They actually read my previous review about inappropriate and very loud music and did something about it. We have visited the pub several times since that review in January and every time it has been a pleasure. With the music volume now being set to a sensible background level and even genres which aren’t heavy metal, everyone can hear themselves talk and it is now a place to go to enjoy good beer, good ambience and good pizzas. 10/10

Went for a brew tour and a couple of "quality control" pints . Very good tour the guide was excellent and his knowledge was encyclopaedic. The beer as always was top notch Didn't have anything to eat but what I saw looked very nice

Charlie Chalk comes to Ossett. Combination of 50 kids running wild, a frightened pet leaving a trail of crap, a so called manager with a focus on loud heavy metal music rather than his patrons. All makes for a busy Friday night. What could possibly go wrong (or did). Dom (or dumb) our illustrious manager’s days are surely numbered.

This is our local, we visit occasionally and have always enjoyed it. We went last Sunday after the recent extensive refurbishment, we had a few beers and pizza. Wow, it's stunning. They have modernised it and retained a lot of its original features and charm. We will definitely be visiting more often. We had no idea what the Brewery would do but they got it bang on. Well done . Dog friendly too 🙂

The refurbishment in late 2024 is just fantastic. Ossett Brewery have retained the true character of this wonderful pub whilst updating it to an exceptionally high standards. The bare area is great as are the seating areas and the pizza and food menu is second to none. We’ve been there several times and love it. Many others do too as it is always really busy. Dominic and his team are extremely helpful and attentive. Well done to all and we will be back soon. Keep the open fires burning. PS the beer is beautiful. I suppose it should be being a spit away from the brewery but having that many beers on at once takes some up keep. Credit Dominic and team. Good value too. Credit Ossett Brewery for not being greedy.

After a major refurbishment, I think the Brewer's looks better than ever. The bar has moved to the left hand side opening up both front rooms, the back room is now more integrated and the outdoor space enlarged. There is a pizza place at the back which I've yet to try but the place feels like it always has and the refurb hasn't diminished its local pub feel. Excellent job.

Great pub. A bit spit and sawdust but still a grand boozer. The Ossett brewery beers are very well kept. I suppose they should be given they are brewed next door. Dominic is a great host and his staff are too. There are many regulars that keep the pub busy all week long. There is an old boy (Malcolm) who goes in every day. He sits in the now named Malcolm’s corner pronouncing his wisdom to anyone that will listen. Dogs welcome. Great when owners keep them under control. The real fires in winter create a fantastic atmosphere. All in all a wonderful pub enjoyed by so many folks. Keep up the great work Dominic and team.

Great pub, good music. Nice staff. Dog friendly but don’t expect dogs to be on a lead. It seems I’m in the wrong for expecting dogs to be kept on a lead. Just because you think your dog is friendly you don’t know how they will behave with every other dog. Regulars don’t seem to think they need to keep control of their dog.

Terrible service and SOME staff simply do not care, I was waiting 30mins between drinks. Customers were getting up and walking off. Apparently the Kings had been hit with covid and had a function on so staff were sent there. Great so the pub that has got quieter due to people not returning it is getting even worse. At one point a girl came out with drinks then went back inside for the card machine and then we tried to order and she said oh I will go get my pen and pad. That's 3 trips when 1 was needed, she never returned! Another person said its not my fault I am just filling in form Fernandes, she got the order wrong 3 times and it was only 2 drinks. One of the party ordered on the app and had to go inside to see why a 25min delay, the ticket was there on the bar in full view but no drinks ready. There was no management that we saw and there was only 7 tables outside occupied with 4 staff looking after them. If I make the effort to return after several bad experiences then I think they should make the effort and serve me. The Tap and 42 do a cracking job on less staff but there is built in apathy at the Brewers. They did nothing to clean the place and brighten it up during lockdown that coupled with constant poor service means people who have been regulars 3 to 4 times a week for 15 + years are not going there anymore. Its nickname amongst these people is the Sh1t H5le for obvious reasons. Ossett brewery get a grip pls. On a foot note about 8pm a guy with long hair and boots came out and did his very best to put things right, he had some omph about him and went around every table, well done that man, thank you very much. If one can do it why cant the others?

We visited Sunday 9th March for lunch. We were shown to our table (booked for 2.30pm) and it took a while for someone to take our order although the waiting staff kept asking if we wanted more drinks. The pork dinner the 3 of us opted for was delicious, hot and really tasty, however the service was so very slow and given its not an extensive menu I didn't quite understand why that would be the case. We had an escape room booked for 5pm and didn't feel we had time to order a dessert. Due to this we won't be visiting again anytime soon. A shame really, as the food was very good. Just need to up the service, oh and clean the carpet that leads to the toilets.
