A popular fast food restaurant in Wakefield has closed down more than five years since they opened.

Award-winning Bear Kitchen, known for its “fast food with attitude,” has built an army of fans thanks to its environmentally friendly and ethically sourced hand-made ‘junk food.’ From The Big Grizzly Burger to dirty fries and chicken wings, owner Ben Atkinson was a trailblazer when he first opened Bear Kitchen with his indulgent American-style grub on Westgate End. Ben and his team even moved in together in a flat above Bear Kitchen during lockdown to continue serving customers.

He said: “Over time, support will be needed more as we see the after effects of this year.” In his “last ever” video on social media, fighting back the tears, Ben said: “Thank you to everyone for making it such an awesome journey. “I absolutely love you all. Thank you to Wakefield.” For their final weekend Bear Kitchen sold a special menu called The Bear Finale until they ran out. On hearing the news, fans were quick to share their support. “Properly properly gutted,” one fan said.
