A large multi-roomed pub in an old building that has been substantially extended over the years. Its isolated setting, between the Brighouse & Denholme Road and Roper Lane, gave it a reputation for illicit gambling and drinking in the 1860's. Trade is now mainly geared to dining and functions. The premises comprise a drinking and games area, a dining area and a function room. The five handpumps on the large bar tend to feature cask ales from local breweries and some of these may be re-badged as house beers. A further twelve keg taps offer a range of mass-produced lagers, beer and ciders. There is also a Guinness dispenser. Boxed Lilley's cider is also available. The function room is very popular and is used for numerous events. A lunch club is held on Wednesdays and a carvery is available on Sundays. Breakfast is available Sat & Sun, 8.30am-11am. There are excellent views over the valley towards Halifax from the decked outside seating area. There is a bar and pizza shed in the beer garden. Pizzas are available Thursday & Friday evenings and during the day on Saturdays and Sundays.
Food service times in the restaurant area are to be confirmed.
When visited in Aug 2026, the cask ales were bring charged at premium prices.
