Reviews of Mallard
W. S.
The food was amazing stake was done perfect. The burger was so tasty and filling the chicken wings were just spot on. Service was great very polite would recommend to anyone
C. B. P. 1.
9/11/21 Great food and service today, I would say today is the best food I’ve ever had in mallard and all staff are great best line up of staff what mallard as yet as todays staff know what there doing without just walking around like headless chickens. David should be proud of the staff he’s had today, the girls behind the bar work amazing definitely Chloe, I’ve seen staff interact with the deaf community even though the staff don’t know any sign language. Great deals on Tuesday Big Plate Specials £7 #bargain #amazingstaff
D. C.
Very helpful and attentive staff. Sunday dinner (top side of beef) was very good. Fair priced as would expect from a greenking chain pub
S. G.
Good food, good ambiance and really good service. This pub is just outside Doncaster railway station inside a mall. Very convenient if you want to grab a meal before heading to station. They have everyday special offers. We went for lunch before catching our train back to London. Food was really good and service was quick. Taking all required precautions for COVID-19.

What a great experience at the Mallard. It began by being warmly greeted at the door and being told to help ourselves to any table that was comfortable for us. The young lady behind the bar (Eloise) was so pleasant and welcoming, she was also so helpful and had a great knowledge on what was available. We didn’t have to wait long for our meals and the food was delicious. We will definitely be back again soon.
M. R.
We'd come to Doncaster using northern rail £1 tickets for a few beers. We called in the Mallard as our last port of call before catching the train home. The John Smith's was £3 40 considerably dearer than the £2 we'd paid elsewhere however it was a lovely pint and the young man who served us had a great sense of humour. The place was bright and airy and overall a most pleasant experience. It's great advantage was its situated near the station which was a big plus for us
J. R.
Wow what a great experience at the Mallard today. It began when I was at the bar ordering our meals. The young lady (Eloise) was so pleasant and welcoming, she was also so helpful. We didn’t have to wait long for our meals and the food was delicious. We will definitely be going back again.
T. S.
Great quick service, friendly staff and tasty food.
S.
Amazing food and amazing service! Came for a meal with my friend, the southern fried chicken burgers were so nice! Was also served by Ian who was so friendly and lovely to chat with!☺️
D. S.
Good small English breakfast for only 3.49. I saw the sign outside for English breakfast for 5.49 so I decided to give it a try. On the table menus it said 6.49. I asked at the bar and they said 5.49. I asked if they did a smaller version. She said yes and I paid 3.49. It was very good and also very filling. there's free cloud wifi
R. B.
Excellent food and service
M. B.
This place has some amazing meals with delicious flavours, I had their Wednesday special "Jalcrazy" and it was certainly that, it blew my head off! The flavours themselves were delicious making it impossible to stop eating, although your tongue would be burning by the 10th bite, they have meals to enjoy for everyone with a massive varied menu.
B. M.
Been here quite a few times and every time I love it!! The food is amazing and the service is top quality. I get served frequently by Ebony who always has a smile on her face and makes every moment enjoyable!
Great service, great food. 100% would recommend
S.
Came in on a thursday evening, cold outside and yet soo comfortably warm inside. Heat and atmosphere. The staff were lovely and welcoming. I always feel at ease in this place.
Special mention for Dan; our server for his exceptional service and for being so lovely and interactive i felt he was more a friend than a worker. Absolutely love the lad. Would happily keep coming back just be served by him. Great smile. Happy to help and caring for his customers. Couldnt ask for a better server. Give the man a raise.
100% Boyo.
Z tier Lad.
Critics call him a god among men
I cant disagree

