| Spent a lovely weekend here the other saturday afternoon. It's a bit of a trek out of the city centre but worth the hike. The bar staff were lovely, really friendly and we met a great crowd of regulars. Nice beers, I enjoyed the Magic Rock Rapture. Proper proper good pub this. Can't go wrong. bobbi - 15 Jan 2012 19:10 |
| My favourite pub - only the Fat Cat in Norwich and the Sheffield Tap come close, and neither surpass The Grove. If you like real ale and craft beers (as I do) you can't really ask for more than 18 ale pumps including Gadds, Thornbridge, Brew Dog, Dark Star, Buxton and Magic Rock...to name but a few. The selection of beers on offer is incredibly well chosen and prices are very reasonable with real ale pints around £2.40 to £2.90 (prices work on an increasing scale of ABV). All beers are served in pints, halves and third of a pint measures - making sampling much more manageable. In addition to the real ale there's also 20 keg beers and I'm told that the beer menu I was browsing contains over 230 bottled beers...but in honesty, with the range of draughts on offer I'm not sure why you'd drink bottle. In short, a truly excellent pub. Point to note: The Grove is one of the few pubs I've come across in the north that doesn't use swan neck pumps, sparklers or gas assist on its real ale. As a born and bred Yorkshireman I was very skeptical about this on my first visit, but the beer turnover is quick and the ale is kept so fresh the beer still always seems to have a good tight head (which I initially found quite remarkable!). tosh_mckinlay - 6 Sep 2011 00:35 |
| This has to be one of the best pubs I have ever been in. The beer is well kept, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the place is clean and tidy. Some of the art work isn't quite to my taste, but I can hardly hold that against it! Regular rotation on the many pumps they have (I think there are maybe 15 or so). There's nearly always something on that I haven't tried before. Excellent. booozo - 30 Aug 2011 16:28 |
| Probably one of the best pubs you will ever come across. A remarkable selection of real ales (18 when I went), plus loads or ciders and lagers on draught and an extensive selection of bottled beers and spirits. The decoration is an eye opener! Wonder if the life-size paintings are of regulars? You will see what I mean when you go. Brother-in-Law and I went by chance for a quick pint while the lady's were shopping. 2 ½ hours and 6 pints later – say no more. The lady's joined us eventually and they loved the place also. All the beers were in top form. Glasses are oversized with a pint level so it is a true pint. No need to ask for “topping-up”. The locals were friendly as were the bar staff. Got the impression it was managed with an iron fist and no harm in that. This pub is 5 minutes from bus station and about 8 minutes from trains. Get there for a truly remarkable experience. dhekelia - 19 Apr 2011 19:05 |
| My second visit and as enjoyable as my first. Two Belgian bottles were quaffed, together with ales from breweries like Thornbridge, Gadds and Dark Star, all in perfect condition. Without a doubt my favourite boozer in Huddersfield, basic but charming. All boozers should strive for this understated charm! nokegthanks - 13 Apr 2011 21:08 |
