Nice selection of ales, but I'm not a big drinker and opted for the usual. Will definitely return as there's outside seating for catching some rays in the spring/summer. Very handy for the steam train and a lot cheaper than pubs in Haworth.

Walked in and my god did they see us coming!!!!! £24.50 for 2 drinks. My partner asked at the bar and he tried to tell him it was £14 for a small Prosecco….. Wouldn’t mind if the pub was nice it was an absolute dump 🤬 PLEASE AVOID

Brilliant friendly staff, pub has a Yorkshire "propa pub" feel about it would recommend it to any one. Also held a function here for our daughters christening it was a perfect venue for us and again would highly recommend. Good beer too

Popped in here for a pint whilst we waited for a train back to Haworth. Nice beer, gameboards to play (snakes and ladders in particular) and a huge shout out to the wonderful landlady who ran across a busy main road to reunite me with my phone, you are a legend!!
