Tourist attraction in Pontefract

“Interesting and informative to walk round. Steps for better viewing, well maintained for picnics on the grass. Special events so check their website. Cafe and toilets plus kids park, really good few hours! Car park nearby (I parked in morrisons as shopping after) and you can walk around the outside, on paths and over the road.”

“Was fortunate enough to catch this gem of a pub before it's demise really can't understand how a pub with great music reasonable priced beer and decent staff can't stay in business . Was made really welcome as an out of towner. If I'd gone to this boozer first I would have stayed all night.”

“They are incredible. Have incredible service and an unbeatable food taste I just got a ham sandwich and I didn't have wait not even two minutes for my food after ordering it they also have an amazing food prices. I would without a doubt get food from them all the time”

“Great service, always pleasant. Quality of product always fresh . Batter lovily.”

“Called in with my wife on Friday afternoon whilst visiting Pontefract. Lovely friendly landlady and a great selection of cask ales,will be back soon.”

“Lovely nature reserve to walk around. Good walking shoes/boots needed as the terrain is very varied and can be quite slippery if its been raining. But would definitely recommend.”

“Great food, well priced and dog friendly. The coffee (from Castleford based roasters Recent Beans) is superb, and they have a lovely outside area for sunny days. The milkshakes are also excellent! We love it!”

“Good quality food & efficient service, got exactly what I asked for can't ask for more really!”

“What a fantastic restaurant! We were a table of 17 and despite the numbers all the food was brought out efficiently and correctly. The food was delicious, and the staff ere lovely. The menu is very clear to understand for people with dietary requirements and allergies too. Will 100% be coming back!”

“wenr last night ,my first time and wow whot a place, gteat staff great food and fantastic turn defo coming back”

“Great coffee shop/cafe. Staff extremely friendly and welcoming - worth dropping in for a catch up with friends. Food value for money”

“I booked my holiday to Tenerife (Puerto de la Cruz) through Jason Bailey – Travel Counsellors and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Jason really took the time to understand what was important to me and came back with the perfect trip, all within the budget I wanted to spend. What I loved most was how easy he made everything and with no stress, just clear options and a holiday that suited me down to the ground. If you’re looking for a personal travel agent who knows his stuff and genuinely cares, I can’t recommend Jason enough. Whether it’s Tenerife, Spain, or anywhere else, Jason at Travel Counsellors is the person to go to for expert holiday planning.”

“Had a delightful meal here recently, staff couldn't have been more welcoming or accomodating. We forgot to specify that we were booking for a meal so there wasn't supposed to be food on that night but one of the staff swapped into her chef whites & cooked us up a delicious feast. Would absolutely recommend, baked camembert (both flavours) & the mussels were spot on!”

“A very well presented room, close to local amenities. Friendly and helpful service was provided by Carol on my arrival, and everything I needed was provided. Local cafes made up for the current lack of a breakfast option on the premises.”

“great staff very friendly and helpful booked with them for the last 5 years brill sirvice”

“Used Denman Tea Rooms today at the Pontefract wheel fest. Excellent food all day and very friendly staff. Would highly recommend.”

“Cracking beers , stouts , and at £3.50 a pint you can’t go wrong , friendly and welcoming, bloke behind the bar is great , good sense of humour.”

“Hosted my sons football presentation here lovely venue x”

“Tried here for a change because our local one closes Saturday tea time, for some reason. Good prices, really nice fish and friendly staff. Will definitely be coming back.”

“I just went in for a bite to eat. Portion sizes for a small meal are incredible value for money. Great flavours too. Staff are polite and friendly. It's such a little gem of Castleford. Especially under it's new management. I recommend the panini and chips.”

“Had a great time here today. Got here for 10am and parked (£3.00). Two outdoor parks one free and one £3 for over 2s. Not quite sure why you need to pay for this park but anyway we did and the beach and water was great too. Says no paddling or inflatables but no one took notice.”

“This pub is local to me but I never really go in when passing by. Today I thought I’d give it a try and it did not disappoint. I had the hot beef baguette with home made chips (which is something you don’t see much these days) which was really tasty with generous portion sizes. Great value, and the staff were really nice too. I will definitely be coming here more now. I sat outside, but the pub was really nice inside too.”

“A lovely area with lots of trees and footpaths. There were plenty of wild flowers just beginning to open. Lots of footpaths with dog walkers.”

“Beautiful food and also great vegan options, lovely staff”

“Would like to say a big thank as I left my phone here and got it back . Fantastic. And I always use this place as it's fairly price and good selection of beers”
