At £9.10 prawn/smoked salmon starter one of the worst I’ve had. . Poor quality prawns, think they’d forgotten the smoked salmon and mainly salad. Son had fish and chips. Awful dark coloured greasy chips and poor quality fish. Salmon main course at £21.95 was ok except for the hollandaise , thick consistency. No fish pie on either. Would have complained but as it was my husband’s birthday didn’t want to make a fuss! Very disappointing meal after previous visit.

We’ve come here quite often but this time spoiled the mood, Great atmosphere as always, only problem was some of the food was laced with too much salt, someone needs to be having a word with the chef !!. rather spoiled the evening

Disappointing experience today. Have been many times and always been good. We ordered lasagne which was only ok, nothing great, but the chips were awful. Dark brown, greasy and not even chips, just bits of potato. A complaint was made to 2 members of staff who weren't bothered in the slightest. No apology, no offer of an exchange, no interest in putting it right. At £15.95 for each meal, I expected better.

Second visit and both times the food has really been excellent, above gastro pub standard. First visit I tried the surf and turf, the steak was done just as requested and melted in the mouth, really good steak. Second visit and tried the fish and chips, the haddock , very tasty and the batter crispy, done just right. Dessert was a cheesecake, home made and delicious with cream. Service was superb both times. The meals looked great on the plate. Well presented and tasted as good. The style is a higher level than just pub grub with simple tables, it is all nicely set out, tables where you feel you can have a nice cosy meal. So to the only negative. At a table near by, a guest, who appeared to be a friend or relative of one of the staff, a chef I think, decided to have a loud video call at their table for about 10 to 15 minutes, could hear every word as did half the place, which wasn’t in keeping with the restaurant we think they are selling it as. The call was disturbed by their food arriving, that seemed the only thing that stopped it, the staff didn’t say anything. Thank heaven for the food and at last back to normal and the ambiance returned. It won’t put us off but that wasn’t in keeping with what the restaurant is sold as. Great food, great service, definite for another visit, hence the 5 stars.

The word homemade is used time and time again and it is obvious sometimes that it isn’t. However, at The Railway everything is definitely homemade. We all had different dishes and each and every one was wonderful. We had: salmon fillet, chicken Kiev, Railway Burger, Southern Fried Chicken Burger and Lamb Suet pudding (which was melt in the mouth gorgeous). A lovely atmosphere and wonderful friendly staff. This was our first visit but definitely won’t be our last. I can highly recommend this place if you want fantastic quality home cooked meals.

Very friendly atmosphere and excellent staff, who even asked whether anyone had any allergies! Nothing was too much for the two ladies who served us. Quite an extensive menu, with smaller plates for those with a smaller appetite. The food was excellent, warm and very well presented. We would recommend this to our friends. A choice of three hand pulled beer, Timothy Taylor’s Landlord and Dizzy blond. I don’t remember the third. I chose the Dizzy blonde and it was ok.

It was a wet, miserable Saturday afternoon when we visited to have dinner with family. It had been recommended so our expectations were high and we were not disappointed. The large and varied menu offered enough choice to suit a wide range of palates. The portions too were very generous. You won't leave here hungry! 'Homemade' is a phrase that features a lot in this menu and here it reflects in the well cooked tasty fare that appears on the plate. A companion had the Yorkshire pudding starter, the size of a plate, which came with lashings of gravy. It looked so good I ordered a small one as a side for my own main meal. I had potato skins as a starter topped with bacon and cheese. More like a full small baked potato that skins. But good none the less. I was a little wary but tried the deep fried battered black pudding one of our party ordered and surprising this was very good. Our other two companions had been here before and sensibly saved themselves for the main courses. Two of us had Suet lamb pudding. A large portions packed with tasty chunks of lamb. You had the choice of chips or mash with these. I chose the chips (homemade and scrumptious). We asked for extra gravy and it came in little jugs. The whole was served with a range of vegetables that were well cooked and presented. Two of our other companions had the strips of beef in a peppercorn sauce. The meat was declared to be soft and tasty. The sauce has a little more to it that the average peppercorn sauce that comes as a side with a steak which was a positive addition to this dish. You get a choice of carbs too one chose rice the other half and half (Rice and Chips) The other party member had a Yorkshire Pudding wrap. There's a choice of roast meats to wrap the pudding around our diner chose beef. Again these come with a choice of sides. They both looked and were pronounced very good. Three of us went for a crème Brule for dessert, one for ice cream and the other stated they were too full. the ice-cream was pretty average and I think the Crème Brule although tasty would have been better served in a smaller deeper dish. The only issue I would have is the £2 charge for a small bread roll and butter. We didn't have any but if it stands up to the quality of the rest of the food served, who knows maybe they are value for money. I would definitely recommend for a wholesome, unpretentious family meal out.

