The Liquorice Bush in Wakefield

Food was very nice and proper veg cheesecake was good thanks

Brilliant meal great bar staff the ponte burger a must to try everything absolutely Spot on all the very best to all I hope all are here for a long time

Nice place to sit outside on a sunny Saturday afternoon and see the good folk of Pontefract pass by.

Called in for lunch on the day of the Liquorice Festival. Staff were very helpful and attentive. The Sunday roast was good value for money and the Liquorice cheese cake was beautiful(a new favourite dessert). Everyone was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Looking forward to returning at the next opportunity.

Great pub, good beer, dog friendly. Right in the town centre and a great place to go even ok a busy night if you fancy a relaxed chat with some mates. They now serve food which makes this by far my favourite in Pontefract

Just popped in for a drink after shopping Lad on a Saturday afternoon Young lad behind bar absolutely rude Huffing and puffing as asked for ice Sat on other side of bar and rude Won't return

Excellent larger service amazing cudent falt it at all

Just called for a drink.lady behind the bar made us feel very welcome and was really nice and pleasant.

Good atmosphere, good pint of Guinness, but the regulars like it their way. We pay what they pay, so why do they think that they are in charge.

Very nice sat outside watching the world go by. With a nice kept pint ad well.

We like this pub, it would be lovely if the music wasn't so loud then we could have a conversation.

Good atmosphere,great music and the best pink gins this side of pontefract xx

Lovwly place with a lovely cosy fire

Fabulous new owners, clean n fun place to go and have a lovely time.

Beautiful old town pub. Spotlessly clean but OMG the beer is simply awful. Warm & flat Coors lager again & the Guinness was shocking. Third time in following new owners & keep hoping for the beer to improve but this currently is not the case. Needs serious attention to the cellar.

Better if the quality food used not serve poor quality and high quantity

Great value nice pint of beer respectful staff 👍👍👍

Not been in here for over 10 years, it was lovely to see nothings changed really apart from it wasn't as ramming as I remember back in the day

A good atmosphere. Nice background music.decent price good bar staff

Value for money, friendly staff.vx

Saturday afternoon fosters £2.20 a pint

Excellent pub lots going off must visit

Travelled to the area from Preston, stopped off for some food. All staff really welcoming and the food was great! No complaints, if I visit again we will definitely go back for food 👍

Nice pub clean good food and drink 10/10

Guinness was lovely, staff friendly, was very busy

Terrible. Used to be a good place for lunch but now very disappointing. Had all day breakfast. £6.50 Cheap sausage, no butter for toast and all looked a bit unappetising. No more visits from us.

Great pub, the clientel can be a little vocal but this was outside. I would visit again.

Good outdoor seating in the pedestrianised area of the town centre. Pleasant place to stop for a beer.

lovely place staff very nice good Beer definitely go a again

Spotlessly clean, following all social distance guidelines. NHS track and trace in operation, sanitisation stations, and polite, cheerful, and obligingly staff.

The food at the Liquorish Bush, Pontefract, is basic,but you do have a fair choice of excellently cooked foods that are delicious. Excellent choice of wine spirit's and other branded drinks. The bar staff are very professional and always very polite. The Land Lady,Lord, are also very friendly. Wifi is available.

I have visited the Liquorice Bush, Pontefract, on a number of occasions.

Looks like its been refurbished very clean and good beer at a reasonable price 👍

We went in Saturday looking for a relaxing drink. Unfortunately, left very unimpressed with the ^safety measures' they have in place to kurb the spread of Covid. So, you are not allowed up to the bar and the staff will bring your drinks etc. The table service would have been a good idea if the 2 staff on were wearing face masks. They weren't and going table to table. How did they know if someone asymptomatic was in. They then went to all other tables stood less than 6 metres away. We didn't know about it until we ordered a drink. Were told to sit at a table and not go to the bar. When we decided to leave after the one drink we had to wait about 10 minutes to pay. Will not be going back as the spread of any virus will be in there.

Just popped in for a pint at the weekend, nice friendly staff

Lovely place staff very good lovely place to go I will be going again

Delicious Sunday lunch perfectly cooked, great service would definitely recommend

Good beer. Friendly staff and a live accoustic band on after work

Could not get service. Bar staff taking

Fantastic atmosphere great beer

Much improved place serving real ale at economical prices.

The refurbishment of the bar has made a dramatic improvement to the atmosphere. The bar staff are very polite and courteous and gives a good welcome to all visitors. I went for a sunday lunch and it was delicious and home made, and an affordable price.

Enjoyed the beer and very friendly.

Quiet when we were in but the staff were friendly and helpful, nice wee pub
