiquitous city centre Wetherspoons (but what did I expect?) with decor that needs updating - and it didn’t feel too clean. The restaurant has adopted Covid Security very well. Therefore table service only, but we were made to feel like we were intruding. The waitress was hurried and almost pressurised us to make a quick decision. Sadly the only vegetable available was peas - often a restaurant is willing to replace these with another veg, but not here, and I don’t eat peas. The food was served quickly and was adequate; nothing to complain about there. But the experience for a city centre Sunday lunch was not wonderful and I wouldn’t go back quickly.
a. c.
Only had drinks, can't complain about anything, staff were quick to serve and clear the tables.
T. C.
Love the interior of this place, reminds me of being on some old grand ship - but I'm in weatherspoons. Always know what to expect: plenty of punters, relaxed atmosphere, quick service and plenty of food/drink options. Great place to start the night cheaply.
J. H.
Went here twice, once for drinks and the next morning for breakfast. The waiter served our drinks didn't once speak or smile. The next morning the waiter couldn't be more helpful and nice. Decor is nice. It's a Wetherspoons, cheap and sometimes cheerful.
R. “.
Looking tired now, needs a redo with some better lighting cause the building itself is massive with great features. Other than that a normal Wetherspoon.
D.
Moon under water.
Wetherspoons, what can I say? - I can say a lot actually, thanks for asking.
One of the better venues, staff so a great job - foods always good. Lovely venue, toilets always clean... One of those places that's much bigger on the inside.
S. G.
Friendly atmosphere visited during the day after the Manchester half marathon but was still able to sit down
M. R.
Had to beyond the standard 10 minutes serve time, the garlic bread was slightly undercooked, the burger was slightly overcooked and the chips were slightly undercooked too. Tasted fine though. Amazing building.
C. K.
Good. Slight delay with food for a couple of members of the group but they were compensated. Otherwise, excellent value for money.
P. W.
Nice pub, good value drinks, nicely situated on Deansgate, close to all major shops.
N. H.
Friendly staff, very good food and excellent real ales
S. T.
Friendly staff. Clean and well priced
Only downfall is like all wetherspoons you have to climb Mount everest to get to the toilets 🚻 not good when your bursting. 🤣🤣 but look forward to returning. Highly recommended
D. M.
Nicely spacious and well laid out over 2 storeys. Usual Wetherspoons menu and drinks but you pay a premium in the City venues compared to a Town spoons. Would help if everything was plentifully stocked. Out of bottles of wine and had to go searching for sugar. OK though
T. A.
Nice pub friendly staff got served quick good choice of drinks and cheap
A. M.
Good pub, excellent food service. Its a Wetherspoons so you know to expect when you visit. We had the wraps with fries and salad and drink offer...can't go wrong...despite it being crazy busy it arrived promptly on hot plates...
k. c.
Very busy as Christmas markets were there. Plenty of room upstairs, only went in for a coffee after shopping. Staff pleasant, lovely coffee at a great price, can't beat it
S. H.
Had 2 meals here, evening meal & Breakfast and was very impressed with the standard of the food served. Bordering on excellent. Pleasantly surprised. Very good value for money on food and drinks.
O. F.
Decent spoons with lots of seating options. Breakfast was quick, cheap and good quality, great vegan options.
S. L.
Basically you pay for what you get. Six pound 15 pence for a burger, and soft drink. Cheese a little extra. How many other places would you get that?
T. F.
called in yesterday on way to footie -changed the carpet since last time i was in had scampi and chips for breakfast -had to wait till half 11 to order it cos its not on the breakfast menu - massive Wetherspoons must be one of the biggest and best -if you have trouble getting served go upstairs you will find it less busy
S. B.
Beautiful architecture,you feel the history.Inside is stunning.Staff were very accommodating and although it was busy,there was plenty of seating and you never waited long.Food is excellent.
R. L.
Always busy, always decent beer. Would have given it five stars except that I was under the impression that vaping was not allowed, yet the people on the table next to us thought it was ok to blow vapour in our direction.
A. F.
Ordered large breakfast just felt like it could have been cooked longer although it arrived at table in 2 mins. Upstairs was also closed
r. g.
Cool interior, rather chill wheterspoon to just hang out with your own group. Old atmosphere but chill to hang out for a beer.
J. H.
Amazing bar with amazing food. Fast as well to bring out the food even on a busy day
L. J.
It is cheap for a reason. Food must be ready on standby. You order then food comes straight away. A bit to quick.
C. R.
Visited for drinks, fast service friendly staff, great atmosphere, well worth a visit if you're in the area
R. L.
Really nice pub reasonably priced food and drinks
S. S.
Went in for lunch furley bizzy, seeing it was just after 13 00 hours had the chicken and the hot peri peri dip tables are cleaned, staff were good furley clean seeing it was afternoon.
b. t.
Nice, attractive place to eat/drink. It was quiet when we were here so very pleasant.
L. R.
Had a lovely meal and a couple of drinks. Staff were very helpful and pleasant.
G. W.
Food is ok the service was excellent and it's a nice venue. Best of all is the price, it's cheap !
A. N.
Really good, a lot of wetherspoons have gone down hill on food quality but not this one
J. W.
Katie upstairs went out of her way to get me tomato ketchup becuase there wasn't any and completely made my night. Thanks very much!
D. S.
Surprisingly better food than I was expecting... definitely recommend you try
I. A.
Best weatherspoons in the country and a disco on a Saturday night brilliant 👏
D. C.
Great value for money breakfast. Good portions quickly served
L. .. M.
decent prices decent beer nice chilled out atmosphere
T. P.
Claiming to be the largest pub in the country perhaps warns you that it's likely to be busy. But the bar layout and/or staff levels or training seem to mean that service at the bar is very slow. It may be better by app, but it depends if you want to get it for infrequent visits. I was disappointed by the dearth of ales on offer, possibly a consequence of the pandemic though and what they had served the purpose.
C. B.
Quick service, good food, pleasant staff and good price. Always eat here when in Manchester
G. W.
Not much not to like really. Cheap drinks, very clean and staff are great.
