Shoulder of Mutton, Hebden Bridgeback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Looks inviting from the outside but inside it has 'nowt about it. Disappointingly characterless in such a characterful town. Sparse inside, with a couple of leather sofa' s (might need a hoist to get some of the more ample customers up from these). The ubiquitous John Smith's was very well kept.

Change of management from my last visit , surprise surprise, Enterprise forced em out!
Three beers on my visit, including Theakstons XB. A real empty soulless place inside, with the odd settee and high chair table and loudish mucsic, it doesnt know what it wants to be. Could make it homely , put some bench seating in , small tables, shackleton chairs and frilly lamps, make it cool and give it a bit of credibility.
Good for sitting in the square.

Shame this pub could be fantastic - its the best pub to sit outside and ponder town with over a pint - apparently its been refurbished recently - honestly if thats a refurbishment...its just a plain crappy boozer inside with zero personality. Beer is fine, staff are fine, biker evening is Tuesday so come or steer clear as necessary.

Had four ales on when we visited a couple of hours before it got flooded - staff on the ball - beer quality acceptable

Decent pub with good selection of ales. All well kept. Had a young duo singing and playing guitar the day I was in, they were very good, but as it was the day after the blues festival had finished, I guess the locals had had their fill of music so they were largely ignored. Bar staff seemed friendly. All in all, worth a visit.

Reasonable pub , a decent homemade meat n taty pie. Abbeydale absolution and Westons Old Rosie make for a fun time. Unfortunately it is an Enterprise Inn, so all the profits will go into their greedy hands, while they squeeze the tenant to bursting point..

Rambling and friendly pub near the centre of Hebden, with a reasonable range of real ales.
