The best restaurants in Wakefield North Wakefield Yorkshire and The Humber

Went for a friends birthday bottomless brunching, staff were all lovely despite it being so busy. Food went down well with everybody, was really good

Having been ripped off royally in Cornwall I was pleased to find a genuine meal deal. I’d prefer cod but the deal was haddock so haddock it was. The food was good, the fish was fresh and the chips were tasty. The bread came buttered. We got mushy peas on the side. The servers were friendly and the food was delivered promptly. They happily took credit card payments. The cafe is comfortable and the ambiance was pleasant.

3 ladies visited the restaurant and 3 ladies were not impressed with the food, service or the over-priced drinks. The steak was inedible with a steak knife, fish and chips tasteless and chicken meal was tasteless. We put a review on their website and were instructed by the owner not to come back! Recently Sept 2024 one of the ladies received a text from a restaurant "Y Brasserie". On enquiring if this was the same restaurant a woman answered the phone and told me in a very rude manner not to ring again when I explained the above. I understand this is the wife of the owner but not sure? I asked not to be text messaged again and she rudely told me never to ring them again! The number rang twice on my phone and I have since barred the number. Don't worry Yorkshire Brasserie/Y Brasserie we have no intention of returning! I understand the owner of this restaurant in Wakefield was known in Leeds to have a similar type restaurant which I allegedly understand went bust?

this place is bad boy icl flew down w the boys n it didn’t disappoint n im someone who takes pride in good food so kasims i will be returning

Unlike poncey Leeds, Wakefield town centre is still full of small, independent, unpretentious cafes. This is our favourite, and before the pandemic, we used to travel here from Leeds regularly, mainly to get the ace vegan breakfast. We recently returned, and were so pleased that it survived the multiple lockdowns, and is still serving great food at bargain prices. There's been a change of ownership, with the super-friendly manager buying the place, and still doing a great job. She is such a lovely, friendly woman, and runs the cafe fantastically. It's been fully refurbished, and looks really nice, while still retaining the same character. There's seating outside too. They cater for all diets, and the vegan breakfast is £7, including tea or coffee - you struggle to get avocado on crumb for that in Leeds! They do some great cakes too. If you're in Wakefield, it's not far from the bus station, and definitely worth a visit. It's even worth a day out! Can't recommend this lovely cafe enough :)

Been in Mama Clucks a few times before and been overwhelmed at the quality of their food and their rum cocktails. That’s where the good news stops. It has been taken over and there is no alcohol served any more so that was disappointing. But not as much as the food and the service. My friend had the chicken curry which was bland and contained carrots and potato and a few measly pieces of chicken, full of bones which had clearly been microwaved instead of been freshly prepared. When she questioned this they called from the kitchen to say more was on its way! So why not serve more to start with? They also had no vegetarian option for me, as advertised on the board. Now run by a couple of disinterested staff who didn’t even offer extras like gravy or mayo until asked for it. Also the already small place is now full of what looks like office furniture! Grey cabinets replace seating areas and there are 4 filing cupboards along the back wall which is bizarre! . Very disappointing. It can hardly be called authentic Jamaican/Caribbean food any more and I mourn the loss of what was a great little eaterie in Wakefield. Needless to say, will not be going again 😢

Dropped in here as we had 45 mins between trains. Beautiful pub and friendly staff and regulars. Good real ale and wine consumed.

Not what I ordered arrived at my house

Busy pub. Got what I expected and enjoyed it.

The paninis and the milkshakes are one of the best so far i had in Wakefield and the customer service by Aryan is excellent

It's a good place to go on a weekend plenty of games and stuff but I tried going on a Tuesday, and it wasn't open like it advertised

chips where very greasy burger was over cooked and spicy I can't eat spicy food waiting 1 and half hours to be disappointed not happy with today's service

Dirty tables and floor. No one made made any effort to clean anything. Slow service. Some sauces missing. Worse than normal

Called in for a coffee before the train south. The friendly barista made me an excellent double shot flat white.
