Great beer garden for warmer days, and decent beers. Food was nice and fairly priced last time we came. We've found it to be a bit of a clicky locals pubs when drinking inside, but good for the warmer days.

The food is clearly microwaved as the “famous Ivy house pie” is hard beef and not a home made pie! However the beer is good and at a reasonable price

The Ivy has always been clicky place but the Sunday roast is worth the gauntlet of stares and perhaps book as its always busy with people not eating, so you can find a table. Staff are friendly, prices are very reasonable too. The carvery was being refreshed when we went for ours but it was worth waiting for and there is plenty of choice too.

Traditional pub with fantastic traditional grub, would be how I describe The Ivy House. Visited upon recommendation from a family friend for two birthdays. The food is banging!! The chips are the nicest I've tasted in decades! Everyone has left happy and full to the brim. Couldn't stomach dessert as the portions are very healthy. Would definitely recommend!

We rang to see if they did takeaway Sunday dinners, which they did. What an absolutely BEAUTIFUL dinner, they put each dinner in a large tin & gave us two regular cartons both full of gravy. This is the tastiest dinner I’ve had in a long time. They’re not shy either, 3 different meats, roast potatoes, mash potatoes, sprouts, carrot and swede mash, carrots, cabbage, cauliflower cheese, stuffing balls & Yorkshire puddings. I’m a big eater but definitely couldn’t finish it all I kept what I didn’t eat and warmed it up later, far too nice to be thrown away. The photo I’ve added doesn’t do it justice. There was loads more underneath.

Visited for a meal with friends. Tried to phone to book but nobody answered the phone. We went there on the off chance and they found us a table. 2 Ordered Steak pie, veg and chips. Pie was excellent, veg ok, chips had an oily aftertaste, they left them. 2 Ordered carvery, generous portions of turkey, gammon and beef. Veg ok, turkey a bit dry, the ham and beef was delicious. About 7pm they turned the music vol up so loud that we couldn't hear ourselves talk. No body came back to ask us whether we'd like dessert, Shame because waitress was very polite and efficient taking our initial order. This pub was rated in top 3 for carvery in Halifax. Does it deserve the high rating? No. 3 star at best, carvery meat and pie good, price reasonable, the rest including service a bit poor. You get what you pay for. However the beer/drinks were good.

The Pub is really nice, the drink quality was very good, and the bar/food service was very good/excellent. The food itself for me was fantastic Tandoori Chicken Skewers were cooked really well, the taste and presentation of my meal was fantastic the taste of the sprinkled paprika on the fries were excellent, salad excellent, yoghurt sauce excellent. only two minor niggles of this dish Sala Sauce I personally thought was not nice (usually my fav) put to one side as was spoiling the dish, the thickness of the naan too much, 2 small naans, or one thinner one preferred, but the Naan served was lovelly. The dish was excellent value for money.... I just want to point out that the two minor niggles are minor issues, one of the best pub meals I have ever had in a long time of this type. I would still give an overall rating of 4.8 out of 5.... I have still voted 5 stars in my review as next time I come I do hope the polite feedback of this dish is taken on board and again would reorder the same dish as everyone on our table commented on my dish and how fabulously it looked.... You cannot get a better compliment than everyone asking to try and saying it tasted lovely. THANK YOU TO VENUE AND ALL THE STAFF, THIS IS A GENUINE PAYING CUSTOMER (WELL MY PARTNER PAID), AND I WILL BE BACK AGAIN. PS: A shout out to Eleanor, she was very polite, professional and was serving clients with the utmost professionalism and politeness. Credit to the venue.

Queued up for 5 mins at bar as we booked a table for 4.30pm I asked a young waitress with long brown hair looked about 17/18 to say we booked table for 4.30pm her reply was DONT ASK ME ASK SOMEBODY AT THE BAR!! She was very rude! We all had a carvery and the carvery was very poor! Stuffing balls really hard the carrots was dry! Only got 1 slice of beef the mash was ok and the food was hot! I don’t think we will be returning just the way I was spoken to and wasn’t very inviting! I have been coming here for 15 years and this probably the worst experience to this day.

We popped in just before they finished serving food as we had to find alternative dining arrangements due to unforeseen circumstances. They were very friendly and accommodating as usual. I have used the Ivy House on and off for years. The food they do in unfussy pub grub, bit they do it extremely well. Their home cooked chips are amazing and their steak pie is outstanding, as is their Sunday carvery. On this occasion we all had burgers which were lovely. They don't try and reinvent the wheel here, just good, honest food at reasonable prices and also they give good portions. It is definitely one of my go to pubs for a meal. Always recommended.

I don't normally give reviews on pub meals but I visited The Ivy House on Saturday 26th June 2021 it is a lovely place and with a lovely garden, I had the steak pie chips and veg, the steak was shredder meat and quite try the whole meal was not very nice and the waitress took it and asked if she could tell the chef I said absolutely I was never approached again until we were going which was to.pay the bill, i paid £9.95 for a meal i never had which I think is despicable I am a pensioner that went home hungry and out of pocket.

Visited Bank Holiday Tuesday after a day out. Despite living in Halifax, neither of us had visited the Ivy House before - something to be rectified immediately, as the food was grand and the service was lovely. I should think the girls had probably been working flat out all day due to the holiday period and the good weather, but we were served speedily and very pleasantly. Nice one, ladies! I had terrific sea bass from the specials board, beautifully cooked. Really superb. Partner had scampi. Both meals were hot, well cooked and partner's chips were fab. The whole lot went down a treat, as did the excellent and decently-priced drinks. Having had a day out in the Dales (expensive places there!), this was very refreshing. Well done all round and we shall certainly be back. Cosy, comfy, nice clientele, good staff, what more can I say? Thank you Ivy House.

Myself and my friend visited this cafe today to be greeted by 2 young female staff members who made us feel not very welcome , We both ordered a full breakfast in a box after a 15 minute wait our food arrived which cost us both around £8.00 . Upon our return home we sat to enjoy our breakfast despite the awful service and then the experience only got worse the food was cold , very poor quality and more like a child's portion , All we got was 2 slices of bacon 2 sausages , beans , tomatoes , 1 egg and 2 slices of toast all of which was probably the worst we have ever seen .