S. W.
Lovely old building. Spacious. Took star off for sticky menu cards
J.
A brilliant place for food and music after 8.30, always our goto Wetherspoons when in Manchester
D. L.
Aways been a brilliant place to visit. However it's been at least 18 month's since I last went on a late afternoon, early evening visit.
Pleasantly surprised the management on the ball, tables were cleared almost immediately. Staff of mixed age and very pleasant. A lot of students, however couldn't do enough for you. They had time for a little banter also. One young man, think his name was Harry, or Henry. was really pleasant, even when moving all the tables away to make room for the DJ later in the evening. Overall a excellent evening, will certainly be back.
B. M.
Good food and reasonable prices. Nice staff and good service.
E. R.
Great value for money as Wetherspoons always is. Just feels dark due to the decor and wish it could be brightened up a little.
S. K.
No surprises there.. as usual friendly good price and managed to sit out side to see the Deasgate life passing by...lol
J.
Great breakfast at a bargain price. Very helpful staff too.
A. W.
Nice friendly bar. Large eating and drinks area. Plenty of choice of foo and drinks.
P. S.
Great Wetherspoons with its own dance floor and Dj, we all got drunk and had a fab time for a fraction of the price in the surrounding area.
C. W.
One of my favourite bars in Manchester, have been coming here for years. Enjoyed a few glasses of wine last week with my cousin and will be back next week with my Mum while out shopping and looking round the Christmas markets.
G. T.
Was busy but a beautiful wetherspoons, with the stained glass windows and open upstairs, loved it as art deco is my favourite and this was bursting with character good thing about wetherspoons is they all have character, lots of famous peoples portraits from Manchester
L. S.
Tried the roasted veg pizza absolutely delicious, really didn't expect it to be so good Well done to their chef. Great pub,good atmosphere, great prices and you don't need to book !!!
e. e.
Nice cheap breakfast coffee was OK
As in life you get what you pay for
M. H.
Typical Wetherspoons price and quality
D. P.
Great place, good value for money on food and drink.
d. h.
Cheap food which was excellent . But dont sit at the front door you will get cigarette fumes over you and your food
A. W.
Good location, good food, clean premises & friendly staff.
P. H.
Nice service and very clean and tidy. Had lovely Fish, Chips and Peas with a Lager for under £10
Plenty of tables in upstairs balcony.
It's a Wetherspoons, what else do you need to know
O. L.
Wetherspoons are a very UK tradition, large sprawling pubs with a little bit of a casino vibe
K. A.
Great music Saturday night
T. P.
The cosy interior balcony is basically what makes it stand out from a standard Wetherspoon's. Otherwise same old 👌
p. y.
This place is bigger than you think with a large up stairs as well
J. a. j.
Called in on Saturday just for a quick pit stop and ended up staying in for about 3hrs. All the time we were there,we noticed there was a lady collecting the empty glasses and cleaning the tables . She never stopped working .We found out that her name was Maria not many people work as hard as she does she's a credit to your company (and the San Miguel was good to)
p. a.
A good watering hole on Deansgate. Large choice of grub for all tastes & excellent service. This place is vast so even at busy times tables are usually available.
Return visit on the 07/12/2017 food good & great service on a very busy lunchtime.
D.
There are steps into it,did not see a ramp so had to get out of my whechair & slowly get up the steps.The tables were clean & tidy.We ordered on the app & the food came quickly,was well cooked & tasted delicious.There was a disabled toilet on the same floor with key obtained at bar,other loos were upstairs.It was everything you expect from a Wetherspoons.
R. R.
Great breakfast options, amazing poached eggs, tasty food, plenty of seats, great atmosphere
The seats and carpets have a specific smell, not that clean
s. f.
This is a big friendly Wetherspoon's bar in Deansgate Manchester
I can well believe the claim that it is one of the biggest bars in England having been a cinema once.
The location is good, the staff friendly and the beer, wine & food typically decent, cheap Wetherspoons faire.
Free Wi Fi as in all Wetherspoons.
Brilliant pub so close to the centre, best place to start your night off.
L. m. d.
Very friendly staff here, but could do with a smile now and again, staff look like they don't want to be there. Very clean place.
C. X.
Curry and beer fine, very few cocktails on menu available disappointed my wife.
H. H.
Just a typical Wetherspoons - sort of helpful staff, sticky tables, good prices. Half the items were out of stock and the times it took for items to arrive wasn't great.
M. P.
Quiet but fun. Very big, there is a dance floor, places to eat, or just yo have a drink. And good prices. A friendly atmosphere
K. M.
Nice friendly pub. Not to expensive
J. B.
Lovely clean pub, great choice of beer and food.
A. C.
Fantastic food music lovely night out for my sisters Birthday x
M. V.
Great place and decent pub
j. J.
Decent venue, random staff, scruffy /mixed clientele. It's a wetherspoon but nicer building.
J.
Excellent!! So rare to get bar staff who know who is "next" to be served, not the person who says so, but the bar tender to look at you knowing you are next. Is this a training pub?
J. G.
both meals where well cooked and tasty, good value and good ambience. The staff where polite efficient and very professional.
J. W.
Standard weatherspoons pub, lots of seating across multiple levels inside and limited seating out the front. Good range of beers on draught at low prices for the city centre.
M. J.
Great offers on food and a great choice of drinks
S.
1st time I have ever seen a weatherspoon bar area empty. The place was busy and Every 1 was sat down enjoying the evening drinking eating and chatting without congregating in a standing group. Full marks to the staff for the organisation in these difficult times. All tables was covid safe with screens between them and well spaced out. Nice to feel safe while enjoying a night out. Great beers as well
K. L.
Standard weatherspoon pub food, but the price is a bit higher than others, good thing is they open at 07:00.
j. w.
We love this place, food is good value, place is large to accommodate many people for eating or drinking. Food is lovely especially fish & chips if you like it & chicken tikka masala too. They have toilets & disabled toilet downstairs too.
