Cafe bar from the 'industrial period' - rough brickwork, scaffold planks and overhead trunking - with a yard out the back and a couple of pavement tables at the front. Inside there is a seated area in each corner and a section of stools in the middle; also an upstairs (not open). The background music gave a laid-back feel. As described earlier, there is a stand of keg taps which included some fair craft from Verdant, Northern Brewing, Yonder, etc. Note that the craft beers are only dispensed in 2/3rds pint schooners - prices upper end but not disproportionate from similar brews elsewhere.

Not sure the review from Lester Ford below is about this pub as to my knowledge they have never served cask ale. They certainly weren't doing on our Sunday visit. It 's a pleasant little place and two floors, but the upstairs area is closed on a Sunday. There's a tiny little outside area at the rear, but as it was lashing it down this wasn't being used. No cask ale, but my craft keg was pleasant enough if somewhat cold and, as noted below king expensive.

A review from the end of November 2016 during a Friday night visit. Cracking little bar with an upbeat trendy crowd & bar staff to match!

4 ales, 1 cider and 2 top quality European lagers / fruit beers on tap. My pint of Allendale’s Pennine Pale Ale @ 4.0% was excellent.

The wife and I were on our way to the Brew York tap room but the lure of this bar was too great to pass , so we stopped for a quick drink, chatted, chilled and listened to the quality music being played by the bar staff.

Very busy at 8pm on a Friday night and definitely worth another visit.
