The Lupset in Wakefield

Mikey is a credit to the pub so attentive. Food was lovely. Overall a lovely Xmas experience.

Lunch for my wife and 3 sisters

never go there again no food available

Not a bad pub. Staff are all friendly enough. The only problem I had was the area we were sat in smelled of damp/mould. My clothes were stinking when I got home. No option to move from the area as we were attending a party.

Food was delicious. Mixed grill was huge for the price and the steak on it was cooked to perfection.

A nice looking place but unfortunately not a busy night when I attended to see a singer guitarist

Please please get some decent hand pull beers or IPA's like Brewdog or Neck Oil. Food was lovely but drinks selection a bit disappointing

We came to all eat together as a family as it was a birthday. Shame we had all eaten apart from 2 adults who hadn't received any food. Poor excuse saying it was from new menu. We left as didn't feel appropriate waiting.

Just visited to try the new menu and it was amazing. The chips are incredible and the new onion bhaji's are better than from an Indian takeaway. The service was lovely as always. Can't wait to come back and try something else from the new menu.

Came for dinner tonight as a last minute booking for a party of 19! The new owner couldn't have been more accomodating. Service was great and the food was amazing, definitely recommend the 'dirty chicken' Looking forward to coming back 😀

First time visiting today for food. Absolutely delicious. Nice spacious place with extremely friendly, welcoming staff. Will definitely be making this a regular place to eat.

The chef must have dropped the salt pot in my beef and ale pie. Maybe a one off. Maybe I should have sent it back. To be fair, the chicken sizzlers that one of my party looked awesome.

Always lovely food and staff, and just around the corner which makes impromptu dinner quick and easy! ☺️

What an absolute disgrace! We sat down and we ordered food with one meal coming out just after 15 minutes yet the other meals did not come out for another 45 minutes! When they did eventually come out one of the meals was wrong! And the guy did admit that he did get it wrong which was fine as he admitted! However we had already been waiting a long time we had to so for cutlery they gave us the meals but no cutlery?? They then said that we would get the meal that was the right one for free but wasn’t really free when we had paid for something we didn’t even order! Refused to give us any sort of compensation the manager refused to come out and talk to us I asked to speak with them and got told no? They had a bunch of rowdy rugby players in which was way over the top with the noise level! Baring in mind they all had seen we had a 4 month old baby with us! This was supposed to be a nice meal out for my birthday which has now been ruined!! The replacement meal was cold and has since made me feel sick… absolutely diabolical if they know it was going to be busy more chefs and more staff should have been brought in to be able to cope with all the extra orders! And you shouldn’t have to book to get priority it should be as the orders come in absolute joke! We won’t be returning which is a shame because it was really nice back in November when I had my baby shower! What a let down 😞

Food arrived an hour after ordering. One order was wrong and had to be redone. toilets are broken with no locks. Manager refused to talk to us directly, meaning the general staff took the flack. No refund offered on the wrong order. In response to the owners reply - no we didn't order the wrong meal. your staff admitted to putting the order through wrong.

6 people for lunch. 2 served, 10 minutes later 3 served. The last one served nearly 15 minutes after that. Food good just the waiting for meal took too long.

Just a flying visit, the food looked excellent the atmosphere, the Grand National was on, was really good. We'll be back for a longer stay.

Just passing through and was looking for somewhere to eat. We got two meals for £16. I was expecting a smaller portion but to be honest they were big! I couldn't eat it all. It was delicious and I would eat there again. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Fabulous meal had the dirty chicken today. Been a few times and never been disappointed with the food and service. Pity it isn't busier as this is a lovely place.

Thought was a bit dear 5.25 for half larger an a lime an lemonade god them meal was wrong they was only on a small menu but came wrong chips.were seasoned in salt pepper seasoning which I shouldn't have salt so not best for me

Went to the Easter garden party was waiting over an and half food. Was heaving and went to ask about food and said the chicken tenders had already come out. And the cheese burger hadnt been made yet and got told would be another half hour i said no im not waiting any longer and asked for my full refund back. And said ill do it on this occasion i will definitely not be going back which i had to fight to get a refund back

Amazing food and super friendly staff, they have a nice menu that has specials that change daily. Sunday roast wasn't amazing but everything else was delicious! I would definitely return.