M. F. E.
Beautiful pub, good service and good food
A great place to hang out with friends
S. Q.
Good for a quick no thrills bite to eat and drink. more expensive than used to be. You do get what you pay for as meal was tepid, considering these are cooked via microwave I would expect hot food. No sign of anyone asking if it was OK and as no walking to bar was unable to get att of staff.
P. R.
And now a Disco !! Spoon's served its usual quality pint at the right price , hygiene, unlike some of the other Witherspoon's in Torquay & Devon , was good considering it was late Friday night . Table service was fast and efficient, and yes , they now have a Friday night disco 🎵🎸🎶 !! Times they are a changing 😁😁
A. J.
Brilliant place. One of the biggest spoons you will visit. Fantastic atmosphere. Friendly staff and patrons.
J. E.
I had a nice evening with cheap drinks and good company. Recommended for a good night after work.
S. B.
Cheap beer and cheap food always worth a visit
A. B.
Nice and easy it was rammed but it was a Saturday, ordered drinks on the app still and they made It to the table quickly enough
P. R.
Cheap, quick, good food. Standard weatherspoons👍
G. W.
Always feels like it should be slightly better than it is. I remember coming here in the late 90s and thinking it was awesome. Staff are doing a Stirling job but the door staff sometimes seem to be a bit on top. Especially during c19. Even so, we'll kept ales, but don't expect an ipa or a craft beer late on. Like the Waterhouse they seem to have an addiction to cleaning the lines early. Food is as it is and is usually served quickly. Crowd is usually football of a Saturday but Sundays and midweek are pretty calm. Overall half decent.
V. S.
Massive pub. Usual Wetherspoons cheap prices. Delivery of food was quick despite how busy it was. Place was kept tidy. Staff were friendly. I'd recommend.
K. 1.
Nice, busy with the boxing but enough staff to cope , fast service
P. k.
Clean, tidy, breakfast was OK, sausages looked like they were heated from previous day.
S. K.
Over 30 minutes waiting for breakfasts and then they arrived luke warm. I had to complain to the server to get an apology. Tables were crammed together and weren't cleaned regularly.
I. G.
Crowded, so best NOT to be in a hurry.
K. S.
Madness!
You will be lucky to find a seat. Get your elbows out at the bar.
M. C.
Good service, lively atmosphere. Great prices 👍
S. G.
One of the more 'classy' wetherspoons. A fairly relaxed atmosphere.
c. b.
Called in for a couple of Hazy Janes.just before eleven pm before we got the train home.
R. C.
Always clean, food is okay but prices have stared to become not cheap
J. C.
Extremely busy,the staff did well
A. P.
Impressive building usual Wetherspoons keenly priced food and drink
C. M.
Meet friends there. Please keep the coffee machines full as we like a drink of coffee before leaving.
N. F.
Big premises. Service not the quickest as 1 person on the table had to wait a lot longer. More disappointed with the breakfast as half the breakfast was practically stone cold and the rest like warm.
C. B.
A typical Wetherspoon's. A worrying lack of COVID restrictions without much compliance of plan B.
L. C.
We visited yesterday. It was busy but we only had a short wait. The staff were all so lovely nothing was too much trouble. They are taking sanitising very seriously but in a subtle manner
M. T.
Poor service and it wasn't busy, beer was ok and cheap, great for a Monday afternoon.
M. J.
Good prices, food was pretty good
S. G.
We always call in ..Loss of one star bread was hard // no milk in coffee machine ...
Men's toilets...well shall we say unclean putting it mildly didn't use them ...totally unacceptable !!!! No excuse
K. P.
Excellent place stsff are good, food good Wetherspoons has excelled itself with its half grilled chicken very very nice
M. L.
Lovely pub.
L. C.
Nice pub, drinks are cheap
M. R.
Brilliant Weatherspoons, one of the best I have been in. Very friendly atmosphere
G. R.
Classic Wetherspoons in a fantastic venue. Worth a visit for the usual cheap pints or pub grub in a comfier setting. Makes for a pleasant experience, but not necessarily a special one.
N. C.
Really busy in the evening but once we found a table our food came very quickly.
S. W.
We had an amazing time and everyone was so friendly.
J. M.
Called here for drinks early evening. The app didn't work properly at the time so we asked if we could use cash and we could and someone would come take our order. 20mins later still no one came, so we left. It wasn't even busy.
P. B.
Good choice of drinks. Good service. Good price.
a. b.
Great atmosphere excellent that they have a dj
J. W.
Good pub decent prices in the centre of manchester
S. F.
Good staff. Wot a lovely place to sit and look at historical facts about the city
D. H.
Decent food and very cheap drinks.
A. D.
After a busy day of shopping in Manchester a meal and drink went down a treat
T. C.
Love it! It's cheap, cheesy and has a distinct funk but if you're after a late night giggle and don't take yourself too seriously then you'll love it too.
E. P.
Yummy food! Great beer! No complaints at all!
R. B.
Had a full english breakfast which was lovely and coffee, perfect after a night out.
A. R.
It's a good place if you like alcohol at reasonable prices,a lively with some old and new style music. Plus it as a dance floor ..hey..which is rear to find this days in a public house. Haha
L. B.
Standard crowded wetherspoons. Had a disco which is not available in alot.
J. W.
Food not as good as usual. Ordered small all day breakfast was charged & received large one. Food should have been hotter not just warm. Must have been left too long on the side before being served.
A. P.
Lovely relaxed pub with decent food
P. S.
Nice place good range of draught beers. Reasonably priced
A. L.
Helped sort us out after a brilliant night out in Manchester! Breakfast, bottomless coffee and iced fresh orange. Only down side (as in any whethers) the toilets are miles away
R. W.
Sadly not enough staff on and beer prices to expensive for a Spoons.
But I suppose that is Manchester prices.
C. D.
Always a great spot for a first drink when out in town. Good atmosphere, good prices and the only place to get my estrella galicia gluten-free lager.
