The Beehive Inn in Calderdale

Had a takeaway Sunday lunch. Fantastic value and huge portions. It was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend it and will definitely be doing it again...try the pigs in blankets, you won't be disappointed

Had Sunday lunch delivered from the Beehive! It was gorgeous, so much meat, array of veggies, plus cauliflower cheese, mash and roasties. Along side a good Yorkshire pudding, plenty of gravy. It was delicious, and arrived hot. Have recommended already and will be ordering again. Excellent value for money!

Absolutely beautiful pub, the setting inside is so cosy and lovely! Ordered a curry and set of starters to takeaway and they were absolutely delicious, 10/10 taste sensation! Will definitely be returning to try more items on the menu!

A lovely cosy pub, with lovely staff and a great atmosphere. We went in with our dog, who was made very welcome and enjoyed a few lovely afternoons here whilst on holiday. Thank you for making us so welcome.

Lovely mixed grill . Great portions

We had such a wonderful family meal celebrating my mum-in-laws birthday. There were 14 of us, it was a busy Sunday and we were treated so well by the lovely staff. The food was delicious, the ambiance was wonderful and the service was attentive. We will definitely be back.

I’d highly recommended the Beehive to anybody thinking of visiting. We went on a Thursday evening and were very happy with the food and service. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The environment on a Thursday night was lovely, busy with families and couples. My husband had the BIG burger which he said was amazing and he finished the lot (proudly holding the title of being the first person to do so) We will definitely be returning!

I had a Sunday lunch delivered it was lovely plenty of everything was still hot when arrived will definitely be ordering again .

The best place for a fresh roast dinner in Halifax! Lovely friendly and family astomosphere, all of the staff members are really helpful. Lovely clean and tidy environmeont and I love the cosy countrt decor. Fairly priced and absolutely delicious with big portion sizes too. Highly recommend

A very nice pub , good food and beer, reasonable prices, good service and staff My only negative was it’s was cold , no heating on , I think if that a little bit of warm to take the chill out would have been nice

Really nice place and the food was absolutely spot on everything cooked from scratch

We went to The Beehive for Sunday Lunch. Would highly recommend...the food was delicious and all the staff were lovely and friendly. We will definitely be coming back !

Just been to the Beehive for Sunday lunch with the family AND the pup!🐶 Food was absolutely DELICIOUS, we all chose the beef roast dinner and loved every mouthful. So filling even the kids couldn’t fit in dessert! 😂 The staff are extremely pleasant and welcoming. To top it off our little doggy was also treated to a pup-cup ice cream 🤩 Highly recommend any family to nip on.

Revisited this pub after calling in for a drink a few months ago. The new owner Steve is very friendly and loves kids and dogs to visit his new venture. Menu choices are varied, we had the Tandoori chicken on a flatbread with homemade chips and tzatziki and coriander dip, also something I've not seen on any menu before Steak and Oxtail pie, creamy mash, broccoli and mange tout, with a jug of gravy.Both dishes were excellent, the pie is amazing, also separate Tapas menu which seemed very popular with other diners, something we will have to try next time. However we had to wait over 50 mins for our food, and I had to chase it up when I went to the bar for more drinks, when the food arrived it was a bit cold , probably been waiting for the food servers to bring out, as the gravy had a skin on Perhaps you could get more staff Steve at busy times (weekends) but it did not spoil the evening we will return to review your Tapas menu, recommend booking at weekends, got very busy, 2 car parks, lovely pub

First time visiting the Beehive and we had such a lovely meal sat outside in the sun! The staff were really friendly & welcoming, plenty of seating inside and out. We couldn’t find any faults with the food, the food was delicious, my partner even said the homemade N’duja Lasagne was one of the best he’s had, the prawn cocktail starter was also very nice. Good portion sizes and we wasn’t waiting ages for the food to come out. We can’t wait to visit again to try the rest of the menu!

the staff make this pub what it is!!! I'm new to the area with my son. and we found this gem 2 weeks ago. well, we are now regulars there for food and drinks. the bar staff, owner, and his wife, their kids are all lovely. A large beer garden with some bits for the kids to climb all over and a kid friendly approach is refreshing. kids can run around and have fun. The food is amazing. best burger I've ever had !!! Love this pub and it's staff !!!!!

Huge portions, attentive service! Don't order the mixed grill unless you are really (really) hungry! Good hand pulled beer.

I had the oxe cheek rague and I must say it was the best I have ever had . Staff were absolutely perfect so attentive could not do enough for us . We cannot wait too come again Keep up the good work

Absolutely cracking atmosphere and food. The Tapas is very good and tasty would highly recommend the food. You feel so very welcome when you walk through the door.

The best Sunday lunch I've had in a long time. The other food coming out of the kitchen looked amazing too. Highly recommended 👌

Good service and food, would recommend the mix grill 👍 Dog friendly and very welcoming.