Had lunch there today. Alk good food and the gravy on the sausage & mash was fabulous. Service excellent as were the friendly staff. Will visit again next time we're uo in Wakefield. Thankyou Rita

Just been for lunch with my 2 friends at 'The Lupset' pub. The food was lovely, I had steak pie and chips which was bang on. Was looking forward to trying Tuesday evening, which is Thai Night and has good reviews. We were also planning on going for another meal there and to go to their tribute nights. Anyway, here's where the story starts... We ordered 4 puddings. 2 cheesecake slices to eat in, 1 crumble to eat in, A choc cake slice to take away. We waited 25 mins for these and had a lovely waitress come over and apologise that they would be another 5-10 mins which was fine. Another 15 mins went by and we were on a time limit (childcare) so we went to the bar and apologised to the waitress and said we would have to go without the puddings. She was lovely, I quickly nipped to the toilet whilst my friend was about to pay for hers, I came back out and the manager was stood on the customers side of the bar next to my friends, looking at them like dirt and with massive attitude. I heard " well how long do YOU think a hot pudding should take?" I stopped her there as I could tell by my friends mortified faces that she had been out or order with them both. I said to her that you can't talk to people like that! There was no apology on the time it had taken for the desserts, 0 customer service skills shown. She continued on, she said you can't leave without paying for the puddings... the ones that we haven't even got 🤣🤣 I said that we have no issue paying for the food and drink in FULL and it was lovely. But it had taken so long for the puddings that we had to go now. She said we weren't allowed to leave without paying for the puddings and that she would get them put them in a takeout container for us all?! We said we didnt want them now, we came out to eat, not to take them home. But she didnt give us a choice. She refused to knock them off the bill and to forget about them. She refused even a discount if we did take them in a container home. We wasn't allowed to pay for anything we had consumed, she wouldnt let the staff work the till. So we was just stood at the bar llike trio of melons. We didn't want to leave without paying for anything, that's not who we are. Although i felt like walking out. We didn't want any trouble, we wanted to pay for our mains and drinks. The look in her eyes at the time and her stance and attitude seemed she wasnt going to let us go easily anyway 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Me and my 2 friends decided to give her the 20 odd quid for the puddings, and obviously pay in full for the drinks and meals too. It wasn't worth the hassle. She stormed off, was the last we saw of her and the chef (he was lovely) came out 5 mins later, very apologetic and calm with 4 take out containers. I felt so sorry for him. I feel sorry for her staff, if she speaks to 3 customers who have been polite to her and have spent a decent amount of £ in her pub, imagine how she speaks to her staff 😬😬😬 Hopefully she sees this and it is a learning opportunity to better her customer service skills. Maybe there is something happening in her life which made her react this way and if there is then I genuinely hope that she is ok but its not acceptable to speak to individuals in the way that she did. Sadly we won't be returning even though we enjoyed the mains.

What a transformation this pub has had with the new manager & owners (Mustard Pubs ) There’s plenty of choice on the menu including veggie. We’ve visited quite a few times as a family in 2024 as the food has all been delicious freshly cooked and plenty full. Check out Mustards loyalty scheme too. Highly recommend and the new manager is great 🙌🏼

Arrived for the quiz on a Tuesday but it wasn’t on as there weren’t enough teams which is a shame, but we stayed for food which was delicious! The Thai specials are really good and authentic, and only available on Tuesdays, and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier. Plenty of parking outside too.

Great food, friendly staff, couldn't ask for anything else,,

New years eve?? Waited 20 minutes at bar to be told at 22.55 can't serve me its new year well please avoid 20 minutes really

I went to the lupset with my family and friends for my 60th birthday on the 23rd it was a great night the food is amazing and there was a tribute act on he was good thankyou Paul.

Fantastic home cooked Sunday Lunch and the staff couldn't do anymore for us. Very good value for money and delicious. Management are doing a great job of turning the reputation of The Lupset around.

Lovely food, pleasant staff good value

Called in on Sunday night for the last food orders… The food was still absolutely beautiful and the gravy was out of this world … Staff absolutely lovely… Shame I hade to eat a lovely meal while having no choice but to watch the man united match but never mind the gravy made up for this … thank you!

Lovely pub to.go to, nothing like it used to be Food is great here the staff is lovely too, atmosphere is lovely too great for families aswel. Please give this place a try if you haven't already you will not be disappointed.

Went Sunday 3rd of December for a family meal, 13 adults, 3 children, food was lovely, everyone enjoyed, great price,very friendly and helpful staff, we will be back and can highly recommend, thank you for a great few hours

Met with a few biking colleague's had a steak & mushroom pie with chips and peas, well the chips were huge slices of potatoes with skins on all very nice with a rich dark gravey will have again.

