Will Larter left this review about The Old Queens Head

This very old building looks great against the background of modern office blocks that will almost certainly be gone long before this one is. The 15th century part is quite small, the bulk of the building being 19th or early 20th, with an even more modern extension for the entrance and the toilets. Just Thwaites beers on at the time of my recent visit - I'm not sure they serve guest beers any more. My half of their "English IPA" was in very good condition (NBSS 3.5 but without feeling like drinking it again any time soon) and a pretty decent £4.30/pint.

This building dates from 1475 and has three ghosts, one of which is a dog. Located around the back of the bus station and I think it's worth a visit, especially to marvel at the dining room and the beer quality was very good. Four beers from Thwaites and two guest beers on our visit. The two guest on this occasion were Ossett Silver King and Yorkshire Blonde.

I won’t linger on a description of this venerable old building, well the outside is, inside is rather modernised in various styles. There seems to be a later extension to the rear and one side and a smaller timbered older bit which is the oft photographed part. The counter is in the main bar in the newer bit with six pulls, four beers from operators Thwaites, one of those reversed and Ossett Blonde, the last pump handle was blank. There are also three triple T-bars of normal stuff. A pump clip collection by the counter hints at a better choice on occasions. It’s very lounge bar in atmosphere due to, I think, the carpet and furnishings, the older part is nicer but looks purely for dining. I’m not a fan of Thwaites beers but the beer was adequate.