26/05/22 Excellent food and service. The bar staff went above and beyond to make sure we got our meal before the deadline passed when many would have just said the kitchen was closed. I look forward to going there again.
M. J.
I like it. Good and quick service. Nice staff. I liked that they have daily offers. Just steak was overlooked. I will be back. Thanks
M. B.
We all had a lovely meal and the staff were lovely, we were served by Ian and Mark, 👍
D. S.
Conveniently located above Doncaster Interchange in Frenchgate, but that doesn't forgive the fact that as a result it is outrageously overpriced for drinks. Even though the service and drinks were good, I would only ever use here as a meeting point before a night out if I visited again
K. L.
Nice place. Friendly staff. Lovely food would come here again
M. H.
Great food, great service from Ian and Hannah. It's a while since I've been to the Mallard, but it'll definitely not be long until the next time!
p. b.
I recently visited the mallard pub for a suprice birthday dinner and I can recommend this lovely pub.great food.great atmosphere and very helpful staff definitely will be going again.
R. A.
We came in here for a last-minute meal and were not disappointed. We came on curry night and really enjoyed them. Great tasting curries with good portion sizes. The jalfrezi is VERY spicy which suited myself wonderfully.
Mixed with pleasant surroundings a nice meal out.
K. S.
Amazing experience, lovely lady behind the bar called Eloise, made us feel very welcome, will definitely come again
B. S.
Clean facilities, nice food, brilliant staff, only knock backs are the fact that in our cutlery tin, we had a Ford with food still on it, and the chicken was crispy on the edges and you really had to chew it. Apart from that I would highly recommend coming here.
L. N.
Ian is a Very friendly person, with a brilliant all round personality. He’s gets five stars for a great service!!!
O. S.
Very nice meal and staff, good prices.
F. H.
Edible food at reasonable prices. The staff are pretty friendly.
C. W.
Went for a family meal a few weeks ago... food quality isn't really that good but what do you expect from one of the Hungry Horse stable of pubs. Atmosphere was OK, decent range of beers and clean pub.
M. H.
Great food and very friendly, attentive staff. Was served by Ian and jules who were both absolute delights. My steak was cooked perfectly by Marius along with the rest of the food. Will definitely be back! Thank you guys for a lovely night
J. L.
The food was amazing. The staff were very friendly. Fist time visiting will be going back. Good value for the price
d. s.
I came in to bring my wife for a meal on our 5 year anniversary before we went away and it was very busy and spoke to a young gentleman called Jules and he was impeccable at his customer service and professionalism and the experience was the most experienced I have ever seen, we eat out all the time but that service was unbelievable. Give him a payrise... he deserves it!
J. T.
Great staff and atmosphere, food was excellent, and thanks to Ian for his hospitality....top bloke 😀
D. S.

Thank you for a lovely meal and a great experience
Will definitely be coming back very soon ♥️
K. C. S.
Lovely food and quick customer service- enjoyed eating with my family. Will eat again soon :)
m. c.
Sat down instantly, orded on the app with three friends and within about 3minutes we had drinks brought to the table. Only a five or ten minute wait for food! Really nice staff and really clean.
Need to have more vegan friendly food for the friends I think (although there is a legit green burger which apparently tasted delicious) but the meat platters are lovely
Will be going again
K. 5.
Absolutely amazing staff , all working hard, constantly cleaning and always busy! Great food, never ever had a problem in the mallard, can not fault the place! Will 100% be back soon, Thank you for a great evening!

Staff were very helpful and understanding for my dietary requirements. The food was amazing. I ate most of the mushroom and ale pie and would definitely have it again.
Looking forward to returning soon.
Have a good Christmas everyone.
J. S.
Delicious food and great wine. Visited as a family of 12 (mixture of kids and adults) everyone enjoyed themselves and we will definitely be returning.
J. S.
Nice and clean place, good and quick service and nice food and drink available. Really calm and relaxing atmosphere. Would recommend as a family pub.
T.
Fantastic staff, great food and a decent place to eat but the air con could do with turning up, or down, whichever way you look at it, it was a little too warm in there...
They used to do steak on a pie, which was a steak pie with another steak on top but sadly they stopped doing that but the roast beef Yorkshire pudding burrito is a close second...
Worth a trip, not extortionate and good food...
T.
Loved the food great staff decently priced good atmosphere
H. J.
Visit here quite regularly and it’s always amazing, the atmosphere is great and the service is amazing!
Staff are very welcoming and friendly and are constantly cleaning and making the place tidy.
Food is amazing and comes out quick!
As always I will be visiting the mallard again because it never disappoints
L. F.
Love the food and really nice staff always willing to help
G. A. S.

