Will Larter left this review about The Exchange Tap

Simple bar counter in the WX. Close to a cafe and a Tex-Mex food stall, a large hall and some pavement seating. Four hand pumps serving Jolly Boys Brewery beers at £5/pint. My half of WX Pale 3.7% was Acceptable, which is more than I can say for the background music. No rating submitted as this is not a pub, though you can get a drink.

New taproom and microbrewery, housed in the city’s new creative hub (Wakefield Exchange). Its opening marks the return of a Jolly Boys venue, after the closure of the Jolly Tap, in nearby Northgate, in 2022. The brewery in WX will replace the one in Barnsley.
