Queens Arms

The Queens Arms on Denby Dale Road is a much-loved, family-run community pub that blends traditional British charm with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Just minutes from Wakefield town centre, this pub has built a strong and loyal local following, thanks to its cosy interiors, friendly service, and consistently great value.

The pub is well known for its home-cooked, great-value meals — including popular pub classics, pizzas, and hearty Sunday roasts — drawing families, locals, and day-trippers throughout the week. Its broad drinks range offers something for everyone, from fresh coffees and wines to world beers and proper cask ales.

A standout USP is its dog-friendly ethos: four-legged visitors are greeted with water bowls and treats, making the pub a favourite stop for walkers and dog-owners. Outside, a large beer garden provides a relaxed space for socialising in the warmer months, ideal for families, groups and community gatherings. Free onsite parking adds extra convenience for those travelling from surrounding neighbourhoods.

The Queens Arms is also a hub for regular entertainment — from quizzes and live music to community events — helping to maintain a lively atmosphere and steady midweek trade.

With its strong reputation, versatile offering, and genuine “local pub” character, The Queens Arms stands out as one of Wakefield’s most welcoming community pubs, offering plenty of scope for an operator who loves food, people, and authentic pub hospitality.

The private accommodation consists of 4 bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen and a bathroom.
