    Weston Grand Pier! Definitely Grand!
    We visited the pier and had some fish and chips. The views was breathtaking and you could see all around. The arcade was fun and the restaurant was lovely. Nice long walk down the pier on a Sunny Day. Only cost £1 admission which goes towards the maintenance of the pier.

    Well worth £1
    We were initially surprised when we had to pay to get on the pier however it was only £1 so not a lot. First time here and what a surprise there is so much to see and do, we only went for a look but the amount of amazing activities rides and shops that they have in there ensured that we stayed there for a while. They really do have something for everyone our only regret was that we didn’t have the grandkids with us as they would have loved it. Would love to return what a place

    Pier is a bit of a rip off
    You have to pay £1 every time you go on the pier, so if you go on it for an hour then leave and you want to go back, say 30 mins later its another pound. The two cafes at the end are nice with friendly and helpful staff. There is another cafe/restaurant at the end of the pier, but we did not use that ones. It looked nice though, called Tiffanys. My wife and two grown up children did the mirror maze on the second floor, opinion was, dont waste your money, its £2 each and only good for a couple of mins or so. Most arcaide games are £1 - £2 a go, there is also a small go kart track on the pier on the second floor.

    Interesting
    Enjoyed our 2 days spent on the pier. As it is a long pier, it was good that there was plenty seating on either side of the covered walkway. As it was the hottest week of the year (so far) when we went, the side of the pier in the shade was the busiest and most pleasant. Definitely worth the £1 entry fee to help with the upkeep of the historic pier

    Pretty average/poor
    Pretty average and not great value for money. We got the £15 wrist bands for our two children aged 10 and 12. They went on everything they could and weren’t overly impressed. Everything was either a bit broken or not working at all. The helter skelter didn’t really slide. The laser maze wasn’t working properly. Free fall was broken. And a lot of the other things were a bit young for them. Bumper cars were ok but they didn’t have them all on so they took up a big portion of the room on the floor. The arcade was much like any other arcade but the prizes in the 2p penny falls were rubbish. Not even kids would want them. Also the prizes for tickets were absolutely crap. We also paid for family mini golf which we did enjoy. Had lunch in the boardwalk cafe. Over priced and not that nice. Fish was ok but chips were hard and not fresh. Kids had chicken burgers that were dry. They over charged us and took ages to sort it out. In comparison to other similar attractions I’ve been to for a similar price there wasn’t as much to offer. All in all I wouldn’t bother coming back.

    Great fun!
    Great place. Ample parking spaces/loxations. I parked on the beach front. (£10 for all day or £6 for a few hours) Lots of ships, cafes on the beach front. £1 to enter the Grand pier. I prebooked wristbands for rides and brought money to use inside the pier - for the arcade rides etc. The wristbands cover some rides but not all. The pier is great, buzzing atmosphere and a good choice of rides. We are in Tiffany’s restaurant, which is located to the back and separate of the pier once you are inside the pier. Food in Tiffany’s was 10/10. You can easily spend all day here, combined with the beach entertainment.

    Massive lack of potential
    Like many others I was extremely upset when the old 30’s pavilion burnt down in July 2008 and watched every step of the rebuild with detail and excitement. It was lovely when it first reopened although I have never thought many of the rides were exiting enough for thrill seeking adults ( maybe only the now broken Robocoaster) and the ghost train is fairly good. I have never once saw all the outlets on the neck of the pier open which I always thought was a pity as there was even a bar originally. Then there was supposed to be a viewing tower at the end of the pier but sadly that never got beyond a dangerous (and unmarked) set of piles sticking out of the seabed. The surf ride along the roof never happened nor did the high speed ride that promised to whisk its riders at high speed along the neck of the pier. O and the amazing multi changing lights all over the pier never properly worked. I was so excited there was to be a bar as the old pavilion only had one for months before the fire although it always stayed open throughout the summer until 10pm. Sadly I have hardly ever had a drink on the pier as I am not a day time drinker and although I have had some lovely meals in the Tiffany room what a terrible waste it’s also not open on evenings as, BOTH the bar and the Tiffany room have their own entrances so the pavilion needn’t stay open. I believe the train isn’t running due to loose boards and lack of investment in the Joyces that support them. And on my last visit I was very saddened to see benches starting to rot and weeds and moss growing under them. Piers are such a British institution and a very special and unique part of our seaside heritage but they must be well maintained as without it they soon deteriorate and become unsafe, if not ran by a trust they must optimise every possible resource they can to make money and to invest as much as possible back into the structure. Please don’t let’s lose yet another one of our beloved piers to neglect.

    Amazing Value for Money
    Amazing Value for Money away day for all the family. There are so many activities for all age groups and the panoramic view of the horizon is unique. Well worth the £1 entry fee per person as all the activities and restaurants were competitively priced.

    Spur of the moment trip to Weston
    When I left it was a nice enough day, but started to rain as I got to Weston. The pier seemed a good place to go as it’s partly covered. It has a long walk up to the end. There’s a lot of slot machines and two penny shoves, kept me busy for a while. First floor has a restaurant and a shop. Bumper car ride too. I had a nice coffee in the cafe which looks out to the sea. Only drawback is parking, can turn out expensive.

Warning: this is NOT a traditional style seaside pier - the inside it tacky, overloaded with gimmicky rides which seems to be seeing little use, it's aged terribly in a short period of time (the original pier burnt down in 2008) there is a shabby weatherspoons style pub, alot of the attractions are overpriced unless you buy a wristband. I'm really surprised whoever rebuilt the grand pier didn't take into consideration how this would look in the future, even cheddar gorge is having somewhat of a re-brand & embracing it's history & art deco aesthetic which certainly helps with image through social media etc. Which instagram influencer wants to stand infront of a white, plastic looking monstrosity such as this? I don't have an issue with the £1 charge to get in, but I can imagine this would be a problem to families. This could've been a HUGE tourist destination if they'd have thought it through. Instead it looks like a run down shopping centre.

A nice looking pier with some good shops at the entrance a cafe at the end. It costs £1 to enter the pier which seems counter productive for all the businesses that are on the pier.

Went for a work Christmas party . Total waste of money . Food was terrible and not much of it . I’ve had grapes bigger than the potatoes on my plate . Nothing festive on the tables . Casino experience shockingly poor . Won’t ever be attending an event there again .

The pier has been rebuilt after a fire.

Lots of arcades inside and we treated the family to fish and chips.

I like the slot games

Ok, I get that it's 20th November, the season is over, but most of it is closed with machines etc shoved to one side and covered up. All and I mean all the swipe card options on anything that's actually plugged in and powered up don't work. Staff members are just walking around aimlessly!! You cannot even walk to the end of the pier for whatever reason, but it's rammed with cars and vans. I get that they are probably getting ready for Christmas, but it's so uninviting with most things not open or powered on. Call it a day, close the doors until you get your act together !!
