I find it a bit difficult to review the Waggon because just about all the relevant possible superlatives have already been used. However, this place is especially deserving of a further attempt. Our last visit, my wife and myself chose the roast dinners, she went...for the turkey and I picked the turkey and pork. Both plates had generous portions of the respective meats and all of them were of excellent quality and cooked to perfection. Along with the meat came seasonal vegetables, a Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes and stuffing all accompanied with lashings of gorgeous gravy (See what I did there). Obviously, the main attraction for most people is the food but there's more to it at the Waggon here, you really do feel the warm, friendly atmosphere immediately you're met by any of these four lovely people :- Sam, Tony, Paul and Barry. It also must be said that the rest of the staff are no different which makes visiting here such a pleasurable experience. Other features are their specials nights and one of particular note is fish and chips night. Some time ago, I said to myself, I won't have fish and chips except from a reputable fish and chip shop that was turned on its head when I sampled the ones at the Wggon. Absolutely superb.
We now live in Wakefield but that hasn't prevented us from returning, whenever we can, to this very special place.More
