Bridge Inn in Wakefield

Great place family friendly. Pool table, darts. Freya was very attentive and looked after the needs required with food etc. The bar staff were great too.

Nice and cozy Amazing service from freya

Food was delicious, clear plates all round Thank you for great service from Freya and the team

We had a server named Freya, she was fantastic. Very attentive and friendly. She made sure we had everything we needed and was always around if we had any questions. Very impressed!

Bella and Amy were superb today! Really welcoming and interacting with the kids. They then did some crafting of Xmas decorations which killed time prior to eating. A lovely lunchtime thank you!

Great food,great open mic night, staff who were super attentive! Great pub!

A nice warm and cosy atmosphere with friendly staff good food what more do you need x

Good food and good service. Potions basic. Used the table code, not a fan due to personal preferences. Staff great though

Excellent food and service.Nice decor.

Came in Friday night for a meal. Shelley was on and her service was amazing. Food great.thanks nicole, who cooked my pizza:)

Amazing food and excellent service from Shelley. We will be back

Love this place always get a warm welcome and staff are lovely, especially Tyla ,can't do enough for you and is so friendly and helpful , we come here often food is lovely too never had a bad meal

brilliant food made by chef luke!!. Amazing place. Definitely will be going back again!!

I recently visited here with family the food was delicious and the staff were all friendly especially a lady called Shelly her customer service was second to none and went above and beyond to accommodate us. We will definitely be returning in the near future.

Great afternoon here with friends. The staff were great giving excellent service. Ellie-Mae really stood out looking after us. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was as nice too.

Had a brief visit not so long ago as I was passing through on my way back from work. Let’s just say the beer and service is so pleasant I’ll be telling the wife I’ll be “working overtime” most nights from now on!

Blown away by the level of service I received today at the Bridge Inn. Shelley went above and beyond to help me navigate the menu when faced with a lack of availability of the mixed grill. Thank you Shelley. You are a star. Cowboy burger was an excellent recommendation and you truly saved the day. I’ll be back again soon.

Lovely place to have a drink outside, right by the canal and the service is great. Our favourite server is Ben who is always quick to look after us.

I go here for a drink on a night and it’s always friendly just what you need after a long day. Pints are always cold and refreshing and Ben who’s normally behind the bar is a good laugh.

Lovely venue, staff were very kind and welcoming, made for a very nice atmosphere one of the staff Ben was also very kind and accommodating was good to me and my friends.

Great pint great atmosphere ben was amazing and made us feel welcome

I had a great time and Ben was amazing and very helpful with the customers. Very refreshing to see staff care about their jobs and put so much effort in.

Good place to go for sone food and a drink

Lovely atmosphere. Bar staff are really friendly. Leighton was super attentive! Even better in the summer.

Friendly informative bar staff. Lovely food with a great atmosphere Leighton

The food and service was lovely definitely be going back

Really nice friendly place to stop while cruising on a narrowboat, Moored up outside and had food and drink which was really good

Called in on our way to watch wakefield trinity ,great atmosphere but I think they underestimated how many people would be there as a lack of staff caused quite a long delay in being served but nice pub all in all

Bar staff were all incredibly friendly and polite. Food order was a little slow coming out but maybe due to large group just before us. Staff asked how our meal was and were very helpful when I spilt my drink. Also heard the manager deal very politely and correctly with a ridiculous complaint from another group of visitors . .

Amy and Bella were amazing had great customer service

I booked a table for 9 for Sunday lunch 6 weeks ago so imagine my disappointment when we arrived yesterday to find the Sunday menu wasn't available and hadn't been for weeks. Why on earth wasn't I informed about this? This information wasn't on your website or your Facebook or your Instagram. Having booked a table I would have expected an email to let me know Sunday lunch wasn't available. Obviously booking for 1pm on a Sunday we were expecting the Sunday lunch menu that is shown on the website. The manager on duty apologised but this is not good enough, I would have liked to be offered a free drink or dessert to make up for it. I will not be recommending The Bridge Inn to anybody and we will not be returning.

Lovely place. Staff really friendly and food great!

Not been in for a while so popped in yesterday. We were really impressed. I think there’s been a manager change? as all the staff were really attentive and helpful. The food was really tasty and good vfm. Even found room for dessert. We won’t leave it long to visit again. Can recommend.

A lovely place, food can be hit and miss but ok for price. Sometimes service slow even when not busy. Particularly like sitting out by the canal in good weather. Very spacious and easy free parking

Delicious food, reasonably priced, and staff very polite and helpful. Shelly was very professional.

I had space and privacy to visit with colleagues. Coffee and food delivered to my table with care and courtesy. Shelley (I believe her names was) could not have made us feel more welcome.

