About this venue

Built in 1877 and Grade II listed, the Wakefield & Barnsley Union Bank, now repurposed as a business venue, occupies a prominent location in Wakefield town center, serving its residents. This expansive venue features two flawlessly designed bars, along with a centrally located large multi-screen displaying daily football and sports fixtures. Throughout the establishment, numerous televisions are strategically placed, each equipped with up-to-date music and sports channels, providing patrons with intimate viewing areas amidst a lively atmosphere.

The business operates with two distinct tempos throughout the day. It serves as a robust community pub during daytime hours and transitions into the heart and soul of Wakefield in the evening. With its late license, the venue offers late-night entertainment into the early hours, further solidifying its role in the local nightlife scene

This business is prominently situated within the city center, thriving during late-night hours surrounded by shops and other establishments that offer both daytime drinking and late-night entertainment. Housed in an iconic building, the ground floor features a variety of seating options including high-rise chairs, low-level seating, booths, and private areas, all equipped with televisions. The bar itself spans a considerable length, offering a wide selection of drinks and facilitating promotions on beverages.

A DJ booth positioned on the ground floor serves as a focal point for evening entertainment, complemented by state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems throughout the entire establishment.

On the first floor, several private booths each feature their own power points and televisions, catering to daytime patrons and workers seeking a conducive environment. This level also provides a vantage point overlooking the mezzanine, which in turn overlooks the bustling ground floor. Additionally, this floor houses toilets and a distinctive, iconic bar that enhances the venue's appeal and serves as a valuable asset during evening operations.
