Great bar with a wide selection of beers and a burger offering. Burgers were tasty. Sharing platters of fries feed 4, we had the mock duck hoi sin which were fab.
Amazing burgers which were served super quick. Wide selection of beers too. Struggled to find somewhere decent to eat that was open in Hebden Bridge but really pleased we found this place.
Called in here New Years Day.
Lovely setting, plenty of seating, great choice of beers (including sours), very friendly knowledgeable staff.
As well as having a drink on site we bought some cans & new glasses to continue the joy of Vocation beer at home.
We’ll visit again next time we’re in this area, but I’ll still continue to buy my Vocation beer via their web site too.
(Didn’t order any food, as not ready to eat when we were there, but their menu looked very inviting)

Dog friendly place. Great selection of beers & ales which some can be bought to take out. Lovely place, lovely staff & a nice atmosphere. Food is tremendous, I had the cheeseburger & is one of the best I have had! Also a nice selection of wine too. Highly recommend just for the cheeseburger! Definitely go back.
Popped in while we were in Hebden Bridge. Great selection of their own beers and some from other brewers. Food very nice and came quickly even though it was busy. Well worth a visit
Great place for a beer. Didn't eat but food looked great. Staff really helpful and it's also dog friendly.
It's not often you can go somewhere that has incredible drinks, incredible food, incredible service and where dogs are allowed, but Vocation and Co is one of those places.
The drinks from Vocation are often different, bursting with flavour. The food is from Slap and Pickle, one of the best burgers I've had. There are good vegetarian and vegan options too.
If you're after food, I'd book before coming so you can get a booth. It's always fairly busy on an evening with a good atmosphere. If you're after something quieter, during the day should be fine.
Highly recommended!
Perfect stop off after walking up and down the valleys. Love Vocation so it was great to finally get to the tap room. Good selection of beers on. Very dog friendly, probably one to swerve if you're not a dog person. The burgers by Slap and Pickle were super tasty though - we enjoyed the fries especially, never experienced a better sauce vessel!
About time I visited this place! Hebden Bridge has been on my Places To Visit List for a while now, and Vocation’s location in the little Yorkshire town may have played a part…
Although we didn’t have time enough to visit the actual brewery, the taproom was lovely and we were well-looked after.
The burger fries were delicious, as were our drinks!
A fantastic place in a great location.
Staff are super friendly, very attentive, knowledgeable about the beers and want to make sure you have a good experience.
This is a specialist craft beer venue, and their extensive range is great, something for everyone from porters, fruit beer, IPAs etc (they even had a raddler on when we went). Absolutely fantastic value.
Food was delicious, it's a compact menu (as it's more bar food to accompany the beer than an actual restaurant), however most people should be able to eat here, even with veggie and vegan options. It's well priced and super delicious, portion size on chips is really good as well.
Venue looks fantastic, really bright and modern, spaces inside and out, bar, booths and more... Also great atmosphere and a really friendly crowd as well.
Would really recommend and a destination if you're ever in the area.
19/03/24: Swinton A Relief day out! Vocation: Brass Monkeys IPA 5%, Vocation: Naughty & Nice Chocolate Orange stout 5.5%, Vault City: Fizzy Watermelon Slices sour 4.1%
02/10/23: Team day out! Death by Mangoes sour 4% and Naughty & Nice Coconut 10% and U OK HON?: Pineapple Hot Honey sour 6.5%.
12/08/22: Hebden Bridge Ale Trail: Vocation are outstanding at brewing beer. When I say beer, I should state Craft Ales, Porters, Stouts, Sours and general Session Ales. They have catered and created something that everyone can find a favourite of. Part of our Hebden Bridge ale trail, it was our first stop and for me, probably one of the best places in Hebden Bridge. We didn't sample any food, although thr menu also looked impressive (burgers and fries). We drank Death by Cherries cherry sour, Life & Death Session IPA and Sunset Overdrive piña colada sour.
First ever visit to this bar on the main road opposite the canal marina. Surprisingly large bar plus outside pavement seating. Vocation brewery real ales. Lovely bitter. Also big craft keg selection for fizz lovers. Great atmosphere.
What a place! Lovely inside with spots to sit outside too. Great selection of drinks including a few from other breweries.
The food was unexpectedly good. It does vegetarian and vegan options, and possibly the greatest fries I've ever encounted (I had the vegan hoisin duck fries).
It was clean and the staff were super friendly. It was so good, we actually came back again before going home!
Both the beer and the food were excellent. We had the burgers, loaded fries and onion rings and enjoyed everything. The Vocation beers have something for everyone and very tasty.
Fantastic choice of beers, both from Vocation and other breweries. The food from Slap & Pickle was great to soak up some of those strong IPAs. The veggie/vegan burgers were amazing! The staff were friendly and helpful and dogs are welcome. Will definitely be back!
Absolutely amazing. Vocation has some of the best beers, and the burgers are amazing! Juicy, full of flavour and really filling!
Visited here after a friend had recommended it to my partner and I and were not disappointed. They have a great selection of beer and the three that we tried were all delicious. There is seating out at the front and plenty of space inside. The staff were both extremely friendly and helpful. Their bathroom facilities are nice and are enclosed gender neutral bathrooms which we both valued. They are quite narrow meaning some people may find them difficult to access but for most people it wouldn't be an issue. Would definitely come here again.
We've eaten A LOT of burgers in our time and this was quite possibly the best we've ever had. We both had the Smokin Bun - juicy, but not greasy and very tasty. And goes without saying, but the beer was great too 😀
Best burger I have had for ages ironic being in evil bridge. V shaped fries need to be tasted to be believed. Don't drive the beers are far too tempting. Best discovery this year so far.
