Firehouse

Visited on 28th May 2016. Two floored venue which has a modern decor. Lots of seating on both floors. Downstairs busy when we arrived but got a table upstairs. A good beer range with a decent mix of cask and keg. Both were well kept and had plenty to keep us ticking. Food was decent enough without setting the Firehouse alight. Good venue. Worth a look in.

The best pub in Sowerby Bridge for the beer lover. Real ale and craft beer from some of the best British brewers are available. On our visit there were beers from Thornbridge, Magic Rock, 5 Points and Redwillow.There were a decent bottle beers available too. The food is also excellent. The only downside is that it is expensive.

Refurbished in spring 2014, they proceeded to increase the cask pumps to six and doubled that number for their keg options, half of which are from microbreweries. There’s two permanent ales in the cask selection but the other four pumps do change as and when they are sold out. Their bottled selection is now the most impressive in the valley town, again with plenty of crafted ale options. Located a couple of doors after the bridge that crosses the Calder River it is still essentially a restaurant with some good deals to be found, but it’s also now very amenable to drinkers as a bar and does remain open past its food serving hours for this purpose. Naturally it has an appealing and relaxing decor for all its purposes. This place is owned by the same people that run the Old Gate in Hebden Bridge.