Shelly made our stay pleasant very welcoming,

Food/ drink were expensive. Food was not a good standard. Lasagne was very small bowl, 1 layer of lasagne, rest was meat sauce with cheese on the top. Salad consisted of lettuce and onions. No dressing. Partner had the smallest piece of chicken wrapped in bacon, with about 29 chips, salad consisting of lettuce and onions, no dressing, adked for dressing brought enough for 1 person. When we went to the bar to place the order, as we had signed up and received a 30 % off voucher, staff did not know what we were talking about !! Took me to show them online and the voucher I had received!!!

We come monday evenings and its great to have a chat with the staff, its become a weekly thing, bella i think shes called always looks after us. We look forward to it each week.

We took our family out to celebrate our Grandson’s Birthday . Shelley was our server throughout the afternoon. She was V. Good . Looked after us all . Helped with Drinks and food menus, managed to help make a fuss of the birthday boy . Thanks Shelley

We went in afew weeks ago and it was amazing however today when we went in for lunch we were told the 3 meals that we ordered were not available. Staff were apologetic. Can’t comment on the food.

Been in here numerous times , always friendly staff, great food and great service 👍

I attend every week to play poker, the service is always great, bar staff are brilliant especially Shelley.&amy Tonight I had the cowboy burger which was really tasty thanks to Nicole in the kitchen

Great service by Shelley. I have been coming here for a number of years and every time food, atmosphere and service has been great. Family came to visit and first time brought dog with us, staff were very attentive.

Sadly, another disappointing meal at The Bridge Inn. This place used to be fantastic, but over the past year, it’s really gone downhill. Our last five visits have left us frustrated—either waiting far too long for our food, even on quiet days, or receiving inconsistent versions of the same dish. As you can see from the attached photo, the pepperoni pizza was a letdown: it was mostly tomato sauce with barely any cheese, and what was there looked off. Definitely not what it used to be. Regrettably, we won’t be returning.

Forgot to write a review a few weeks back but just found the card , Shelly was very helpful , attentive and delivered customer centred care to me & Jemaine who I support. Thankyou so much Shelly , what a lovely caring person you are 💖

Leighton is one of staff here he recommended a delicious pizza. Sound friendly lad and good place to go for a beer

Very welcoming and friendly Shelley was very helpful and a right laugh

This has become our regular for date nights/days. The staff are lovely and food is beaut! Amazing atmosphere. Leighton is one of staff and provided quality service! Definitely recommend coming here! :)

Shelley is such a lovely bar staff member, and the pub has a great atmosphere. We love it xx

Does exactly what it says on the tin and fantastic service from Shelly whilst my girls and I sheltered from the rain for lunch. She was fantastic with my 2 daughters and went out her way to make sure we had a great time.

Very friendly staff and gorgeous food, Shelley served us today and was super friendly

Waited an hour for food and when it came it was wrong

Came for lunch before the rugby shelley was very polite and helpful thank you

Food delivery was slow and meals were served individually so out of the 8 the last person probably waited an additional 15 min for food. The food was barely warm-some was cold and was average at best. Chicken wrap almost £15 for 3 tiny pieces of chicken. Won’t be returning

Food was cold, food order was wrong and Sunday food uncooked

Hosted my daughter 4th bday meal here staff was really supportive and helped with any question and query’s, defo recommend if u want a family get together

Thought it was very good. If you like sport or want a quite corner it has both . Guinness was good I was surprised sure I was charged more for first pint £5:50. 2 one £5 :15. I should have challenged this . Food menus looked ok possibly average price now . Ok for dog walkers you can sit out looking at river . Good outdoor area .

We had my daughters 4th birthday meal here, booked/reserved our table for 22. The staffs service was amazing and helpful. We came in with a preorder of food/drinks to give the chefs and bar staff an idea of what we was getting. They were very patient and just amazing all the way through. Food and drinks were good. But honestly can’t stop praising the staff. Although they had been busy still managed to find the time to talk and have conversations with us and they even played a happy birthday song as we was going round with the cake for her. Definitely booking here again next year for her 5th birthday

Brilliant place, staff super friendly and beautiful setting. Thanks to Ellie for looking after us so well 😁

Shelley was absolutely amazing behind the bar, exceptional customer service and all around a lovely personality and face to walk in to when having a drink !!!!!!!!!!!!

Shelly behind the bar is amazing! So good desrves a raise

Fantastic place, staff are friendly and helpful. We were served by Shelley, and she couldn't do enough for us. Will definitely recommend and be back 🙂

This is a nice pub, nice location. Staff are really helpful and friendly. Shame about the food, it looks nice but it's just awful

Came for charity bingo, fab night!! Shelley is so helpful when we call in :) Great team 👏

Massive improvement since the new manager has taken over, the food quality has definitely improved and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The under cover area is now heated and the river view also has an undercover area.👍👍👍

We were served by Shellay, played darts few drinks was lovely ☺️

This pub is welcoming and all the staff have always been friendly and the food is pretty good. I was served by shelley and she is lovely and friendly and deserves a mention ☺️

Staff are so friendly and helpfull food is excelent never had any issues everytime we have come

Very helpful staff especially Shelley my partner is Gluten Intolerant and she made sure she felt confident in ordering and enjoying her meal. The food was absolutely delicious and the hand pulled Pedigree was delightful. I will definitely be back again.

