The food left a lot to be desperate the haddock was far from good the batter on the fish was not crunchy or crisp the best was the mushy peas. The service was fine. Would I return I don't think

It's a Witherspoon, so you know exactly what you are getting - incredible value and consistent food.Very big and never had a problem getting a table even when busy.With the app, you get your drinks faster than going to the bar too.

Great place to have a casual meal and drink. Meal was of the usual good quality. Good selection of drinks. Venue makes great use of MacIntosh style décor and full of memorabilia photos of Helensburgh in the distant past. Busy (for a Wed evening) but there's always plenty of space. Wetherspoon's seems to have cleaned up its act, literally, so everywhere very clean and hygienic. Prices are very, very competitive, as ever. Staff helpful and very pleasant. Recommended.

Waited a long time stood about with children table was full of plates bowls drinks ect.. food all over the table and floor I asked several times for a member of staff if they'd clear table. Nodded and never moved a thing I then moved it all myself and asked manager if she'd wipe it. Well I wouldn't have bothered and as a manager she didn't care at all. We eventually got our order placed and that was wrong we ordered 3 kids meals and only got the pizza nothing else mum asked manager why we never got all stuff supposed to with kids meal she then said it costs extra I'm definitely not coming again the pizza was cold when it came too

Cheap and cheerful. Always good value. Food was well prepared and tasty. Serving staff were helpful and efficient. Spotless loos. Decor not as nice as some Wetherspoons but still pleasant.

I'm not a fan of 'Spoons' but this pub has lots of art deco/Charles Rennie Mackintosh touches in it's interior decor. They serve food late, which suited us perfectly. Service was friendly & efficient with tasty food & drink at a very reasonable price.

Good old Wetherspoons. Very, very hard to beat their no nonsense food and a drink deals. The chain has come on leaps and bounds over the years from seedy cheap drink dives to more family orientated establishments. My only criticism is the Henry Bell, Helensburgh air conditioning is far too cool. I wish I'd worn a fleece. The food went cold too quickly too with the constant cold air flow.

Breakfast? No table service, order online with app or order at counter. Supermarket style white toast only so I just got scrambled eggs. They arrived swimming in water. Yuck! And the waitperson brought my husband the wrong order. We won?t be coming back.

Ordered online and the service was very quick. The burgers were very tasty and well cooked. We were went for lunch and the place was not at all crowded with a pleasant atmosphere.To me, it looks like the pub interior was inspired by the Charles Rennie Mackintosh's domestic masterpiece at The Hill House (National Trust) nearby in Helensburgh, which is currently under the drying out phase prior to restoration or not yet to be confirmed.I would recommend visiting both The Hill House interion and the pub interior to witness both the historic inspiration and the modern take on it.

Where you go to drink cheap alcohol and food. No other reason springs to mind to me; and as you can see from the pictures, the gristle on the steak (ordered as rare and came as blue) has to have some kind of award. For goodness sake chef, I mean cook, if you see this, substitute it with a decent one and fling the reject back to your supplier.Incidentally, using the app gives you some idea of how approaching a black hole slows time down. Start using it as an 18yo and by the time the order is completed online, you can draw a state pension to pay for it.On the upside, the booze is so cheap, I can get drunk and forget the experience before I leave.