We had been for a walk and decided to call in the Beehive for a refreshing drink before our return walk. Whilst there I requested a look at the menu for future ref. It looked so good we decided to eat there and then. We chose the Tapas menu It was Delicious and great value We had Black pudding & blue cheese balls 😋 chilli prawns 😋 Brisket on chip's & gravy 👌 and samosas with a chilli dip. All for £20. The staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for you.

Been loads of times . This young(‘ish) couple have taken over lately .i have to compliment them . Very friendly ,accommodating to any slight deviations to menu .i had the ribeye steak with -wait for it a full rack of vine tomatoes! I was brought up with tomatoes -and bread and butter !!.but seriously it has to be the best English restaurant locally . And we’ve done them all . Going again soon You won’t be disappointed I’m sure ,one last thing they keep 2 disabled parking spots and we need 1 .FDM

Everything was excellent - food, service and atmosphere. The weather was unseasonably cold for July so being greeted by an open fire and warm radiators was great!

Thank you for a lovely meal today for my mother in laws birthday- thank you

Great service...lovely food. Give it a try👍

Great food and reasonably priced. First time since new owners and will definitely be back

Busy night when we went a party of 6. We all had different mains and all enjoyed the food. There were no deserts listed in the menu and we weren't asked if we wanted dessert which was the only drawback on the evening

Been here a few times.. but not recently. Decided to Pop in for Sunday dinner - ordered the Roast beef & didn’t disappoint. It was really lovely. Lots of tender beef, mash, roasties, veg & lovely gravy. Homemade yorkie puds too. Would highly recommend. Staff lovely too & made to feel very welcome. Will definitely be returning

Lovely pub and staff but pricey. Nearly £50 for two Sunday lunches, no pudding and a soft drink each. £2 supplement for an extra Yorkshire pudding.

Wow, what a lovely place, the staff were brilliant, nothing too much trouble, very friendly. The food was lovely, hot , and plenty of it 😁

We recently visited the Beehive since its been under new management. It was a Sunday afternoon and I must say the meal was gorgeous. The staff were lovely too. We will definitely be going back.

Unfortunately didn't have best of experiences. Chicken Diane was blandest meal I have ever eaten. Sauce was just cream and mushroom with no seasoning whatsoever. 2 of us that ordered it emptied table salt and pepper pots into it to try and make it taste of something but really was not great. Maybe chef forgot some steps along the way. Chicken liver pate had 2cm thick fat on top of it. More than there was of the pate. We ordered drinks and but had to chase them number of times, the starters were eaten without a drink. The pub is lovely, it was busy so I imagine the service issue was down to that and a very young girl serving us, maybe she was quite new. Rest of our group were disapointed with size of their puddings and overall service. None of us would want to return unless there was massive improvements.

I’m sorry to say I was disappointed with our visit, having been really looking forward to the beehive under new management. We had left it a few months to let the new team settle in. Sadly a few things stuck out, we were left standing at the bar for ages with no warm welcome, we ordered a Sunday roast and it was unfortunately edible but not enjoyable (bland meats, overcooked and dry, soggy roast potatoes, plain veg, mozerella on the cauliflower cheese, sad sausages in blankets). All in all felt like it really lacked care and quality. Lastly, and the weirdest thing… We asked for a glass of wine and were told “no wine list” so we just said yes to a Marlborough Sauv (which was nice) and paid over £25 without being informed until the bill arrived. Just really strange... £75 later we felt disappointed that we had visited. We are local so may try again in the future but we would need convincing that others had enjoyed a meal here, I’m sorry to say.

Local pub has new managers. Popped in bank holiday and unfortunately was very quiet. However...service was excellent, it was clean didn't have any food but will definitely be back again to try. Will be fantastic in better weather with the beer garden and the views...Great traditional pub with large parking area. 😀

Perfect 👌 in all areas . Excellent food great selection of ales and drinks . Very attentive new owners always willing to go the extra mile .

We are back again and can i just say the staff are so friendly they are so nice. And the lovely pub has a great atmosphere with good food we will be back soon 5 stars guy's 👍👍

Excellent food, friendly staff nice ambience

Great food fantastic staff excellent beer and superb atmosphere 👌 Perfection in every way ❤️

Fantastic food 😋. Polite and courteous staff ❤️. Very warm and welcoming xx

First time in the beehive and it was great. The food was lovely and the staff are very friendly top job guys we will be back for sure 5 stars 👍

Wow, I have a lot to say about the beehive pub Inn. First of all, the welcome from the new owners, friendly, polite, and extremely welcoming. Secondly the food is Michelin star quality. Absolutely outstanding flavour, well presented hot and most of all the quality, this food has been made with love. And third, my dog was welcome too, a nice little area within the pub that is pet friendly where we could relax and enjoy a nice cold pint before we set back off on our walk. Good luck in your new venture and we will definitely be returning again soon.