Great food , a nice selection of drinks and a great atmosphere . The staff are really attentive and a special mention to Ian and Chloe who provided exceptional service when I visited this week.
J. D.
Came here with some good friends as we came up to visit them. Food was nice and staff were nice. Only thing that puts off the 5* is that there was food and a dirty fork on the floor next to our table which we noticed as we were leaving. I hope whoever cleans the tables checks the floor in the future.
A. 1.
Nice place and good food , fish and chips was lovely.
J.
I reviewed it before, and honestly il probably review it again. Everytime I come here the food it always lovely. Good value for what you get, and it's gorgeous. Staff are so friendly and quick.
D. C. E.
Excellent value. Easy to access location. Spacious seating. Staff pleasant and efficient. App and table service work perfectly.
I had a chicken kebab which came with lots of coriander and red chiles and tsatziki. I thought this was an odd combo but it was absolutely delicious and was only £9! with chips. The kids said their burgers were delicious and everyone else in our party rated their food highly.
H. G.
Cheap wine day Wed easy access to bus and train station
G. L.
Nice comfortable pub good service and right next to the train station
D. K.

M. C.
Nice stop of if your shopping in the Frenchgate or waiting for a train. Good prices.

D. F.

R. A.
Best place for a beer and a meal if you're waiting on a train
B. S.
Nice friendly staff good food and service thanks
D.
No fault with the food at all, very quick with the service. Just the waitress who was very snobby when I accidentally ordered the incorrect coke as I ordered a dash instead of a pint. Also she was a bit rude when clearing our table away as we was trying to help her by stacking our plates and my son was about to pass the plates to her and she was rude to him. Not sure if she needs some customer service training or retraining. I am happy to say that all the male waiters were fantastic.
S. F.
Nice and Friendly Staff. Ian Was Brilliant. He has only been there 3 days. He was on the ball. Checking that our food was ok. Reasonably priced drinks. Thank You.
I. H.

Food was lovely, really well presented. Quick service, couldn’t ask for better :)
J. R.
Not as nice as it used to be. Meals no longer come with chips only salad (can purchase chips separately). I ordered hunters chickens, there were barely any bbq sauce and cheese. Although the meal was enjoyable and the dressing on the salad was very nice.
S. G.

Would of been a five but front of house staff not organised and flapping.
Our meals came nice and hot but I needed a drink. The young girl said that I'd have to queue to get drink while food went cold!.
Lots of other tables wanting curries and they didn't have them on curry night.
Food was great, well done kitchen👍

A. R.
Thanks Thom for always being accommodating and making the effort for my needs whether it be work or leisure. Excellent service and great establishment. Me and my Mum love it here and often strike up a conversation with Thom, great lad! Cheers bud
H. B.
The place is perfect, the food is amazing the dish I had was super tasty, there's a sign what says 'Please feel free to find a table' I love that, I know to sit down straight away, they do Coke Cherry too, I love it! The staff are brilliant, very attentive! And they do free sides and desserts on a Thursday, which is great definitely worth paying all that money!
T. S.
Lovely pub, food and great cocktails

