I know the owner is a it of a that pro brexit and his policy of not paying his workers due to been closed because of covid.

But would you still go in for the cheap drinks on a night out as maybe your first pub of a night

I was on a recent UK trip and shamefully I did cross the doors and get a meal and drinks. The purse always dictates I'm afraid

The one down home seems to be always full of the local scumbags for some reason.

Was just intrested back in waterford a few days holidays saw that one opened up here, just wondering what people thought about it. Never set foot in the one in cork or any in the UK.

Been in a few of them. Awful spots. Spent about 18 euro and was locked. Has its uses I suppose but only ideal for lads looking to meet up for manchata.

The app is impressive though. Very handy for getting a pint.

They have their place. Cheap food and cheap drinks and the app is handy. They have a reasonable selection of beers too. Not the place to linger in all night though.

Great concept, but horrible places and the app is a hateful invention - it's sole existence have cut chances of staff getting any tips whatsoever to a brutal level.

Also happened to get food poisoning from hell after eating at one in London airport (didn't have much time to spare and all other places were full).

Will never be back to any of them

Wouldn't be a fan but maybe publicans could lower their price a bit if they thought they'd loose a few quid to the likes of weatherspoons

In the Blanch one once before CV19 and 3 out of 4 of us got food poisoning! Not been back since but friends were there recently and had similar experiences. Do NOT eat the food in them down here.

Enniskillen one, on the other hand, is quite good, weirdly.

"I know the owner is a it of a that pro brexit and his policy of not paying his workers due to been closed because of covid.

My assumption would be that his employees here in Ireland would have been covered by the Covid unemployment payment during the times pubs and restaurants had to close, no?

I used to frequent a southside Dublin Whetherspoons while in college for 2 years (just before Covid), probably every couple of weeks for a coffee, occasional breakfast, lunch or even dinner with my class mates.

The place was always clean, warm with a lovely open fire, the staff were always warm, friendly, welcoming and chatty. I could never fault the food, and if memory serves me right, I don't think my class mates ever complained either. Coffee for €1.80 at the time with a refill when you're a student as opposed to a fiver for a Starbucks...It was affordable and suitably priced. The clientele, due to the prices, were probably a lot of students during the day.

Is there an app now through which you have to order? I certainly wouldn't! If I'm out and about, I want to talk with people and not sit on the phone placing orders

In saying that, I wouldn't be a pub goer anyway and Whetherspoons probably wouldn't be the place I, or my friends, would suggest for a night in the pub... cheap drinks or not - but I wouldn't frequent a pub charging a tenner for a pint either!!!
