EBG Rating: | 7.8/10 |
Choice/ Quality of Drinks | ❤️❤️❤️ Excellent local cask ale options, however fairly poor range of keg and bottles given the beer centric format. Perfunctory alternatives |
Style/ Décor | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Distinctive retro downstairs and bar area with ceiling fans slowly rotating, wooden bench seats and an antiquey ale house vibe, albeit genteel. Piano and several little side rooms. Upstairs is a 2nd largely unused pointless bar with some space for music performances, perhaps slightly tackier decor and furniture by comparison. |
Atmosphere/ Character | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ A sense of local life immediately and a quirky distinctive hangout spot. |
Amenities/ Events | ❤️❤️❤️ Music, snacks, events, limited outdoor space |
Value For Money | ❤️❤️❤️ Mediocre for the area |
Description | We are pleased to report the refurbishment hasn’t ruined this ale house revival which retains its nooks and crannies downstairs along with the distinctive ceiling fans and wood panels, piano and great cask ale options. Shipley are lucky to have this and The Fox as local drinking options when considering the situation in nearby towns. (Added August 2021) |
