The Six Chimneys Restaurant in Wakefield

Since the refurbishment it's a lot bigger and better.

It was very good and the food is great every I go in xx

Really disappointed. Heard lots about this being huge but it really isn't. There's just one bar. Lots of tables but the place is nothing special.

Absolutely fabulous place brilliant food service a let down 24 steps to upstairs toilet. Only one in validity toilet down stairs. Yes wheel chair friendly worth several visits good quality cheap ales etc . My only concern is no normal toilet down stairs otherwise absolutely brilliant place.bar staff excellent Charlie was very helpful and professional.

Nicest Wetherspoon's I have been in. Very clean and in an art deco buiding

The pub has recently been refurbished and expanded the staff were incredibly friendly helpful and efficient. I had the nicest sirloin steak , chips and Chilean merlot at the cheapest price food and drink were delicious definitely reccomend

the server Valts was so nice and helpful! He had straws on hard whenever we needed and was so ready to help with our orders!

Went this Tuesday Afternoon and was hoping to find the disabled toilets and asked staff . Finn one of the chefs was a good samaritan and showed me the way to them and made sure I brought up any concerns with a manager . Very nice staff and very professional behaviour by them all .

Ordered the Abbots Ale and drank it, tasted good, pipes been well cleaned and in good quality. Wayhayy.

Amazing place. Loved the new decor and the price of the drinks is so reasonable. Ate there too and the food was spot on. Will return, well managed venue!

This isn't value for money with food Portions are appalling ... Will not be bk

Come quite often with the family, great atmosphere with very friendly staff. Meals are top notch and drinks definitely top it off with their wide range. 10/10, will deffo will go again

the coro na here is very y ummy

Can't beat a spoons brekky! Good atmosphere, amazing value for money and even better service!

Lovely staff and atmosphere. Visited quite a few times since the revamp and every visit had been brilliant. Staff are lovely and chatty. Special mention to manager Laura, she has done a great job since the re opening! Much better place than it once was!

Ordered the Abbots Ale and left it, tasted off, they obviously don't clean the pipes. Ergh.

Nice pub.. very busy.. carpets abit funky.. not the same clientele as before. One of your better spoons. Management decent aswell. Beer garden is quality.

Refurbished, and only a small bar . Still, great beer, at a wonderful price .

Well, first and foremost, it's a spoons 😜. That said, it's a lovely spacious one with great staff. And did I mention the new menu items? If you had told me last year that I'd be enjoying an excellent shawarma wrap and a good bowl of ramen In a spoons I wouldn't have believed you. But I really enjoyed them. Will come again

Positives -Atmosphere was lovely - Staff were attentive - Food arrived very quickly - very tasty. Negative - The smallest jacket potato I’ve ever been served by far 2” in diameter,which was very disappointing, please stop being so tight with your jackets!!!! We had three Large Mixed Grills with drinks, two with chips one with jacket potato - food had the lovely char grilled taste - presented well - tasted amazing

Bandit stole £25 from me. Dealt with a lovely lady (wetherspoons staff) regarding this issue. She saw the 'part' winnings paid. Machine turned off with 'error' tried turning it on and off multiple times didn't work. Went in the next day, bandit was on, but was told the engineer hasn't been out yet. Called again today (2 days after the issue) and was told the 'bandit guy's only saw a £1 winning. Yet it gave me £7 out of £32. I was told I'd have to contact the bandit companies customer service, which is fine. But I asked for this to be put in writing in an email, and they refused. In conclusion, the machine has stolen £25 from me and I can't get it back. I run a pub myself. I understand the 'blame games' but to refuse to put what they have verbally told me into writing so I can submit evidence to the company I need to contact is ridiculous. I will be returning to the pub tomorrow to hopefully resolve the issue. If the issue is resolved, I will happily take this review down and/or edit it.

Lost a bit of atmosphere now it's made bigger,food was nice so was beer prices Brill as always

Much better and spacious after a recent expansion and revamp.