We visited on Monday 9/09/09 at lunch time, there was no chef and only 1 bar staff. She explained this was due to staff sickness which is unavoidable so we waited for a chef to arrive but then there were a few dishes we wanted that weren't available. This is unavoidable but we chose something else, I thought for the price the portions were quite small. The you lady behind the bar, Tyla, was very apologetic and was rushed off her feet but she was lovely and coped very well.

Friendly helpful staff. Great beer 🍺 so says Andrew!!! He had the Pedigree… Both of us had the Cowboy burger mine GF Asked for the bun not to be toasted, but it seemed to have been. Called the manager Shelley over, who was really helpful. Brought me a new roll. And explained it was how they defrosted it. I suggested in future GF burger orders. That the bun is left to defrost naturally, while the burgers are cooking. As the bread goes too hard to eat, and I value my teeth 🦷 We will be back

Staff are always lovely, food is always consistent and really well price & tasty!

Brilliant experience. Comfortable. Dog friendly. Fantastic bar staff and waitress from Shelley.

We went for steak night, they didn't have the steak left so opted for gammon and it was ok. You get what you pay for, I didn't expect anything amazing but we were hungry and out so went there. Can't complain but can't rave about it

Great arrive and friendly staff. Food was great as well. Highly recommended 👍

Reserved a table only to arrive and someone was sat there. Took around 15mins to get a drink has only 1 bartender on. When we was finally seated we choose what food we wanted only to be told half the menu wasn’t available because they had no food. We ended up walking out and going somewhere else. I won’t be going again. They need to get themselves organised.

Very clean with a lovely atmosphere. Friendly staff make you feel very welcome. Lovely pub food. Although our order wasn't right. It was swiftly corrected. We had a very enjoyable meal, lasagne and steak in ale pie. Large bar and variety of drinks. Separate bar area if not eating. Pool table available for those who prefer a drink on the side. Sky sports for the sports fans. Fantastic outdoor beer garden with views over the canal.

The staff is really amazing like Shelley she has done such amazing help especially serving me and my mum I would definitely recommend coming here when you can know that they make you feel welcomed I have been coming here since I was like a kid always loved it here even right this place hasn't changed at all even tho a lot has been changed here but everyone else is still same since the day I was coming here especially the food is really good here always good way to have your time here they even got a pool table here especially a lot of good drinks

The place was not busy and the weather was great so we were very pleased that we were able to get a table outside with a great view of the canal that runs by the Inn. There are lots of tables outside, and we’ll spaced out, so even if it was busy it would not feel “crowded”. There is level access for wheelchair users both in to the lounge/bar area, or round the outside to the area that overlooks the canal. Though we did not need it this time there are times when we have to use a wheelchair so this is great for us. The staff were very friendly, the service was good, there is plenty of food options and we really enjoyed the food that we ordered. It was great being able to use the online order service to order the food and drinks without either waiting for someone to come and serve us or go into the bar area to place the order. It's also great to be able to pay for the food when we order it which means we can leave whenever we want and not have to wait for the bill. There were only a few minor things that could be improved: 1. The menus that we were given when we arrived had food items that did not appear in the online order system (main meals and desserts). Fortunately we did not want any of the main meal options that were not available online but I did have to go into the bar area to order the desserts because one of the desserts we wanted was not available online but was available for in-person orders. 2. One main meal stated that it came with half a grilled tomato, but the meal arrived with two quarters of an uncooked tomato. Not a big deal but it’s much better if everything on the plate is as per the menu. 3. Another meal (chicken burger) came with bacon though the menu did not mention anything about bacon. Again, not an issue for us as we could simply remove the bacon but could have been a problem to others. Items 2 and 3 were brought to the attention of a member of the staff (not as a complaint but just so that they were aware in case some training was required) and he apologised and did say that they had a new person working in the kitchen who was still learning, so this would be pointed out as part of their training. Point 1 is something that HQ need to work on to ensure that the options available online for a specific restaurant are exactly what is available on the restaurant's “paper” menus. However, in spite of the above 3 points, and because of all the other positives, we will definitely be going back to this venue, especially when the weather is nice!

Nice atmosphere and location. Second time I have had food there and it was delicious both times.

