We always like going here. The food is good, service is quick and it’s not usually too loud, though we haven’t gone when they have music.
We would love to see half portions of the entrees. Their portions are very generous which is a good problem to have! But knowing we can’t eat even half often stops us from of ordering them.
Some of the staff could use more training as the drinks sometimes taste way off or wait staff can’t answer simple drink questions.
I do think some sort of dress code for staff would be beneficial too as staff often looks frumpy or just rolled out of bed and the restaurant itself seems more upscale.
Overall, we enjoy it and have recommended it to friends!

Overall Rating: 3.9/10
This restaurant’s visually appealing tavern-style atmosphere contrasts starkly with the subpar service and food quality experienced during the visit.
Atmosphere: 6.1/10
The setting is genuinely tavern-like, complete with a full, legitimate-looking tent and bar area that adds character to the space.
Service: 3.9/10
Service delays were significant, with over five minutes waiting for water and similar delays for food, impacting the overall dining experience. The lack of attentiveness continued throughout the meal, affecting the ability to enjoy the dishes as intended, such as not having ketchup available for fries. The charge is done by the sever at the table without giving a print out which may not show transparency.
Food:
Cowboy Skillet: 4.9/10
While specific details of the seasoning are forgotten, the presentation on a skillet initially suggested a promising dish. However, it was served cold, significantly detracting from what could have been a flavorful experience.
Kids Cheese Burger Meal: 3.3/10
The presentation of the kids’ burger was lackluster, with a disproportion between the bun and the meat. A more balanced proportion could potentially improve both the appearance and the eating experience.
Cheese Pizza: 3.4/10
The pizza suffered from an underwhelming undercarriage and crust, reminiscent of lower-quality frozen pizza, which marred the overall taste and left a bad aftertaste.
Value: 4.1/10
Priced at $47 for two entrees and a kids’ meal without drinks, the value perceived was low. Improvements in service speed, food warmth, and culinary quality, especially the pizza, could justify the cost better.

Went for lunch with my wife. She had the club sandwich on rye bread with chips. She loved the sandwich, it was huge, the chips seemed a little old. My fish was ok but very crispy. Our server John was excellent made sure we had all we needed. Overall it’s hit or miss here.

We sat at the bar with Deanna yesterday and had the most lovely time! She was warm and inviting and went out of her way to make sure we knew about all the NA options. 20/10 service from her and the food was amazing, as usual.

First time back after a more than a few meh service experiences 2-3 years ago and WOW, the service is back at Wakefield Tavern! Food and environment has always been top notch and brunch was fantastic but our server and service was once again first class. Planning another brunch soon.
For transparency, I did get changed a weird “operations fee” for 3%. Not sure what that’s all about but much better than the $5 extra Diablo sause fee that Shuckers charged me a few years ago so I’m not complaining.

If you take a long look at my figure you can tell I love hanging out in tavern style restaurants. Practically all over the east coast. Wakefield has to be my favorite so far. Staff, courteous, kind and very friendly. The food, forget about it, like being in one of those places I grew up in South Jersey.. get the chicken speedie.

Stopped in here for dinner a couple weekends ago and it was a fantastic experience. My waitress was super attentive, but gave me time to finish eating without trying to rush me out to get someone else in the seat. Got the house queso and salsa for an app, they were pretty damn good. I couldn’t tell if the chips were made in house or not, but they were good regardless! I got the Southwestern Quesadilla for my meal and that was also fantastic! It had a ton of flavor and was super filling. I will absolutely be coming back here!
House queso & Salsa – 7.8/10
Southwestern Quesadilla – 8.5/10

Ask for Jessie. She is bubbly and knowledgeable about the menu. Always checked back with us. We love her personality! Food is amazing. We tried the Totchos appetizer and split the Fish & Chips. Their spring cocktail menu looks delicious. I had the Pomegranate Spritz. Check them out. Get there before 5:30 on a Saturday to beat the rush. It got busy real fast! We will definitely be back to try other entrees and the risotto.

This place is like a hidden gem if you’re looking for gluten-free food. A surprising amount of their menu is either already gluten-free or can be made gluten-free. The food is always delicious and the services always great! I love the nights when they have live music.

The food was excellent and our server was wonderful. The problem occurred when we were asked to be done in one hour because they had a reservation for the table. We were told this by the hostess. One hour and eight minutes later the manager comes to our table to tell we were suppose to be gone and we were told this beforehand. We had been done for about fifteen minutes. Nobody had brought us a check. He should have asked the server instead of acting like the jerk he apparently is. Loved the food but I will never go back.