It's a Wetherspoons. Friendly staff, I almost admired their care free nature under such stressful circumstances. Cheap beer made even better by the Wetherspoons app ( order through app and they bring it to your table without you having to move). Some of the customers in there leave little to be desired but hey that's why you're paying £2.50 a pint 👍

This was a fantastic pub for drinking, with a bright and well furbished area! The wooden sides are very neat, counter is well presented and staff were nice. I had a refreshing pint of cider, sitting comfortably at a smooth table!

Good value all round in a lovely refurbished space. Great for breakfast, a main meal or just a good value coffee.

Wakefield is going thru changes and needs places like the Six Chimneys.

Very disappointed visit/experience and was labled as a thief by the manager..... Group of 4 elderly ladies 66-86yr olds. Checked with bar staff the exact content of the meals ordered because of dietary requirements. I was reassured twice what was included in the meals that I wanted to order. I paid in FULL for the ordered meals x 4 covers. When served 1 of the meals x3 items was missing. I was told they were not included in the meal as previously reassured by Graham that these items were included... I was requested to pay for them. The waiter returned some time later and left x2 servings of the missing items obviously the rest of the meal had gone cold by now. I was ordered to go to the bar, whilst I was eating my tepid food, to pay the outstanding balance. It was agreed by the waiter it was OK to pay once I had finished my meal. Like a dutiful customer I went to pay the balance. I was told by two bar staff, one being graham that it was OK and that the balance had been waivered!!!. I went back to the table, to be challenged again by the server to pay the balance. One of our party members used the disabled facilities. She came out upset.... their was urine all on the floor and no toilet paper. Her trouser bottoms where soaked. Once AGAIN I returned to the bar to pay the balance. I asked to see the manager. 8 minutes later, guess who the rude server (the Manager) I found him aggressive and rude. I questioned the customer service I had received, the wrong information of the menu content, and consequently the price of my food ordered. The state of his customer disabled toilets was brought to his attention and my sisters disgusting toilet experience. Not once did I receive an apology........ I offered £2 of the £4 outstanding balance. And suggested the remainder wouldn't be paid and could be seen as a gesture of good will due to the poor service and total bad experience on this visit. At this point the manager called me a thief, took my picture on his body camera. Told me I was barred from the pub and I would be placed on 'pub watch'...... do I have anything to say positive about my visit to 6 Chimneys. YES THE DEPARTURE FROM THE BUILDING. I will be writing to JD Witherspoons head office regarding this experience and been categorised as a criminal and called a thief.....and had my photograph taken without my consent for 'pub watch'.....

Enjoyed a leisurely Sunday morning breakfast at the newly refurbished Six Chimneys. It's huge, so no issues finding a seat. Fast, friendly service. Definitely one of the best Wetherspoons I've been to for food quality!

Much better after renovations. Recommended

Quick service, lovely place. Would recommend

I was the last person to get served, and they let someone push in. Disgraceful from the six chimneys.

Standard "spoons " pub. Very large. Great prices and extensive choice of drinks.

I had high hopes with the refurb that this spoons would be great. When we first went in I enjoyed it and thought this could become a great base for me and my friends to catch up. However, the staff were rude to us, slammed our drinks on the table, when we ticked to have a straw on the app, and they didn’t bring us one so we asked for one we got the response “They’re at the bar but whatever…” and then had straws thrown on our table. Appalling. My friend is diabetic and had a bit of a funny turn and threw up, because the pub was full and they had the heating on (this even made me unwell). So we went to the beer garden, and discovered this was locked so we went to the front entrance. When we came to the entrance, the bouncer said “You can’t bring a glass out here” which is fine, but I explained my friend had had a funny turn due to being diabetic and said that she just wanted some air and some water, they then laughed at us and were mocking us. I’m not the sort to leave reviews, but I’ve come away from this experience quite upset, it is disgusting that my friend was unwell and explained her condition to just be laughed at and that as bouncers they didn’t think to seek medical attention (I thought they were trained in this?) Overall, I’d not recommend this. It’s been done up but it’s no different to before in terms of staff and the bouncers.

