The Lane's Cafe in Wakefield

Ellie was serving me tonight. She was really helpful and kind. Thank you for your service.

Large group, pre ordered meals in the Xmas period. You would think the chef would make an effort to impress. Starters ok. Mains took 10 minutes to serve 3/4 different choices. Cold plates. Cold food. Vegetables arrived about 3 days after the plated meals. Gravy never materialised. Probably still on the hob. Hot roast potatoes and chips rocked up just after everyone had finished. Serving staff tried their best but kitchen clearly a disorganised shambles. Puddings ok but not that difficult. No check on whether meals were ok. Complacent attitude. Nah!

I usually call in on my commute from Manchester to Nottingham. A great location, ample parking. It can be busy around the car park due to a large business park, fuel station and hot food takeaway's in the vicinity, so have your wits about you in the car park. A huge Starbucks, ample seating, standard Starbucks choices. In general the place is usually always clean with plenty of staff. My last experience wasn't as good, the usual Starbucks standards had rasied it head. Staff milling around chatting and not actioning the rather large line of in shop customers or clearing the dirty tables and cups. In general this is one of the more pleasant Starbucks, let hope my last visit was a blip.

Awesome work from the Costa team at Wakefield Westgate station. Turned an Americano round in 1 and a half minutes (I was running late!) - followed me out to the platform with it as the train was pulling in. Great coffee too. Thanks fellas!

We absolutely love ordering from Smokey boys as the food is always incredible and they always get the food out as fast as they can. We will definitely be ordering from them again