J. K.
I was in Mallard on Saturday night and I want to say that all my expectations were met. Jules made sure of that. Thank you
n. h.
I had a fantastic birthday meal today with my family. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was done to perfection and the chocolate fudge cake was to die for. I cannot thank the staff enough for such a pleasant day.
N. E.
We ended up eating here after both our first and second choices for a meal didn't work out but we were pleasantly surprised. Burgers are buy one get one free on Fridays, we ordered two route 66 burgers which were huge and delicious. The kids meals were also good quality and came with a massive ice cream sundae. Altogether meals for two adults and two children with drinks came to £33 which was great value for the food that we got.
j. h.
Myself and my friends have started coming here on a regular weekly basis. Lots of choices on the menu, food is always well presented and tastes delicious but the best thing about this place is the staff. Always a werm welcome, very friendly and proficient. I would highly recommend the mallard to families, friends, couples and singles.
D. M.
Okay place. Had a bit of a bad experience. Me and my partner went for a meal. Was half way through eating our starters when one of the waitresses came and asked if we were ready for our mains. Could see quite clear we wasn't.
A. V.
Very good and helpful service. Nice interior. Great choice of meals with good offers. Reasonable prices. Unfortunately quality of meals (ordered chicken pie and fish & chips) is average. Rather fast food quality meals. Gent's toilet was very dirty.
C. G.
Had a fab night for my sons 21st food was good to
M. C.
Love the pub and restaurant was in with my son this morning and his words not mine the food is to die for every time we come in the food is spot on and the staff are always nice and polite always love eating in this restaurant good job guys keep it up xxxx
N. M.
Cheap food and tasty , 4 very clean plates, customer service is brill, very quick and friendly
P. J.
Had a meal on Friday night the food was so nice and the staff were very professional and so nice really enjoyed our visit
J. S.
Almost identical to a Wetherspoons. So reasonable prices and standard fare. Right next to Doncaster Railway Station as the name of the famous steam engine suggests. Friendly staff and quick service. Good value for money if you're not expecting anything too fancy. I'll use this place again next time I'm passing through
J. B.
Fantastic food staff can,t Fort it
J. W. (.
nice location in the shopping centre. only had a few pre drinks before going to another restaurant. staff were friendly and a good atmosphere.
J. M.
Staff very friendly and helpful. Service was good, food arrived in good time. Would definitely come back. Well done to the staff on duty on Friday 11th June.
d. k.
Good happy service in a clean environment
J. M.
Extremely busy when we attended, but in fairness this was Friday lunchtime just prior to a bank holiday weekend. A very well oiled machine, with a pager style system in place to be notified when a table was available. A wait was therefore involved, but we were free to get drinks from the bar in the meantime. Good quality, well priced food and very attentive, friendly staff. For a Wetherspoons style experience, this alternative comes recommended.
J. H.
I like this place. Good service, helpful staff, reasonably priced and quality food. Highly recommend.
R. M.
Great food, really busy at the dinner time but food came quickly
R. C.
Nice staff, although slow to tidy up plates. Great choice of beers although where this place really shines is the spirits, alot of effort pairing correct fruit with gins for example
E. w.
came in for food today and it was amazing staff were so polite will definitely be coming back
p. R.
We had a great time at the Mallard. The food was delicious and the staff can't do enough for you. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending a visit, You will enjoy the experience
P. O.
We have just had an excellent well presented meal here. The service was first class and the food was hot when it arrived at the table.
I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys first class cuisine at affordable prices.
One for ex and serving forces they accept your discount card if you have one.
D. V.
Great food great staff
C. C.
Great Service and staff (Ian behind the bar) nice pint of Stella.
T. H.
The gammon wasnt very good to be honest, the pineapple burnt on one side and tasted like it was genuinely burnt to much. The chips was amazing! Egg was over done, staff was good and friendly.
C. F.
This place is a pretty cozy pub that I usually visit for a drink, however I have had food from here and it was quite nice. You get your usual pub food here but it seems the place doubles up as a restaurant. As usual in pubs, you order from the bar, collect your drinks there and then and then go to your table and wait to be served your food. Not five stars only because this place is typically very busy and can often have a few loud people while the football game is shown on the TVs.