The ultimate Wetherpoons It has been revamped and is huge inside

very nice weatherspoons and the staff are very friendly with a smile and the food is very nice and the drinks are good price too

The joint has been expanded into the pub next door, so creating more seating for eating and drinking since my last visit. £3,000,000 spent. It needed it. It looks really nice, I'm sure the local Gurners will drag it back down!

I visited today for lunch, i placed my order at the bar. When my food arrived it was the wrong order. I asked to speak to a manager, she got my order right away and refunded my money no problem.

What a beautiful refurbishment, very busy but the staff were on it and working very hard, no grumbles whatsoever

Good food, not prices always enjoying going there.

Really open now they have extended it to the old bar next door.

Clean and tidy , no glasses or plates and half eaten meals left on the tables . Well done all , keep it up 👍🏻

It was a nice place The food and drinks were nice

I'll be frank, before the renovations, I wouldn't really go in, it had a vibe (common place for done of Wakefield's alcoholics) Post renovations, I'd gladly go back as a place to meet up.

Looks amazing since the extension. Food great and service excellent. Table service slow when it's busy, quicker to go to the bar but that's standard.

To tick another JDW off the list, I visited whilst working in the area and this is a large and very spacious venue. It's recently been refurbished and you could tell. I only had a soft drink but there's plenty of choice for those like something stronger. Friendly staff and no waiting, albeit early on a Thursday evening. I haven't scored the food as I didn't eat. Probably one of the biggest I've visited.

Ah good old wetherspoons never let's down with smell unwashed people an racists same place just bigger ,nice menu was full so some of seating areas were messy but they soon cleared so.could sit

Called in for a drink on a weekday just before lunch time , I tried to get served at the bar with staff behind it totally clueless who they were serving !! two staff behind the bar they had no idea who had been waiting the longest, one of them I think was an acting supervisor she was too busy telling staff to put ear pieces in & asking her friends for her car keys back !!!! after a long long wait I gave in & left. You have serious issues with staff training BIG IMPROVEMENT needed with your bar staff.

Long time since I've visited The Six Chimneys. Really like the refurbishment / expansion - plenty of room between the tables, so doesn't feel cramped like some of their other branches. Came in on Easter Monday 2024 for breakfast, just before 10:00. Not too busy and plenty of seats available, so was able to get a booth in the new section. Ordered a small breakfast with mushrooms and an American breakfast with black pudding, plus hot drinks. The app wasn't available for table service, so had to order at the bar. Staff were efficient and friendly and our meals arrived quickly. Yes, it's not a Gastropub, so yo get what you pay for. Food was tasty and good value. Will definitely come again.

First visit since the extension and refurbishment. Went late Saturday afternoon, reasonably busy. Poor service at the bar. The guy next to me asked for a Moretti and was told ' we don't do it'. He then pointed to the bottles of Moretti in the fridge cabinet, no apology. She then served me, poured the two pints I ordered, left to settle but disappeared for nearly five minutes. Ordered another pint of the same drink for arriving friend from a different server. Paid the two separate bar staff but the price per pint didn't match up.

Totally refurbished....looks great now. Food is the same as any other Wetherspoons pub, The menu is varied though to suit most people. Have to say it is good food for a pub chain. Lovely staff in this branch.

It is what it is but it is clean......

Recently refurbished and enlarged Spoons and to be fair they’ve done a great job Surprisingly they appear to actually have done some training……the service was excellent, the standards were good and £13 for two decent burgers….cant go wrong I really hope they keep these standards this high but somehow I doubt they will Would have been 5 star if it wasn’t a Spoons

Great pub . A very lot bigger as in the alterations and due to that increased the area of the pub for the better .. staff everywhere very polite and knowledgeable friendly maybe because of the building work newly opened . Very clean good food and beer . Got order wrong . Which I had to rectify. And paid for accordingly. But staff just carried on as normal. No ..thanks for owning up to their mistake. Xx otherwise very good around xx

Called into the chimneys today for a quick beer,friendly atmosphere, all staff when passing were polite and helpfull, Lucy and Cally both stopped and had a pleasant chat with my partner and myself. Would recommend a visit.

