The Union Bank in Wakefield - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Excellent busy bar fantastic music great bar staff craig knows how to spin those decks and jay knows how to run a good ship and has a relatively good team on the bar its the place to be on a nite for sure free admission all nite long competitively priced drinks and open until the small hours good all round pub the best in wakefield zero tolerance of drugs and trouble making it a safe place to be .

After my previous visit I went back recently and there has been some improvement. There was a smarter looking person behind the bar who stayed there to serve drinks and even better the locks and doors in the Ladies toilets have now been fixed/replaced. The pub was warm with good music and a little busier than before. A definite improvement all round so will continue to call in.

First time back in this pub in months & it’s such a shame it’s gone down hill again only plus side is the pub is warm that’s where the positives stop. Bar staff took our order we had to pay then she gave us our drinks, no food anymore, no atmosphere, few locals swearing away in conversation talking to the pub manager at the side of the bar, toilets one out of order the other the lock hanging off if I’d got a screw driver I would have fixed this myself for them, so sad it’s now couldn’t care less management running this place could be so much better.

After seeing the boards outside offering a January sale on certain drinks such as John Smiths and wine, we thought we'd give it a go. The staff seemed unaware of the advertised wine offer so there was a bit of quibbling (after all that was the reason we'd gone in there) but it was reluctantly sorted out, by the uninterested staff which didn't make us feel at all welcome. Apart from the unfriendly staff the other thing I didn't like was that both the Ladies toilets had broken locks/doors which really need sorting out. However, on the plus side the pub was comfy and warm , the music was good and not too loud ,so we may go back and try it again.

Absolutely disgusting there was 2 rats running about in the glass wash area door staff had white residue around their nostrils very slow service and ill mannered staff been in once since and only thing that changed was no sign of the rats but obvious door staff still snorting and same god damn rude staff .

AMAZING STAFF! Treat us with so much respect and even let us in on a few deals that were going on! Couldn’t think of anywhere better!

Lovely establishment. Staff really friendly, cheap drinks, can’t recommend highly enough. Come here very often and always pleased.

On entrance very clean and warm Bar man very friendly and quick service Excellent priced drinks TV and music at reasonable level Will come here again

Came for quiz on Sunday, good atmosphere . Drinks are really cheap and plenty of things to choose from

Lovely place to go for a drink and watch sport,all the staff are brilliant, we have a great time when we go.

Called in to watch the football the pub was quite busy but they did not have any John Smiths on again which appears to happening a lot now as this has happened to us previously It’s advertised as food being available Sundays but something must have been wrong with kitchen as quite a few people were going out for takeaways & bringing them back to eat inside. No toilet paper in both ladies toilets had to ask the bar staff to sort this out. My lager also tasted like vinegar, it’s a shame the standards are slipping because it’s decor is great & drink prices are really good value ( when they have what you want )

Very cosy and chilled out, cheap drinks and lovely staff. Came to watch the sport on the big tv and Had a Good cheap meal too.

Went to the union bank last week and watched the football. Wow it was an amazing atmosphere and a great big tv so picture was perfect. It was so good we stayed for food and the menus was spot on, I had katsu chicken with rice and I thought it was spit on, the wife had the 3 small plates and couldn’t finish it, so I polished it off the wings were to die for. Can’t wait for the premier league to start back as I will be returning. Thanks so much

Came in for the England match on Friday, class atmospheres and the biggest screen i have seen in a pub. Definitely be back for the Tuesday game.

Came out for the football was a great atmosphere very busy pub also cheap drinks and great food Definitely visit again

Cant supply drinks advertised on a weekend what sort of management doesnt order in to meet demand on a weekend then get ignored for 10mins while barstaff stand back chatting hats off to kirsty though she stepped up to the mark but was too late due to poor service from others let other bars have my money instead

Bit of a different review from me, can’t comment on daytime or food but I can say the DJ playing tonight (Saturday) was absolute class! Had only nipped in during a pub crawl and didn’t leave till home time because the music was too good...

Visited here on the 2nd April 2022. I had bought my friends a round of drinks but one of them said his Coors tasted funny. I took it back and asked the man behind the bar if he could taste it for me please as...

Big shout out to James for making me feel welcome when coming in on my own. Ordered the chicken burger as always, never disappoints, would highly recommend! Great food and friendly staff, thanks for having me!

His is my local and the food and drinks are spot on the service is great highly recommend. I had triple cheese burger and for starters had 3 starters as a mix.

Called in for drinks with friends, bar staff friendly & helpful we ordered some food all this was enjoyable & would recommend this is very reasonably priced

To say we were not impressed is an understatement, we frequently visited the union bank under previous owners (craft union) twice weekly and the atmosphere was always friendly and the pub was always reasonably full. This was our first and probably the last time we...

So here's a live review, your music is fantastic, your DJ is very good, thoroughly impressed. Drinks are relatively good for the venue and time of night. Here's my issue, your bar implies friendly and to a certain extent I feel that, to another I...

Visited The Union Bank on a Saturday night, and what a party atmosphere this place has going! As soon as you walked in, you can see everybody enjoying themselves and dancing on the dance floor. DJ welcoming us as we entered, which felt nice and...

After reading a few reviews I was a bit sceptical about trying this pub for the first time.... but how wrong I was! Was served by one of the staff Jason I think it was. Made us feel very welcome and felt very safe during...

Very disappointed paying over £6 for the pie . Gluppy gravy n pie crust with one piece of meat . Was offered a dessert which I didn't want. That's was the only alternative. Very unsatisfactory indeed . Dont waste your money .

what a fantastic place once you get in !!, the decor, is beutiful & all the original features have been kept, apart form the upper deck that has been added, the drinks are very reasonably priced (just couple of quid for a pint of john...

My Daughter and I visit regularly on a lunch time and the food is really nice, not had a bad meal here. service is excellent and the staff are really friendly & chatty. it had a great atmosphere and is very inviting

Myself and my Fiance visited The Union Bank this December after shopping in Wakefiled. It had a great atmosphere as soon as you walk in and has kept the grandeur of the original building. The Food menu had a nice selection of options and we...

Visited during the day at weekend, a nice cosy pub with great value drinks and choice. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

Since this venue opened I have made it one of my regular haunts. However, last Sunday 16th December, I was enjoying the atmosphere, one of my mates came in and bought me a pint! When I looked the pint was only 2 thirds full, so...

Great atmosphere , lovely cocktails and food and the staff are always smiling and very helpful, will be coming in again for more cocktails and food :)

Our friends chose the venue for our night out and it was fantastic from start to finish! 2 for £9 on cocktails-Absolute bargain! Can’t wait to visit again. The staff were friendly and super helpful when I mislaid my bag.

We came as part of a work Xmas do and will definitely go back again! Amazing prices on all drinks (especially cocktails, which were lovely) Bar staff were very helpful and polite.

Lovely busy night with a great atmosphere at the weekends. Good prices on drinks too Would be good if the pool table could be used though as when I went people were sat on it & also looked like the upstairs was closed too which...

Quiet night Warm. And plesant More life at weekend Toilets clean and tidy Bar staff more then helpful
