Klubhaus, Shipley

n old exterior with a modernised and refurbished interior in modern bar style although it retains traditional bench seating. Open plan with a raised area at the left end with a pool table at the front and comfy seating behind, the small stage is at the right hand side. There are a fair few big screens showing sport, sadly with the sound up. Four pumps on the counter with very local brews from Salamander, Copper Dragon, Leeds and Saltaire, all in good nick. The single toilet is multi-purpose.

Solid-looking building with a large main bar in centre (including a corner stage), a pool room to the left as you enter and a side lounge area to right. Obviously refurbished relatively recently, but you get the impression that things have not quite taken off in the intended direction. Two of four handpumps working, offering Soltice Sun and Crazy Horse (£2.60), both from the local Salamander Brewery.

a lot has happened to this place since it was taken over. 2 x pool tables and ale lounge added, rear patio has had benches added outside the landlord (Ron) is well known locally and has brought a load of trade in from his previous pub and built up some good return trade. Main business is at weekends as saltaire is fairly light on bodies during the week, un less of course you are to go to fanny's ale house where all the ale heads go!!