What can I say! The welcome we got for our first visit was lovely, and we cannot wait to return....definitely a Wednesday to Saturday to feed the family next time! Thank you, we will be back! 29.7.23 O.K...been back loads of times since my review and never had a bad meal, in fact, as a family, we are working our way through a very lovely menu! Not only are the meals wonderful, so are the staff who are friendly, professional and a pleasure to speak to. Thank you all. 10.11.23 Went for tea last night, and had an amazing time! 2 Mixed grills, Lasagne, Fish and chips and Nachos...every meal an empty plate at the end, and the Sharing sundae was a triumph for 2...or 3 really! Staff a fabulous team and so helpful and kind, Thank you x

Went here for the Halloween party which turned out to consist of trying to wrap yourself in toilet paper to be a mummy and well that it plus a buffet which was decent, don't advertise a Halloween party if it isn't one. We came early to eat before it started and the food is pretty good, service is ok. We had a birthday meal here a few weeks ago too and it was for 20 people so we had to let them know what we wanted days in advance which is fine but then they got things wrong and they forgot some of the dishes, all in all the staff and owner don't know what they are doing.

Didn't eat here, but the service was very good. The live band was a little too loud for us but it was a good band. Place was quite full with people appreciating the music.

Nice fresh food, good size portion. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Just watched an absolutely brilliant band called "Into the Pacific"..... what can I say! BRILLIANT.

Like this place friendly staff, great selection of food and drink.

I can't comment on the food as I haven't eaten there yet. That's only because we don't eat out very often. We keep talking about giving it a go as the menu looks nice. The service has always been good when I have been in, even when really busy. There are lots of live bands, quiz nights, family fun days etc. It's great for a local pub, I really hope it thrives and becomes a focal point of the community like it used to be. I went into labour there during the quiz, in December 1994!

Food Not Worth 1 Star, Worst Meal Ever." Please don't try food here for your health sake. To have a steak with meat that is off, dry, and tasting like a meat that was out of date a week ago is completely outrageous. The steak didn't look like grilled but cooked. I didnt even see any grilled mark on it at all. The chips were black and soggy and couldn't be eaten. We also had soggy onion rings. I regret not taking pictures of the food because I have no words to describe those. I told the manager who wasted about 20 minutes of our time before she could come to speak with us. She didn't even listen to hear what we had to say. The first thing she said was that the meat is fresh and came in that morning from the butchers and demanded payment in full. There was no apologies whatsoever. I would not recommend the food here to even my worst enemy. I won't visit here again. I thought being a newly launched business, it would be excellent, but I was so wrong. Stay clear.

"Worst Meal Ever." I have been to many restaurants and have eaten so many steak meals, but never have I eaten the worst steak like the one I had in this restaurant. Sometimes, steak can come back, not cooked as intended, but to have a steak with meat that is off, dry, and tasting like a meat that was out of date a week ago is completely outrageous. The steak didn't look like grilled but cooked. I didnt even see any grilled mark on it at all. The chips were black and soggy and couldn't be eaten. We also had soggy onion rings. I regret not taking pictures of the food because I have no words to describe those. I told the manager who wasted about 20 minutes of our time before she could come to speak with us. She didn't even listen to hear what we had to say. The first thing she said was that the meat is fresh and came in that morning from the butchers. There was no apologies whatsoever. I politely asked her to have a taste and tell me what she thinks. She didn't even look at the food but said we were lying and insisted that we pay full price for the food. I told her I am happy to pay for my food, but to be called a liar is not something I appreciate. I told her if she tasted the food and confirmed it is fresh, I would be happy to pay. She refused to still check the food out. I was charged for food I couldn't eat and no apologies for the out of date steak and appalling food. I would not recommend the food here to even my worst enemy. I won't visit here again. I thought being a newly launched business, it would be excellent but I was so wrong. Stay clear.

Can't fault the food was perfect fresh ingredients freshly cooked service good. Will definitely return.

Landlady an bar staff havent got a clue on how to treat customers

Lovely members of staff but took a hour and fifteen minutes from getting in to getting food which was horrible i got cold chicken joujons and the salad well think it had been left in fridge for 6 month limp and smelt.

Could not get over the change. Gorgeously redecorated, and the food was fantastic. Will be going again very soon I hope❤️❤️

Had a good night out on Saturday a couple weeks ago, live entertainment, and a thunderstorm for added entertainment.

