Restaurants in Pontefract

Tu's Kitchen

The food is tasty and filling and the atmosphere is cosy and intimate, but the best part is that the owners are so affable and kind. You feel more like you're at your mate's eating something they whipped up for you rather than a corporate environment.

Big Bite's Pizza

Always fresh and always lovely!!! Love the pizzas .. crazy grill box is a good one!!! Salad always fresh too !!! Never waiting long for delivery and so lively in the phone !!! Thank you ?

Cromwells

Lovely little cafe. Had a coffee and a lemon meringue pie. My partner also had a coffee and carrot cake. Both of which were gluten free and lovely. Will come back.

Mamma Mia Pontefract

Had a gorgeous meal with family for our sons 16th birthday, food was amazing and very tasty, the staff were all fantastic. It was a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Papa Johns Pizza

I’ve recently been diagnosed with some intolerances that were effecting my health and my first obstacle was met today in ordering a takeaway. I rang around a lot of the big names who offered gluten free and vegan (dairy free) separately but couldn’t be done together? I tried Papa Johns hoping to find something and I did! I rang the Pontefract branch to double check everything and a lovely gentleman answered an reassured me what I was seeing what correct. When I collected my order the same gentleman served me and all I could do was thank him. He told me to always check on the app for the allergen and intolerance markers and to just ring if I ever place an order and want to adjust anything. Lovely service, thank you

La Rokka Mediterranean Kitchen

Great customer service from the get go. Booked a table for 12 of us to celebrate my mum's birthday. Sabri was great and so helpful and friendly with all of us. Lovely food and good value for money. Nothing was too much trouble. We will be back. Thank you ☺️

Farmer Copleys

There sausage rolls from the farm shop are amazing you can get them either frozen as a 4 pack or individual ones already cooked, on the pricey side but definitely worth the money.

Lanes Ladybalk Fish & Chips

came in yesterday for Cod & Chips twice, no Cod. so wife had Haddock & Chips & I had Battered Sausage and Chips. The Haddock and Sausage tasted as though left in warmer for a while. Batter soggy underneath. Used this place lots of times and allways good but today left disappointed.

Busy Bee Cafe

Just been here with my son after a long time of making do at other places whist on the road,and omg this is definitely the place to be for that growling stomach,absolutely perfect lovely staff as well ?

Baden’s Butties

Delicious, substantial butties (I had sausage and egg, my wife a bacon buttie) at good prices and friendly service. Nice little area outside where you can eat. A perfect start to the day before a long drive back to London!

Turnpike Brewers Fayre

Great value kid friendly place to go for breakfast. Aron, Chloe, Ellie and Jess were all very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed including activity packs for the kids.

The Blue Bell Inn

Lovely Sunday carvery located in a cosy village. Well presented country pub with friendly staff added to the amazing food. Constant changeover of Veg and Meats. Chef serving carvery was extremely friendly.

Chip Pan

Excellent fish and chips.
Really fresh and cooked to order.
Very generous portions.
Haddock was really fresh and cooked in beef dripping without the skin.
Had a turnover which is basically a Yorkshire fishcake. Two slices of potato with a generous section of fish sandwiched in between then battered .
The service was excellent. Such a friendly couple. Makes you want to return.
Thoroughly recommend to anyone and will return again next time we pass

Bobs Burger and Shakes

Ordered from Bobs Burgers And Shakes last night and everything was fantastic! The food arrived hot, fresh, and right on time. Portions were generous and full of flavor — especially the special Box . Packaging was neat and eco-friendly too. Definitely one of the best takeaways in the area!

Ego at The Beverley Arms, Ackworth

Very friendly, professional greeting.
Our waitress (Neve) was very polite, personable and attentive and served us very professionally. We had a couple of nice which makes a difference from other places we have dined.
Meal (Duo of Pork) was a little dry and was missing a sauce or jus which we discussed with Neve.
Otherwise, most enjoyable.

Carleton

Lovely pub with excellent vegan options including pizza, pie, and desserts. It's dog friendly too which is brilliant for me as I go everywhere with my little girl Agnes. Will be back again soon.

