This is a food-led establishment, providing meals for users of both the national rail network and the preserved line. It has four handpumps, though initially with just two in use. Cask aspirators are in use to provide consistency. The bar opens at noon, though beer may be ordered from 10am with a sit down meal. Breakfast served 9-11, main meals from 12 noon. Open daily during half term times. The national network train times for Keighley station are displayed on an overhead monitor. Structurally, the bar is on a bridge over the track.

Historic Interest

Originally separate rooms for the Great Northern and Midland Railway parcels offices, which had goods inwards and goods outwards offices within the station complex. In 1916 it became the dedicated Midland Parcels Office covering both goods inwards and goods outwards. Following its demise as a parcels office it has variously been a second hand furniture shop, a musicians centre, and a cafe. Some people may recognise the location from films and TV productions such as Yanks (1979), and you too can stand on the footbridge (but not the roof).
