A music venue across the canal. There is a nice cosy bar, with a good covered patio outside and a big hall at the back for the bands. I don't know what it is like when they are performing but earlier on it is very pleasant and friendly. Three handpumps had Goose Eye Pommies Revenge, Ossett Butterley and White Rat, condition fine. I would be happy to return.

It’s had a big makeover, the counter has been turned through 90 degress, there’s an extra space at the back and the decor has completely changed, being darker and more intimate. Two pulls with Tetleys on one and a mediocre Goose Eye Bitter on the other. Still nowhere near as good as the Boathouse Bar across the canal.

Yet another micro in Skipton that doesn't open when it says it does. This is getting a bit annoying now. Supposed to open at 5 on a Thursday. In darkness at 9 and a closed sign right next to the opening times stating it should be open. Pathetic.
