Parking on a busy main road. Full house on a Friday night! Lively atmosphere (very noisy!), lots of groups dining. Staff were all excellent, really attentive and efficient. Food was fantastic, superior quality dining in a stylish, comfortable pub dining room. My chicken, ham and leek pie with chips (special) was exceptionally good, I virtually licked the plate clean! Fish and chips looked lovely too. The dessert menu provided some classy choices. Prices reflected the quality. We had a great evening. Can’t fault it!

Boxing Day 2024 lunch at 3 pm for 10 of us plus our Dog. What can we say - fabulous sums our whole experience up. The Waitress who took our order got everything absolutely perfect, mash potatoes with 1 of the steaks - the medium cooked 1 not the medium rare 1. The peppercorn sauce came with the correct steak too. The meals for the children all came at the time we requested them, with the adult Starters not with the adult Mains. The Grassington Duck was delicious, as was the Belly Pork too plus the Turkey Dinner had all the trimmings. The vegetables were plentiful and served individually in their own pots enabling us to put as much or as little on our plates are we wanted. The staff - brilliant service from all, what a Team effort, thank you. We'll definately be back. Thank you once again.

This was our second ‘family’ visit to this highly popular gastro pub based in Honley, near Holmfirth. We’d booked for four people but when five of us turned up, they very easily found a table big enough for us without any fuss. The drinks order was taken and delivered very promptly. The cask bitter from Wainwrights brewery was excellent and was the wine, gin and diet cokes! We orders pink sirloin of beef x 3, a venison and a pork…. All with Yorkshire puddings and vegetables with gravy. All came out quickly and piping hot. We had cheese cake for desert. All the food and service was excellent. The price was very reasonable too. We shall return. This place is highly recommended and hugely popular with a great atmosphere and great friendly staff! 😉👍

The Jacobs is our “go to” place to eat. The food is reliably good and the staff are great! I only once had a problem with some venison and, when asked if everything was ok I mentioned that it was a bit chewy. The staff apologised profusely and the chef insisted that I had a fresh dinner. You can’t say fairer than that. We always eat too much because it’s all so tempting.

The staff are wonderfully polite, welcoming, and friendly, making you feel instantly at ease. Now, onto the food—absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Each dish is a testament to classic British fare done right, from hearty pies to perfectly cooked roasts. The attention to detail in the presentation elevates the dining experience. For a quintessentially British pub experience with exceptional food and hospitality, look no further. This is a delightful retreat in every sense

My friend and I had enjoyed a bracing walk around nearby Honley Wood so this ideally situated pub on the main Huddersfield to Holmfirth road was convenient for a healthy and hearty meal and that is what happened. The menu is varied and should surely suit all appetites and palates. I enjoyed a fish sandwich with a choice of white or granary bread and it was accompanied by a delicious side salad. My friend had the steak and ale pie that looked and I'm tasted ideal. All in all, an enjoyable dining experience though I must mention that it is dog friendly. I am not a dog lover but the policy is clearly advertised outside the premises so I had a choice but I'm so glad I took the plunge while I have to mention the staff who were courteous and attentive throughout.

This is the 3rd time I have visited this establishment. The first time there was a draught from a door at the end of her room. Hence we ate our meal feeling cold. The second time the waitress was positive rude, asking us, even before we had sat down, what drinking we would like. Our third visit today ( not my choice of eaterie) was with friends. Again we were asked before we had even sat down what drinks we wanted. Is it not reasonable to actually take one's coat off and sit down before being approached by the waiting staff?Unfortunately this was not the only issue we had. Two of us ordered the turkey dinner. The vegetables were fine but the turkey was not a fresh or even one. It was processed turkey meat which didn't even vague resemble turkey and frankly didn't really taste like it. Is it unreasonable of my friend and I to expect real turkey meat when ordering a turkey dinner?. I doubt very much if I will ever eat here again.