M. H.
was great but really hit and miss what service we get one time we ordered a 2 curry's waited 40 min turned out they thought they already served us but didn't so we had to ask for a refund, yesterday we went was race day and the lady at the bar asked us to stand at the other side where it was extremely loud couldn't hear what she was saying due to the roudines of the bar side. but generally been good just recently been going down hill could be a one off :-(
K. B.
1st visit here and I hope it won't be the last, fast service, lovely tasty food friendly helpful staff and sensible prices, what more could you want
L. C.
Great place for the family to eat out, fast service and great hospitality by Vicky. Would definitely recommend dining/drinking here.
s. w.
The staff were so helpful as we only had 1 meal between us. We're golden oldies, so they were very kind it was just right for us. Thank you all .
M. D.
My husband and I are regular customers and always enjoy a warm welcome from the staff team. The food is presented to a high standard and is excellent value for money. We have been to the Mallard at different times of the day and have enjoyed formal occasions and more casual "drop in visits and the high standard of service remains consistent.
m. s.
Very good food well worth the money will deffo be coming back soon
B. R.
We come to eat at the mallard quite often and normally I couldn't fault them with great customer service and amazing food. I'm here today and my partner got a pie with crust that was so hard I had to really press down using my body weight to cut through it. The sunny stacker burger had 2 rediculously dry burgers topped with the worst fried egg I have ever seen. I had the hellraiser burger which had a bun that almost disintrigated when I picked it up. A place this popular should never be handing out food as bad as the food we were served today. I am quite frankly discussed with the quality they thought was good enough to serve.
S. A.
Excellent in protecting customers due to covid felt very safe..food wasn't the best but then i guess you get what u pay for! Staff really friendly and helpfull
w. b.
I came to The Mallard after finishing work, was greeted by David at the door and shown to a table. I make regular visits and have never been disappointed, friendly staff and speedy service, would recommend to anyone to make a visit here.
M. B.
Nice please, friendly staff and food good but gets busy
J. B.
Excellent hosting. Friendly and welcoming. Excellent food at a reasonable price. I highly recommend this bar as a great place to eat when visiting Doncaster.
T.
3Rd time eating here in as many months.
Food's great, drinks are as expected, nice variety of both. Staff are mostly polite and helpful.
Standards are slipping though
Dirty cutlery bucket, dirty cutlery and on request of the alergy book, on this occasion, I was asked to choose what I wanted from the menu then check at the bar whether it was suitable for me to eat rather than me taking it to the table as I have done in the past.
K. O.
Service was excellent but food wasn't very good at all. Burger was disgusting.
Ĵ. Ĵ.
The staff are friendly, helpful and accommodating. Lovely decor, soft lighting and choice of window seating for those who prefer natural light.
Food is nice, the servings are very generous and choice is good. Food intolerances are also catered for.
There is disability access and a toilet accessible to wheelchair users.
The location is perfect for those choosing to have their dinner / tea, after a day of shopping or walking around town and also for visitors to Doncaster. Train station is literally just 'right outside', so to speak and bus station just 2 minutes walk away, under cover.
Only one downside, which is - no heating. Although, it must be said that it's often hardly noticeable due to enjoyable atmosphere, the heat of the kitchen and all the warm bodies, especially at busy times.🙂
C. T.
Good menu reasonable prices. Friendly service. Would recommend.
T. L.
Yeah it's ok. It's good for food and drink deals. Very good in fact, but some of the clientele? Hmmmm.... Well, I guess it depends on your standards. However the staff are brilliant and friendly. Worth going if you wanna eat and drink. Wouldn't recommend it for a full drinking session though.
j. p.
Went for breakfast asked for bacon well done unfortunately it wasn't and sausage not enough colour for me sorry rest was nice
K.
Absolutely fantastic customer service. A friendly welcoming environment. The staff are always helpful and cheerful.
100 stars (because 5 isnt enough). Once again another fantastic Greene king pub.
D. I.
Amazing foods made by a brilliant chef #Marius
C. C.
Previous review 3 stars.. however much improved service especially now with the table service app. The lad with tattoos on his hands is excellent ... Always running about making sure everything is ok! Well done!