Called in on an off chance as the pub was advertising Live Music. Sadly only caught the last two songs from the band Deadmanzamp, both were excellent and would have liked to have heard more. Friendly bar staff and good beer. Well worth a visit.

Lupset has gone through so many hands in the last 20 years. After Chris and Mags left it was good for a while and then fell off a cliff. All the wrong clientele and just not a place that you wanted to go to. Glad to say that the newest owners seem to have rectified this and the vibe is a lot more chilled and family friendly. Food could do with a change, perhaps a new menu or something. Staff are very friendly and a good laugh.

Since refurb it has taken on a new life from brilliant entertainment on a weekend to fantastic food 😋

Called for a quick drink after work . On a hot day . Big beer garden and friendly staff . Nice clean place . Didn't have food . But I have heard good things about it in past

Food was delicious all home made,and also brilliant service ,will be going again

Wonderful to see it catering to families and children again after it being an eyesore for years and even worse before that! Very happy customer who was made to feel extremely welcome by the lovely chatty staff

Absolutely lovely family friendly pub with a great atmosphere that does so much for the community! It’s also dog friendly and children are allowed in until late as long as accompanied by an adult. I opened a local dance troupe this year and Gemma the manager has been nothing but amazing. She’s supported us allowing us to fundraise at the pub. She’s doing so much to help bring the community back together. Her and all the staff are brilliant, super friendly, the customer service is amazing. The food is absolutely beautiful, freshly cooked, can’t recommend enough!

Beautiful place friendly,welcoming staff and beautiful food

Amazing to me and the dance girls💜lovely friendly staff, food is amazing! And let me stay after closing while i wait for my lift! xxx

Called into the Lupset after hearing new kitchen team on board, what a difference, food amazing, plates nice and warm and service with a smile, they even let me buy a cooked sausage for my pooch. Nothing too much trouble for them will certainly be visiting again sooner rather than later 😀😀. Thankyou for a great afternoon.

Thank you for providing lovely food and really great service Gemma.

Went here after seeing reviews on TripAdvisor. Great food, drinks. Cute toy box for kids to play outside and goalposts. Would definitely visit often if we lived closer!

2nd time I've been here since reopening food brilliant again,hosts amazing my grandson it loved definitely recommended 😋😊😊

Went for lunch today, tried the specials, got to say they were fantastic. I believe they now have a new kitchen team and the portions were also very generous!!!!!! Well done Lupset!!!!

Very nice evening £3.50 a pint Fosters ,very reasonable. Lovely sat in the Beer garden ,very nice staff.

Went in yesterday afternoon after seeing they have new chefs and the food was great! Very friendly and happy staff which made us feel welcome. We will 100% be coming back to try the new dishes and chef specials that are coming soon.

Great staff, nice beers and food.

Went in for the first time over BH weekend with fairly low expectations, but had read an article about the venue so thought I'd try it. Was very pleasantly surprised with the experience. It is a tidy and friendly pub which is good for a quiet drink and has a good real ale offering and reasonable prices. Special thanks to Gemma and her team for the warm welcome which is always gratefully received, I'm a shy guy who lives alone so it's good to know there's somewhere I can go locally to make friends, have a few drinks and a decent night. See you soon!

Had a great night with my band Pac Band at The recently refurbished Lupset. Friendly staff and patrons welcomed us to the pub. Looking forward to a return visit

Very beutiful place. Fantastic music. Nice food. Thanks xxx

Went in on Saturday to see neil diamond, was really good and beer was nice - garden lovely and big for the kids, good staff

Early days between jobs so empty quick j2o before next job . Empty but quiet time

I would definitely not recommend this pub at all the manager is rude to the customers and the staff definitely should not be a manager worst pub/restaurant in the uk never mind Wakefield

What a great day today my dad and I have had in the lupset hotel... The Sunday lunch was devine..❣️ not had a lunch out that for a very long time.... My hat off to the chef.... The staff are also accomodating and friendly..... My dad has Alzheimer's and dementia and he loved the day out....

