this place is the ronseal of the pub world, it does exactly what it says on the tin. it’s a shed and it’s red. it offers a very old world feel. i found out about the shed a few years ago as friends of mine were always playing there. it has established itself as one of the best local music venues having a very wide spectrum of musical tastes. in my experience the beer has been generally good althought there have been instances of it being below par. it could do with a lick of paint and the toilets refurbing though but that just adds to it’s charm.

Legendary club in Wakefield, very friendly staff and customers. 4 different hand pumps, all on at the same time usually. Great selection of well priced Belgian beers too, including the Kwak and matching glasses. A great place.

Home of the Wakefield Labour Club this really is a red shed(which is appropriate and reassuring as it suggests a level of honesty). I have visited a couple of times in order to partake in poetry events but there are also musical performances and other great events. This isn’t a massive place(being as it is, a shed) so it is very cosy and when I visited I felt immediately at home and once I’d started tasting the great range of(reasonably priced) CAMRA ales and bottled beers I moved from home to heaven(albeit rather unsteadily). The bar is open to members and their guests but also to people attending events here. Take a look at the website and get yourself over there, you will not be sorry.

The Red Shed is basically a portacabin set on the edge of Wakefield Town Centre(near J.R. Morton’s opticians and the area where Woolworths used to be). From the outside, it looks fairly non descript — in fact, you could easily pass by without noticing it — but inside, it always seems to be bustling with friendly regulars. Many people are attracted here for the live music which is on most nights — loads of different types of bands and artists play, many from the local area. They also have open mic nights which are well worth a visit. It may be small, but it’s certainly very popular and definitely worth a visit.