N. P.
Good food fair prices staff are friendly and welcoming a great place for a bite to eat with the kids or just to pop in for a swift pint
n. b.
been in a few times latley and theres 2 members of staff who are always polite and welcoming. one is a man behind bar called adam soon as i walk in he says hello how are you is there anything you need. always polite and welcoming even when you can hear hes rushed off his feet.
other one is either dan or danielle i cant remember which he said his name was. hes so polite too always comes over asks if my guide dog would like any water or anything else. if he sees me going to loo he comes and unlocks door to disabled to save me struggling even if he was busy taking plates away you can hear him quick putting them down, hes such a lovley person
both these 2 are assets to the pub and make the place seem so much nicer. when these 2 are in the place atmosphere seems so much happier and welcoming even when they get drunks shouting at them.
L. H.
Always friendly staff and a nice atmosphere in the Mallard. Great location too in the Frenchgate Centre.
K. M.
The fact I could order my 6m old a Heinz puree that came in a little dish was quality! 😂
I usually feel so bad when I'm eating and she's sat there watching me and there nothing she could really have other than a chip, so that was definitely a highlight for me which is quite sad.
And the 2 for 10 meals are great.
Might go again soon!
M. H.
Good pub for families food here is good especially for the price. I like the balcony and the integrated tvs for kids on the booth tables. Sometimes I come here with friends for a quiet drink too but it's mainly child orientated.
J. M.
Nice environment, friendly staff, good menu especially covering allergens and good service. Toilets could do with a tidy or refurbishment
S. D.
Nice place, nice staff and nice food, good prices.
C. R.
Open early doors for breakfast but worth a visit any time of the day as the service is second to none and the food is pretty much to die for . Can get busy as lunch time so maybe get in early for a seat. Plenty to choose from on the menu. Drinks cocktails food and desert . It's defo worth a visit for something different..
M. W.
Good menu, but no longer serve Sunday Lunch. Lasange decent, my husbandsYorkie Pud, okay but cold inside. Drinks very good. My salad was drenched in salad cream which I detest. Would not eat this menu again. Will try something else as has nice seating and a good vibe.x
J. L.
Always great quality food. Hard working staff very friendly.
A. “. /. B. O.
When this place first opened they had an American platter for £14 . It was well worth it. Plate was full and there was I believe 5 different meats. Some sort of beans. Coleslaw. Sweet potato fries and corn on the cob. Last time I went there wasn't as much on the plate and 2 of the meats weren't included. Wasn't worth the £14. Foods good tho
S. M.
Popped in for a quick breakfast before I went to work and I must say well done to the staff so organised I was greeted by a young man at the door with a visor showed me to my table went through the menu and the scan code made me feel comfortable...then had breakfast brought out by another young lad also protected with a mask kept checking everything was OK these guys need recognition for the effort they have put in...well done very professional 👏 👍 👌
J. T.
Lovely place to eat have a drink and chill . Friendly staff to. Cant wait to go back
F. A.
The service was really good. The food wasn't too great though. Had the fish and chips and cheesecake. Will try something else next time.
J.
Not bad. My order came wrong. They was happy to correct it but didn't have time. Average all round really.
A. S.
I really enjoyed the food and the staff was really nice.
D. D. Z.
Only called in for a drink, not a big selection, only two guessed beers. Meals looked quite good and reasonably priced. A good meeting place. Will call again and have a meal next time.
b. w.
Food always very good service couldn't be any better that's why we keep going back
J. B.
Excellent meal in the Mallard as always, Great service, staff and value for money, totally recommend
C. S.
Called in for a quick drink while waiting for my train. Drinks were a good price and didn't feel conspicuous sat on my own. Comfortable relaxed atmosphere.
A. G.
Arrived with 2 young kids at what seemed to be rush hour, so expected an uncomfortable time. However, staff were efficient as could be and 2 seperate ones apologised for delays which was marvellous. Food wise, 8 & 4yr olds stuffed every last baked bean, always a rarity. I'm vegan & pub food can be a nightmare but ordered the vegan 'fish' & chips which was bloody lovely. Throw in a colouring competition for the kids & all in all a mighty experience. Decent beer too. Definitely be back.
G. B.
Can't fault the food. Love going there to eat. Nice friendly staff.
T. B.
Pleasent. Low prices, 1 minute walk from train station door.

