Cant believe the negative comments about this pub. I have always found the vulcan to be one of the friendliest ive ever known. The beer is cheaper than anywhere else the food is amazing and the people are very welcoming and friendly. The smoking area is out the back under cover and it is probably the only pub left that has all the sport channels and is able to show every football and rugby game, the races tennis golf and anything else you can think off. It is very customer focused and is really the best kept secret in Huddersfield. Not many people know about it and are always surprised at what a great place it is. It does have a name as an old mns pub but trut me it is nothing of the kind. If you want to find salt of the earth true yorkshire people young and old the Vulcan is the place for you. Friday night is Karaoke, Saturday night is disco and every other sunday there is a turn on. Get yourself down there or miss out. The only reason you wouldn't like this place is if you yourself are a boring miserable old fart!!!

Went in there a few days ago only to find the most unwelcoming bunch of people (talk about miserable and cold shouldered).To make matters worse a group of young punks came in and decided to act like animals and hog the pool table,continuously going in and out of the pub obviously having a puff of the old jamaican woodbine.I agree with the previous comment not a place to bring families or to comr if you want a nice tranquil drink.

6 months ago I would have given this pub 9 out of 10 but now the only thing going for it is the good food. The beer is as expensive as everywhere else in town and more than 10% of your pint is froth. To make matters worse hooligans are encouraged to drink so definitely not a place for families or couples.

Went insaturday seemed ok to me - busy and friendly enough.
|
Theakstons and Bass have been replaced by 2 changing guests - Davenports and Nellie Dene on Sunday. The no smoking section has disappeared. Has a pool table and Sky sports.
|
Went in with 4 friends on a Saturday afternoon. Not very impressed as the only bitter on was a rather watery Worthingtons.
|
3 real ales on, Worthington, Theakstons Best and Bass and is cheaper than most around. Wouldn't disagree with the previous comment, but is very smoky.

If you ever visit Huddersfield you must experience the delights of the Vulcan. A documentary should be made about this place, the clientele is a muddle of old men, postmen, weirdoes, alcoholics and students. The beer is good, the cheapest doubles bar I have seen, happy hour all night on a wednesday, the roast dinners at weekends are brilliant, staff friendly enough especially Pam who will always give you a warm welcome. A good proper pub full of real people and you should look out for the drunken air guitar antics by the regular drunks when the seventies themed disco starts, many a fun time had. I live down south now but always pass through the vulcans doors when i'm back in town.