Love this place! Cozy and the staff are so friendly! TYLA IS A SUPER STAR❤️❤️❤️❤️

Pleasant enough experience for a quick bite and a chin wag, good selection of AF drinks, quick service. Food was ok

Always pleasant to visit The Bridge Inn. The pub has a modern feel to it but in a welcoming sort of way, and outside seating overlooks the canal which is lovely on a hot day. Food is also tasty - ordered the cheese burger and found it to be very satisfying for a reasonable price, and the sauce that comes with the burger is heavenly. Will miss coming here as a Wakefield AFC fan, but it will remain on my radar as an excellent pub.

Had a great afternoon, once again the food was lovely, the staff were brilliant as always and even more so with the granddaughter who was having a meltdown, thank you to all involved, for helping in this situation and not making us feel uncomfortable or unwelcome, I will definitely recommend and will definitely be back. Thank you.

Lovely staff always friendly, foods nice and a nice outside area for the summer

Went for a spontaneous lunch out and was served by Martin and Shelly. Martin was very helpful navigating allergies and the allergy menu, and also gave us some hot water to heat up food for the baby. Shelly was friendly and funny and stopped for a chat, and was attentive and polite to us and the other customers. Really really lovely meal out and we'll definitely be back!

Staff are lovely and polite definitely be back soon

Called in on Thursday night, we ordered fish n chips plus a Thai curry ( with prawns @ £2 extra ) But they had run out of fish so asked for a tikka masala instead, it should have arrived with mango chutney but didn't & the Thai curry only had 7 tiny prawns. The Thai curry was supposed to have lemongrass, bamboo shoots & other exotic ingredients but it was more like a jar of thai sauce from the £1 shop. The beer was ok but we certainly won't be rushing back for the food.

We live on a narrowboat and had visited The Bridge Inn a couple of weeks ago, for dinner and drinks, with our 11-year-old grandson. All was great then. This time we visited with an Australian visit, again for dinner and drinks, and enjoyed the quiz night (which was fun thank you). My husband and our guest chose the steak and drink meal deal, which they thoroughly enjoyed. I chose the vegetarian chilli - thankfully not because I'm vegetarian but it sounded delicious with lots of accompaniments. When it was delivered, it didn't look like a vegetarian chilli. I asked the young man serving it if it really was a vegetarian chilli, and he said "yes". I asked him what the strange vegetables were, he said he didn't know. I proceeded to start eating and discovered it was, in fact, a chicken tikka masala! By this time I was ravenous, so didn't bother calling him back to tell him and get it changed. Plus I'm always wary of sending food back! Next time I saw him, I said that it was indeed a chicken curry - he said oh yes sorry, that was my fault. I asked how it was his fault. He said he'd picked up the wrong one, and gave my vegetable curry to the person who ordered the chicken curry! There's was never any offer of a change, which I thought rather strange. Anyway, mistakes happen, and the chicken curry was tasty though distinctly lacking in any vegetables ;-)

visited with my husband and brother in law for lunch. very busy atmosphere owing to Leeds utd match being shown live on tele (good for us as we are also leeds fans). Ordered drinks on entry and shown to our reserved table straight away. Advised up front that there was a 45min delay on food, we didn't mind as not in a hurry. Ordered and paid for food, then watched football while waiting. Starters brought out after 30 mins, the mushrooms were delicious 😋 main courses served immediately following the starters being cleared away. I had chicken tikka masala, which was lovely, my only issue was my poppadom was not cooked properly, the young lady looking after us immediately informed the kitchen who sent a new one straight out, which was done perfectly. All in all a lovely lunch, thankyou.

Was really happy with the service and the food was amazing

Brilliant service and lovely food. Slowing working my way through new menu item and all lovely so far!

The bridge inn offers great food and drinks at a fair place. The pub is always clean and staff always friendly. The newly launched menu is great.

Always nice food good something always missing from menu but still good choice

Had a great weekend catching up with friends from school, bar was very accommodating and a great Manager in Martin was very attentive and had a great memory for the round of drinks we had

served by shelley lovely service and very helpful

Lovely service from the Bridge Inn as always. All the team; Shelley and Armani out front and Beth and Nicole in the kitchen were very friendly and made my day. The food was lovely and tasty, they also had a few alcohol free options to choose from which was really surprising. Will definitely be back for a Gordon’s 0%!!

Brilliant bar, loved every minute in The Bridge! Staff are welcoming and atmosphere is warm! Drinks cold, fresh and great quality! Food was tasty! Worth it if you’re in for a few drinks and a good time!

Lovely friendly staff, can't fault them. We came on an extremely busy Wakefield trinity right match day. This meant the pub was really busy and the wait for food was long. But they were honest and up front about the wait from the start. The staff were under alot of stress but kept a very friendly and smiley front and could not be more pleasant in a very tense time. The food was lovely and they were very helpful when I explained about my food intolerances. This goes a long way to making my experience alot more comfortable. It means alot that they take care and show alot of understanding to ensure we feel safe eating. Will definitely return
