“Fantastic fish and chips, portion sizes are brilliant for the price!”

“Great place to shop the cafe upstairs has some really good food. Well worth a visit. Dog friendly most important.”

“I've never eaten here before. I had my favourite Thai dishes, chicken satay and chicken Massaman. Both were absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be back.”

“Always been a fan of the Turkish/Greek sort of grills and what a little gem this place is in the middle of, out of all places, Pontefract (no offense to anyone from Pontefract). It's a pretty cosy establishment, about 26 covers max, but any place of that size and a focused menu set, typically means they can focus on the quality of the dishes, and boy, tonight's meal was a joy. For anyone going for the first time, I'd definitely recommend the mixed grill as it has a full range of lamb kebab, lamb chop, adana (which btw was awesome, right lamb mince consistency with the delicate balance of herbs and spices), chicken kebab and chicken wing. Rice was flavourful and the salad refreshing with the appropriate amount of dressing. Other half has the chicken Marmanis, which was indeed tasty, white wine sauce with the mushrooms just right without being too salty or sharp. Only a slight blip was a tough tendon in her piece of chicken - something that can be easily corrected I'm sure. Baklava for dessert is home made rather than shop bought so that's a massive positive for me. All washed down with a Turkish apple tea to cleanse the pallette to end a surprising but delightful evening meal. Service was excellent and attentive, the team there are super friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back and is an establishment we will bring friends and family to. A must visit. 5*. If the team are reading this? teşekkür ederim”

“Visited again for the second time. Just as the first absolutely wonderful. Food, staff and atmosphere amazing. Can't speak too highly of it. Will be back again in the new year.”

“A real mother's day treat breakfast at Blakes. First ever visit. Daughter booked for us she's been to the garden centre before but has never managed to get in here. There's no booking normally so you just have to stand and wait for a table. In the past she's been told an average of 45mins wait which she hasn't done so this was a first for us both. Lovely food excellent service I can see why its so popular.”

“Beautiful atmosphere, amazing food lovely staff and a really great owner definitely will be returning here again thank you to the owner who looked after us”

“Order from here when we fancy Indian and it never fails. Pashawari naan is amazing, and we always get chicken jalfrazi and chicken achari. The achari is my one of my favourite meals to eat ever! It’s so tasty and I wish I didn’t get full so I could eat more of it!”

“Great real pub. great proper beer.great company. Brilliant bar staff. Don't really get Humprey Smith's ban on mobile devices.”

“Very cosy atmospheric pub. Stayed as a B&B customer. Lovely room ,great breakfast .”

“The service upon arrival was so warm and friendly and the food was incredible. We ordered prawn toast (perfectly crispy and a good prawn to toast ratio), spring rolls (both the veg + meat were amazing, plenty of filling, well seasoned), salt + pepper squid (very flavourful and lots of it!), the orange duck (so succulent, my mouth is watering just thinking about it), tofu satay (tasted incredible and a great balance of flavours), boiled rice (very fluffy), prawn crackers (not oily at all). I live in Doncaster and always drive half an hour to pick up Lee's Garden because it's the best Chinese I've ever had. I couldn't recommend this place any more.”

“Best lasagne I've ever eaten in the UK! Proper home made food. Delicious. Friendly staff. Highly recommend!”

“First time i have used this place since covid started. What a pleasant surprise. No need to go to town for a decent restaurant we have got one right here on the doorstep. The food was excellent and the staff were very attentive.”

“Great little pub, was the 1st time we had been in and will definitely go back.”

“I had lunch with some friends on Monday.A table was booked for the seven of us by my friend . We all loved our meals and drinks. Quick and efficient service. The staff were so helpful and friendly . We will definitely be returning.”

“My favourite Chinese, never had a bad meal yet. Always red hot when I get it home or delivered.”

“We would like to thank everyone for making our wedding meal what we can only describe as perfect. The food was wonderful, we were very well looked after, the table layout was exactly as we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble and we would highly recommend The Bluebell to anybody, we have had a few meals here prior to the wedding and every time the food, staff, atmosphere was fantastic. Thank you again for everything xx”

“Had a great laugh. Although it was really busy the staff were quick. Got a dance floor ar the back and had some decent mix of music”

“Food was ordered on a Friday night at 9.30 after a football match so we we all starving, told it would be an hour which is reasonable I guess but when food still nowhere at 1hour 10 I rung the shop because it was getting late and my kids had not eaten. The food turned up 5 minutes later lovely and fresh. Pizzas, beautiful, my youngest son enjoyed his nuggets which says a lot from him because he's very fussy. We even had some pizzas on for breakfast this morning. Thanks Chattas, keep up the good work and you will have got yourselves a couple of regulars x”

“Firstly I am somewhat of an Indian take away professional having eaten then for 36yrs. I ordered a Chicken Madras, Pilau Rice and Chapatti. Yes I ordered early given some negative reviews stated delivery can take a while but trust me... Perfection is worth waiting for. Probably the best Chicken Madras I have ever tasted. Spicy yet flavoursome. Gorgeous meal and.... Oh yes, delivered on time. Top quality Friendly delivery driver Reasonable prices On time delivery The best in the area by a mile. Well done Raj Mahal, you have a new customer for life. Cheers Jonathan”
