Reviewed By Realistmjp - Romsey, United Kingdom

As part of my journey around the UK buying beer for home consumption during lockdown. I came across the Saltaire Brewery and ordered two cases from different selection boxes on the website. Most impressed and will be ordering again. Hopefully one day will be able to visit - certainly the bottled beers delivered all very good Chocolate Stout, Cafe Culture and the Black IPA to name a few were excellent.

Reviewed By Bulbweasel - Leeds, United Kingdom

Ticks every box of what a traditional pub should be like. A tap room and a lounge, great selection of drinks at very reasonable prices, fantastic landlady and landlord, polite, attentive staff, a warm and friendly group of regulars, dog friendly, a great quiz (when Covid’s not in town) and they’ve even managed to create a great beer garden at the rear during the Covid crisis. Well done ????
