Muffin Break

A very good coffee cum muffin break indeed in Wakefield's center. Very good variety and although the pricing point seems to be indimdating but the quality and satisfaction totally proves worthy of it. Very good ambience and dine-in experience too. A very good place for a short break if you have been tired roaming round Wakefield's city center all day round.

Finally stopped in here for an early lunch after missing out a few times because it was too busy. For £23 we got 2x bottles of coke (full size), 2x giant muffins (one Apple & Cinnamon, one choc chip), a salmon & cream cheese bagel, and a mozzarella, tomato and basil pesto panini. The lunch mains were not over-heated and had a generous amount of fillings. All the ingredients tasted good quality. The muffins were beautifully presented, but tasted great too. They had a nice slightly crisp top, with very soft and fluffy under. Again the flavours were great too. All the food was freshly prepared and delicious with good portion sizes. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming and we didn't feel rushed through the till process, and was welcomed with a smile. The only thing I would say, is they could benefit more seating/bigger property as it's always pretty busy for lunch. I'd say this is an excellent alternative to pret, Starbucks or Costa, at a competitive price with better quality, fresh food.

Had breakfast and coffee here, and we go often. It is a lovely cafe with so many lovely sweet options. Binder served me and my partner and she was so kind in helping me choose and also taking my order, she is very smiley. Will be back for breakfast again soon, thank you.

⭐ 1 Star I have just had one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in a café. I came into Muffin Break Wakefield and placed a simple order for a chocolate cake and two lattes. Over 20 minutes later, I was still waiting. During this time, what I believe to be the manager and a member of staff began arguing — not quietly, but screaming, shouting, and fighting both in the shop and in the background. The atmosphere was incredibly uncomfortable and disturbing — not just for me, but for every single customer present. It got to the point where I didn’t even have the courage to ask for a refund or leave, because I genuinely felt they might turn their anger on me. I just sat there, feeling trapped and deeply unsettled. This was completely unprofessional, unacceptable, and left me very upset. A café should be a welcoming, calm place for customers — not somewhere where staff disputes spill out in full view of everyone. Truly shocking experience.

Very lovely place to spend your afternoon, very fair prices and eveything is very presentable. The place is very well kept and was very clean when I visited. The staff was very friendly and explained the difference between the different drinks that they serve. I would recommend anyone to go take a look and have a nice cuppa of whatever you fancy. Lots of seating, family friendly and also OK if you want to spend some quality time with a book and a hot drink.
