Calan's, Hebden Bridge Town Centre, Hebden Bridge

Rob Hunter left this review about Calan's

This micropub is definitely micro! Very busy on Saturday evening and we managed to shuffle our way through the punters to the bar to see what was available. Five hand pulls at the bar offering two by Squawk, one by Thirst Class, North Riding Ice Cream Porter and Calan's Pale Ale (I think this may have been brewed by Elland). There were also two real ciders available, dispensed from the back wall. There is a glass window behind the bar which allows you to see the beer barrels and box ciders behind, if you like that kind of thing.

We retreated to the outside space with our drinks, unfortunately due to the rain most of the outdoor seating was soaking wet but there was a small under cover area where we managed to find some dry furniture to sit on. I enjoyed my Ice Cream Porter and it's a nice place, obviously very popular. Perhaps best experienced at a quieter time but that said, it wouldn't take many customers to fill the inside space.

Presumably it has now changed hands since the earlier review by Real Ale Ray, but it certainly doesn't appear to have suffered as a result.
