The Black Bull at Midgley

The Black Bull at Midgley is a vintage-style pub and restaurant in the village of Midgley, just outside Wakefield. The interior has a warm, characterful feel with leather sofas, floral wallpaper, funky fabrics and polished wood, plus open fires to settle in beside. There's seating for 120 inside and a 90-seat terrace outside, along with a private dining area and a locals' bar.

The food is home cooked and the menu is broad, covering hearty breakfasts, Sunday lunches, rotisserie chicken, stone-baked pizzas, pies, burgers, tapas and more. The Sunday beef carvery in particular gets a lot of love from regulars, and the Yorkshire pudding wrap sharer is well worth ordering if you spot it on the menu. There's a dedicated kids' menu too, and the team are known for being welcoming and accommodating with family groups of all sizes.

On the drinks side, you'll find cask ales from local brewers, a solid wine list, classic cocktails and handcrafted coffees. The pub is open from noon every day, with earlier starts at weekends from 10am. Booking a table is recommended, especially on Sundays.

The venue has a wheelchair-accessible entrance, toilets, parking and seating, so it's straightforward to visit with pushchairs or anyone with mobility needs. It sits at 21 Bar Lane, Midgley, WF4 4JJ, and you can reach them on 01924 830951 or book online through their website.
