62 /100 BrewDog Huddersfield (Bar) 29 ZETLAND STREET One of the more boring BrewDog locations insofar as taplists, at least on my visit. Lots of taps, but almost all their own and none of the more ambitious beers. Same deal as weather: 1/3 pints available and free tastes. Bottle/can list was lesser than most big cities’ locations. If you’re in HUD, may as well pop in but don’t expect much. |
60 /100 40 CHAPEL HILL Traditional spot with mostly cask ales and the outpost for Ossett Brewing. I wasn’t too enthralled with anything on, but they do have a more than average number of ciders on (6?). Smallest pour is 1/2 pints, but staff will do tasters. Nothing all that special here but may as well include it when doing the circuit in HUD. |
74 /100 The Grove (Bar) 2 SPRING GROVE STREET This must’ve been a lot more impressive years ago. How this is the #1 rated place in the UK escapes me. It’s a solid spot for sure though. They have close to 40 taps, with lots of casks, kegs, and ciders. Skews heavily towards traditional British ales, with a few more modern craft styles. 1/3 pints available. Large place with ancient but comfy furniture — very traditional, homey place, with lots of separate sections. If you’re in HUD, definitely worth a hit. |
78 /100 Arcade Beers (Bar) 6 STATION STREET Cool spot, a 3-minute walk from the train station. Old brick building with plenty of seating over two floors. 20 taps, 1/3 pints available; mostly modern styles with a few traditional beers scattered throughout. Small, well-curated bottle selection, 20% off for take-away. Very friendly service. Definitely worth a stop if in HUD. |
76 /100 40 CHAPEL HILL Larger than it looked from the outside with a car park behind. Felt very much like a local pub, with gas and darts. Plenty of Ossett group beers including 5 or so Rat beers. Certainly worth a visit if you’re in the area. |
72 /100 BrewDog Huddersfield (Bar) 29 ZETLAND STREET This is one of the Red BBQ franchise BrewDogs. Fairly large open warehouse style with the normal Brewdog look and feel. Only 1 guest beer on, but they said they normally have more. The food is the Red BBQ staples so decent. Exactly what you’d expect from a BrewDog. |
74 /100 Arcade Beers (Bar) 6 STATION STREET This is now more a bar with a couple of beer fridges than a bottle shop. 18 taps with a great range of uk beers, a few local beers included. There are two room one with the bar and fridges, the other with some tables. Dog friendly. No growler fills. |
82 /100 ST GEORGES SQUARE, Awesome spot. 8-10 casks served in proper condition. Welcome and warm service. Cheap. We tried 6 of their casks all in prime condition. Right next to "Kings Head" which is also a cracker. Lovely. |
84 /100 ST. GEORGES SQUARE Amazing. Charming and full of life. 10 Casks in fantastic condition. Friendly and welcoming service. Right by the station. One you wanna go back to and a must if in the area. |
80 /100 Star Inn (Free) (Bar) 7 ALBERT STREET Recommended by Bill, a random guy I met at the Calderdale CAMRA festival, so we met here for their own mini-festival, celebrating the lizes of two late regulars. Central bar with tables in two rooms, seating is more comfy in the front room than on the side. Nice range of cask ales, a total of 19 for the festival, including their normal offerings. Pies looked tasty but I had already eaten. Solid place. |
74 /100 BrewDog Huddersfield (Bar) 29 ZETLAND STREET Directly over the ring road from the University, opened late 2021. Split level with plenty of seating, mostly benches. Some outside seating also iirc. There are a couple of shuffleboard tables. 28 taps plus food from Reds BBQ. There's never enough guest beers at Brewdog bars these days to make them worth visiting every time |
62 /100 Cherry Tree (JDW) (Bar) 14-18 JOHN WILLIAM STREET Large Spoons. 10-12 handpumps. Plenty of better fare available in this fine town |
66 /100 Junction (Bar) 1 WESTBOURNE ROAD Traditional pub situated just north of the town centre. Mostly local cask beers served. |
66 /100 ST GEORGES SQUARE, Visit April 2010. |
68 /100 ST. GEORGES SQUARE Stopped in on my way back to Manchester. Big place, not many present and service was a bit of a struggle. My pints of a stout from Keighley were more than decent.
Station bars are a bit hit and miss, this just about gets my vote. |
68 /100 ST. GEORGES SQUARE [RBESG 2009]. |
76 /100 Star Inn (Free) (Bar) 7 ALBERT STREET [RBESG 2009]. |
74 /100 40 CHAPEL HILL Visit a few times |
88 /100 The Grove (Bar) 2 SPRING GROVE STREET Visit April 2012, plus many more times... |
66 /100 Slubbers Arms (Bar) 1 HALIFAX OLD ROAD Corner pub to the north of the town centre. Cozy atmosphere. Has served Taylor's Landlord for at least 30 years. It used to be a Taylor's pub, now a freehouse I believe. I had a pint of Landlord in there last weekend, £3.30 a pint |
70 /100 ST GEORGES SQUARE, Folk must get off the train at Huddersfield gasping for a beer, two pubs in close proximity to the railway station, this is one of them. Large four room place, there was a reasonable choice on the wickets |
60 /100 Plumbers Arms (Bar) 6 MACAULAY STREET Refurbed pub close to the bus station. Reasonable if fairly unexciting range of cask on offer |
66 /100 40 CHAPEL HILL Great brewpub to visit... |
94 /100 WILLOW PARK BUSINESS CENTRE, WILLOW LANE Magic is the Magic rock. |
90 /100 The Grove (Bar) 2 SPRING GROVE STREET Visited with friends on the 5th October 2019 after IMBC session. Near to the city centre around 10-15 minutes by foot from train station. This place is one of the beer temple on the earth. Very clean and clear place. Nice decoration and very confortable seat. Selection is just amazing. Very nice range of cask beer with nice breweries and type of beer selection and very attractive price! Tap selection is also very nice, and abordable. I didn't check directly the beer selection but from the website it looks also amazing. Staff is friendly, knowledgeable and efficient! Best adjectives to describe them! A must to visit! |
80 /100 40 CHAPEL HILL Voila!
