U shaped bar and restaurant as said below very handy for the station. Furnished in café style with the servery front and centre, casual drinkers are generally welcome. Two handpulls both with local Saltaire beers, blonde and a dreaded Christmas special. Quality middling to good. Probably once two shops it’s now one large room, mostly low tables but there are high ones with stools in one front window. Fairly refined plain decor with a few tasteful print’s and pictures. As no one else has explained the joke in the name I will, Titus Salt the builder and benefactor of Saltaire (it’s on the River Aire), was a strict teetotaller from religious conviction hence no alcohol was allowed in the village in his day.

A café bar style place near the station. Very nicely decorated with comfy seating it's all one room, but there are 2 areas to the left and right. There's a high table near the entrance which is where I sat. Lots of B & W pictures on the walls along with a couple of huge mirrors. Very friendly bar staff serving 2 hand pulled ales from Saltaire brewery. It's all very pleasant and Ms CAMRA would love it.

Can totally concur with Alans final comment below because I did. When walking around Saltaire the day before we spotted this one (primarily because of the name with its witty historical reference) and as this type of trendy bar better fits my better half’s view of an alcohol providing establishment to eat in we decided to give it a try when we were back in Saltaire the following evening.
Being a Friday evening the front section of the bar was quite lively and as I believe only the downstairs dining space was in use, we were seated to the right behind the bar which was far enough away from the conversation at the front to be comfortable.
As a restaurant it met the brief with very good efficient and friendly service levels from the young waitresses working the tables and a decent enough evening tapas menu with a kind of Yorkshire bent (lamb chops, black pudding, that sort of thing) .
And as a bar it worked as well having a decent wine and gin offering for the ladies and enough beer offerings including two local ales from the in town Saltaire Brewery with Saltaire Blonde and Saltaire Black, both of which were kept OK.
In fact the wife was enamoured enough with the choice to then allow an after dinner drink in the nearby Fanny’s Ale and Cider house, so results all round..
