Visited on Thursday afternoon. Very impressive public house, lots of different rooms and places to sit together, both inside and out. Large range of cask ales. A small group we ordered the apparently famous pies and ordered beef type with peas and gravy which came in a package including a select pint of cask ale for around £13. Unfortunately the pie was not fresh, it gave the impression it had been held in a hot oven for a couple of days. The semi mushy peas appeared to be from a tin and the gravy was very rich and only a small amount. Look I loved the pub. All the staff we met were wonderful. The pies were not up to scratch though.
Along time since I visited here. But will definitely be back. Beer in excellent condition. Kirkstall brewery mild at 6.5 in great condition. Also Brew York superb. Great interior decor. Superb choice of beers including 3 milds. Food available and pleasant,not to loud background music. Part of Huddersfield railway station.
Had an absolutely fabulous time in this wonderful pub. Staff were friendly, efficient and thorough management obviously doing a good job. I’m here from Vancouver. Canada and I would definitely return to this location.
Great pub handy for the rail station ( one of a pair at each end of the station building). Good choice of beers and truly exceptional staff.
Argyle playing "The Terriers" today! Nearly 7hrs after setting off from Devon, I have arrived!! Right alongside the railway station is this impressive pub. Met with the Midlands cronies and had a few jugs. Had a real ale called "Legover" which was excellent. Good speedy bar staff as it was busy. 1400 fans again today. Trouble is these pubs don't cater for the avalanche of fans and consequently within the hour they were down to 2 ales from the original 12 !! They really need to do their research because they are dipping out massively financially by not planning in advance.....Nice pub though with fans from both teams enjoying the camaraderie....
