Asquiths Fish & chips in Wakefield

UPDATED April 2025 - much better experience in 2025 - food better quality tables cleared & more staff - much improved from 2024. 2024 Awful experience, it used to be nice but the last 2 visits have been very poor. Tables were dirty, I used hand wipes to clean our table as it was covered in spilled drinks & food debris, we ended up moving tables to a larger table as there was 5 of us - had to move dirty glasses & food plates and clean the table again, vinegar & sauce bottles sticky & not clean, food on the floor. We ordered our food, 2 currys, chicken burger, american burger & pasta. Most of the food was warm rather than hot, the rice was stuck together in clumps & unpleasant, poppadoms were dripping in grease & naan was hard, curry not hot. None of our group enjoyed the food - very poor quality & not what we have normally experienced in other Wetherspoon pubs. My daughters partner was sick later that night probably from the chicken burger that was not fully warmed through. We won't be returning - really sad that pub this has deteriorated so much.

Use to call in here years ago for a carvery and was hard to get a seat. Not any more places was empty. The staff great carvery very disappointed meats ok but the vegetables tasted like they were frozen put in a steam oven then served. Will Not Be Calling Again. Very poor show.

Good pub, huge choice of beers for beer lovers, they are excellent and cheaper than in France. I haven't tried the cooking unfortunately, but I don't like the food in supermarkets like Sainsbury's, too much fat, too much processed food, white bread, disgusting pastries full of sugar everywhere. I've seen a lot of obese English people. I'm not surprised given the food on offer, very hard for vegetarians or vegans.

Starting to dislike the menu screens. If you're not a seasoned visitor, it's difficult to see what's on offer as the screens are forever changing. At least have one static screen showing what's available. Needs some window shades for the sun, when the sun is shining that is

Food is really good here best kebab around however service really let's it down only excepts orders when they feel like it. Last time I ordered it took 2 hours tonight there just not excepting orders not reliable at all.
