"If you are anywhere near Pontefract and you fancy a nice coffee and something to eat then you won't go far wrong by visiting DJs Café at Maud's Yard, (off Market Place), Pontefract, WF8 1AQ Tel. 07947 395981. I was actually on a journey to Durham and decided to break the journey at Pontefract. Having never been there before I was delighted to find a warm welcome at DJs Café and delicious cheese and ham sourdough toasties. Hannah, who runs the business, is very professional and friendly. I could see there were several regulars who were enjoying their drinks and eats. I think the opening hours are Tuesdays 9am to 12.30pm. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays 9am to 3pm. Saturday 8am to 3pm. Closed Mondays and Sundays. The toasties were the very best and kept us going for several hours. The bakewell cake I took away was absolutely delicious and so fresh that even though I didn't eat it until 32 hours later it was still very fresh. Pontefract is definitely worth a visit if you are nearby. There is a great indoor market with a good variety of wares on sale. Parking is available at Morrison's supermarket, Stuart Road, WF8 1BT and it is only a short walk to the market place and Maud's Yard where you will find DJs Café. Thank you to the bakers and Hannah. To have a nice breakfast including coffee for two at under £17.00 is very good value and so fresh Thank you."

"We went here after it being recommended by a friend and unfortunately have to say it was disappointing. Unfortunately the service was not good at all. Initially drinks spilled slightly on table. Waitress apologised but didn't wipe up. 40min wait between finishing starters and main course arriving. Had request a second drink from the bar as had waited 10 min for it between courses so presume the waitress had forgotten. When main course arrived again waitress struggling to carry 2 plates at a time tipped it towards me. I had to grab the gravy boat to avoid it spilling all over me. In doing so burned my hand. Again waitress apologised and left. Leaving us to clean up the mess and me to go to rinse my hand under the tap. Waitress was very young girl and whilst understand these things happen on occasions the spillages were not isolated to just our table. This needs addressing and training given along with accident reporting as I could have received a very nasty burn (I'm fine but it was sore). Lovely pub and nice atmosphere, but the food average at best so won't be returning."

"I called ahead to inquire about their gluten-free options and was assured they could accommodate. However, upon arriving, I discovered a very limited menu with cold food and scarce amounts of meat in the dishes. The experience did not meet my expectations and I do not plan on returning. The service was average, with the meal being a dinner service that cost between £30-40 per person. Overall, the atmosphere was lackluster, earning a rating of 1 out of 5."

"This place is a hidden gem in Castleford. If you're fed up of big brand coffee houses, pretentious independent coffee shops and greasy spoons (or if you love these but want to try something different) Bake My Day is the place to go. All their cakes look so lovingly made and decorated (their Instagram always makes me hungry), they also taste amazing too! Their coffee is beautiful, as well as having an extensive menu of other drinks. Their lunch menu is never a let down. When ever I have been their menu and cakes always caters for those who are meat eaters, veggie, vegan and gluten free. The staff are friendly and amazing at what they do."

"A group of 8 friends recently dined at The Spread for their first Fish and Fizz evening. Despite some difficulties with the online booking system only accepting up to 6 guests, we were able to confirm our reservation for 8 after a visit to the restaurant. The table for 8 was set up and ready for us upon arrival. Drinks were easy to order from the bar or our friendly female server. We all decided on the Fish and Chips option, with the choice to swap out the Fizz for a bottle of wine. Both the Fizz and Wine were enjoyable. The fish was cooked to perfection, with crispy batter and a generous portion size. The chips were good, although some of us felt they could have been a bit crispier and less brown. The service throughout our visit was exceptional, with smiling and prompt staff at both the table and the bar. Overall, it was a great first visit and we look forward to returning in the future."