Pearl Dragon

My usual Chinese takeaway (of 15 years!) was closed so I tried this place. Bloody hell, what a lovely surprise! Delivered in 12 minutes on a Friday night, and the food was fantastic! Hot, delicious and presented beautifully. Highly recommended as clearly the new owners are doing a fantastic job. I will have a really tough choice in the future deciding between my usual or this place...

The Bosphorus Bistro

We recently visited The Bosphorous, it was our first night out since the birth of our son and we had the best night. The food was so tasty and the staff were so friendly, they really took the time to have a proper conversation with us. Best food I’ve eaten in a long time and that’s saying something coming from a classically trained chef.

Gelato Creamery Pontefract

Nutella waffles, it's all about that perfect balance between the warm, fluffy waffle and the rich, creamy Nutella weffle. It was delicious. Hope will see you again☺️?

Crusty Pizzeria

First time ordering recently as we've just moved in and couldn't be bothered to cook after a long day of unpacking and moving furniture.Can I just say, it was incredible. We only ordered one large meal (with a salad included) to share and it was ample for both of us.Really tasty and hot even though it was delivered. (We looked on the map afterwards and realised that it's just down the road - oops, we'll collect in future).Really impressed and I think that we'll be ordering again and again. 10/10.

Love this place for drinks however today we came for Sunday lunch. Honestly one of the best Sunday dinners had in a long time! Thank you so much! we will be back

Redchilli takeaway

Amazing customer service, they were keepin in contact with me he whole time and when I sent it to the wrong place the delivered it to me as soon as they could.Couldn't be

Shummi Chinese Takeaway

Food is always excellent and it's always nice chatting with the staff, been going frequently for a couple of years and never had an issue. I always pick up so I can't speak for delivery, but I thoroughly recommend Shummi.

Figo's

theyre busy with lots of competition around, the best mixed kebab with lots of value and good size portion, feeds 2 or 2 meals...cant fault it but do prefer the royal tandoori cuworth with tanddori chicken and fried onions makes that difference. personal preference..

Pizza & Kebab House

Ordered a regular dona kebab with pita and a portion of kebab meat.
The portion sizes were BIG.
The meat was good but not the best, i would definitely recommend it though.
The one thing that let it down and dropped it a star was the pita bread! The bread came in its own bag and was very dry and hard, im not sure if it was being in the bag that made it dry or if it was stale and maybe out of date but knowing what I know id say it was stale which is a shame.

Robin Hood Inn

Food is not offered here, but . . . the service from staff is amazing, a fabulous night out in a lovely setting and the atmosphere is always wonderful, and the best bit? Dogs are very welcome, I definitely recommend!

Alleyc'zam Cafe & Bar

Amazing place for any occasion! We had breakfast today and it was suburb quality and excellent value for money! Service was great and really friendly staff who couldn't do enough to ensure our visit was memorable. Will definitely go back for lunch and also a cocktail one evening. Well done Alleyc'zam, you've got it so right, you deserve to do well as you offer the best in the area!

The SPREAD at Darrington

Amazing food with variety of choices for everyone along side the daily special's, and incredible Sunday Roast's! The service is welcoming and homely and the drinks are spot on! Best Staropramen, Guinness and Landlord around. Highly recommend 10/10

Carleton Fisheries

Generous portion for a small portion of chips, lovely chips & the curry sauce was gorgeous! Service excellent! Definitely recommend! Presentation tale out chips was a 10/10!

Hillside Fisheries

my husband has lived in this village all his life and seen many owners come and go. the nicest fish and chips we've had by far. today's fish and the chips were outstanding. we'll done, keep it up

Church House

Hate karaoke but they have it in the other side now so did not bother me one bit second time I have been in since it has reopened will go again
The staff had really good banter

The Travellers Rest

This is my local pub and the vibes inside are always good can be busy at times but I think that’s a good sign. The prices are reasonable for a pub nowadays and the staff are always friendly and welcoming

Poplar Grove Fisheries

Travelled over from Leeds to try Poplar Grove Fisheries and it was well worth it. I had the special haddock, which you get to choose cod or haddock cooked perfectly. The chips were spot on, mushy peas lovely, and curry sauce fantastic. Staff were really friendly, place was busy as you’d expect, but a great experience all round.

CHINO'S Fish Bar

Fish & chips, other foods are always fresh and tasty. Portions are really generous. Friendly staff. The price is considerably cheaper than other shops, compared to Portion size and quality. I definitely recommend ?

