Nice venue - live bands on fortnightly
What a brilliant place, from the outside look to the old fashioned interior. Open fires a fine selection of beers at good prices. Harps back to the days when pubs were pubs. Brilliant staff, a warm and comfortable place to sit with friends and talk.

What a wonderful gem of a traditional pub we stumbled across after going to a gig at Piece Hall. Traditional old pub, very welcoming, great to chat with the locals. Awesome ale, try the signature brew called The Royal Oak, so tasty and was only £2.65 a pint, after spending a month down South that wa
Love this place, we warmly call it the Harry Potter pub. Husbands first experience of doing karaoke too. Always lovely staff and somewhere we visit everything we are in halifax.
