In 1790 this stone-built pub was used as Halifax's first post office. It's now situated beside a busy bypass, but remains a friendly place, with a long and comfy lounge. A large room to the rear doubles as a tap room and function room, complete with a pool table.

The opening hours are advertised as 'until close' so please check with them if you intend to arrive in the evening.

Information for this venue is provided by the Halifax & Calderdale Branch of CAMRA
