The Elihu Yale - Wrexham

Popped in here for a pub lunch on a visit to Wrexham on market day. It's a standard Wetherspoons in a lovely old building that used to be a cinema. The interior is very large, lots of tables crammed together, but there are eating areas that are a bit more separate and cosy, and a choice of seating. The decor is traditional, with wood panelling and some interesting old photos on the walls. Accessible and clean downstairs toilets. It was very busy and noisy when I arrived, but I managed to find a nice table at the back of the pub. The bar was well stocked with a wide variety of cask ales, wine and spirits. Bar staff were very friendly. The extensive menu offered all the usual Wetherspoons fare including pizzas, curries, burgers, grills and traditional pub favourites, with smaller versions of many of the dishes and also children's meals. It was useful to see the number of calories displayed against each meal choice. Opted for the 5oz gammon with fried egg, mushroom, tomato, jacket potato and peas, and a Mediterranean side salad. Service was quick and efficient despite the staff being very busy and rushed, and a friendly waitress came back to ask if everything was okay. The food on the whole was average quality and could have been hotter, but the portions were good, the salad was fresh and really tasty, and the lunch and wine were not expensive.

I love a Spoons, and this is another great one. I had the lemon and herb chicken, as I do 80% of the time, and it was beautiful. My dining companion's Margarita pizza was also apparently super. The service was warm and attentive. The Elihu Yale is another charming old building into which Wetherspoons has breathed new life, and we really appreciated its heritage vibe.

Very impressed with the food and service which was very quick. Will be coming back. Floor could have done with a bit of a clean but have seen worse.

Came for a quick tea. Had steak pudding and mash. The pudding cooked in oven so it was dry not steamed. The mash was smash. Ok for the price.

Really friendly and professional staff. Food was fresh and hot.. even the beans... Usual value for Money. Everything clean and neat. Free WiFi and clean toilets..
