The Three Houses in Wakefield

We visited here and took friends for lunch, the main server we had she was friendly, bubbly and chatty, however the second one who brought our food was miserable and gave the impression she didn't want to be there. (This is the main reason we scored lower than we would of) The food choice is good, we had the creamy garlic mushrooms, the prawn cocktail and the tomato soup which were all nice and the ones which should be hot, were. For the mains we had the Sunday roast, one asking for extra meat at 2.50 and got a small slice, not impressed, and we had the cauliflower cheese extra and it was mainly stalks not florets so not impressed and also the food wasn't as hot as would of liked. The place was clean and the service was quick, but we were not completely satisfied. Not sure if we would go again.

Went for late Sunday lunch, beef seemed like it was slow cooked and not roasted in the oven, to top it off, there was no veg available other than cauliflower! …..unfortunately we only found this out when the meal arrived. If we had been told they had run out of veg when ordering we could have chosen something else. The other meal was a steak and ale pie, tender beef but over cooked! Waitress was not attentive and the welcoming message in the pub was an abrupt ‘have you booked’ despite the pub being quiet! Most of the staff didn't seem that happy to be working there! We were extremely disappointed given the good facebook video and it was not cheap! Certainly would not recommend or go back!

Our waitress Mya was very attentive nothing was a trouble

Fabulous little find from online. Pub was alot bigger than expected , very friendly staff and the food was delicious - scampi and Three burger. Large portions and well presented. Very happy will definitely return after seeing the vast menu 😊

Food very poor not as described on the menu. Service poor took an hour to be served,only 4 people in the restaurant. Won't be eating there again

Lovely breakfast served Saturday and Sundays. Worth a visit as lots of choice and fresh ingredients

Just had lunch at The Three Houses on Barnsley road Wakefield and we both had a really enjoyable meal. After seeing from the recent reviews the place has had new management and it seems to be doing really well. I had the steak and ale pie with chips and my partner had the steak sandwich and fries. We were both very satisfied with our choices and will definitely be returning. Our bill with a non-alcoholic drink each was under £35. Nice friendly service, good atmosphere and surroundings.

Great pub and even better food. Can highly recommend.

Lovely evening meal out tonight with friends, for steak night. Can't wait to come back and try the Sunday roast with my fiance.

Lovely pub, great food and friendly staff👍

Needed pub food, not been to the Three Houses for a good few years, I don’t think I’ll be leaving it as long again. Food was absolutely amazing, staff were good too. Scoth Egg starter, never had before in a meal, quality runny yolk, what a belter. Then a Barnsley Chop, off the Specials, cooked to perfection, decent size too. Timothy Taylor’s to wash down. Definitely recommended!

Great cheesecake for two and lovely, approachable staff

We, a group of retired design engineers who worked together at some time, chose The Three Houses Inn for our regular lunch meet, on my recommendation, and we were not disappointed! The range of beers and menu selections satisfied all tastes and we were unanimous in voting TTHI our favourite venue yet! Quality oozed from all the dishes prepared for us and all seven of us present were well satisfied, all but one being tempted to taking all three courses from a thoughtfully prepared menu. Do hold onto that chef!

Surprisingly middle of the road. Expected better

Excellent pub very nicely furnished and great atmosphere. Would highly recommend

A great place to go for a family Sunday dinner. Staff were fantastic and food was great too. Definitely going back and would recommend to anyone.

I came with my almost 19yr old son on Saturday 19th April 2025. The food was absolutely outstanding!!, Massive complements to the chef!! ALL (yes all!!) the staff were friendly, attentive and gave the whole experience 💯 from start to finish. I would highly recommend this establishment xx

We didn’t know it was pie night but we were happy to have the pie but saw others given a different menu too which would have provided us with a wider choice. The menu took ages to arrive! The portion wasn’t very big but the presentation looked good sadly my pie was dry . I had the chicken and ham which I think had been reheated so the meat was very tough. If this had not been the case I am sure I would have enjoyed it but it was very dry despite a small jug of gravy between two not really enough. The rest of the meal was tasty so gutted that my pie was not. Bar staff are super friendly and welcoming but it was difficult to get the waitress attention.

Excellent value and delicious pies. Looking forward to going again.

Fabulous pie night again. Great value, excellent service, food tasty as always. Great to see the local doing so well. Keep up the great work!

Went for pie night , pie steak and crust burnt all I could taste was burnt foods , also offered ooddles of gravy on Facebook page hardly any on the plate had to ask for more to moisten the crust . Manager of the pub no where to been seen was short staffed ,& the young lad and lass running the pub and running round like headless chickens.also stock still on show on the floor probably from the delivery from this morning not a good look and also trip hazard , Shame as heard a lot about the food but we didn’t even have the dessert as this put us off and now would not return .

