Good local pub. Not many left. All age ranges go here.
Good beer, with pleasant bar staff. They have quiz nights and karaoke disco nights. As for festivities, the land lady goes mental. If you want to enjoy your surroundings at Christmas, Halloween, Easter, football, anytime, this is the place around Heckmondwike/Liversedge to go!
This is the best pub In Heckmondwike, Debbie and Terry go above and beyond in welcoming you in to a great atmosphere, there's always a theme going on with decorations throughout, they never miss a trick. This pub is a credit to the area and is well worth a visit.
Beer was good. Was busy and had some nice chats with other people. Had a talk with the local DJ. It's fine for a local.
Don't expect an upmarket fancy wine bar or gin palace... its Heckmondwike! This is a boozer, they do beer crisps and nuts, pool nights and music (dj & karaoke etc.) and a cracking barbecue when the weather is good. If you are expecting more than that you are not in the wrong pub but the wrong town!