C. h.
I would of given this place 5 stars had the toilets been further away. I am sure I entered Salford by using the last urinal. A great place.
J. S.
love this place good service low price
J. M.
Busy pub in Manchester, use the app and food & drinks will be delivered to your table!
R. M.
Nice clean pub. Fine selection of food and drinks at good prices. Staff were very good and helpful and provided good service.
A. J.
Cheap beer nice food
J. C.
Loved it great value for money and great place
S. H.
yes we had a great afternoon thankyou
K. L.
In contrast to the Wetherspoons at piccadilly this one was brighter but still offered only two real ales due to the current supply issues. So yes I give an extra star because it felt brighter and more welcoming. However the quality of the Wainwright could have been better and perhaps pushed it to a five.
Constructive criticism only, Wetherspoons are a big credit to the real ale scene. Very popular venue, my comments shouldn't put anyone off!
J. C.
This is yet another Wetherspoons in Manchester City Center. If you've been in one then you've been in another, and it's the same here too apart from one large difference. That is how large it is. I have been told this is the largest Wetherspoons in the UK (this can be Googled, but I'll leave that up to you to do if you want to know - having seem it I'm happy to believe it).
There are two floors with huge bars on each of them - however there are only toilets on the top floor.
The drinks menu is nothing special by any stretch - I couldn't get a stout other than Guinness - but there are all the usual suspects otherwise including cocktails, so although CAMRA won't be recommending this place any time soon.
Food - again standard finger type food. Chicken wings, chicken bites with dips. These were pretty tasty actually but the garlic bread on the other hand was way under cooked. Really put me and ever one in our group off eating it. It wasn't raw, just... Sloppy...
The reason I decided to add review for yet another Wetherspoons when a review of one is enough for any is the size. In this time of covid caution, some people will be happy to know there is a bar in Manchester that will have more than enough room for social distancing while all is that lasts.

Visited here on an overnight stay, the pub is very spacious inside with plenty of seating. There is also an upstairs seating area too. First ordering via the app and it was so quick and efficient! The food was a very generous portion and tasted amazing. Lovely atmosphere. Came out pretty quick from ordering via app.
J. 1.
A good meeting place, very open and easy to respect Covid19 regulations.
Good variety of beverages and food when allowed. Reasonably priced for a City centre venue.
C. M.
A standard Wetherspoons very busy on Saturday 28 August. Service was good and drinks reasonable. No meals taken.
C. B.
Unbelievably busy on my visit. Absolutely nowhere to sit, friendly door staff managing entry to the pub to try and mitigate the overcrowding.
I. M.
Nice pub and friendly staff and not to busy so got served straight away
W. N.
Nice brekkie and a pint cheap aswell
M. R.
Had to come here because my mate took us to a place without realising we needed to book in advance. Nice for a spoons.
A. C.
Good service, food ok for pub grub. Good selection of drinks although currently under pressure with supplies
M. j.
Very friendly staff and the venue itself is really lovely. I would consider this as one of the nicest spoons I that I have been too.
r. t.
Yes I love it here and have for yeéeears. Friendly staff, great service, great food, great prices and great surroundings. So come here and enjoy.
S. D.
Food very good. I was under the impression that wetherspoons didn't have music and dancing but this one did, not what we were expecting.
m. p.
Great place for drinks and to dance the night away
A. C.
Fab atmosphere. Very busy
d. w.
Most of the staff were courteous and polite, just one spoilt it always shouting,pushing you out of the way other than that was a pleasant place to eat and drink
C. S.
Always decent value
M. O.
Ok for a quick 1 but couldn't spend more than a hour in there with no music and the doorman walking the floor looking for people the throw out !!!
M. T.
9am. I had a large breakfast and coffee. Good and tasty, and the coffee was fresh. Quiet and clean, staff were friendly. 👍👍
S. S.
Nice spacious Wetherspoons on Deansgate. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Food came quickly. Recommend.

Edit review,
Visited this place 25/06/21, arrived 1st customers, tables not fully clean, sticky around the sides and under edges,even though we was first customers, this is basic cleaning,Not Good enough.Also cleaning generally could be better.
NO control on peaple not having face masks on, on the good side, ALL staff polite and professional .
The food was good but minimum in quantity
FIRST REVIEW
This is a great place for food and drink. Normally used as a starting point for everyone going on a night out.
M. F.
Class little meet up place, cheaper than most pubs and livens up in the evening with no emphasis on dress codes etc. Just wholesome drinking and laughing.
R. P.
Lovely pub. Kids loved the layout.
J. P.
Great place for tennis players from the 70s. They serve up great pints.
d. r.
Busy wetherspoons as you'd expect in a city, pre gig drinks can't go wrong, second bar further in was less busy.
D. B.
Good atmosphere and enjoyed super value curry with superb choice of ales.
D. R.
Best place to be...food fantastic and great Saturday night disco atmosphere later on...Great time
R. H.
Well... I'm was surprised. I expected a dross sticky carpet kinda place.
Clean, tidy, well presented and spacious. I'd go again mid week..
B. M.
Wetherspoons usual cheap and cheerful but crowded and noisy it was Saturday
N. L.
Polite staff like all wetherspoons
L. H.
My favourite Wetherspoons, drinks and food are always spot on, never had a bad pint of real ale from here.
A. A.
Good value an nice place
J. M.
One of the larger wetherspoons in a former cinema. Upstairs and downstairs to it so always somewhere to sit. Decent enough service and the same usual cheap and cheerful wetherspoons food.
T. B.
It's a very large pub and is fine for meeting friends during the day and having a bite to eat, but it can sometimes have a bad atmosphere during busy times at night and over the weekend.
s.
Propa spoons got a steak n chips and a whooping 34 chips buzzing
E. D.
We had a great time in here in between Christmas markets.
D. G.
Usual wetherspoons quality with food and beers, been a couple of times now and had hot food one day and only warm food the following but staff were more than helpful
A. F.
Very nice eating establishment. Lovely staff
F.
