Now seems to be run directly by the KWVR with volunteer staff and limited opening hours. Four pulls at one end of the counter with Taylors beers, Landlord, Boltmaker & Golden Best on this occasion, in nice condition. Handy for trains on the main line or KWVR when the bar is open, main line trains are shown on a screen above the counter. As it’s a buffet bar, food is available but doesn’t take over, it looks like mainly drinking at the front, dining at the back which is less canteen like.

Visited back in Feb, there are four hand pulls with three on at the time of my visit, the other unclipped. On offer was TT Boltmaker, TT Golden Best and TT Landlord. Well we are in Keighley, after all. My Boltmaker set me back £2.50 for a half and had a bit of a farty aroma to it, but it tasted OK. Seemed a bit pricey and the service was not that friendly.
There are tables and chairs throughout the front room.
I didn't really take to the place and it felt a bit sterile, then again anywhere would after the Volunteers! It was also a bit chilly.
Nice to have tried but doesn't seem anything to rush back for.

Real Ale Ray left this review about Cafe Choux Choux
A family run café bar, which offers a reasonable choice of hot and cold snacks. There were four handpumps on the bar, with two in use offering one dark and one pale beer. We went for the Settle Blonde, which was in excellent condition, the other beer was Hopback Entire Stout. The large plasma screen behind the counter, with the train times, made this a very handy refreshment rooms before continuing our journey.

Standard station bar with weak Real Ale @ 3.9% so I had Symonds cider. Nothing to entice me back unless I was waiting for a train.

A tasteful station cafe bar by the main entrance to Keighley railway station. There are two rooms with the counter in the front room, home to four pulls including a well kept Yates Golden Ale as a regular, two guests and the fourth stump advertising a Cider and a Perry. Crisp modern style decor with traditional brown wooden tables and chairs in the front, leather sofas in the back along with more tables and chairs on a raised area. There is a view of the KWVR tracks from the back but surprisingly no railway porn other than a London Underground sign from Liverpool St.
