The best restaurants serving British food in Wakefield North Wakefield Yorkshire and The Humber

Write your review Below average been coming to this joint for over a decade. It's gone down hill. The pie whilst full of m8 was flavourless and boring. Wattery peas, wattery gravy and a melancholy chip to round things off (see picture). The mint sauce was served at groin level to top things off. Wireless was clearly knackered to add to the desperate ambience. I will have a kebab in future. Bin bag changed regularly mind.

So, this is a wonderful pub. We've been coming here for more than 30 years. The inside is beautiful, atmospheric, historic, not to be missed. The beer is generally very good. So why only three stars? I'm afraid that one particular member of staff really shouldn't be working in a customer facing environment. I feel it's probably unfair to describe the person or specify the rudeness as maybe they were having a bad night, and I'll let other customers make up their own minds. However, for us, this person spoiled our evening somewhat and made us feel unwelcome. We did notice that it wasn't just us that encountered such behaviour, other customers experienced it as well. This person needs to reconsider their attitude, manners and approach to customer service. We will return for drinks at some point in the future, but if the rudeness happens again we'll take our custom elsewhere. Such an excellent pub deserves better.

Lovely drinks, great staff and amazing atmosphere! Not many pubs like this are left 😍

Best fish shop in wakefield. Excellent service Excellent food . Polite respectable staff friendly atmosphere. And those who say its always full. Think about it for a minute wouldn't be full if it was no good.. . Apple pies nice toooo.

Good pub, huge choice of beers for beer lovers, they are excellent and cheaper than in France. I haven't tried the cooking unfortunately, but I don't like the food in supermarkets like Sainsbury's, too much fat, too much processed food, white bread, disgusting pastries full of sugar everywhere. I've seen a lot of obese English people. I'm not surprised given the food on offer, very hard for vegetarians or vegans.

Nathan was so welcoming and made sure we got seated during a very busy period. We are very grateful for the hospitality he showed us. 10/10 would recommend