Only a few minutes walk from my house so perfect for going into after a long day's work on the bike. I like the crowd and the size of the place is impressive. You will always get a spot to sit down in here. The staff are very friendly.
I've ordered breakfast here before aswell and it's good and the portions are impressive. The drinks are certainly affordable too. There's free refills of tea and coffee for breakfast too! I would recommend this pub if you were in a group of people meeting up because there is certainly enough room to sit everyone.
D. C.
Great pub, great prices, great location.
R. B.
Ideal place to hold a discussion group as it was not crowded and no music or TV sound.
Bar staff polite and accommodating
P. D.
Great pub, very busy, in the evening. Good cheap food, only criticism is that the bars are a bit small for the size of the pub. If you are happy to use the app to order it’s not a problem.
G. H.
ended up there after the cricket was called off,
Nice breakfast,good range of good priced real ales, nice beef madras and helpful staff
A. O.
Excellent food and service, thanks guys
J. P.
Food bland. Hardly any food in stock. They are blasé now ....
d. l.
Nice building, very good service
V. M.
We visited on a monday at 6pm and it was fairly quiet but the place is huge so there is plenty of seating. It was actually a lot nicer than i expected for a wetherspoons and the atmosphere was great! We all had food which was served quickly although my steak was brutally destroyed when asked for it rare, everyone else seemed to enjoy it. The staff were all lovely upstairs
M. G.
According to myths the biggest Pub in all of England. Great prices nonetheless.
M. L.
Nice pub just popped in for a drink.
C. R.
had couple jugs of cocktails, fabulous value for money
D.
Yeah really nice place
Sorry but never enough staff on
But wouldn't stop me returning
M.
We had loved it there last night. Great place if you want to sit, chat as well as dance 💃 atmosphere and staff really nice. My first dancing experience in Manchester. Security doing great job to keep it safe especially on the dance floor. Loved it ! Well done guys! Definitely going back.
D. R.
Had a really enjoyable Saturday evening to celebrate my birthday with family & friends. The good was delicious and prices of meals are reasonable, as are the drinks. There was an old school disco playing too & lots of people up dancing so it was enjoyed by all.
O.
pretty banging for a spoons, they have like 3 bars so even at weekend its quick to get a beer.
J. C.
A little rough and ready but okay for the price and a short visit.
T. J.
Standard wetherspoons...decent staff
D. M.
Can get very busy in here with a variety of interesting local characters. Not always the cleanest of places. Serves typical Wetherspoons fare. The pub is enormous. Used to be the Studio 1 and 2 cinema back in the day.
S. R.
I love The Moon Under Water, I really do, but sadly all the tales of being refused service for showing any sign at all of having had a drink are all true. I have been having a laugh with people here before and been asked to leave for being "drunk", been refused service for the same reason when I had had only 2 pints elsewhere and I also got asked to leave when I tripped going up the stairs and one of the bouncers saw it happen. Sadly not a place to have a good time.
K. S.
A good spoons, lots of seating , tables needed to be cleaned and turned over a little quicker but overall very good
N. J.
Was in Monday evening, had a pint of Abbott ale. Very good. Service was a little slow though.
C. B.
Not too busy, food was good too
S. R.
Breakfast was lovely but the staff behind the bar need a shot of adrenaline as everything seemed a bit too much trouble. The guy who waited on the tables had great customer service skills though. Food could have been a touch warmer but for the price the breakfast can't be beaten.
P. S.
Only had 1 pint and tested flat
A. G.
Always the place to start a night out in Manchester.
J. W.
Cheap drinks, food and tunes on a Sat night. Very hard to go for food on a Saturday afternoon as it is packed so never any seats. Great Spoons all round though, nice staff, good atmosphere.
E. C.
Very large pub on three levels part of the wetherspoons chain. Good selection of real ales and food.
R. K.
I went with a group of vegan friends. Decor was great. Prices were extremely reasonable. Food menu was excellent with a separate vegan menu. However, two of the vegan dishes were initially delivered to the table in their non vegan form and had to be changed. Once sorted the food was excellent 👍
A. M.
It's a wetherspoons and it's a good one, food is good, staff are really nice and it's a good location and prices are good .
Nothing not to like about i always go it's good meeting place
S. R.
Good beer
Fair priced food
L. H.
Really nice, big spoons with plenty of choices to sit. The standard spoons choices but in an alternative looking venue that feels a bit fancier. The modern age now comes with a laziness of being able to order on an app and not have to speak to anyone or move which I can definitely get on board with. I ordered a gourmet veggie burger - onion rings and chips top notch but the burger was a little dry. I remember it being better so wonder what’s changed? I had some cookies and ice cream for pudding which was nice to end the meal. Of all the spoons in Manchester that I’ve been to, this one is probably my fave.
S. a.
Great visit. Meeting point for our friends.
A. b.
Table service was really good, very strict on masks but don't have to wear once seated
D. M.
OK but let far too many people in. Tables not cleared quick enough, we we're there over an hour and still not done.
D. C.
absurd. the palace of versailles as a spoons. this place is so big i lost my card inside and i knew it was gone for good. absolutely obsessed.
A. “. H.
It's a Wetherspoons what more can you say, good food, cheap drinks, always busy though
L. K.
Long wait for food but ok
D. B.
Nice place for a cheap brekky and a pre-match pint!
P. G.
The Food, Drinks & Service are all of the usual Wetherspoons standard, but that cannot be said of a very tired building in need of dragging into the 21st century.
H. R. G.
Great place. Staff could be a little happier. But after meeting one of the managers tonight, to discuss my lost phone I knew had been handed in, and the with the response I recieved i can see why they may be unhappy. I'd give it 5 stars but for how rude he was. He did not want to help at all. Disgusting behaviour from a manager..
C. F.
Great big pub this, but it's become a victim of it's own success. We arrived at 4.30 on a Friday afternoon and there was only one table available. Good atmosphere and good choice of food and drink
A. B.
Big space inside lots of tables don't think the staff liked our group as 1 of our party was a little too tipsy however the staff served him and then we all got asked to leave
A.