Was very disappointed that the railway wouldn't take my booking for my husbands birthday 😒 we had 9 adults and 2 children wanting to celebrate his birthday and they said they would not take a booking for more than 6 inclusive of children? Not even 2 tables of 5 and a high chair??? I asked if this was Company policy and he advised that " it wasn't fair on the kitchen staff as there was 2 menus on a Sunday??? As a ex licensee I would have been very happy with a booking for well over £100 especially after Covid. Well we have got somewhere else to celebrate that will accommodate all my family together .

Very disappointed after been here on three previous occasions. My partners food the nachos were all burnt round the edges they replaced it no problem. I had the surf and turf tried to cut the steak with a normal knife as the waiter never bothered to introduce a steak knife the chips were not good the gardens peas were microwaved.it’s a Shame because we liked it here maybe they have changed the chef.but we will not be back for food

What a fantastic place! Went with family for lunch. No table booked but they squeezed us in. It was busy and this was a Monday! All the mains homemade. My girlfriend had what she said was the best sea food pie in her life. I had the steak pie with homemade chips. They do giant Yorkshire puddings as big as a plate! I honestly could have eaten everything in the menu. Friendly staff and quick service. Highly recommended.

The service was excellent ----- we were all served within minutes of each other .The range of meals we had chosen was everything from the corned beef hash pie ( very popular ) to cod and chips and chickpea curry . Everyone cleared their plate . We loved it so much that we are now planning to come here for our Christmas meal . Excellent food , value for money , excellent staff . Highly recommended .

Called in for some lunch and was so disappointed. The food was just awful, so unappealing to the eye as well. It was like slop on a plate, no seasoning and everything seems to be covered in cooking oil. I hardly ate anything and my stomach was so bloated due to the amount of oil that was on the food. Drinks were good and the place is spotlessly clean but unfortunately the food is disgusting.

Booked ahead as there were nine of us eating. We got there 10 minutes early, but our table was ready and it wasn’t a problem. The food was delicious, with generous portions and pretty good value for money, taking into account the recent all round price rises. Special mention to Leanne who looked after us while we were there - she made us feel welcome and was just how you’d want a waitress to be.

We had our mains and desserts from the board which were just perfect Service was first class This is our “local” from Birkenshaw and as I said to my wife “ why do we bother going elsewhere when dining out?

It had been quite a few years since we last ate at The Railway but we were not disappointed. We hadn’t booked but a table was available. From start to finish all the staff were friendly and helpful. We sat in a cosy corner near the fire and ordered 2 Sunday lunches, I had chicken and my husband beef. We both said it was the best Sunday lunch we’d had. Very tasty, good portions, just excellent. The Yorkshire puddings were to die for. It was busy but there was plenty of room and space. We will definitely return.

