Luis Bar @ Fernandes, Wakefield

Newly renovated, it looks smaller to me now but the beer is excellent and there’s a wide choice from within the Ossett group plus one or two other breweries. Plenty of exposed brick and some iron columns, protected by cushions on the sharp corners. The old pub signs have been retained but moved to a less prominent position and the European beer adverts remain.

Excellent brewery tap. Situated down a side road just off a major roundabout this brewery tap is above the brewery. 11 handpulls with 4 from Fernandes and 2 Ossett and the rest guest beers. Definitely worth a visit.

The bar in this place is right at the top of the building in a single room that is a bit like an old barn. At least you don't have to go all the way back downstairs to get to the toilets! The floor is wooden and there are some old Home brewery pub signs along with other bric-a-brac. It wasn't that busy on my Saturday afternoon visit. The bar has eleven hand pumps which had rwo unused, a cider, five Fernandes beers, Abbeydale Piracy, Revolutions Clash and Ossett Yorkshire Blonde. I had a couple of Fernandes Double Chinned IPA (£3.35) both of which were a bit warm, the first more so. Apart from that minor niggle they were fine. This is clearly one of the destination ale venues in Wakefield. It's GBG 2018 listed.