The three Houses is one of my local pubs. The new proprietor has worked extremely hard to improve the venue. The food is better than ever. We sampled the new spring menu and we were not disappointed, well prepared, pleasing choices and good to taste. Not forgetting sensible pricing. The staff are pleasant and accommodating. Well done.

We tried out the new menu the homemade runny scotch egg was amazing could eat it every week! 🤤 The staff couldn't have been more attentive they were amazing customer service. We ordered the ribs and lamb pie special both were amazing and the dog even got a dog bowl of ham, mash, peas, carrots and gravy, so glad to see the threes back to it's former glory!

It's very rare to get great service nowadays however the service that we received from the moment we entered the pub till when we left was warm and immaculate. To top it all, the food was so delicious and beautifully presented. Thank you and we will definitely return

We came for the Sunday roast which was fantastic. The service was brilliant and the food was delicious. Will definitely be back again soon :)

Beautiful Sunday lunch with fabulous service too. We’ll be back very soon. Thank you!

Very underwhelming. Rather spend your time drinking than eating.

This was a return lunch visit and was just as fantastic as the first. The staff are really nice. The environment is really nice. The food is excellent. The prices are really competitive. I had enough food left over to take home for tea.

Lovely food and well cooked and portion size was good . Will come again

Lovely meal great staff in the restaurant

Wonderful food, friendly staff. Definitely coming again

I enjoyed my meal I had when I visited the pub recently for lunch with 5 friends for social get together

Excellent food.. great wine … well needed today

Was in the vicinity needed food so called in wish we didn't , Sunday £14-75 pub looked ok so thought food was going to be good I was wrong small potions roast potatoes was hard over cooked beetroot thing was awful only two veg cauliflower was not cooked enough and they're vinaigrettes type of beetroot thing no carrots just two veg won't be going again spent over £120 not worth the money go some we're better folks.

Not been to eat here before but will definitely come again. Mya was brilliant, excellent service

Really lovely place with first class service. The food was very nice and the prices were realllu sensible. Recommend this to everyone.

I worked here from school to sixth form to uni. I am now 60! Beautiful building and of historic value. Food was really good. Typical Pub fare with a twist and great presentation. Very friendly staff and atmosphere. Reasonably priced and great selection of food. Would highly recommend.

Really enjoyed our first meal and would definitely return!

Amazing food and atmosphere at a very affordable price. Staff are lovely.

Lovely food and great service. Friendly staff

5 stars all round - what a fantastic job the new owners have done bringing this place back to life. Great atmosphere and can’t wait to spend time enjoying the outdoor terrace in summer! Great selection of drinks and the best gravy you have ever tasted!!

A lovely old building that is cosy and quirky inside. A good selection of tasty food at very reasonable prices.We really enjoyed our visit and will certainly be back!

Fabulous food good value for money well done

First time here the food was amazing , staff very friendly and great pub atmosphere. Very fair prices for the food and drinks. Will definitely be back.

We had the steak pie. It was fantastic the whole plate was excellent. Absolutely good value for money.

First time visit since new owners took over. We went for Sunday lunch to celebrate an elderly friend's birthday. The food was excellent and the staff were friendly and very attentive. All 3 courses were good value for money and I'm pleased to say that the new owners have raised the standards after previous owners had let things slip. Thanks for a really good Sunday afternoon.

8 of us enjoyed a meal on a Friday evening. From booking right through staff very helpful. Nice ambience, good food, can certainly recommend. Susan Abbott

Another great meal at the Three Houses. Went to pie night on Tuesday night, four of us. Chloe remembered my favourite drink from being there before. Fabulous meal and great service. Often eat there on other nights, nothing is too much trouble for the polite and friendly staff. You will enjoy great food there and all at reasonable prices. 😊😊 Avril Edge

Nice friendly atmosphere not overcrowded, pets welcome

Outstanding food Lovely caring staff

Fabulous Three Houses in Sandal, under new ownership and they’re really making a positive impact! Wonderful return to form for the pub! Well done to all the colleagues and the new owners 👍

Had the mixed grille and wow! Massive portions of fresh, well cooked and presented food Highly recommended!

Excellent food and a wonderful service. We will definitely come back again.

The quality of the food is very good. All dishes are yummy. Not to mention, the service is good as well.

Absolutely beautiful Sunday lunch, lovely cosy surroundings and Kara who served us was the perfect host.

We went Xmas eve The staff despite being very busy were very friendly and ready with a smile. Food was great. We have tried twice to go ba ck but unfortunately had to change our plans due to other commitments.

Lovely stop for lunch, our dog was welcomed, food delicious 😋

Fabulous first visit to The Three Houses! Food was delicious and one of our party was not only gluten free but dairy free too and they bent over backwards to help with that too. Definitely going again! 10/10 from all 5 of us!

Amazing food! Will definately return and highly recommend.

