About This Pub
Ah, The Benjamin Satchwell – it's one of those reliable Wetherspoon spots that always delivers when you're after something straightforward and affordable. I've got to say, the brekkie is a winner; that crispy bacon and perfectly toasted bread make for a proper treat, especially on a rainy day when you're just wanting something comforting before heading off. The prices are spot on too – you can grab a burger and a drink for under £10, which is brilliant for keeping things light on the wallet. Ordering via the app makes everything feel seamless and quick, and there's loads of space to spread out, which is great if you're with a group. On the flip side, it does get mobbed sometimes, particularly on Saturdays, so you might end up playing musical chairs for a seat. And while the food's generally tasty, like those chicken wings and nachos that folks rave about, the tables aren't always as clean as they'd like, and the drink choices can be a bit narrow if you're fancying something beyond the basics. All in all, it's a fantastic go-to for a casual catch-up or a quick meal, but I'd suggest popping in early to avoid the rush and maybe give the tables a quick wipe-down yourself. It's got that classic pub charm that keeps you coming back, warts and all!

Popped over from Rugby for some brekkie before our journey back home to Surrey. Brekkie was delish. Bacon 🥓 was crispy 😋, toast was toasty, freedom breakfast, and a hot drink, perfect on a miserable rainy 🌧 day in may before hopping onto the motorway 🛣.
Huge Wetherspoons on the Parade. Perfect if you want a reasonably prized drink and something to eat. Pub extends right to the back and there is plenty of seating. We ordered food and drink on the app. Service was quick.
Great place to get food or a drink at an amazing price. It is a British institution that everyone must give a try! A big fan :)
We popped in for a quick bite to eat and drinks, it was exactly what you'd expect
from a Wetherspoons on a Saturday night. It was pretty busy with only a table or 2 available, and a vibrant atmosphere with people talking. We both ate burgers and had a large soft drink, which cost less than £18. I recommend visiting this pub if you're in the area.
Loved the food especially the chicken wings basket and nachos. Drinks are cheaper than other places in Leamington though they have limited varieties in Gin. Overall vibe was good. Only improvement required in the table availability and table hygiene. They accept card payments.
