I dont rate Kashmiri Aroma but I used to go to Akbars a lot but as people have said it has gone down hill. Especially in portion size

You're coming to the wrong city for that.

Thanks for the replies.

Just after somewhere that will fill me before the match

There seems to be a few to choose from.

Lets hope for some decent weather and a good game.

Thanks again

Can we have a review of the one you choose after the game WW?

You won't go wrong with any of these.

Kings Head on Heath Common - top food and only 5 mins away from the ground.

80-0 to Trinity

Bringing balance back to the universe

Somewhere in a parallel universe perhaps.

pie and peas at the cats bar and it should be £2 a pint

Thatched House in Stanley on A642 which is on way to Wakefield from J30 M62

Kings arms on Heath common, ten minutes walk to the ground, Google it, good food and nice beers.

How long in a taxi?

Seems like only me and you have been there - best pub within short distance of the ground by a mile. IMO of course, being a real ale fan

I go to the Kings arms on a regular basis and should be atttending after the WTW Vs Tigers game. The food isn't as good since the new manager has taken over but is still a decent bar meal but nothing spectacular. Where the Kings excels is in its real ale and old style atmosphere. On a sunny day, sat outside at the front entrance there is nothing quite like it locally.

The Kings Arms sits neatly into my top 5 real ale pubs in the area.

In no order - Junction (Castleford), Robin Hood (Pontefract), Kings Arms (Heath), Fernandes Taps (Wakefield), Gaping Goose (Garforth).

Last time (and only time) I went in the Gaping Goose not so long since it only had 2 ales on, one of which was Tetley's Cask - so didn't count - I guess its changed a bit.

Never been in the Robin Hood but the rest I'll agree. I'm more a Harry's Bar / Printworks person, quite a few decent real ale bars opening up in that little area now, all within walking distance.
