Much better since my last trip. Things have definitely improved. Just need some good music but not the club singers with backing tracks. We need real musicians. Will definitely be going back again.

Popped in for a couple having heard great things. However something must have changed. We went on a Saturday night and the place was half empty and there was ancient songs blasting. If their target audience is the 50+ then they need to considering lowering the volume, otherwise they need to consider changing the soundtrack. We stayed for one drink which was cheap however even that wasn't enough to keep us there for any longer.

Well my worst fears confirmed. For over 4 years this has been by a country mile the best pub in town. Over this time Dean and Sally worked tirelessly to create an environment which provided a fabulously unique and alternative experience to every other pub in town. Sadly they’ve moved on and over night all they had created has gone. It is now totally bereft of any semblance of the atmosphere and ambience the place had. Local pub owners, managers, landlords etc must recognise that there’s a massive appetite in the town for a pub which delivers The Tap experience. Until that time I suspect that many pub goers who came into the town just to visit this pub may not choose to drink in Pontefract at all.

New owners now. No atmosphere, won’t be going back again. New owners need to rethink and turn it back to a great place again

Nice pub for a drink, in a small place this nice bar was a good surprise. The main problem was that it has only drinks, so to eat you have to go outside. Good environment a got lucky since there was some celebration in town and a lot of People were having fun.
