Visited midday on a Thursday. Very quiet with few customers but great beers. Theakstons landlord. Mmmmm Before we left we saw the pies being delivered. Couple of hours later we returned for the beer which had been our favourite of the day. The bar was filling up with friendly locals and we noticed information boards displaying future events, northern soul and such like. They say its bouncing in here some days and zi can well believe it. Prices were good. I must confess I ordered a cold pork pie and two packs of peanuts £4.50 It's on the right hand side of the train station, pub sign holds image of Jimi Hendrix. Cleanest Toilets you have ever seen

Part of the Huddersfield railway station. One large room and one side room. Beers from various breweries. Long Moor Pale (Small World) and Irish Sea stout (Bosun) were tried . Both very palatable. Food available if required. Bar towels hung out to dry on arrival in the beautiful weather.
