The Angel Inn in Wakefield

Eaten here a few times and food has always been tasty. Portion sizes are really good as is the service. Lamb burger special was full of flavours, chicken burger was tender and huge. Really enjoyed it - just sort your gents toilets out. It’s impossible to shut the cubicle door without brushing your legs against the toilet bowl!

A nice place to sit and enjoy lovely meal with family and friends. We didn’t book and even though they were busy the staff fitted us in, they are lovely, welcoming and very helpful. I would definitely recommend and will be visiting again soon

Lass behind bar was rude and very blunt, wouldn't recommend

Called in today for a Sunday lunch we were stood at the bar for 20 minutes with staff wanking past looking at us with out a hello how can we help or anything At least this give us a good chance to look at the Sunday lunches othered was eating and safe to say this wasn’t for us blessing in disguise I guess

Called in today after a walk round Nostell Priory. The staff were immediately welcoming, couldn't do enough for us. We ate from the 2 course menu, less than £13 each.... the food was top quality, the perfect late lunch. All washed down with a cracking pint of Guiness (Madri for the significant other) . Excellent value for excellent food, we will definately be back for more.

Great little pub. Great atmosphere everyone is very friendly and had a fire on the go to keep us warm and toasty Everyone in our party enjoyed their food. We had a prawn sandwich, fish and chips and lasagne. The bill including 3 bottles of wine, and some puddings came to £140. Very reasonable.

First class food would recommend a visit. Visited on a Sunday, had pre booked our table as was really busy. Being quite finicky with food I was delighted with the quality & the service. Prawn Cocktail was delicious but missing tomato, still worthy off a 10. Chose Roast beef dinner and asked for selected veg due to tastes. This was accommodated. This meal was delicious. Left feeling full to burst. Personally having never visited before although the rest of my party have, I can honestly say I will definitely be going again. Even has a brilliant choice of drinks . I would recommend booking a table so not to be disappointed. First class all round. Thank you Julie.

Had the week day 2 course set menu, was lovely and so good value, booked for two more times on the spot!

Really slow service, left waiting ages, no offer of desserts until we went to the bar, over priced for what it is and very meagre portions, not one to go back to.

I can highly recommend this pub the food is lovely, and the staff are excellent.

Came here for a meal with my dad and had a lovely time. There was a wide variety of dishes on the menu, definitly something for everyone. We opted of the homemade steak and ale pie and the fish. Both dishes were lovely. You can tell that the food is made with care and everything is homemade. The atmosphere was very chill and relaxing and the staff were also very nice and friendly. There was a large selection of drinks available too. A great spot to eat and drink in Ackworth 👌 Thank you to the angel team for having us 😊

Went along today with my old Dad, where we met two friends. The staff are very welcoming, and wonderfully efficient. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I had the Turkey dinner, and it was superb. Loads of meat, and nicely cooked veg along with roast and mash potato. All of it nice and hot. Absolutely wonderful meal. A lovely place to go for a meal, whatever the occasion. The staff are an absolute credit. It's nice to find such a friendly, welcoming place. I'll definitely go again.🍽️👍.

Went here today with my partner for lunch, it isn’t our first time here because we simply love the place, it is good value, great ambience, lovely decor and top class food, the service is spot on and I wanted to review the food today, I had the small portion of fish and chips, it was just enough for me and was cooked to perfection, my partner had the Garlic & Mushroom Risotto and it was simply gorgeous, I tasted it and it will certainly be what I order on my return, so 10/10 to Joe the chef who turns out some beautiful well presented food, I think Gordon Ramsey better watch out because Joe will be stealing the show!. We will be back soon and I must mention the bar and waiting staff who are so friendly, helpful and attentive, you are a credit to the Angel Inn, I highly recommend this venue and promise you will not be disappointed!..

Had a birthday celebration at lunchtime the food, service and atmosphere couldn't have been better. Excellent value and great tasting home cooked food. Can tell it's all freshly made. Thank you. Recommend without a doubt.

Went with ladies who lunch. Really enjoyed it 😀

I’m not one into writing reviews and I wrote one last week. But tonight I have called again for something to eat and drink. Nice atmosphere nice staff and really really good food at a reasonable price. I’m making it my place to go have a drink and a very nice meal every week from now on.

Maisie served us and a very polite and helpful young lady. The food was delicious compliments to the chef and his staff I really couldn’t fault it. Just drinks or food 100% a very good place.

