About This Pub

Ah, the Three Magnets in Letchworth – it's one of those reliable Wetherspoon spots that you can always count on for a good night out without spending a fortune. I love how it's right in the town centre, making it super convenient for a quick pint or a bite after wandering around. The place is spacious and feels fresh, with plenty of seating options that make it easy to settle in with friends. Drinks come out fast, and the staff really seem to have it together, which is always a plus when you're in the mood for a chat over a beer. It's got that welcoming feel too, perfect if you're popping in with the family for some straightforward English grub. On the downside, though, I've heard a few grumbles about the food not always living up to expectations – things like certain meals being reheated and served cold, which can really dampen the experience. Still, if you play it safe and stick to what they do well, it's a lovely spot for a casual catch-up. All in all, it's got its charms, but like any pub, it's not flawless, so keep that in mind for your next visit.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • It's a cracking spot for value for money, with affordable prices on a wide range of beers and food that won't break the bank.
  • The atmosphere is bright and welcoming, making it easy to find a seat, whether you're inside or out, and it's got that family-friendly vibe.
  • Staff are generally efficient and on the ball, serving drinks quickly and handling the bar like pros – it's a relief to see them keep things orderly.
Cons
  • Food quality can be a bit hit or miss; some dishes might turn up cold or lacking in flavour, like reheated options that don't quite hit the spot.
  • There are occasional slip-ups with service, such as not getting the full story on menu items until after you've paid, which can leave a sour taste.

Went for a dinner few nights ago and we ordered Indian chicken jalfrezi meal and fried halloumi burger. The food was atrocious. The waitress only bothered to tell us AFTER we had paid for it that the Indian food was reheat and eat. Served cold, no taste, sweet, chewy rice, laced with oil popadums! My burger was the smallest burger you'd imagine without any sauces, just the halloumi between the buns. The soft drinks were given to us before our food, which went flat, as soon as they'd arrived. For what we paid, you'd expect half a decent meal. Atmosphere was ok-ish for a weekday. Had a lady talking loudly on a video call behind us and other folk also being boisterous. I wouldn't return and that food should be binned than served to customers.

By far the nicest, cleanest Wetherspoons!!! The place is nice bright and welcoming. Found a booth easy enough there were plenty of seats inside and out. Drinks were great and got served quickly (the bar staff no how to work the bar and see who attends in what order and that's rare these days) The food was amazing, 3 of us ordered- fish and chips, all day brunch and the mixed grill and there was absolutely NOTHING to complain about, the food was served to the table boiling fresh and hot and tasted amazing....what more could you ask for! Well done, well and truly exceeded my expectations and some 👏🏼

Like it's chain, it was a cheap place to get English food (and drinks). We went to have brunch with family and kids. The food was okay, the usual English food. The employees were nice and helpful. The atmosphere was family friendly, the kids got a toy for 4£ something (that day it was 20% off).

I like to visit weatherspoon branches as I know what they have and their prices. This one in particular is in the town centre and really big. The same system to order online and not long to be served. This time food arrived first and we had to collect the drinks as nobody served and we could see the tray on the counter waiting ...apart of that as anecdotal part, the place was clean and comfortable.