Rat & Ratchet is THE PLACE
If you only have a limited time in Huddersfield.
Drop the other ones and use your time here
Just about 15 min walk from the train station
And old traditional English pub that have kept its charm. And have been transformed into a fine solid beer place.
No problem to get a sample.
I only wish they could sell small samples instead.
They only offer half pints. And 10 half pints is to much for one person. But ok if you are more people
|
60 /100 Cherry Tree (JDW) (Bar) 14-18 JOHN WILLIAM STREET Just another large Spoon
Nothing wrong with that
Always possible to find something and ok food
But nothing to recommend either |
60 /100 Vox (Bar) 10 WOOD STREET About 10 min walk from the train station
Seemed like a spoon pub to me.
Party place for younger people than me. Nothing wrong with that
But the beer selection was not that inviting for a beer nerd
Rat & Ratchet is THE PLACE
|
56 /100 Parish (Bar) 28 KIRKGATE Very close to the church. About 10 min walk from the train station
A bit loud music, and it seemed like a party place
Not that fancy beer selection either
|
62 /100 ST GEORGES SQUARE, Turn right when you get out of the train station. Then you are there.
Seems like 4 pubs gathered into one.
Decent tap/cask selection and a decent bottle/can selection
You can also eat here
Felt like Kings Head had a bit better selection
Visited before a football match. Quite crowded
|
66 /100 ST. GEORGES SQUARE Turn left when you get out of the train station. Then you are there.
Quite spacious pub with two rooms.
Quite good tap/cask selection and a decent bottle/can selection
Found some rare stuff
Visited before a football match. Quite crowded
|
84 /100 40 CHAPEL HILL Traditional pub not far from the Grove, very good choice of ales, the Rat beers being particularly impressive. My pint of King Rat went down well and prices are pretty reasonable for the ales on offer. Another fine pub in Huddersfield, a town that punches well above its weight in this regard. |
70 /100 62 NEW STREET A Sam Smiths pub, no frills and cheap prices in a comfortable boozer. No surprises here, just good old fashioned Yorkshire hospitality and a lovely bottle of Organic Chocolate Stout. |
68 /100 Vulcan (Bar) 32 ST PETER’S STREET You do get the impression that this is very much a pub for locals. Not unfriendly, but I did get some curious looks from some of the clientele. Five hand pumps on display, the ale I sampled was drinkable, although condition could have been better. I'm glad that a pub like this thrives in this day and age, as previous reviewer states prices are on a par with Wetherspoons. |
56 /100 Parish (Bar) 28 KIRKGATE Near to the lower part of the ring road close to where you'd head off towards the stadium, this is a corner music oriented pub with a decent enough focus on real ale, although having been here a couple of times I do find the selections to be more well-known staple offerings than anything experimental, which is fine if this is what you're looking for. The rotund bar is right upon you after you enter. |
54 /100 Zephyr (Bar) 61-63 KING STREET More bar then pub, with a couple of entrances either side of the building. It's split level inside with the service area at the top part. Keg ales dominate in here, although the selection is not that extensive, and having been in a few times over the years it doesn't rotate too often either. |
66 /100 ST. GEORGES SQUARE Big two room boozer next door to the train station. Around 8 to 10 cask beers on offer plus a couple of real ciders. A little rough & ready but the beers were well kept. Worth a look if changing trains |
62 /100 Lord Wilson (JDW) (Bar) UNIT 27, KINGSGATE CENTRE, KING STREET Large single room Lloyds / Wetherspoons bar on the edge of a shopping centre. It's nowt special but I did have a nice, well kept pint of Goose Eye Golden Goose |
40 /100 Hoults Wine Merchants (Beer Store) CASTLEGATE RETAIL PARK Can't really call this a beer shop - it's a wine shop with a couple of beers as a bit of an afterthought near the door. The few available were interesting craft though... |
72 /100 Sportsman (Bar) 1 ST JOHNS RD Nice place for a pub lunch and meat pie. A few interesting taps |
88 /100 The Grove (Bar) 2 SPRING GROVE STREET Very eclectic pub with various themed rooms. Large modern cask selection with a half dozen additional kegs. But the real find is the bottle list hidden behind the bar. A great selection of UK, Northern Europe and US bottles. Must visit. |
86 /100 WILLOW PARK BUSINESS CENTRE, WILLOW LANE Nice open layout behind the brewery with lots of space, barrels, and wood. 10 taps and 3 casks when I was there - all Magic Rock. Pretty good selection of cans as well. Super friendly staff. Definely worth a visit just for the Magic Rock stuff. |
