Imaginative nooks and crannies hideout with off centre angles and niches. Many unique spaces with wood fittings, stained glass and wrought iron stairs decorated with an enormous book collection, each table candlelit.

Naturally characterful space, atmospheric in the evenings. Sometimes a bit fuddy-duddy during the day and over-subscribed at weekends. But for good reason.

Description
|
A must-visit place for any beer drinker in West Yorkshire, combining a contemporary ale house concept with a uniquely sprawling concept. A café style bar room gives way to a warren of niches, off-centre shelving , angular nooks each stuffed with books, antiques and memorabilia. In the evening especially this creates a warm, brooding atmosphere. The star of the show is the beer selection with an impressive cask and keg offering covering traditional to modern, domestic to international. Here is proof that if you are prepared to go the extra mile in your concept it can make all the difference, we don’t just want to sip beer in a plain sterile room. With tap takeovers and Quiz Nights with free food there are further reasons, as if you needed them, to justify a visit to this excellent place. Halifax is extremely lucky to have three of the very best pubs in the country.