I've spent many a night in this place, ideal place to meet up if you're out with a crowd, before moving on. I wouldn't really suggest it for a date though.
Not tried the food there, but I have seen a lot of people ordering there, so it can't be bad. The drinks are a good price too.
D. W.
The pub itself was immaculate everywhere clean and tidy but the beer was awful(ruddles). When been in before it's been fine.
R. 6.
Quick service, friendly staff. Breakfast a bit small. Had the scrambled egg on toast. Tasted great just a small serving. Maybe three toast as apposed to two or maybe a choice of toast. 1, 2 or three would be good.
S. E.
The food was OK the jacket potato was a little hard on the bottom but the vegan chilli was great. Bit disappointed that there's no vegan deserts, there's a dairy free ice cream but had meringue in there. Drinks are reasonably priced, I will be returning just maybe not for afters
M. P.
Great food we had mixed grill and burger food was cooked perfectly
Drinks are great valus for money especially the pitchers
J. S.
Great weatherspoons staff great .music & dancing from 9pm till 2am well recommended.
D. P.
I love this place.. It's a very big JD Witherspoon's; an impressive building, with a huge balcony.. Cheap and cheerful; with good service, good food, beer at the right price and even a dance floor for the weekend 😀..
Also, the X43 bus stop is right outside..
What more could you ask for? 😀
C. B.
Nice atmosphere, cheap drinks, enormous inside. I think it is the biggest Wetherspoons pub. Basically with Spoons the food isn't the absolute best, but you get it at a very cheap price, comparative to the cost of eating in other places in the city. And the range of drinks is fantastic.
M. G.
Service was good, although bar very quiet. Pulled chicken burger leaves a lot to be desired with description. An average meal but then you get what you pay for! filled a hole enroute to a gig at Castlefield Bowl. Still cheap as chips
L. L.
Nice clean, pleasant staff, best bacon butty I've had for years, would deffo go again. Grandaughter had big breakfast 10/10. Can't wait to try the York one when I visit in a couple of week. ♥️♥️
V. W.
Standard Wetherspoon offer. I had the vegan pie and was offered a miserly portion of vegetables, unlike when I ordered the same dish in another branch. After I complained, a very friendly manager came and offered me some extra peas in a gravy boat. Excellent range of cask ales at low prices.
D. H.
Just had the large breakfast and free to refill lavazza coffee (only £1.45 for coffee). Ideal if you are staying in a nearby hotel.
Very tasty and presentable meal, at a fair price. Fantastic city centre location, obviously no free parking nearby.
I was very happy with the great customer service and the cleanliness of the pub/restaurant.
Toilet facilities are clean and to a high standard.
The pub is massive, so works perfectly for socialising or for privacy if on your own.
Their is an outside eating and drinking area in front of the pub, where you can smoke and watch the busy crowds go by.
Excellent experience, which I highly recommend.
E. M.
Didn't get to food I ordered,tea and coffee machine not stocked up and quite unclean,room for improvement..☹️
P. S.
Massive place . Not a bad pint
R. R.
This is a traditional Whetherspoon pub. If you can get into the booths upstairs, you'll have a great view over the balcony to the lower floor. Food is standard for this kind of place. It can get very busy, with barely standing room, at the weekends. Service is quite efficient despite this though.
s.
A large classic looking pub with a dance floor. Brings crowds of all ages, yet tends to be slightly more suited for the older generations. Drinks are reasonably priced. Went into Venus beforehand and got a stamp, came out and had drinks here before going back. No problems!
S. P.
Friendly staff, great location! Would have given 5⭐ but the poached eggs were over cooked.
M.
Nice friendly staff, good value food, WiFi and, should you wish, you've coffee refills all day long. Fantastic building, (but loos need a deep clean) hand washing area lovely with full length mirror.
P. A.
Being near Christmas it was full of Christmas revellers, dispite that service was excellent especially when ordering food, at other Christmas venues I have attended food has taken ages to appear and is invariably cold. I was amazed, I ordered my food and just as I was sitting down my food appeared and was hot and tasty.
B. P.
Same as any other Wethersoons for drinks but a lot dearer than in the Yorkshire Area ! Food menu not much choice & poor quality.
F. F.
Had some drinks with friends, very busy place.
R. C.
Nice place, decent building with character. Cleaning of tables leaves a lot to be desired, and service in general just painfully slow
D. S.
Came here after the cricket was cancelled. It was busy but got the drinks quickly thrifty the app
S. B.
Went to Christmas markets and called in here for lunch - curry day. All 3 of us had the curry and a lovely pink gin or two. The place is not the smartest, and some of the people were not my sort, but on the whole the food was excellent for the money, and we spent a happy couple of hours. I would go again.
P. C.
It's a Wetherspoons so you know what to expect. The pub is clean and the beer is cheap and good quality. Not the greatest choice in draft real ale but the beers on offer were decent enough
K. C.
It's a very good value for money place in terms of food, and meal deals. The vegetarian options are really good, and the vegetarian full English breakfast is amazing. The building itself is really beautiful and has gorgeous stain glass windows, and bits of the history to the building.
D. H.
This place is massive. The bar downstairs is very long and at weekend is always packed. Upstairs there is another bar. The prices are good, typical Wetherspoon's and there is usually a good but noisy atmosphere.
K. M.
It's a top of the range witherspoon..
C. B.
Good large weatherspoons, as with all in this chain you know what you're getting for your money. Well priced drinks and moderately decent food too. Can't complain
D. J.
When in my youth and working at TigerTiger in the Printworks, even though people would leave our venue at 1 am, we would be cleaning/cashing up until at least 6 am.
After a quick drink in work, we would head to Moon Under Water as it was just opening and we’d have a good few drinks in this place before heading home for sleep and to repeat.
It’s a JDW so drinks cheap and breakfast cheerful.
D. I.
Amazing service & brilliant value for money. Used this pub many times whilst working in the area and was not disappointed once. Food was always hot and served very promptly (in fact one night the food was almost on the table before we got back to it. Great beer too.
p. e.