I had visited there with my older sister today and was disappointed with our food. The garlic bread pizza was burnt and my sisters chicken burger was discoloured and the meat was crunchy and chewy too. I had ordered a burger which had a long black hair baked into the melted cheese. We couldn't finish our meals due to this,what a waste of money. Our visit was disappointing to say the least.

Went to spoons today after my shift at work with my younger sister, we were excited to eat there after it had reopened. But It was disappointing to say the least. The chicken Burger I ordered was discolored, chewy and crunchy. The garlic bread was burnt and my sister found a hair in her burger! I'm honestly surprised we didn't get sick from it! Disgusting! We finished our drinks and left, we didn't want to stay any longer. We did not want to go through the hassle of speaking to manager after manager and we definitely didn't want to be offered any more food. Bad chicken and burnt bread is the last thing I want to eat after I have finished a shift at work!!

Very nice meal at the refurbished Six Chimneys. Will be visiting again

Has all weather spoons excellent value drinks, good service and know your not going to get ripped off.

First time since it was modified, place is twice its original size.Ordered two fish and chips with mushy meals, pint of Corona and pint of.coors light.Bar was really busy with about 10 customers waiting to be served.Bar staff were apologetic and efficient, quickly taking orders and serving drinks.Food came ten minutes later ,by a smiling waiter.Half way thro the meal,he came back to make sure everything was good.Food was very good.

Always a fan of spoons, but now they have revamped it, it's even better. Such a nice place, quick service and food

Busy, a little overcrowded, but a decent Wetherspoons pub. New beer garden looks good.

Good ol chimneys has a great selection of food and drinks for reasonable prices. First time in since the refurbishment and it all looks great

One of the standout features of The Six Chimneys is its exceptional staff.

Additionally, the cleanliness and modernity of the toilets are a testament to the pub's commitment to maintaining high standards of hygiene and comfort for its patrons.

Went in Wednesday, looking forward to trying some Real Ales in their Beer Festival, only 1 on in the Festival. #Joke

Vast Wetherspoons, friendly new staff, learning the ropes, newly refurbished. Definitely worth a visit. Good value food and hot drinks as always.

The place is a lot bigger now, looks great inside and has a big beer garden.

Didn't have food but it looked good. Recently been refurbished and they've done a good job with a large outside area to the rear

It's your average wetherspoons pub, service could be a touch quicker but I'm not in a rush. It feels a fair bit nicer now that it's been refurbished as well which is nice, worth checking out if you haven't been since it reopened

It had a mass overhaul and they knocked through in to the old pub next door. I have edited my negative review to a much more favourable review. Its great now, so much brighter and more areas to sit. I'd recommend going in now.

Tables not clean on top and the bases.

I always feel good there, nice wine, positive atmosphere, its close to mine. Amazing chicken wings, pizza. Always good breakfast, nice service. We had breakfast after new opening, very nice as always, beautiful design and chair, toilets are nice as well.

There was no screen?! How do we watch football with the really nice chicken wings?! Rubbiiisshhh

At last after 5 months refurbishment the 6 Chimneys has re-opened. It's now much more in keeping with other Wetherspoons pubs - it's large and spacious, well-decorated and with a large beer garden. The place was packed out but we managed to find a seat. However, I was so uncomfortable due to the arctic blast coming out of the ceiling air vents I had to move. I really hate having to sit in a pub with my coat on,( like most people were having to do) but it was so cold. I know energy is expensive so they can't afford to heat it, but why have freezing cold air swirling about instead.! I moved nearer to the serving area which was a bit warmer but there were loads of washing up bowls piled high with dirty crockery on the floor - not a pretty sight. I know the staff are probably finding their feet, and it was busy but it looked terrible (and a trip hazard too I should think). We decided to move on elsewhere. Such a shame, but we'll be back when it's warm enough to sit outside.

