New Union
A proper neighbourhood pub on Almsgate where locals actually gather—good beer, proper food, and the kind of place that feels like it's been there forever.

Head down to Almsgate and you'll find the New Union tucked into the fabric of central Wakefield like it belongs there. This is the sort of pub that doesn't need to shout about itself: solid real ales on tap, a menu that takes itself seriously without being pretentious, and staff who know regulars by name. The room's got character—think traditional wood and honest lighting rather than trying too hard. It's the place you'd bring mates for a proper pint, grab a decent feed after work, or settle in for the football without it feeling forced.