Went here for Mother’s Day, table of 7. We booked the day before over the phone. However what we wasn’t told was that it was a carvery only set menu and doesn’t state this online anywhere. When arrived and asked for food menus then we was told it is carvery only. We waited 20mins just to be asked for drinks. We then went to get a carvery and all the different meats were mixed together, they had run out of mash, peas and various other items. They only serve onion gravy and could not do normal. Then got desserts and I choose a sticky toffee pudding. The custard was clumpy and full of loads of lumps clearly not mixed properly, the sticky toffee pudding tasted nothing like it should, the sauce on it was charcoaled. Would not recommend to anyone 100% not worth the price

Service is rubbish and starters took an hour to come and I had to chase a kids meal twice

It's a lovely little pub with a personal touch from the staff. We turned up with a massive load of kids and they looked after us. Nice home made pub grub couldn't fault the price either. Will be back.

Can't comment on the food as we cancelled and left after over an hour waiting time "a table of ladies sat at the back of us also left due to over an hour wait wouldn't mind but the pub wasn't overly busy with food orders yet still took forever to the point we left they did give us our drinks on the house which we really appreciate thankyou but for our first visit it wasn't good at all "the lady who had the fox and hounds pub was very nice and really helpful shame the other staff member she was working with was WORK SHY very lazy and didn't even acknowledge us to let us know any food was delayed just let the other lady do all the running around don't think we will rush back sorry.

Thought we'd give it a try, lovely decor. Bar staff very friendly and welcoming, the food was excellent. I had gammon, egg, homemade chips, peas and tomatoe. My bestie had steak and ale pie homemade chips plus veg, extra gravy too. Both agreed we will go back.

We ordered from the evening menu. My husband had creamy garlic mushrooms to start, and hunter’s chicken with chips to follow, both of which were very nice. On the other hand, my “calamari” starter…I don’t even know what it was! Calamari comes in rings with crispy batter, this was something round and chewy coated in something you might use to render a house with, accompanied by barbecue sauce! With calamari? My steak pie was lovely but a tiny tiny portion, huge lumps in the mashed potatoes, and “seasonal veg” which was, inevitably, peas and carrots. Basic errors that need to be corrected.

We waited about 40 minutes for our meals. There was confusion about the menu.. we thought we were ordering from 7.99 lunch menu but when the bill came we were charged the higher price. On a positive note the staff were friendly and helpful

Arrived 2.25pm got drinks then told kitchen closed 2.30pm till 3.30pm. No mention of this on menus or web site. Won't be going back.

Had a nice meal at latest will go again staff happy to help

Nice pub, decent pint but a bit pricey.

Friendly service , food was just ok and reasonably priced subscribe to the pubs website and get 20 % back on everything you purchase everytime , drinks & food.

Food good service with a smile all you need to have a good time will go again 😀

We tried it yesterday. Ok but doubt we’ll go back. Think that says it all.

Its OK if youre passing and fancy a drink, nothing to write home about.

I had to send a stale sandwich back.

Well I wouldn't go again. The food was fine, but the service was very slow, and the place was not busy. We were given fre Lattes to compensate for the day. It wasn't a latte, it was Coffee made with water and a dropof milk. Undrinkable. The girls who served were very apologetic and have no complaints about them, but management were conspicuous by there absence. Unless they get there act together I'm afraid one again The Lupset won't last long, which would be a shame.

Thought we'd try this local pub ...what can you say friendly bar staff no one else in the pub when I ordered our main and sweet off the menu... waited approx 25mins for the main course ..chips black just warm, peas cold.. a further 30 minutes for sweet skin on the custard Luke warm apple crumble microwaved within an inch of turning to liquid.....A place I would not recommend. Oh and in the hour and fifteen minutes we spent in their we were the only ones eating it wasn't busy.

Very welcoming pub good selection of food and beers by friendly staff

A little hiccup with my order been delayed due to a technical problem with the till when the food did arrive it was fabulous and the staff was so apologetic. Will definitely be returning

We waited ages for our food and it came out all wrong

Fab sausage n mash with onion gravy! I was stuffed, will be visiting again and they even welcomed my dog

Very disappointed in the temperature of food and not good customer services when called up on how cold the food was

Expensive food, extremely small portions and poor quality food. Paid £5+ for 3 small chicken goujons! Not a bad place for a drink (albeit £5 a pint), but much better places close by for food. Wouldn't waste your time.

Just had a lovely meal and drinks here. Lovely food, very friendly and smart staff. Will definitely be back and recommend to others.

Feels like a good local pub. Friendly staff, good choice of lagers and beer. Reasonably priced too. No food on at the moment, but that won't be long, we hope! When food does arrive, hopefully they'll have gluten free, veggie, and vegan options. Dog friendly too!
