| Was at a conference in Liner Hotel up the road - went in with a mate after the conference - big pub - had 4 ales on and a box of cider - the place was more or less empty and I feared for the beer, however it was pretty good tbf. The toilets are poor as commented below - no lock on the traps and no bog roll in one of them - not good enough. kernott1 - 12 Nov 2011 08:26 |
| I still come in here every now and again. Business seems to have picked up - they now have regular band/session nights and show football or rugby games on a big projector screen. Gents toilets are still an absolute disgrace. The landlord/owner/manager is often seen running around barking orders at his staff but should look at himself first as he could really make this place happen, but he's not trying hard enough! mattbeer - 3 Nov 2011 04:20 |
| Still a disappointment on the whole. Had a pint of Icon on this visit which was okay. If you're meeting/seeing someone off on the train it is probably preferable to Coopers (and doesn't involve climbing stairs). Snarling_Mallard - 8 Oct 2011 10:58 |
| This is a huge disappointment. It should / could be so much better. Decent room but cold, dark, soulless, and lacking in real atmosphere. Having experienced the Head of Steam in Huddersfield (and the buffet bar at StalyVegas), I really can't see how such a bad job is made of things here. The Higsons I tried was ok and there were numerous others on tap, but not sure how well kept they were. ulverstoned - 16 Feb 2011 20:51 |
| @Snarling_Mallard The "shutter" entrance to the station from the pub is open, but not in the evening from 6 or 7pm onwards. It's to stop people from coming through to use the pub toilets which before 6 to 7pm you need the PIN (which is C1978X for the gents sewerage works) when the shutters are up. People in the station are then forced to pay 30p to use the station toilets, the entrance of which is by the "shutter" entrance to the pub. Although, I'd rather pay 30p to use the station toilets! I still occasionaly come to the Head of Steam while waiting for a train and have observed that when the pub is empty thay have 2 or even 3 bar staff on with no customers to serve, but when it's busy and full of people having pre-Empire theatre drinks they have one person serving behind the bar and it can take 10 minutes to get served! mattbeer - 25 Dec 2010 13:30 |
