| Visited this pub for the first time in March for the beer festival. Another impressive pub with a good range of beers on the handpumps. Good atmosphere for drinkers without the machines a lot of pubs are so keen on. Outside was impressive. A large marquee with handpumps galore down a long bar. I mean loads - about 50 if I remember right!! Friendly staff serving and seating inside too made it a great day out. Two in fact as we came back again. So much choice of well served beers. Some new breweries there too. Fantastic. Lovely pub dog too. gillhalfpint - 10 Jul 2009 11:58 |
| Called in for a couple of pints this lunchtime (Easter Saturday), and the pub was fairly quiet apart from a friendly couple drinking various real ales and a gently snoring dog tucked up in the corner. It's a ten minute walk from Huddersfield town centre, but well worth the effort. My pints of Marathon Ale from the Six Bells Brewery and Union Ale from the Rugby Brewing Company went down a treat, and that's just sampling two of the bar's 10 handpumps. Nice, decent, boozer. Wish there were more of 'em! parksidepete - 11 Apr 2009 16:41 |
| A derelict back street pub, as recently as 2002, The Star is now a genuine freehouse which is held in high regard on the Huddersfield ale circuit. Owner and landlady, Sam, has created a warm & welcoming traditional community pub, with the emphasis very firmly on the beer. Expect a varied selection of micro brewers' offerings, warm fires, and plently of locals propping up the bar. But don't be surprised if a mini bus pulls up outside to drop of a visiting CAMRA branch! The pub isn't very big, so it can get busy, but its only 5 minutes down the road from the Rat & Ratchet, so it makes a nice little run out of, or into, town. Also, look out for the occaisonal beer festivals - approx. 60 handpulls in the large marquee in the yard, making The Star the best pub festival in the area. viewfromthebar - 13 Feb 2009 13:42 |
| This and the Rat up the road are the two best pubs in Hudds, Strange location but well, well worth the visit - friendly and relaxed. Good range of beers. zamora250 - 7 Jul 2007 14:27 |
| Can't believe that no-ones commentated on this pub for over 2 years! Well, it's still fantastic, with a range of ales I've never seen before, including at the moment a decent selection of milds. Worth noting that they've already gone smokeless. Pure class! Bob_Sherunkle - 31 May 2007 11:50 |