We have met friends here for a meal on a number of occasions and it has been lovely. However last night we had a different experience and whilst it was busy, this was similar to previous visits. We had reserved a table for 5 a number of weeks ago and when we arrived we given a table set out for 7 which consisted of an oblong table with a round one pushed up to it which felt awkward for our group. The waiter took our drinks order and 4 of the 5 drinks arrived quickly. The other one, a cup of tea, seemed to have been forgotten. We asked about it and it arrived 15mins later. The food came as ordered. My husband chose the giant yorkshire pudding for a starter and he loved it. He then had meat and potato pie with a thick shortcrust pastry lid for his main. The filling consisted of mainly undercooked and underseasoned potato. The pastry was definitely thick but rather unpleasant and again underseasoned. I chose the chicken cordon bleu off the specials board which was quite nice, but the dijon mustard sauce which accompanied it was virtually tasteless. For dessert we both ordered the bakewell tart with custard. The custard had the consistency of water and was overly sweet, quite the oddest custard I've ever had. I struggled on with it but my husband sent his back and got ice cream instead. No explanation was given about why the custard was so thin. As we'd had such lovely food on previous visits it left us wondering why it was so disappointing this time round.

I have just visited this establishment for lunch (pre-booked) with 7 colleagues, it is a venue we as a company use regularly for staff meals and on occasion overseas visitors.Prior to today I can only speak highly of both the staff and the food. However my experience today would make me think about ever returning.I was delivered a lasagna consisting of two sheets of pasta and some warm tasteless, almost meatless sauce.First interaction with what I later found was the floor manager was pointless. I commented that the portion size was poor. He told me he would talk to someone.After 10 minutes nothing happened.When subsequently asked by a waitress if all was ok I said no, it was hideous. Her response was to laugh. When I told her I wasn't joking she left to speak to the kitchen.Some 10 minutes later the same waitress asked if we were finished and if all was ok. I responded that it wasn't and I was still waiting feedback. I was told she was busy but would now talk to the chef.Final interaction with the floor manager. He asked me if there was a problem. I repeated what I said, we had a discussion about the menu and that the previous 6 servings of the product were ok as no one had complained. I was then told the waitress was upset and in tears because I had sworn at her. This, as my colleagues reaffirmed was totally untrue. This upset me immensely, my only complaint was that the food was poor and the portion size not good.On leaving I tried to have a discussion with who I thought was the manager (my mistake) to try resolve the problem as we regularly use this pub.However I was told the manager was the gentleman i had spoken to twice before who clearly was not interested in solving the problem and believed I had sworn at the waitress.I am very disappointed with this entire experience, the answer to a customer concern is not to ignore it (other than not charge for the dreadful meal) and believe some made up nonsense about a regular repeat customer.

This pub is always busy, with lots of people eating.Three of us dined there on Sunday teatime, and there is a great choice of food for everyone. I had the Marie Rose Salad which had lots of prawns on. The other guests had the Sunday dinner, and Meat and Potato pie. After a starter of large Yorkshire Pudding we had to force ourselves to have a pudding. I did feel that the Ginger Sponge was a little bit doughy but it still tasted very nice.Two of us had alcoholic drinks, the other just soft drinks our meal came to just over £76.

I had a large Yorkshire pudding with chicken breast and sides of mashed potatoes and vegetables and my wife had small portion of lamb suet pudding. We shared a treacle sponge for dessert. The food and service was very good. The only thing I did not like was the chipolata in my pudding which was a surprise as I don't eat pork.

We make this a regular for lunch. Why? Great menu of standard pub grub with extensive options in the menu. Good choice of ales, beers and gins. Friendly attentive staff. Good value for money.

Lovely food BUT a large glass of red wine went over me at the start of the night. Not one person from management came to speak to me The waiter was so sorry but that’s it! My clothes covered in red wine and I was soaked. So...... lovely food but management happy to hope you won’t speak about it

Good, no-frills food. Roast dinner was excellent - nice meat. Desserts also good. Home-made bread and butter pudding was very good. Outstanding value for money.

It’s best to book at The Railway, especially on a weekend. We dined there on Saturday evening and the place was full. They usually have two or three guest ales on the go. We ordered the soup starter, which was home made Mushroom soup was good, it was served in small bowls however there was enough. For the mains I had Haddock and chips, which was served hot and the haddock was a good size. My friend had a special, New York Corned Beef Hash, which was served with a fried egg on the top. We shared a dessert of Banoffee pie as we were quite full at this stage. This was simple but satisfying. I had a few pints of Timothy Taylor’s Landlord, which was a good pale ale to wash it all down. This pub is not part of a chain, the food is home cooked to a good standard. I visit this place regularly and can recommend it as a good local pub.

