Wakefield BID’s commitment to championing local hospitality continues with the return of Wakefield Restaurant Week — a week-long campaign designed to drive footfall, support city centre eateries, and encourage visitors to discover the diverse food and drink offering across Wakefield.
Running from Monday 11th to Sunday 18th May, the initiative features exclusive offers, themed menus, and standout events at some of the city’s best-loved restaurants and cafés.

More venues and offers are being added throughout the week, reflecting the growing appetite for local, affordable, and quality food experiences.
Supporting Our Hospitality Sector
Wakefield Restaurant Week is just one of the many ways Wakefield BID supports city centre businesses. The event helps increase midweek and weekend footfall, raises the profile of local venues, and encourages repeat visits from new and returning customers.
This year’s event has been promoted through the Ey Up Wakefield website, social media channels, printed posters, and in-venue materials – ensuring strong visibility across the city.
“Restaurant Week is about putting our hospitality sector in the spotlight. It’s a great way to get people through the door, increase spend, and remind people just how good our local food scene really is,” said Thomas Wales, Chief Executive of Wakefield BID.