I’ll definitely be back again and again
R. W.
Really friendly staff, Mains were good, we had the mix it up and the mixed grill..
Ordered dessert and I wish we hadn't bothered as they were both really disappointing.
K. L.
Fantastic the gentleman that served us was brilliant I think he was called Daniel but boy did help make the day
K. H.
Visiting from Sheffield. Love the Mallard.briliant staff so helpful especially Emma
Excellent food too.
And
A couple of weeks ago I got distracted and didn't collect my change. Made a phone call to the Mallard and arranged to collect cash when we next visited a couple of weeks later. How's that for customer service and HONESTY
R. S.
Absolutely spot on!
Service is above average.
The atmosphere is out of this world.
M.
I had the small gammon & chips on a Sat lunchtime which was perfectly fine. The place was busy but clean & tidy & staff are pleasant. It's a good place for a lunchtime visit if you are in town.

1st time we had been out since lockdown. Had a nice meal and felt very safe.
A. H.
Not the best meal we have had in here, we chose the breakfast this time, partners was cold but they replaced it with another one without a problem, we have eaten in here before and enjoyed good food and service so can't be to critical
L.
Always have great food, good deals, started using the app, they are quick with the orders. Lovely staff always friendly.
P.
It's ok for a hungry horse pub but very busy for a family Friday night tea, food was fine and the beers beer, but we didn't feel relaxed as we do out of town, one big downer for anyone who visits there local hungry horse pub and then this one is how much more expensive the menu is here but not the beer, not sure about gin,wine etc? 🤔
S. C. (. M.
Very crowded and noisy when we visited and our Tesco voucher wasn't accepted. Food OK
S. F.
I had the double daddy burger and it was lovely, the burger was juicy and the pulled pork was full of flavour. My wife had a similar experience with the route 66 burger. Delicious.
A. P.
Great pub,to call at while in town, to have, breakfast, lunch or dinner, staff,Very welcoming & helpful.
D. C.
Love the mallard the bar staff are very freindly and go out their way to make you feel welcome the only complaint i have is nearer christmas its very hard to find somewhere to sit as its quite a small pub, but other than that the foods great they have special offers on alchol so even if your struggling with money you wont break the bank having a few drinks
b. b.
The food & the service are second to none. The staff are very hands on & can't do enough for their customers! I will always be going to the Mallard for my lunch when I visit the French Gate Centre. Thank you.
C. M.
Decor a little shabby, food ok if a little on the cool side, staff helpful

It was clean well sorted out for the pandemic. The staff was great and so was the beer.
J. F.
A great place to get a bite to eat and a drink at a decent price.
Order at the bar and your order is delivered at the table.
Mind how much you drink if you intend to continue shopping as your inside the Arndale Centre shopping mall

After having a bad experience at Woodfield farm. i tried the Mallard and what amazing food it was the staff were great manager was great the place was spotless. I 100% recommend this place for great food & great service
I. K. M. A.
This not the original Mallard pub in Donny as this is on my estate - Scawsby, however this does have better views of the railway station. Which is presently being turned into a grass lawn, with water fountains - just like Wakefield station. It has a small terrace for all you vapours & is ideal situated for trains, taxis or buses. But it will never have the atmosphere of the real Mallard as this hosts regular live bands / quiz nights.
D. S.
Loved the food, very well priced (Got a 2-for-1 burger meal), the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable, would recommend.
C. P.
Very nice place was great pub grub service was quick and the staff where friendly. Food was just right. Just was I was expecting.