DJ's Cafe/Patisserie

Really enjoyed our visit the food was good and so was the service, it was good to get a dressing on the salad not many places do that. I had tuna and cheese toastie on sourdough it was very tasty, we recommend this cafe.

Buttys

Took my order 10mins before they opened and I got the large breakfast and it comes with a hit or cold drink. Food was really nice everything cooked right so was a beautiful full English

Park View Fisheries

Very popular Chip shop and its easy to taste why, Only negative is the chip portions are a bit smaller than most but still very tasty never the less. Good choice, but remember to order non standard items when you first arrive. I always go for Spam fritter on the side as well.

The Olde Tavern

The Olde Tavern is a traditional two roomed pub. There is a large bar area and a nice separate room with a pool table. There is a wide selection of beers lager and cider but unfortunately no hand-pulled cask conditioned real ales. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and there is an outside seating area. I haven't tried the food so i can't comment. There is plenty of customer car parking.

Hilltop Sandwich Bar

I periodically place a large order for 40+ people, and every time it has been spot on, never a single item is wrong, and always delicious! The staff are pros, providing excellent service and satisfaction always!

The Viceroy Of Hemsworth

First time dining here and will definitely return! Friendly, welcoming staff, food was really nice and portion sizes were big. Lots to choose from on the menu and good prices too. Excellent service.

Bracken Hill Fisheries

Excellent fish and chip shop, very reasonably priced, choice of Cod or slightly cheaper Hake , Various vegetarian options , cooked in palm oil . Can't fault it .

Jolly's

Dont know pontefract all that well, called into this little cafe while there and what a little gem it is. I only had a sausage sandwich, wife had a bacon and brie panini with salad, everything made/cooked fresh and absolutely beautiful. The owners were very nice, noticed a few people coming in that were obviously regular visitors which is also a good sign. Will definitely call in here again on our next visit to Pontefract.

Fish bites

Fantastic service great to chat too really polite and friendly really showed willing to help even tho they are really busy special shoutout to the manager for her service as she seemed stressed juggling many chores.

The Broken Bridge

Very big pub with a good variety of beers at an affordable price, typical Wetherspoon choice of good value food. Small outdoor beer garden seating area at the rear gets very popular when the sun is out ???. Well worth a visit if you're in town.

Masala Room

I cannot praise Massala Room enough, they are consistent from the food to the friendly service.

Whilst we do not have to travel far, we would be more than willing to travel for our favorite curry house. No other lamb has ever melted so easily, no other sauce has ever had such a smooth flavour.

This evening maps told us you shut at 10:30 but it was actually 10 so our call at 9:50 was more than justified to be turned away or ignored but not only did you answer and whip up a beautiful takeaway, your decor and restaurant atmosphere made our valentines more special. Thank you to everyone at Masala Room.

Kinsley Hotel

Great pub great cheap beer friendly local people ,good bar staff .especially one called abigal Or possibly olivier has good attitude towards customers and hard working

The Ancient Borough Arms

Spoilt 4 Choice

Hands down best sandwich shop in Pontefract, cannot rate highly enough! Sandwiches are extremely generous with the fillings and excellent value for money great quality produce and the best staff . We always use spoilt for choice and wouldn’t go anywhere else . Collection or delivery they are always top class and blow the rest out of the water . Give them a try you won’t regret it

Station Lane Fisheries

Came last night for the first time, ordered two lightly battered fish, two chips and a curry sauce. The staff were friendly, the chips were the best we've had, fluffy on the inside, still piping hot when we got home. The fish was cooked perfectly, flaky and meaty. Not too greasy either. We'll defo be back.

The Blue Bell

just great service and good food for the price. we had Ryan serve us and she was so helpful especially as we had forgotten our glasses ?. and helped us with the menu

Morrisons Cafe

Lovely Chinese Takeaway. First time trying, everything was very delicious and hot. Arrived at our house in less then 15 minutes amazed by how fast it arrived. I Recommend you to try.

Gillygate Fisheries

just bought a fish and chips and a chip butty and a burger £17.00 I sent my lad back in to get some sauce or mayo and they charged him a extra £1.30 to squirt some mayo on my chip butty. A absolute rip off.

Pizza Jim