Nice refurb. Staff smart and efficient. Nice to see families enjoying a meal together. Things to work on: - limit access for the vino's. - address the glass collection area. As with many Spoons it cluttered and noisey

Cleared table while at bar took all glasses ie reading and asked why they barred me

First time at the new venue. Very impressed. But !!!! The food... burger freezing.. chips hot. A meal deal with drinks. They took ages. I understand that they are very busy... food should be at least warm. Glasses for Guinness and coors the usual spoons pots. Not branded...disappointed again. One other thing to say tho.... staff are good.

Just done this place up, Very nice place. Great food and drink.

Temporarily closed, reopens 20 Feb 2024

Brilliant customer service especially from one of managers lucy. Cheap and friendly

Shut! Rediculous, I went on the app to look at the menu, no mention that it was closed for the winter for refurbishment.

Another great JDWs in Sheffield and cool air con. & Great G&Ts

Went yesterday morning for the rugby service was great food was nice and fast highly recommended

You get exactly what you pay for and I'm a fan. Great value and perfectly edible food.

Came in today with my dog. Understandably, no dogs are allowed in the venue so we sat in the beer garden. We ordered food and drinks and upon bringing our drinks, the staff member told us we couldn’t sit with our dog in the beer garden. Nowhere does it say dogs aren’t allowed in the beer garden, only inside, and we were paying customers. Not only that, but he was sat under the table being well behaved. We had to leave without any of our food and drinks and won’t be coming back. I suggest you improve your signage.

It’s spoons, you know exactly what you’re getting from the start. Everything is pretty average but I love the convenience of ordering on your phone and being able to just sit and chat whilst everything is prepared for you.

Cheap beer and large good place

Called in on Saturday afternoon. After waiting to get served I was treated to two female members of staff washing glasses and shouting at each other. Far too busy stacking glasses and joking with each other to attend to customers, while two barmen were rushed of their feet. I will not be rushing back

Called in for a catch-up with my Neice. Cheap and cheerful. One staff member looked like she was in a mood and was quite grumpy. But all the other staff were nice and friendly. We did eat here. Slight mistake with my order, but they were willing to rectify it, but it meant sending my meal back... then, meaning we wouldn't be eating together, so I chose to decline their offer. Cheap drinks 2x 2 double pink gins and bottled Tonics £10 odd pence.

Felt uncomfortable on my own. Coffee from machine was horrible, tasted like weak instant. Free refills apparently but left most of 1st cup! Never again

Food was cold and unpleasant, the staff were incredibly rude. The larger tasted awful and took just under an hour to be brought over. Overall an awful experience at this particular spoons.

nasty place. Always messy. Food is weatherspoons can't go wrong

Used to visit often but now stopped and decided to spend my money elsewhere. Food and drinks are okay prices are good but the place is always unclean and shabby desperately needs a clean and a refurb got sick of having to clean my own table. Last time I sat on a bench type chair it was broken and had completely come away from the wall I’d rather spend a bit more money and have food and drinks elsewhere which is a shame as the Wetherspoons is in a good location to stop after a day shopping

Had a nice breakfast and the free tea refills are great.

Visited for an afternoon beer and was left pretty disappointed, I prefer to try the guest beers in wetherspoons wherever I go as I am not a lover of lager. The first beer I asked for was Acorn gold and was told sorry they had run out, so as I'd already paid decided to try a pint of Spitfire and that was also not available, as a last resort I asked for a pint of Abbot ale as the only other guest ale was Acorn old moor porter which I didn't fancy and low and behold the answer was sorry but, no Abbot ale, at that point I gave up and asked for my money back and walked out, very poor service in my opinion, as a result I walked into the nearby Black Rock pub and enjoyed a drink there instead. Wetherspoons management in the Six Chimneys need to check stock levels better to avoid this happening to other people.

Not the best spoons ive been in out of the 131.. 😬

Didcot nt have what I wanted, then when the food came. it was cold chips were like they came out of freezer into fryer and back out again coffee machine had run out of milk when I told 😐 manager she said she would tell the cook we left worst meal for a very long time

It's a wetherspoons, what more do I need to say..

Only 3 stars because it need good clean.Typical spoons.

Great place to grab a bite to eat, lovely meals, and fast service.
