Hunters Inn, Otley

i remember the hunters from the 90's does anyone remember or know how to get in touch with the old landlord KEITH GREENWOOD .much appreciated

A white washed roughcast covered bungalow style building beside the main Harrogate to Bradford A658 road, set on a slight rise overlooking lower Wharfedale with views of the Chevin and the heights forming the south side of the dale. The interior is a single long room, stone paved as you enter from the front, bare boards elsewhere, and immediately in front of the door is the stone built bar counter. This carries three banks of three handpumps, each bank with one fairly mainstream beer, Tetleys, Theakston and Deuchars with beers from smaller breweries on the others, all I tried were in excellent condition. A comprehensive keg range of Coors, John Smiths Smooth, Guinness, Strongbow, Carlsberg, plus Warsteiner, Grolsch Weise and Addlestones cider. At one end is a raised area with tables and chairs and at the other is a pool table and an alcove decorated with pages from the Beano which houses games machines and a pinball table. A few couples were eating and drinking when I visited and the bar had a small group of cheerful men drinking beside it. As the front wall is almost completely window there is little decoration but the back wall has an assortment of drink related adverts, mirrors etc. Traditional bench seating is built in under the windows and there is a mix of tables and stools. Simple food, mainly pies and pasties are available and the pub is a Good Beer Guide stalwart. Buses from Otley, Leeds-Bradford Airport and Harrogate stop directly outside.

9 Cask Conditioned Ales available. Food 12.00 - 3.30 every day. #GBG listed#

Good CAMRA pub with a country inn atmosphere. 9 different real ales welcome you with taster shots by each pump. Food could be better.
