I have a lunchtime session in my local Wetherspoons with some friends in Shrewsbury and table service means we get served much more quickly. Before when you went to the bar you could get stuck behind a couple of old dears ordering meals and taking hours over it as they decided if they wanted chips or a jacket how they wanted their steaks cooked what sauce they wanted with it etc etc. Used to drive me up the wall. Prefer going to the bar in most pubs but Wetherspoons are always busy so table service has worked out better.
