When I arrived there was a pleasant Girl serving who was friendly. The soup was lovely, after the food I went to sit at the bar. The Chef told me the Queen of Thailand had passed away the day before, and I expressed my condolences explaining I felt for her remembering when our Queen passed away. She then went into I can only call an attack about our Queen, everything I tried to say she would not listen, bringing up Diana etc. Totally uncalled for in my opinion. Then she went off I think she said for a cigarette. I managed to get a little conversation out of the lad behind the bar, think he said he was Polish. He also said he was going for a cigarette, I said if anyone comes I let them know you won't be long. Some people did, and he returned straight away. After that he was more interested in his mobile phone, even reading messages whilst pulling pints for people. One man pointedly said 'when you are ready' but he didn't pick up the vibes. So I would say the food was good, but the service severely lacking. This was Saturday evening and by the time I left about 9 there were not many people in the pub, which to be honest didn't surprise me. Shame really.
My partner and I visited here for the weekend back in September, it was lovely! The room was nice and clean and the Thai food is the best I’ve had. We are looking forward to returning as we are now moving to Hebden Bridge, it will be our first stop on moving day!
We like to come here to eat and drink after a day of foraging. It's nice and cozy, you can actually talk without music drowning out conversation. Staff are nice and friendly.
Very noisy even after pub closing time, and very early in the morning when we were woken by what sounded like cutlery being tipped into a bath. Barely slept. The service was unfriendly and we had trouble getting our bikes back in the morning after locking them in the 'barn' the night before. We did have a good walk in the surrounding hills.
I love this pub and the Thai food always great service. Lots of history also surrounding the Yorkshire coiners. Plenty of info up and around the pub. Lovely place to call in after a walk.
