The only good thing I can say about Wetherspoons is that it was the only pub "in the big town" that would serve us at 16. The small local pub we went to always did but that was in more of a grandmotherly "aw they're better off in here than out drinking on a street corner" way than a "I literally don't care about anything and am dead inside" way like the Spoons.
And I suppose, objectively, "they used to serve us without ID when we were blatantly underage" isn't actually a positive.
Other than that ... ... I mean. It was fine for cheap Uni pre-drinks but even then, union was cheaper. Anyone who goes there voluntarily as an actual adult I just have to worry about their sense of self-worth
.
Like even if they did good chips that would make it more understandable but they're always luke-warm and undercooked.
