Went in again on teh way home from work the other week - Budvar dark on tap, and some other great imported lagers including a cherry lager- ver nice good friendly pub, that nevre fails to disapoint.

Great pub - It's got a festival array of real ales and some top continental beers but it is one of the best places for real cider I know of in Yorkshire with regular offerings from Thatchers! Added to this it does not have pool and the juke box has proper music played at a level where conversation rules!

Huddersfield Pub of the Year again. Also Yorkshire Cider pub of the year runner up! Still bloody marvellous.
|
Superb pub with a brilliant selection of ales. Very rushed as we were off to watch Orient beat Huddersfield but the pint of porter went down a treat. Would like to return at some point.
|
Fabulous! On the way to see Carlisle United play at Huddersfield Town, the ever-reliable Good Beer Guide sent us here. Doesn't the heart just soar when you walk into a bar and there are at least a dozen real ales?!
A friendly and knowledgeable staff (all the beers we tried were magnificent, especially Yorkshire Blonde), good pub grub ... and Carlisle won! Please can we play Hudders in the cup?!

Popped in again on Saturday night- beer festival on - fantastic!
|
brilliant pub, excellent manager. i hear that one of his protégés is now manager of the drop inn in elland, well worth a visit.
|
A gem in a town that lacks the real feel good pub atmosphere this is one of the best pubs goinfg along with the star up the road .
|
Another visit on Friday 15th June produced the usual result - cracking real ale in a cracking pub. Highly recommended.
|
Great pub. Is both Huddersfield's Pub of the Year and it's Mild Pub of the Year!!! Richly deserved.
|
the rat for me is a good pub, i have never had a bad pint in there, but i have never had an outstanding one either. though it still is a must call on a huddersfield pub crawl.
|
Highly recommended. Has improved since Osset bought it (and it was good before that). Good range of beers, could do with a quiz machine.
Well worth a visit.
|
Easily the best pub in Huddersfield with 12 real ales, unobtrusive juke box with hits from yesteryear, pinball etc..
Always four Ossett beers, two Taylors beers and six ever changing guests, one of which is always a varied dark mild, one a stout or porter. This great pub should be your first port of call when in Huddersfield or even Yorkshire.
|
Huge choice of ales on here, good atmosphere, light and easy jukebox, cheese + ham rolls on the bar
|
Top pub and well worth a visit for the excellent selection of well-kept ales. As said in previous comments, it's an unpretentious place with good beer and polite, efficient staff which is surely all one can ask for. My favourite pub in Huddersfield and will continue to be so.
|
Great choice of well served real ales with a smile and a thank you.Just what a pub should be.
|
THE pub in and around the town centre to drink. Great beer good jukebox, good range of people, unpretentious.
|
I sometimes think about going all the way to huddersfield just to go back to this pub. Keep up the good work.
|
Osset Brewery now own this excellent pub. Good and varied range of beers.
|
Great pub, great beer.
|
The silly name is the only problem with this exemplary
ale-house.
|
This is a tip top ale house.
There were 9 or 10 different beers to choose from all well below 2 quid a pint when I visited.
There's a cracking jukebox and the chip butties at £1.30 are a bargain.

Whenever i visit a strange town i always ask Flopper for his top recommendation. He suggested this place and as always he was right.
Twelve real ales on at the time of my visit and those which i tried were top quality. It looks like it has been refurbished quite recently and the service was friendly too.
|
Superb. This pub has been tastefully refurbished since my last visit, and the drinking area adjacent to the bar has been opened up affording a warm convivial atmosphere within.
An ever-changing range of exquisite beers continues to be pulled by friendly staff, including two bouncy, singing dancing barmaids. I only had time for one beer there but the pub merits a whole evening session. Go there - you will not be disappointed. I have upped my rating for the pub to 10/10.

Excellent Real Ale pub. Always worth a visit.

Ace pub, good beer, loads of guest ales, pub cat, wood floors, friendly staff. Old fashioned session drinking boozer for the man (or woman) who wants a night of drink and the craic with mates.

Used to have our Real Ale meetings here when I was at Uni. It was over ten years now, it used to stock a huge range of beers. Not my fav pub, but it used to be great when you needed a real beer.

Excellent bare floor boards pub with a superb range of beers, sometimes including 1 brewed on the premises.

A superb, friendly alehouse, offering a constantly changing range of real ales with some home-brews. Up to fourteen beers. Locals very friendly, and this is a superb pub to start a crawl or to spend the entire evening - you will be spoilt for choice! Recommended!
