Describe witherspoons to someone who hasn't been there before

They’re a bit of a mix bunch really. Notable ones include Tim, a famous 1980’s heavyweight boxer, and Reece, an American actress.
Oh did you mean Wetherspoons? Good selection of real ales at 1980’s prices. Food is cheap but mostly edible. Generally free of pretentious wankers still banging out about Bwexit. |

"Choose wisely.
Some are quite comfortable and pleasant to sit in. Others are huge echo chambers with cloakrooms a ten minute walk up steep stairs.
I haven't been in one for over two years though  "
I sure do love the massive walk to the toilets  |

There's one in a town near us where it's quicker to walk to the nearby public lavatories  |

You beat me to it. You need to go again before you're back at your table! 🤣 |

I am that person whose never been in one but I don't drink so guess no surprise that I haven't been in one.
In fact I don't think I've been to a pub in 15 years (yes seriously). |

Drink cheap watered down booze at home with your feet glued to the carpet and invite two smelly alcoholics in who will attempt to chat up your Mrs before starting a pathetic fight / squabble.
If you want to get an early start eat a breakfast that you cooked yesterday and kept under a heat lamp all night. |

To be fair, some of the Wetherspoons here aren't too bad. One or two are a bit ropey, but 'The Britannia Inn' and 'Gog and Magog' are decent little places, with a nice mix of people. |

"When you don’t want to microwave your meal yourself "
It's so much more fun to have a tattooed, ex criminal with questionable hygiene standards microwave the same meal for me and charge me 3 x as much.  |

Some of the Wetherspoons I’ve visited are quite nice. The new one in Blackpool is really smart. The ones in market Drayton and Llandudno are ok to name a few. I didn’t realise I was on a site where only the rich and famous hang out. |

It's similar to Greggs in that anyone who hates themself and has no redeeming features or skills has to disrespect it in order to feel ........ well anything really.....maybe hide their low self esteem behind.
I enjoy my time in Wetherspoons. They are as lovely as the people who use them or the area they are in.
They have a fantastic business model and make good growth and that's not achievable unless they are very popular.
They aim to give value for money and they ring the changes frequently to keep your interest.
They may not be your choice of venue for your wedding breakfast but for a reasonably priced pub meal before the cinema or while you are out shopping and often with a drink thrown in they are a must.
All of the ones i've visited and I do mean ALL have great staff, clean toilets and welcoming atmospheres |

"It's similar to Greggs"
What, prey tell, is a Greggs?
"I enjoy my time in Wetherspoons. They are as lovely as the people who use them or the area they are in."
Is that an upmarket and urbane gastropub, Grånny?
"...reasonably priced pub meal before the cinema or while you are out shopping and often with a drink thrown in they are a must."
Do they offer 'prix fixe' pre-theatre menus?
"...great staff, clean toilets and welcoming atmospheres"
Are you a washroom connoisseur, Grånny? ❤️ |

Greggs is a purveyor of lukewarm, grease laden, slime filled stodgy pastry that has swiftly covered every last vestige of land that didn't already have a pie shop on. I go for a vegan sausage roll and a cup of tea every now n then.

...reasonably priced pub meal before the cinema or while you are out shopping and often with a drink thrown in they are a must. Do they offer 'prix fixe' pre-theatre menus? Permanently ( weg )

I have never used a washroom without rating it mentally if that helps Nero |
