About this place Jolly’s Hotel

Jolly's Hotel is a J D Wetherspoon pub with guest rooms on Gray Street in Broughty Ferry, the seaside suburb east of Dundee city centre. It is gay-friendly mainstream, not a gay venue. Expect the usual Wetherspoon set-up: cheap food and drink served all day downstairs, with plain, budget hotel rooms upstairs. The beach, the castle and the harbour are a few minutes' walk. Central Dundee is about 15 minutes by bus or train. The bar can be loud on weekend evenings, which matters if your room is above it. Google rating is 4.0 from about 2,150 reviews.

Only went in for food! Tables were dirty, food was extremely poor. Had the all day brunch, sausage was tasteless,eggs burnt and bacon like leather! Only decent part was the chips which I looked at and thought dont fancy them and the beans! Had a pint of Budweiser and if that was Budweiser it must have been bottom of barrel or something? Totally flat and tasteless! Won't be back and commented to my daughter if I'd known before we went in it was wetherspoons I would have gone elsewhere!

I’m writing to complain about this Wetherspoons because my mom and stepfather have been treated poorly here several times, and today things really went too far. Every time we’ve visited, the tables have been dirty; today, my brother actually had to flag down a staff member to get our table cleaned. As for the food, there were issues there too: my parents ordered at the bar, but they didn't mention right away that they were out of what I wanted. I had asked for a pepperoni pizza, but after a long wait, a guy came over and told me they didn't have any, so I ended up ordering fish and chips instead. I was left waiting ages for my food to arrive—the service was terrible. The only saving grace was the guy who brought out the fish and chips; he apologized to my parents three times. Otherwise, the place was a disaster—I wouldn't recommend it.

A really useful location. Good and quick service the top spoons out the ones visited. Plenty of locals and families here good to see.