We love the atmosphere here and the food us wonderful.

Awesome pie night brilliant value

Lovely Sunday lunch with friends. Great food and atmosphere

Excellent food and extremely accommodating staff

We didn't have food but it looked good and popular.

Lovely meal during a catch up with friends.

Absolutely amazing start to finish, came here on a recommendation from a friend, greeted on entry and served and ordered in a very timely manner, staff could not be more helpful, and more importantly food was best we have had in a long time, we opted for the scotch egg starter which we were told was a new item, it didn’t disappoint , unreal flavour and perfectly soft egg. Coming back again

Good food, good service really happy to see the Three Houses buzzing again.

Unbelievable steak pie!!! Lovely pub and great staff

Great meal, I would definitely come again

Excellent food and service. So friendly

Lovely local pub with a welcoming and warm atmosphere, beer garden all ready for the summer and although haven’t eaten here yet the menu looks delicious so I’m sure it won’t be long before we do!

Fantastic atmosphere, great service, fab friendly staff 😊

Lovely food, service and atmosphere!

Super home-cooked food. Lovely night out with the girls. Restaurant and bar had a great atmosphere.

MEGA pie night for the whole family 😆😆. Unbelievable portion, super veg on the sides, great service; the Threes is BACK BABYYYYY 🤜🤛🎉🎉🎉🚀

Lovely food, great service will definitely be back

Went for Sunday breakfast. We were shown to table by a guy - probably the manager, who took the lunch menus off the table - we expected to be given breakfast menus but he just wandered off. We were left there for approx 15 minutes until a lovely waitress came and asked us if we’d like to order. Obviously we couldn’t, not having seen the menu. Finally furnished with a menu, my husband ordered the full English with poached eggs and I asked for avocado and tomatoes on toast with a poached egg, only to be told that we could only have fried eggs (despite the fact eggs Benedict, Royale and Florentine were all on the menu). The waitress said she’d previously been told off for putting poached eggs on the order instead of fried. Food came out. My avocado on toast was one small slice of bread with 1/2 avocado sliced on top. No tomatoes. I asked where the tomatoes were. The waitress apologised and went to get them. She returned with a cold salad tomato, cut in half on a plate. I’ve seen better food presentation from a 5 year old. This cost £7! The full English was ok. Streaky bacon was undercooked though and sausages were poor quality catering type. All in all, the best thing about the breakfast was the 2 cups of tea. Total bill c £34. We won’t be visiting again. Abysmal at best, sorry!

Been here in previous years (before the current owner too over) and it was nowhere near to the standard it is today ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The breakfast was amazing value for money. Really high quality ingredients, the half breakfast was plenty for us ☺️ The atmosphere was really pleasant with cosy music too. Can be hard to find a nice dog friendly pub but this was amazing. Would definitely recommend to others 🐶🐶

Booked for Sunday lunch just 2 of us with our dog. Where they sat us was a bit awkward with the dog as felt she was in the way as sat in the middle, so always someone walking past us so we couldn’t relax. We ordered traditional roast dinner which was served on a small plate and I was expecting the vegetables to follow in a serving dish. But they didn’t and on looking it was just one carrot and peas that was served under the slices of meat and a Yorkshire pudding. To be honest I was a bit shocked that it was just peas and one carrot! You would expect to get more vegetables than that with a roast dinner, on a carvery you are offered at least 5 choices of vegetables. The food tasted lovely but just lacked vegetables. I hope this gets fed back to the restaurant as it’s a shame as apart from this, the venue, the waiting staff and quality of food is lovely. It’s just put us off returning for Sunday lunch.

It’s been a number of years since we had a meal here and we weren’t disappointed this time. The lady that looked after our table was Charlotte who was amiable, helpful and friendly. She helped us with questions about the food and the wine and was patient and willing to explain. The atmosphere is very different from the last time in that it’s lively, friendly and welcoming. I had the fillet steak and my wife had the gammon. Both meals were of very good quality and cooked to order. The only personal issue was that the chunky chips were served with potato skins attached. This didn’t spoil the meals but our preference would have been for the chips to be without the skins. The house wines that we chose, a Malbec for me and a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc for my wife, were both of a very good standard. A very enjoyable experience

Went for Sunday lunch. The food choice was good. Service exceptional, our server Alex was very friendly and efficient.

Great choice for Sunday Lunch. Good food and great service. Our server Alex was excellent, helpful and very friendly. Could not recommend more.

Sunday lunch was tasty but not very big Service was good but our table was tiny and squeezed in where a table shouldn’t really be. Felt in the way which was a shame Nice pub but could do better

Really cosy pub with great food, beer and service. Went for a mid week meal and enjoyed the roaring fires and great food, beer and service. Great to see a pub like this in Wakefield bringing a touch of class and quality, will definitely be back👍
