Reviews for The Pontefract Castle

I'm a big fan of ales so I always enjoy finding somewhere new that serves a good variety. Pontefract Castle has 6 different ales on tap and they even do a "matching sausages and ales" night on Mondays. I've only eaten there once so far and I had a 5 bean and vegetable soup and some breaded prawns with sweet chilli sauce. The prawns were a bit overcooked and so were slightly dry and the soup was lacking in actual vegetables and beans!! I guess most traditional pubs have the same standard of food so I can't really complain.

The Marleybone drag from the High Street to Oxford Street appears to blessed with an excellent number of very worthy pubs.

The Pontefract Castle is no exception, it is a converted 3 story townhouse with a very charming basement bar and attic restaurant which is accessed by a rope and rail guided spiral staircase.

Food and private functions are also catered to at very reasonable rates.
