The Gooseberry Bush – JD Wetherspoon

1. Posh! Gorgous spoons. In heart of student land. Students not here at the moment as they’ve gone home for summer. This spoons is empty compared to town spoons. Walked here, but plenty of modes of transport nearby.

2. I like this Spoons as a student.
   Positive – Nice vibe. Service is often quick even with food. Polite bouncers. Good drinks in the right glasses. Fair priced.
   Negatives – Can be hard to get a table sometimes. Often very cramped. Not enough chairs for the tables.

3. An unusual facade and building we were drawn to the Gooseberry Bush.  Originally a women’s hospital, it is now owned by Weatherspoon.  Deceptively large inside with a raised outdoor terrace.  A reasonably pleasant view from the terrace.

4. I visited this restaurant for breakfast and had a disappointing experience. The coffee machine wasn’t working, and despite being told it would be fixed, it remained broken. When we informed the staff again, they were dismissive and rude. After waiting without any updates, we left without receiving the drinks we had paid for. A little politeness from the staff would have made a big difference.

5. Great Wetherspoons for students, can get overcrowded but if you are quick enough to get a seat then its a great place for pre-drinks with your mates on a budget. Food is cheap and cheerful, atmosphere is great and service is fast, what more could a student want?
