The original Grayston Unity bar was located near Halifax Town Hall and made an appearance in the 2023 Good Beer Guide. It closed down almost a year ago and was replaced by this larger version on Horton Street.

It's not immediately obvious from the outside that you have found the correct premises, but we soon established we had indeed discovered the Grayston Unity. On entry, it didn't look too big. However, there is apparently a large space for gigs and events downstairs and there was further seating on a third level upstairs.

It seemed quiet inside on first entry, with me leading a group of 12 of us in. I apologised to the barman about our large (and potentially noisy) group, but he was just happy to have the trade.

There are both cask and keg beers here, along with 3 boxes of cider at the end of the bar. All are listed on the opposite wall. Regular cask beers are Saltaire South Island & Goose Eye Chinook Blonde. Guests were Rooster's One Horse Town, Wishbone Abyss & Small World Port Nelson. Ciders were Pulp Damson Craft Cider & Saxby's Traditional & Plum Ciders. On the craft side, there was Brennan's Irish Stout, Cloudwater Fresh & Fuzzy, Thornbridge Thirty-Five & Vault City Iron Brew.

I quite liked this place. Whilst it was quiet when we entered, I think our group helped to pick the atmosphere up a little and I'd imagine it's a bustling place when there is an event on.

An interesting slightly quirky affair, the pub was friendly and welcoming with five cask beers on offer, my choice of Parkway Norwegian Blue was far from my favorite of the day but the quality was good. The keg offerings were mid-range on my interest level but stuck with the cask.

Situated in a Victorian former court building, the name is taken from a founder’s mother’s maiden name, whose family owned a brewery in Keighley and a number of pubs, including the Turkey Inn at Goose Eye; the Meandering Bear is a sister bar.
With Gaia creative writing courses and yoga, folk, jazz, slam poetry and open mic nights, this is an all-singing, all-dancing virtuous creative community venue.
My Titanic Iceberg was very nice.
