Flamenco Tapas Bar in Calderdale

Assunta Connor Me and my husband usually attend the brilliant music night on Sunday's. Last night we arrived early with my sister as she had never been before. She was hungry as we had been out all day with her...(she is recovering from a serious illness). We went upstairs hoping we could have a meal as we hadn't booked. We got a nice table for the three of us. We ordered 3 different dishes with rice accompaniments but when mine and my sisters arrived the dishes were not recognisable as the descriptions of the dishes on the menu. I had scanned the menu carefully to find a meal that wasn't too spicy and chose the one described as "milder curry with mixed vegetables and pineapple and my sisters chosen dish contained bamboo shoots which she loves ....both dishes contained neither of the ingredients described. My curry was extremely hot and I tried to eat it with streaming eyes and burning lips. I had ordered steamed rice but sticky rice came which was clumped together and tough. The egg fried rice that my husband and sister ordered was fine and they gave me some of theirs. I was not charged for my rice. My husband ordered ribs and the large rib of the 3 he got was solid bone with hardly any meat on it. He enjoyed the other ribs on his plate. We must have come on the wrong night. The one waitress who was on her own was extremely busy with orders and bringing up drinks from bar downstairs. Felt sorry for her actually ! It was when we started to eat the meal we realised we hadn't got what we ordered. In retrospect I should have sent my dish back but struggled on with it with the help of the good egg fried rice from my husbands and sisters plate ! My sister quite enjoyed hers although it had no bamboo shoots in it but she finished it as she was extremely hungry. We went downstairs to enjoy the music as usual and my sister enjoyed her first musical experience there. She said she wouldn't eat upstairs again though but would be back again with us for the music !

Gone down hill, sadly. Rarely open, no food, no staff, no vibe. Hopefully, it will soon change hands again. Currently, it is seemingly shut down.

Hot when it arrived and was gorgeous food

Lovely small bar in the centre of Hebden Bridge. The woman serving was very pleasant and the pizzas (served by 'The People's Pizzeria') are very very good. (Note - you order drinks at the bar and food from the pizza window) The outside covered seating area is really nice, and some of the tables have heaters above. Nice clean toilet inside.
