| Called here a few days ago, pre-smoking ban, when the nearby 'Fernandes Tap' was particularly carcinogenic. On the plus side the beer was well kept, as you'd expect with strong links to the local CAMRA branch and a Good Beer Guide listing. There were three beers from Yorkshire micros on the go,although normally there are four.It was also pretty cheap. The barman was friendly and welcoming. However, it was pretty spartan: Formica topped tables, plastic chairs and fluorescent strip lighting.The piped seventies rock music was slightly depressing. As my drinking partner noted it was like stepping into a time warp. I'm certainly not agin a basic boozer,but this was certainly out of my aesthetic comfort zone. The only way I could see myself returning was if there was an artist I wanted to see on the popular accoustic music nights. aleandhearty - 10 Jul 2007 20:50 |
| The first two times I went here they had excellent live music on. A bit quiet on my last visit but the selection and quality of the ales was just as good. Dave59 - 31 Jan 2007 10:13 |
| Visited on 15/10/2004. Very friendly staff, and a superb range of beers on handpump. This is more of a club than a pub, but as a complete stranger I wa made to feel very welcome. The premises divide into two rooms, one is mainly for private parties whilst the front bar is more like a pub. Wood pannelling throughout creates a homely feel. A typically "Northern" feel is afforded by use of fluorescent lighting. A must! lad_newton - 20 Oct 2004 12:04 |
| Basically a shed, painted red, with a great bar inside, open to public. Real ales on, crisps and other packet snacks behind bar. Having been there some time ago I would give it 8/10 Andy - andywalwyn@hotmail.com - 18 Oct 2004 23:15 |
