Several pop into my head every day, but I'd prefer to remain un-banned from NSC.
Reminds me of a thread I saw on Twitter about 'worst things you've seen in a pub'.
Someone said they saw a wedding party come into their local 'Spoons, with a bride in white wedding dress and the lot.
Apparently it became obvious that they hadn't notified staff in advance.

Loving all the hipsters sneering as always into their overpriced alcopops at the poor people.
Well done

Why oh why oh why?
Had lunch at Wetherspoons today. My colleague had the Christmas dinner. It looked... ...fine.
(I had a most disappointing -and-Kidney Pudding, with a deliciously FRESH pint of Salcombe Brewery Island Street Porter*).
* Blimey it was fresh, I just couldn't believe how fresh it was. Perhaps the freshest ever. I don't think it would even be possible to make a fresher pint of beer.

Oh, the poor little foody snob! I really hope he's suffered no lasting damage.
'I tried Wetherspoon's £12 Christmas dinner - but there were two things missing'
I headed down to my local Spoons branch to batten down the hatches and try out their Christmas dinner, at a bargain cost of £11.99 or £13.52 with a pint - but there are some issues you just can't ignorewww.mirror.co.uk
Each to their own
Anyone else ventured out to try it?

last time I went to spoons in George St some Doris had a row with her boyfriend and picked up his pint and blindly chucked it backwards over her head hitting me. Well this didn't go down at all well with me and the BF who was getting mouthy copped it. God they ran fast.

NSC full of faux snobbery, who'd have thunk it?
I do to the 'Spoons in Tunny Wells. Lime and Soda is just 50p a pint, plenty of room to sit down and have a chat . Once a year it is converted back into an opera house and they have a show there.
Easy to be sniffy about the place, I don't share the politics of the owner, but then again he doesn't share mine. We should be able to get on with different views.
Would not be keen on Christmas meal there, but for someone on a different budget that might be a different decision to make.

I did stop using spoons post 2016. (Same as I don't buy Dyson products). They also treated their staff poorly through covid.
My attitude to the former is softening. The latter is hardening. Maybe I am becoming more tolerant or perhaps less cash rich
You can never get a cold Turps in B & QBut to give them their due, in terms of units of alcohol per pound, they are second only to B&Qs decorating department
