This pub features in the Camra National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors. A busy pub even on a Monday lunchtime visit. There was an even mix here of diners and drinkers. The food looked good and has a good reputation, the portions are also on the large size. On arrival we went into the small snug bar to order our drinks, this small area soon became packed, so as Will mentions, we went around to the larger lounge and bar.
This is a good destination pub and well worth a visit. There were six Ossett ales on handpump and one cider on our visit. We went for the Kings Arms Bitter 4%, brewed by Ossett and Ossett Silver King. The weather was good on our visit, so we took our drinks out to the front, where we found some bench seating and some other chatty drinkers. There is also a conservatory at the rear of the pub and a beer garden.

A lovely old traditional country inn, with a confusing warren of rooms awaiting the unsuspecting visitor. There's a tiny tap room just to the right of the entrance, but the main bar is further round to the right after passing a hatch that gives access to the bar from the corridor - if you can attract the server's attention. A battery of hand pumps awaits, but the beers are all listed on a blackboard in the small tap room. To the left are a couple of nice old rooms with wood panelling and gas lighting, and there's a further corridor through to the restaurant in the adjoining building. At the back is a modern conservatory. The eight beers, mostly from Ossett Brewery, are supplemented by a cider. The pub is well worth a visit, even for the casual drinker by public transport, as the pub is easily accessed by frequent buses (but please note that most involve a short walk from the nearby main road), though a lot of people clearly drive here for the food.

Changed since my last visit. Clarks distibute Ossett Beers and of the 8 Real Ales on offer priced from £2.50 -£2.70 none were from Clarks and the House Beer Kings Arms Bitter is from Ossett.
Didnt check out the food but what I did see the portions looked a good size.
Further to some comments from other reviwers staff all appeared on the young side and in the bar servise was erratic as bar staff deep in converstaion with friends.
