I visited the bar/​resturant on the afternoon of sat 10 nov 20 12. I had a very average lunch which was OK but most tables were dirty & uncleared. I enquired about the xmas menu as they are one of very few that are open on christmas day. NOT one of the staff knew very much about the menu for xmas day, plus another said, i quote, that its nothing to do with me. is this the way to run a business in the currant climate, surley the staff should be promoting this special family day. Also when asked if there is a deposit req for a child booking (adult is £10 per head) the reply was i suppose £3.00 will do. What a way to run a business. I would say that head office needs to have a serious look at this establishment if they wish to keep the good name of Wetherspoons with its customers. Staff need retrained in customer service skills & how to clean customer tables.

Typical Wetherspoons. Most food tastes microwaved, except burgers and steaks which are generally great. The downstairs bar is full of old fellas most of the time, but it can get rough after evening time, especially at the weekend, and is infamous for fights which spill out into the street. Despite that, the ‘family’ area upstairs is fine at any time, and the downstairs bar is generally good and relaxed early in the day, for lunch etc.

This is always somewhere we would go before a night out, to get a bit of cheap drink before heading on somewhere better.
The bar has a good location, the staff are friendly, and the drink is cheap. That’s pretty much all of it’s good points.
The downstairs bar is pretty large and the layout is a bit cluttered, all of the tables just sort of jammed in together. The clientele, as mentioned, are quite dodgy. Mostly made up of older men and women over the age of 50, who look a tad rough around the edges, mostly wearing tracksuits.
It’s also got a reputation as a bit of a boxing ring, and I’ve heard many reports of fights kicking off here, but thankfully I’ve not been there when any of this has happened.
They have a restaurant upstairs, where you can get a decent feed for dirt cheap, and while the food is no haute cuisine, it’s tasty enough and you get good sized portions. I particularly enjoy their Thursday night curry club.

This wouldn’t be my choice for going out drinking in or even eating late at night-i’ve heard too many bad reports of fighting and general trouble. However, for a lunch I think eating upstairs is great! The food isn’t too bad-​perfectly acceptable for the price of it and there are always good deals going on.
great for a good value lunch, but don’t expect to be completely bowled over by the place

Formerly the Central Bar this branch of Wetherspoons is, well, central in Carrickfergus, just across the road from the fanmous Norman Castle.
Its typical of all Wetherspoons in that food is only ok a bit like canteen nosh but can’t be beaten on value for money. Always plenty of deals on drinks and food and if you register on their website they sent you a kind of newsletter with lots of 2 for 1 type offers on drinks and meals so for top marks for value if not for quality!

Rough punters, regular fights and rude staff. Food microwaved and not very tasty.
There are some good drinks promos though.