Alright place to start the night. Service in the upstairs bar wasn't good
Three staff member on the bar, all just serving one end. We were there for almost half an hour before we had to ask if anyone is going to serve our end, 5 minutes later we finally got served. You expect a wait at the weekend but that was ridiculous. Other patrons left or went to the does stairs bar which was 3 deep but you still got served quicker.
G. H.
Huge pub and former cinema with a laid back atmosphere and good selection of real ales at cheap prices. I like the balcony on the top floor and the old cinema fittings also there is a bar on each floor (3).
C. H.
A great Wetherspoons. Always quite busy, but has plenty of staff on the bar normally. Even better now they have the app where you can order from the table,and they bring the did and drinks to your table. Great choice of drinks, with some amazing gins. Always on our list when we visit Manchester.
F. S.
A middle aged crowd but a really warm friendly atmosphere regardless of age. Its cheap and cheerful and you cant go wrong with pitchers priced around £7, they taste really nice too. Theres a DJ on friday and saturday nights which plays older bangers the kind everyone knows. The food is decent, good portion sizes and good value for the money. Decent, cheap, fun night out :-)
R. Z.
Nice place where you can drink and eat very well wit not expensive prices. Sometimes you have to wait for a long time on your order and the toilet is a little bit disgusting. A very big varieties of beer. Nice to be there and feel the atmosphere
e.
My first Wetherspoons experience and I was not disappointed! Came here for my friends 18th - food and drinks were cheap and tasty, fast friendly service, and gluten free menus readily available. The big hall room upstairs was really aesthetically pleasing, had a fabulous time! Will definitely be returning.
M. R. C.
Down to Earth pub with a wide range of food and drinks to suit any budget. Professional and friendly staff. Good value for money. Free Wi-Fi and bottomless coffee. Not a place to take a girl on a date but perfect for a group of mates or a place to sit and get a bit of work done while sipping a cuppa.
F. T.
Big and busy wetherspoon in Manchester City centre. The pub is usually busier than usual due to its big, it isn't the appropriate place to take a quick lunch in work's break time, however, the food was very nice and the service is quick. If you are visiting Manchester take a look at the pub, avoid to come in if you're on duty or at work.
C.
Pretty standard Wetherspoons, with very reasonably priced food and a decent selection of drinks for a good price. Visited for breakfast and it was excellent for the price you pay. Staff were friendly enough, the place was busy, but the food was still served extremely quickly. Would definitely visit again for a breakfast.
S. J.
It's good, cheap eats. Has bargain deals, etc. Feels like it's ready for a refurbishment and could do with a few more table staff, but it was a good middle of the road experience at a great price. It's a very large space and was full at Saturday lunchtime so must be doing something right.
T. b.
Probably the largest Wetherspoons I've ever been to, 2 floors multiple bars and a large dance floor. The building itself is surprisingly open plan. For the city centre it's certainly not cramped. Only gripe is as usual the music tends to be 3 stops too loud.
R. T.
The most beautifulest lady in the world borrowed me her pen it was the best pen in the world
A. O.
Incredible venue, we went on a Saturday night and the disco was great, the dj had everyone up and dancing with cheesy 80s and 90s pop. There was a creepy guy pestering us and other groups of women at the bar and their tables and the guys working at the bar were so great, telling him at the time to respect our wishes to pay for our own drinks and coming to our table to check we were ok and assuring us they would be keeping an eye on him, and were just really friendly and lovely even though they were busy. Just brilliant staff and a great experience, the best I’ve had at a Wetherspoons anywhere.
S. R.
One of the best weatherspoons I've been to ! Lovely staff, plenty of room and can always get a seat !
D.
Always busy but service has gone downhill. Staff were totally focussed on the new TV screen showing orders via the mobile phone App, and were ignoring the queue at the bar and avoiding eye contact with punters who had been waiting 10 mins. Bar Service has gone downhill. If you are not using their Mobile phone App to order, then you will have to wait. On the positive side, I did (eventually manage)to order food and it was excellent.
My Friday night visit was ruined after the food though. Wetherspoons are famous for their " no music or TV policy- because it destroys conversation" well in this venue this Wetherspoons policy does not seem to apply, as they cleared the floor of chairs & tables at 8pm (on a Friday night) for some unwelcome/ unwanted music. Customers who were spending money and enjoying conversation were moved out so a DJ could play loud music! Which made conversation impossible. There's a hundred venues in Manchester providing this nonsense for those who like it, so why are Spoons doing this? An absolutely terrible commercial decision. Totally ruined the great atmosphere of the venue. My picture of an empty dance floor demonstrates what a pointless decision this was !!! Maybe 75 people left when the DJ started up his racket.
Get rid of the pointless unwanted DJ. !!! And please restore the opportunity to talk to people without competing with loud music.
R. E.
I really enjoy going to weatherspoons as its value for money. This one is the best so far,staff are so helpful and it's clean. I love the way the decor is kept,its like going back in time. Would of given 5 stars but there was graffiti in the ladies loos.
H. Y.
visited 24/03/18. Would have given a higher rating had it not been for a very rude and angry barman who repeatedly ignored multiple customers who had been waiting to be served in favour of those who had just turned up. He then got all snarly and sulky when it was asked if he could serve in order and not ignore customers who had been waiting for over 20 minutes to be served. No issues with the other staff they were all polite and friendly. Top marks to the bouncer dealing with an angry man who stripped to the waist and wanted to fight him, he handled that beautifully.
W. N.
One of the largest, if not the largest, Wetherspoons in the area. Quick service and good food on this visit.
T. A.
Really nice location in an old theatre (?) However our experience wasn't as good as we would have hoped. I ordered a breakfast but didn't want the egg or tomato, so i asked for a swap, which apparently they are not allowed to do. This is never a problem where food is freshly prepared. My girlfriend ordered a hot chocolate the looked and tasted like dishwater.
n. p.
