Harrys Bar

This fabulous pub is well worth shouting to the rafters about. Again, this review comes from the depths of nostalgia and fond memories from a few years ago when I lived in Wakey. It’s a classic real ale pub with a firm live music policy, and although the seating is extremely modest, that doesn’t stop folk from packing in here on a Wednesday or Friday night to sink a few pints and soak in the sounds.
The staff have always been fantastic and the drinks were alway reasonably cheap. They’ve a small array of outside seating and being located so close to the train station it’s an ideal spot for those hoping to indulge in a few before catching the last train back to Leeds, as I always was, or those looking for a decent pint after stepping off the train.
Although the pub isn’t managed by the same folk as when I used to frequent here, it seems like it’s still a prime spot for those after a more low-​key and friendly atmosphere. There’s not much else to it, except great pints and fabulous music. I’m surely biased as I’ve always had such a great time here, but I doubt it can have changed that much over the years. Watch out for Peculiar Blue, Dr Blue and The Welsh T Band amongst other solid local favourites!

Fantastic little pub, and I do mean little! Tucked away just across from Westgate train station it’s easy to miss but well worth a visit if you do find it. They have a good selection of ales on, I had the strongest one they had on tap the other week and if I recall it was only about £3, the rest were cheaper than that so pretty decent prices. They only have room for around 7 tables inside and they have a few benches outside for when the weather’s nice.