This place ticks every box. Probably the nearest you will get a to a proper country pub on the suburbs. Great home cooked food.

Called today for a late lunch, and it was delicious. Haggis suet pudding with mash and veg off the specials board for me and pie and chips with plenty of gravy for Mrs M. We have never been disappointed when eating here. Good quality home cooked food, pleasant staff, and well priced.

Visited the railway inn today and sadly regret it. Ordered the corned beef hash special, only to be told they had run out. Why didn't they inform of what was and wasn't available to begin with. We then both ordered the ham, chips and eggs!! Well, you wouldn't think to much could go wrong with this simple request. CHIPS were uncooked and the gammon was grey / green in colour. We sent them back only to be confronted by a very rude little man with some old hag, presumably the landlady muttering and giving out dirty looks. The man suggested to my wife that she looked elsewhere to eat in future as he remembered her complaining before on some far distant previous occasion. I've had 3 meals there and all have been disappointing!Today just was vile and left us feeling poorly. The gammon was green and smelt bad. Wake up before you kill someone. Reporting this place to EHO and beyond. They should not be trading and the rude guy that spoke to us in that manner should not be in the hospitality industry. Not sure where he should be, come to think of it.

We’ve been to the railway a few times now on Sundays so and always enjoy the food, the Sunday dinner is lovely generous portions too, lots of choice on the menu and it’s always busy which shows how popular it is, even though it’s busy the service is efficient and the waiters are professional and friendly.

Very disappointed in the Railway last night. Ordered steak strip in pepper sauce with rice. Was told they had run out of rice. What restaurant runs out of a staple like rice?? Had to have it with chips. Ruined my meal.

Visited the Railway as a change of scenery we ordered the gammon, what a great meal cooked to perfection. The only negative was the very noisy customers stood at the bar,which spoiled the meal,so it will be a while before we visit again.

Just had Sunday lunch, basically a £5 lunch for nearly£10. Mash , carrots, BROCCOLI, BROCCOLI uncooked, seasoning balls tasted likemade of sawdust, home made Yorkshire frozen and reheated I think. Absolutely tasteless meal , not seasoned at all. Like a corner cafe version of Sunday lunch.

En nuestro día de golf de caridad en el Leeds Golf Centre, el curso fue magnífico y un enorme mérito para todo el personal del lugar. Es fantástico ver que el bar y el restaurante vuelven a su mejor nivel. Todo el personal de wike ridge inn fue excelente, junto con la comida y bebida que se ofrece durante todo el día. ¿Este lugar es verdaderamente el mejor lugar para todos los eventos, incluyendo el foot golf y las pizzas? son para morirse. Bien hecho todos 5 estrellas.

This the best Wetherspoons we have been to. Fast efficient service and decent food. The manager went to every table to ask about the food. Others could certainly learn from her.

Ordered food via app, stated that food would be 13 mins which is fairly normal. 20 mins later it arrived COLD after 3 mins still waiting for 2 extra slices of toast we ordered we chased this up to have to ask again, 10 mins later toast arrived COLD, asked to speak to manager that didn't seem concerned he had a complaint, he said there running 25 mins behind although on app it was taking about 13 mins, told him food was cold another excuse was there short staffed, couldn't really explain why we had to wait another 10 mins for our toast other than that there short staffed, only thing he offered was a FREE drink which you actually get free anyway with the refills. If there was a zero star I would definitely put that. Will not be returning here again, absolute shambles.

Was poor when ownership changed and then improved in the second half of 2023 however went downhill again just before Christmas and just tried again today for 4th time and no better, cheap sausage and spam used. Sausage, Spam and Tom sauce consisted of 2 sausage, 2 slices of tinned oblong spam and a smidge of tom sauce, £3.90!!! A spam on it's with 2 small slices of spam £3.10!!! You mainly tasted bread. No point mentioning the other disappointing butties the team had. Time to change again.
