Monckton Munchies in Wakefield

Another very enjoyable meal, good selection on the menu for all tastes. Lovely team serving, with a warm welcome. Very nice pleasant surroundings. We will definitely be back.

It’s taken me a while to write this review as I am so disappointed. We were seated at 3pm when we saw the older waitress , Jackie , eating leftovers and drinking round the corner. Additionally she failed to bring us our mandatory bread which we also saw her eat.i would like it to be noted the rest of the staff were very helpful and polite. An argument broke out between one of the younger members of staff and Jackie and she was heard swearing and threatening to send other staff members home. This was completely inappropriate to do infornt of customers. After we finished our meal we requested tea and coffee. Once again Jackie was seen drinking tea at the tea station. Food was lovely , not sure I will return due to certain members of staff.

What an absolute gem The Angel is! As non-locals spoiled for choice, we were thrilled to stumble upon this standout for Sunday lunch. From start to finish, The Angel delivered an exceptional experience that ticked every box. The staff were warm, attentive, and professional, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The decor was tasteful and well-maintained, with a spotless dining area that set the tone for a delightful meal. The ambiance struck a perfect balance cozy yet refined, ideal for a relaxed Sunday. The food, however, was the true star. We kicked off with a shared scotch egg wrapped in black pudding, a dish that could easily go wrong but was executed flawlessly. The egg was perfectly cooked, the black pudding added a rich depth, and the accompanying small salad brought a fresh, vibrant contrast. It was a taste sensation, beautifully presented. For mains, we indulged in the Sunday roast, and wow what a feast! The towering, golden Yorkshire puddings were a sight to behold. I opted for the gammon, which melted in the mouth with every bite, while my partner chose the beef, equally tender and flavorful. The gammon, in my opinion, stole the show, cooked to perfection. The roast came with creamy mash, crispy roast potatoes, a generous selection of perfectly cooked vegetables, a stuffing ball, and rich, savory gravy. We were even treated to an extra gravy boat and checked on mid-meal to ensure we had enough, a thoughtful touch. I was over the moon when they offered mushy peas as an extra side. This addition made the meal even more special. After two drinks and with very full bellies, we left utterly satisfied. The portions were generous, the quality outstanding, and the price felt like excellent value for such a high-caliber experience. The Angel delivered a culinary delight and a memorable afternoon. Top marks, we can’t wait to share this information and all the very best for your futures.

Lovely warm welcome, great service & good food. Visited with a friend I ordered the full breakfast which was delicious (my egg was perfect 👌 ) my friend ordered pancakes with bacon & maple syrup which were also well cooked and delicious. Tea was nice & hot & plenty in teapot for two people, love the vintage style tea cups and saucers, we will definitely come back again.

Best fish and chips in the city.
