Sensational ale hole - difficult to fault? Try impossible to fault. Beers listed on a chalk board featuring at least 6 real ales. A nice mix between modern and old, the interior is very pleasing and there is a small seating area besides the pub. A large selection of fruit beers and various other bottles including WKD Cider (first time i've seen it, thank god!) and Crabbies Alcoholic Ginger beer which was a lovely drop. With regards to the levels of patronage, I had no problems getting a seat at 5.30pm on a weekday and the pub was comfortably busy. I will be seeking out this pub the next time I happen to go anywhere near Wakefield Westgate, and will add it to the list of fantastic pubs in Wakefield including Boons, Red Shed and Fernandes.

A small and cosy pub a little off the beaten track, serving up a good selection of ales (from Ossett and elsewhere), continental bottled beers and premium lagers.

The interior is all wooden beams and exposed brickwork with some partitioned drinking areas. As noted in a previous review, the size of the place is a double-edged sword - lovely when quiet, awkward and difficult to relax when busy. Live music nights are advertised inside (how do they fit them in?). There was a nice sun deck outside.

Well-worth a visit in quieter periods (though given it doesn't open until 5 most weekdays that could prove more difficult to achieve than usual). Good pub.

Great pub. Brilliant atmosphere and fine ales. Difficult to fault for a town centre pub.

An absolute gem of a place. I had heard of the mythical Harry's Bar on Westgate shortly after I moved to Wakefield, but hadn't seen it. Then a couple of weeks ago I wandered up a tiny alleyway opposite the road running up to Wesgate Station and there it was, about 50m down, a unicorn of a pub: difficult to find and magical. A great selection of real ales in a tiny pub, wonderful cosy atmosphere. They do music at some time during the week, though I have no idea how they can fit a whole band in, but I intend to find out soon!

Absolutely heaving on the Saturday night I visited. Despite the cold weather I braved one of the tables outside. Several real ales on offer.