Went for dinner (booked) last night (Saturday) we are not regulars but do go about every 6 weeks. From start to finish it was a lovely experience, drinks ordered and served to the table, fantastic menu and food was amazing - perfect portion sizes (large!) Our waitress was a lady called Cass and was absolutely what made our evening so nice, attentive without being in your face, knowledgeable and polite. The other waitresses seemed to be providing a similar service to other tables. Clearly a good management team. Well done 👍

Best Sunday lunch we have had for a long time. 1st visit, definitely won’t be the last. Meat tender, all the veg was fresh and all served hot. The service was good and all the staff were polite & friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely Christmas dinner. The staff were very efficient and polite.

The food is always excellent with plenty of choice and a great specials board. The staff are really friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. We have been many times and never been disappointed

Great value for money I had a 2 courses £12 And a hot baguette chips and gravy £10.95

The Angel has been in the same safe hands for 10 years now. Still a great atmosphere, lovely food and a friendly welcome. Good drink selection, ample parking, outside seating that catches the sun. Has it really been a decade since that first chip butty?!

Great pub and really really good Sunday lunch! Recommend! :)

Great experience with friendly staff and amazing home cooked food

Very good service by all the staff

First time here and it was well worth visiting. Lovely food and all served freshly cooked. The special sausage trio I had was really tasty. The lasagne looked amazing too. Cheesecake desserts finished the meal off nicely.

Visited The Angel for the first time to meet up with friends for lunch. The food was average. Towards the end of the meal I asked for a chamomile tea as I have a health issue with my throat which means I have to be careful with certain hot drinks. I was told they didn’t have this which is fair enough. I carry my own tea bags for times like this and have never had a problem in other cafes and restaurants when I’ve asked for hot water if they don’t stock chamomile tea. The waitress took my order and returned some time later to say as hot water wasn’t on the menu they couldn’t serve it to me. I asked to speak to a manager and after a further time delay someone came to say that in this occasion only they would bring me a cup of hot water but not in the future. When I queried why this was I was told it was a cost issue. Really? A cup of hot water?! Between the 3 of us our bill amounted to just under £100 and they struggled to give me a small cup of hot water. For this reason I will not be visiting here again.

Absolutely ridiculous arrived at 1.00pm and told can't serve food to 6 adults and 5 kids as chef can't accommodate. ! Only about 12 patrons in the whole pub. You wonder why pubs are on the decline. Such a shame.

There was 4 of us on a birthday celebration all of us had different choice of meal every one of them was excellent, highly recommended by all. Thank you. We will be back

Had the small menu, plenty for us . Hate to leave stuffed. Both meals for less than £20, so tasty and hot. Fish and chips and steak and ale pie.

What a truly wonderful experience at the Angel. All 5 family members ordered different meals. All meals were delivered at the same time piping hot and absolutely delicious. Lovely professional staff, I would highly recommend..

Another fabulous meal at The Angel tonight. My other half had venison burger, which he described as spectacular. I had the a lovely tender chicken breast with fondant potatos, buttered greens and the most delicious mushroom and white wine sauce. Both really enjoyed it. This is our favourite spot for great food and the Sunday lunch cannot be beaten in our view. Would recommend giving it a try, we will definitely be working our way through the new autumn menu.

I'm sure it would be very nice if somebody would actually take time to answer the telephone to take a booking...........

Local pub with nice outdoor area

Have to say my lasagne was banging, hot and very tasty and manager ask me if everything was okay and top it off I would recommend it to anyone

Came here for my tea with my grandmother last week, the service was incredible I was served by lovely blonde girl. I cannot fault either the food or the service. I shall definitely be returning.

We love this pub, lovely inside & out Good choice of drinks, great menu, lunch & main Prices very reasonable for the quality of food served Staff very friendly & helpful

Lovely place, food and service good. There is always a little space for improvement. Small family friendly, but well worth a visit if you can get a table.

Great food, such friendly staff.

Amazing Sunday lunch and such friendly staff. Big portions of food and the beef was so moist. Perfect setting for inside or outside. Will definitely be back

Went for lunch today, and we had the two course meals for £11.95, the first course was nice. We had a chicken skewer (on the menu, it says skewers, plural, you get one ) . Then for main we had the black sheep ale beef pie with mash,peas and gravy (in a jug) , the pie was so salty it was unbelievable if you like a lot of salt you really didn't need to add, also the mash was instant mash which was horrible, it was like paste and the gravy was so thick in the jug it came out in a blob. Would not recommend going there to eat.

Never had other than excellent food and first class service. I've been through the menu and the smaller portions are more than enough for me. Love the steak pie and the fish and chips with mushy peas. Best in locality without doubt. Highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.

