Visited on a Thursday afternoon in July. Two of three hand pulls in active service at the time, offering Five Points XPA and Ossett Trip Hop #6, the latter sampled and confirmed to be decent, setting me back £2.15 for a half. 10 keg taps on the back wall with a big chalk board listing them, including ciders. Lilley's cider was also advertised, presumably bag-in-a-box.
As noted in previous reviews, this occupies a spot in the corner of the market but does have its own walls and isn't open like some beer-place-in-food-hall type places. Inside there are four or so tables plus an outdoor area under the cover of the market hall canopy; this section had another couple of tables. Music was playing at a sensible volume.
I didn't really take to the place and was pleased to sup up and leave. That said, the cask ale I had was on good form and there are plenty of craft options even if the cask is limited. Glad I tried it, but just can't see myself rushing back.

A small, even for a micro, micro on a corner of the indoor market with a door on the outside. Square with one wooden wall, two large windows and the woody servery forming the sides, two hand pulls with a Wishbone on one, a Nightjar on the other, there are 10 keg taps on the back wall. A number of clips suggest, Ossett, Saltaire, Anarchy and North Riding are also popular here. Tall seating and tables, good micro pub staff and atmosphere. There is also an outside drinking area with old casks as tables and a few more on the pavement.

In the covered market. There are 3 handpulls but only 2 were on on my visit. As noted it is owned by the Guild Hall Ale House. I didn't mind it in here and would happily call in again.
