Dirty table, nobody bothered to come round to wipe our table after requesting this at the bar. Food was not enjoyable, not even average. On the plus side, it looks quite a nice place and could be just that with a bit more effort and better food. And Strongbow is back which was good. But I' ll gladly pay more somewhere else going forward.
As with most Wetherspoons, there are good drinks at good prices. This one was quite busy as it was Friday night on Broad Street. I ordered at the bar first, and the staff were great, very friendly and polite. More importantly, they know how to pour a decent pint, unlike the last pub I'd been to this week. I then downloaded the app to try for the first time. I was impressed with how quick my drink came to the table, but something was a little off with it. There was a cherry flavour in there, I'm thinking it was because they accidentally used cherry pepsi max instead of the standard pepsi max I'd ordered. I'm hoping it wasn't some kind of cherry liqueur instead of JD. Drank it anyway and moved on. The place looks so different to when I used to pop in 15-20 years ago.
I've been here before and wrote a positive review... I'm pleased to say that The Figure of Eight is as good, if not better, than it wad before a couple of years ago. Sure, it's only a Wetherspoon's but Jada served with great care, consideration and politeness. Gav also was supportive of customers, always busying around and even asked us, as he passed, if the food was okay. As I say, it's only a Wetherspoon's but we received a genuinely connected service sometimes lacking in more regarded venues. As I said to the manager before leaving, he and his team have represented their brand and city very well. Thanks to all. Parking: Parking outside the venue is not possible but it's close to multiple car parks around this part of the city. Kid-friendliness: It's a family accepted pub with food and drink. Wheelchair accessibility: Street level access for wheelchair and infirm people.
A nice restaurant with a wide range of food choices and dining areas, all in one premise. Unique, one of its kind. Food is good, fantastic taste. Service is good. Free refills of soft drinks and beverages if you order with drinks. Prices are affordable. A comfortable place to wee the hours away. You can choose to read a book or get online on your notebook and even play a slot machine. You can dine in the in house air-conditioning area or at their open space backyard. Nice place to get together with friends and family.
Typical Weatherspoons, very busy because of the cheap drinks, but this was probably the worst burger I've ever had. I couldn't even finish it. Staff were lovely.Food: 1/5
Exactly what you have come to expect from the Wetherspoon brand, no matter what city or town you're in, we visited this location when in Birmingham for a gig and it was the perfect spot for a drink and a bite to eat at a time that suited. The service was great, really friendly staff and a short wait for our food to arrive and usual decent prices. Would recommend and definitely visit again if in the area
Had the pleasure of visiting figure of eight for a pre concert meal on the 27th November ,the pub is warm ,clean and the staff are exceptional at customer service ,you are made to feel welcome ,very attentive to making sure your food is ok ,cleaning the tables and most important conversing with the customers . The food was nicely cooked , presented and good value. Special hands up to Jay ,Callum ,the young lady who was collecting glasses and also a lovely ,charming young lady who I did not get her name but she delivered the food to the table.
I’ve been to this Wetherspoons a few times and had an absolutely great night. Unfortunately that was all undone in the space of 30 seconds. I was with a few of my friends waiting for our drinks when we were informed that our ordered drink was unavailable. My friend re-ordered a drink that was available. I turned to the service man to order the same but he was already walking off. Assuming he thought that me and my friend would get the same and so ordered the drinks as such. The next thing that happened is the same service man was telling us to leave because apparently I had waved my middle finger at him when he walked off. This was completely incorrect as I would never do this to a person doing their job fixing an inconvenience that was not their fault. He gave us no chance to explain ourselves despite the rest of our group protesting my innocence. We were removed from the building, with everyone more confused than angry about why we were actually being removed. I’m disappointed I didn’t get the service man’s name as I would love to credit this act of insanity to a person. Luckily the security man on the door was a man of greater awareness and directed our group to an alternative establishment. Thoroughly disappointed and we will not be returning and will warn everyone else who said they are going to this pub. I’m sure one man is not representative of the collective but never the less, he has soured our opinions of the establishment in question. Shame. I had previously enjoyed some great memories here.
The manager was very rude and aggressive towards my friend who was trying to order a drink at her turn in line. He seemed pissed off and others mentioned a constant scowl look on his face. In another incident, I was pushed by someone behind me and according to the manager I bumped into a bartender and a drink was spilled. I had no idea this had happened as I wasn’t facing the bar but instead a group of friends at a table in the corner. The manager came over, berated me, kicked me out and when I asked why he explained the bumping situation mentioned earlier. Then he proceeded to accuse me of ill intent because I didn’t apologize when it happened. As soon as I was told, I told him I didn’t know and I was sorry for my part in it. I explained that I should have been paying attention to where I was going and will pay for the drink. But he kept yelling at me to get out and when I asked what I can do to fix it and make things right, I was berated further. After talking to security, I gathered that the manager was fed up because the place was getting too crowded and he took the bad mood out on me. As I was leaving other customers who witnessed the situation explained that it was just a wrong place, wrong time thing and to not take it to heart.
I popped in for a glass of water and ended up buying a meal and a couple of drinks, mainly because Will made me laugh. Also very good service from the young woman with her hair tied up, recommending me a milk fried chicken burger - it was good but gone in 5 minutes as I was hungry.Food: 5/5
