The best restaurants in Wakefield Yorkshire and The Humber

My friend and I were out for lunch today. We ordered pizza, arancini and courgette fries. The food was very good. A nice surprise was the new dish (bruchetta) sent by the head chef. The service was friendly as always. The restaurant clean and atmospheric. We will return again soon :)

You always know what you're getting in Greggs! Steak slice for me every time but I wish it was bigger! Coffee is good too and I don't feel mugged when I get one!

Regular diner here and have had mixed experiences. Sometimes the food is not up to much, sometimes it is OK. It is always priced a bit more than it is worth. The service varies too and can be slow, even when they are not busy. Today my Saturday treat was very disappointing. The food was poor. The desert, at £9.50, was not edible. I ordered "Classic Affogata" which came as a cold sludge of ice cream in a wine glass. No evidence of any espresso or any liqueur. Clearly someone read the recipe but had no idea about execution. Serving today was a male waiter who is a bit scary. Have been served by him before but not sure I would ever want to be served by him again. I held back the service charge which I never usually do. This was partly because of the strange server but also because I wasnt going to fight over the cost of the desert I didn't eat. (Still shocked that they could charge almost £10 and serve something as horrible as that!) There is not a lot of competition in Wakefield but this restaurant will have to ask some serious questions about quality, service and pricing if they want to survive where so many places close down.

the milk cake is the best thing i have ever put in my mouth i believe i might have a problematic addiction to it. the dubai chocolate is a small tiny disc, not worth £3.50 imo but it was nice, just ordered another milk cake and some chai, cannot get enough

The tea rooms are in a stunning location and make a great destination for a walk. We walked up from the car park in Lynmouth, it's a about 2 miles along the path. The walk was lovely along side the river which is a fast flowing stream. The path is challenging in places and a little rugid. But having a great destination drives you on. Great staff and good food. One highlight was seeing a Dipper (a small rare bird).

not cheap, but good seasonal rotation of stock including garden, gifts, pets, crafts and cookware. Café has good service and is ideal for a quick drink and a snack but do have a decent menu.

Fantastic large outdoor playground and green, loads of benches. We enjoyed a couple whilst the kids had a great time 👌🏻

Called in for lunch after a lovely walk around Newmillerdam. Sat outside in the sunshine with our 2 dogs with a nice view of the water across the road. Staff were super friendly, especially the guy who I assume is the chef and a young blonde girl working behind the till (sorry, didn’t get names). The food was lovely, I had the chicken burger and my husband had a toastie, best bit was the chips! No complaints at all, a lovely little spot :)

Nice and quiet. Lovely set. Because of using dummy waiter they need to work out on how to keep the food hot(temperature).

Was rather offended why my son who has down syndrome politely waited at the bar. I got served before him even though he was first. I then was told that even though he was first he had to wait until the regulars get served first. When I said that’s not right it should be first come first served I was told it doesn’t work like that as the regulars go in every day. I’ve never heard this before

Got delivery from here. It took longer to get to me than initially stated then when I did get my food some items were missing, the food was barely warm and the drinks were room temperature. Won't be ordering from here again.

Just called in for lunch on Thursday. Nice environment although a bit on the cool side. Good choice of home cooked food. Wife hD the meat pie with chips and peas. Pie was excellent, nice pastry and good portion of meat. Chips nicely cooked, triple cooked I think. I had yorkshire pudding and pork sausages. Reasonably priced but would have been happy to pay more for better quality sausages, they said no one else had complained so maybe its just me. Definitely worth a visit and a bite to eat.

Best Takeaway in Pontefract and Castleford area. Great variety and always tasty. Been ordering for years. Try a different place every now and again but always come back to Paradise. Can't be beaten.

Love going in for a very affordable coffee. And it is handy for a dependable quick meal. Always busy but not over so.

The service was impeccable, and the flavors unforgettable.