We visited for a family meal and both myself and my son had the 24 hour braised rib of beef with horseradish mash, and we both thought it was one of the best meals we’ve had in a restaurant for a long time. The meat just fell apart, the mash was so tasty, the right amount of horseradish and lovely fresh veg. We have visited before and will definitely visit again, just please keep this on the menu!

Been a few times, food was decent and serving staff were all friendly and attentive although we've only managed to eat once. Definitely need to pre-book, been snottily turned away as walk-ins by the grumpy lady on the diary more than once.

Sat outside on a beautiful day. Not pleasant, beer garden too near very busy main road. Wanted food but had stopped serving at 2pm.

Really great food with a good choice of beers and great service.

Great place to eat excellent food !

Tried to book July now, but could not accommodate us as we had a wheelchair, very disappointing as we have been there previously without a problem.

WARNING IF YOU Suffer from gluten intolerance do not eat at the Angle. This year my wife and I have been out for 10 meals in a 20 mile radius of home, to various different pubs and Cafes, on all those occasions absolutely no issue with gluten contamination. The first time eating at the Angel within half an hour of the meal my wife was ill. We have had this problem at other venues, but the staff have always very apologetic and said we will review our food allergy preparation work Area. But not the Angel, they try to blame the wine, which by the way all wine is free of gluten. Will never eat there again.

The food and service was excellent.

Lovely Sunday lunch would highly recommend because it was fathers day it was really busy so was waiting quite some time for sweet menus

Lovely meal, good service and a good beer

Sunday Roast was absolutely lovely, highly recommended

Not our first time at the Angel. The food is freshly prepared and beautiful. A delay between ordering and service but well worth the wait. Attentive and friendly staff and nothing too much trouble.

Came with a group of friends for a meal in April. We were seated quickly and our orders were taken in good time. I ordered a Greek salad starter off the specials board and a Lasagne off the smaller appetites menu. The food came quick and tasted lovely. The Greek salad was delicious, I would recommend putting it on the standard menu. Even though it was a smaller portion the Lasagne was a good size and very filling. For a starter, main course and 2 glasses of wine the bill for myself was just shy of £30 which I think is great value. Will definitely be back again.

I was not impressed to have booked a table to meet up with a friend to find when we got there it was shut! The website says it's open and did all night, don't take bookings if you're not open! And update your website plz so at least people are aware not to waste their time, I saw a few cars pull in the carpark n leave again when they realised it was closed,

Food lovely, staff lovely, need I say anymore. Highly Recommended

Brilliant food, good service and a lot of clocks on the wall! The fish (which was haddock, the best kind of fish) and chips with peas was tasty! Would definitely come here again!

Came for a drink with my husband this evening and enjoyed an alcohol free Heineken with lime and an alcohol free gin with lemonade. Kat the server behind the bar was so welcoming, friendly and helpful. She was knowledgeable of the variety of drinks and had a lovely bubbly personality about her. Was nice to visit and as a non drinker to have a selection of alcohol free drinks to enjoy. Thanks again Kat for your helpful and kind attitude :)

Delicious food home made + reasonably priced

Go here often never fails staff are fantastic food is always spot on

Beautiful homemade food. No waiting and excellent service. Would highly recommend.

Excellent food and excellent service

Had a lovely evening catching up with friends. We all chose different meals and everyone said how much they enjoyed the food. We didn't realise at the time of booking, that Wednesdays is quiz night, and although we didn't actually take part we enjoyed guessing the answers. The staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The service provided was second to none

Well, what can I say apart from absolutley fantanstic. Food was stunning, service was excellent. Plenty of car parking which is always a bonus. Well done. 5 star rating. Will be visiting again.

A great little local pub. Good food, awesome staff and a lovely atmosphere. What's not to like. Whenever we can, we will always try to support local businesses and this one never disappoints. 🙂

Went on Mothers day,was very busy,but we were served straight away, soup to start with warm crusty bread..Roast dinner,piping hot,just too much,couldn't eat it all...unfortunately no room for a pudding....Service was very good, appreciated a check back,during started and main course...

My favourite place to eat, but notice the chips are now a pale, tasteless imitation of what they once were, hope it's not the start of things to come, as everything else was top notch.

I can honestly whole heartedly say I have never had a better steak. The food was delicious. The staff amazing and not in your face. My partner wanted scampi which was only on the lighter bites menu- they gave him a full sized portion!! AMAZING!!

Turned up at 1pm to a half filled pub to be told they weren't accepting walk ins as they had a party of 8 due to arrive. We were a party of 4 and would have finished our food before the other party arrived. Good beer though.

