Stumbled upon this place whilst out with a friend for a few beverages. Excellent pub with a good array of ales. We sat outside upstairs and there was a good mix of people all chilling and chatting away. Will definitely be visiting here again next time we come to Halifax. Great staff. First time having Brennan's stout and it was absolutely delicious!

Absolutely top drawer as a pub and equally good as a gig venue. Friendly staff, great choice of real ales and sound in the downstairs gig space was spot on. I'd be there all the time if I was a local - bit of a trek from Kent !

Had a couple of cracking points of pale ale. Really unique chilled vibe with a lot of eclectic furnishings. Barman (think he was the owner) put me in to a number of other bars doing great ales. Didn’t have to do this but put me in an excellent journey. Finished off the night back in here. 💯% worth the visit. Great little venue.

Lovely place to drop by for a drink, it's very retro with a lovely vintage feel. It's proper kitsch which is right up my street! Really friendly staff too, and a nice, chilled out atmosphere. We look forward to our next visit!