Visited on a Sunday. It was quiet and our party enjoyed the visit. Friendly barstaff and good prices. I had a non alcoholic drink at a very reasonable price. It is a pleasant environment in the midst of a frenzied shopping area at the centre of Manchester.
P. N.
I went with a friend yesterday because they were having one of their daily promotions. Tuesday was Steak Night, which means all the steak meals are only £8.99 including a drink. I had a mixed grill (steak, gammon, chicken, pork, chips, peas, mushrooms and grilled tomato) with a pink of Strongbow Dark Fruit cider, my friend had a mixed grill too with a glass of red wine. Bargain at £17.98 for 2, in a lot of pubs and restaurants you wouldn't get one meal never mind a drink included! Well worth it...
S. S.
Great pub grub and clean👍👍
A. C.
This place gets hammered, not the nicest of pubs to go for breakfast as the seats are filthy and breakfast each time i go has to be heated up because its cold.
Staff are nice and helpful, only downside is because its on deansgate this places get full of people at night and people drinks etc just run the place down much faster.
Apart from that just your average pub that sells frozen / packet food that is reheated. Cannot relaly complain as the food portions etc are always the same
a. s.
One of the best pubs in Manchester and as the building used to be a theatre it's huge inside.
Friday's and Saturdays the tables on the dance floor area are removed and disco plays til late into the morning.
Average price for drinks and food.
Highly recommended
f. f.
Big warehouse sized pub.
It's the same as pretty much any other Spoons from Southampton to Aberdeen.
Cheap food quick no frills service and decent value.
It was clean and tidy very much the ronseal of the pub chains.
D. B.
A very nice place,had some food and it was good and at a reasonable price
K. Z.
Lovely experience. Pub looks really nice, the building is amazing. Staff is really professional and attentive. Ordered english breakfast that was really good!
R.
Food and drink cheap and cheerful as expected from a Wetherspoon's, however their insistence at having a DJ start at 9pm, playing loud music when no one has shown any inclination that they want to dance is frustrating, so we had to leave to continue our conversation. It's a pub, not a club!
A. A.
Very very big space and lots and lots of opened area (just outside) of arndale centre
A. W.
This pub pleasantly surprised me with the size of the property! It's so beautiful at the far end. I come here alot with colleagues and friends. Food is always on time and it's never too over crowded.
J. A.
Lovely staff
Food wasnt hot
R. H.
Good standard Weatherspoons with all you would expect, but the venue is massive! 3 bars help keep service times quick, even when busy. If visiting, try to head further towards the back as the front gets very busy.
R. N.
Went there for a breakfast to kill some time while my car was being serviced.paid ten pounds for two breakfasts and two coffees got to be the best value breakfast in Manchester .We were served by reece who ex plained all the covid restrictions and made the visit an enjoyable one.Well done wetherspoons
A.
Good food, quick service, friendly staff, however the toilets wre not so good and dirty, the place itself was busy and the staff looked under pressure, first time there and would return, 5 stars for the food and service, 2 stars for the cleanliness of the toilets, time of visit 09.30 A.M
L. C.
11 of our family met here as some live abroard, we met around 1.30 pm and left around 7.30 pm. We had food which was lovely and plenty of drinks which were all great The only issue we had was with a couple of staff members hence the 3* . A member of staff knocked over a glass of wine (which happens) but her attitude was shocking and derogatory like she couldn't be bothered and a bar staff member actually asked my husband had he heard him right when we questioned why there was no red 2ine by glass? Lots of other staff were very nice but a couple were rude and disappointing...
D. M.
Helpful staff clean seating area good choice of beers and lagers and food 👌
S. M.
noise in the evening at weekends not sure about the daytime
R. E.
Spoons in town what else is there to say 🤣👍🏼Always a laugh
B.
Fast and friendly service. Unlimited hot drinks for 99p. Clean toilets. Can't fault it.
C. B.
Loads of seating, upstairs and downstairs. Friendly staff, very chatty and helpful. A great selection of drinks. Soft drinks, I recommend the raspberry lemonade and alcoholic drinks,. Wine, beer, ales, craft beer, gin, spirits and cocktails. Food is perfect, I recommend the new drive thru burger with onion rings. Absolutely fantastic
L. B.
A Wetherspoons pub that fits the description 'It's bigger on the inside' - I wouldn't have expected there to be so much space. The building has a very nice architecture and used to be a cinema. Atmosphere, food and drinks are good, I've had a negative experience with one of the staff once but on all other occasions the service was fine.
C. G.
Cheap and cheerful. Only wanted coffee with my meal and the machine was playing up. The staff were very helpful and sorted it out quickly
W. K.
Seriously impressive setup, a large and capable team serving two floors of service. Great timings and painless ordering process. The best of what Spoons can be.
g. p.
Just what you expect from jb weatherspoons
P. C.
I had a veg curry rice naan bread poppadom 1 onion bhaji it was gorgeous (couldn't eat all naan) my partner had chicken burger fries & salad (ate the lot) & pint shandy. It was Thu so mine came with a pint.. approx £13..
Very clean & very friendly staff & good service.
We will definitely go back
S. C.
Curry was good the nan bread was cold

Great meeting place. Reasonable prices. Staff, look at who is waiting please. 6ft2in and got overlooked a few occasions for people turning up after me. I know you get busy, but bear it in mind.

Good place former cinema good range of cask beers friendly staff one point though when going in through the main entrance to the bar if you don't see any cask beers you fancy carry on up a couple of steps and go to the bar at the back you may find a couple of gems

It is what it is. On Saturday is was busy and hard to get a seat. But it sells cheapish beer. Took a while to get served but they needed more bar staff at the point I was in. It's not my favourite place, I don't hate it either.

It's a Spoons so it's exactly what you expect. Food and drinks are meh but also nice and cheep. The pizzas are acctually pretty good. Moon underwater is huge with two floors so there are always seats.

Like every Weatherspoons a good place to relax with food and drinks that dont cost a arm and a leg. Great surrounds in a old picture house with 3 bars spread over two floors. Also a great meeting point before you have a night on the town!