What an amazing pub, we went on a Saturday lunch to celebrate a birthday, the food was excellent and I really mean excellent!! The service from the staff was outstanding and the drinks selection huge. We felt like valued customers and even though we live 50 miles away, we'll be back again!!

Lovely place for quiet drink or groups. Food is amazing and staff couldn't be more helpful. 100% recommend this pub

Really enjoyed my meal. Got the small pie and chips. Nice staff. Will go back.

Fantastic food as always lovely staff could not wish for a better local x

Fantastic food, amazing place. Will definitely visit again!!!😀👍🏻

Good, hot, homemade food!! We opted for the lasagne and steak and ale pie, both were made fresh today we were told by the waiting staff. Both were served piping hot - they were still steaming when we took our last mouthful! The lasagne was served with an amazing cheesy garlic bread!! The only slight disappointment was the chips served with the pie, they were slightly undercooked and we were not 100% sure they were homemade. We also opted for the scotch egg with black pudding (from the starters menu but we had it as a side) which was also really good, tasty, and the egg was runny! The accompanying onion chutney was also nice!! Perfect lunch for a cold winter's day, would recommend!!

We are very lucky to call this place our local. The food is absolutely brilliant. In 10 years i have never had a bad meal. Make sure to book for food. Kitchen is small so while you may walk in and get a table for drinks, you may not be able to order food as the kitchen is up to its capacity.

Food was freshly cooked to order, hot and tasty

Nice pub friendly staff Good food service Good value for money

Food was good but small portions all in all not bad

Came for Sunday lunch with my uncle and auntie and had one of the best meals out I’ve had in years! Exceptional value, quality and service and best Yorkshire puddings I’ve ever had. The pub is tastefully decorated too and had the most beautiful real Christmas tree I’ve seen in a pub in my life. Fantastic experience with absolutely nothing to fault them on. Thanks!

It's definitely a place to visit. My only disappointment was my dessert, jam roly poly, very small portion for £5.95 compared to the other desserts served at our table ( fudge cake chocolate brownie apple tart ).

Excellent food the beef was amazing

Very comprehensive menu and good quality food in a well appointed venues

We had the most wonderful meal tonight in the Angel Ackworth . The food was home cooked and just amazing and the staff were lovely special thanks to our server Jack !! He was so polite friendly and just wonderful and lived up to my favourite name !!! . The waitress I think was Rebecca and what a diamond she was , so attentive and was there every time we looked up . I highly recommend it was just a wonderful experience all round . Ten out of ten ❤️❤️❤️ My husband had fish and chips the fish was flakey white the batter amazing . I had the steak and ale pie and it was one of the best Iv ever had . Well done your staff are so courteous and helpful . We will definitely be back .

Lovely place decor excellent staff so friendly ..and the food is first class

First time at Angel and it certainly won't be the last. Food was superb all fresh cooked. Great choice too. Thank you for a lovely evening. See you soon!

Just called on off chance of getting a meal at lunchtime and we where supposed to find that almost all of the tables were reserved and not surprised the food was delicious I had steak and ale pie home made chips and mushy peas the battered haddock was exellent all served piping hot a real treat well worth a visit prompt service well done

We had a lovely meal, there were 5 of us and the food all came out at the same time and was delicious , the staff were lovely too, will deffo be visiting again....

first time won't be the last. found this place courtesy of my daughter in law. well recommended. Thankyou to all at the "Angel"

Mum and dad. Myself and partner. 3 sunday lunches and 1 fish and chips. After months of being really disappointed at the carvery chains this place is a real find. Good service. Great staff. Quality food and value for money. My parents ordered the Sunday lunch but they were told the small carvery at £8.95 would probably be plenty for them. There were very happy with it. Plenty of meat, veg and perfect yorkshire puddings. Highly recommend The Angel.

The Angel, delicious food. Very friendly staff. Dog friendly too. The food was delicious, hot and plentiful. They have a small bites option if you don’t have a large appetite. Will definitely visit again.

Food was excellent service was spot on will be back midweek

Angel serves by far the best Sunday roast in Ackworth and surrounding area

Great food. Friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere.

Great food, great service, staff are wonderful. Keep up the good work. My son and I always come away happy and content. Galic mushrooms for myself, blackpudding scotch egg for my son for starters, both was perfect. We both tried the sea bass today, it was cooked to perfection, the potatoes were so tasty. Everything on the plate was perfect.

Beautiful food, great for allergies, highly recommend

Great food and drinks at a very reasonable price.

Couldn't fault it. Food was great. Had the smaller appetite meal, it was plenty. Staff friendly, look after you but not in your face. Lovely clean place. Great atmosphere. We are definitely going back.
