Sometimes you just want to enjoy some food without being rushed out the door, told to perch on a high stool, or sit in a room that’s somehow colder inside than outside.
Say what you like about Wetherspoons, but at least they still seem committed to the radical idea of:
– having seats
– encouraging you to actually sit in them
– and keeping the heating on
It shouldn’t feel unusual. But in 2025, it’s practically a luxury.