The new owners are a credit to this place . It's has been full everyday we've been since they've took over . The new decor is outstanding and the food is absolutely sensational . If you have a dog there are designated areas next to the open fire for you that's if you can get a seat as it does get full very quickly , they also bring the meaty ends of the meat out for the dogs . The reastraunt seems to be fully booked most days and the professional manner In what the new land lady conducts herself is second to none . I was there when an elderly gentleman wasn't very happy about been asked to use the dog friendly area he mentioned that pub concentrate on food customers and no wonder the pub didn't have locals . Well I'm a local and every other customer you saw in the bar dog friendly area are locals so I think your slightly mistaken sir these new owners have turned this gem of a pub around . You spat your dummy out because you couldn't do as you wished .

New management very good. Good atmosphere, beer on form, clean pub and very pleasant staff.

No wonder pubs are closing every day of the week !!!! Went into the Beehive for a quick drink after walking our small Jack Russel dog today. I have never taken our dog in here before, but the sign outside says "dog friendly" The Pub was fairly busy, but there were about 3 or 4 tables free, so we sat down, but made mention that we were happy to move if someone needed the table for food as other tables were free. All the bar stools for casual drinkers have gradually been removed over the years, and we did not fancy standing up when there was so much free space to sit down available. Halfway through our drinks one of the young servers mentioned could we please move off the table. I responded no problem, when you need it w will happily vacate, but with 4 tables free and nowhere else to sit, we stayed put. 3 minuets later another waitress, said sorry no dogs here you will have to move (even though the table next to us ordering food had a dog) Basically if your ordering food, they love you, casual drinkers are not welcome to come in and sit at a table (no reserved signs) We used to eat here about once a fortnight for years and must have spent thousands over time. We don't come as often now I'm retired, but was here for food three weeks ago. They need to reflect that busy on a Sunday with food, but empty during the week, does not keep the place running. Please note I WILL NEVER COME HERE AGAIN. Lots of other "no jobsworth" run pubs available locally.

We came here the week the new owners have taken over for a family meal. We had an excellent meal, my partner had the beef baguette, my son the chicken nuggets and I had the beehive burger. Really delicious and fresh, could not fault it. The staff were super friendly and hospitable. We will definitely be back for another meal. Our new favourite spot!

Highly recommend this pub, nice food and beer

Love this place. Always forget about it but food and service was Devine! Nice fire lit and dog friendly. Thank you!

Excellent venue good local inn

My ratings are based on my meal. My partner had the burger and wasn't impressed at it's densely dry consistency and thought the bacon on top tasted a little weird. He's a trained chef and thinks burgers should be succulently tender. I had the prawn and salmon salad which was lovely, it had plenty of ingredients and was very filling. Our friend had the lasagne which she said was very tasty. The wine was a good quality and wasn't overly priced.

Good quality pub food in a great country setting

Great food and great service. Will definitely be coming again.

Read some reviews that talk about this place doing the best Sunday dinner they’ve ever had so we booked in. Honestly the most underwhelming roast I’ve ever had - the meat was bordering on being grey (turkey for me and beef for my partner), Yorkshire puddings were tough as boot leather, and the veg selection and portion size were disappointing too. It really gave the vibes of the dinners my Nan used to get served in the care home🥲 £40 for 2 dinners and 2 drinks really didn’t feel worth it when no one came back to ask if everything was okay either. Such a shame as the pub grub that was coming out looked good, and the location and pub its self has potential to be lovely. Won’t be retuning.

Always lovely food and friendly staff

A bit of a let down today. Visited before and couldn't fault the place at all. Visited today and the experience was't the same sadly. It's a lovely pub, the staff are friendly and the menu choices are great. Today the food was a slight let down as well as the service. The pie special I had could not be faulted but the veggie lasagne was bone dry so i thought I'd mention it to the waitress just incase the kitchen needed to know. She did exactly that and no issues there, and we understand sometimes these things happen. We just felt a bit let down by the service thereafter. We just felt a little bit forgotten. We didn't get our menus for a good ten mins to start with, had to wait a fair while for things like ketchup, no one came to take payment for the food (maybe this is at the bar only, not sure)... it just felt a bit 'off'. If i'm in the area i'll visit again and hopefully it was a one off.. it was a busy Bank Holiday Sunday afterall.

A charming country pub run by some down-to-earth warm people. Sunday lunch was a pleasure so we'll be making this a regular haunt for our eating days out. Thanks a Million.

Lovely country pub, dog and child friendly! Food very good indeed.

Steak ciabatta was nice and good value. Home made chips tasted oily and texture as if cooked in cold oil.

Great quality food with efficient service and beautiful surroundings.

After a day in Manchester we decided to drive back the scenic route and try find an independent quality pub for food. We were super lucky to find the Beehive, it’s a beautiful pub in a stunning peaceful rural location, proper homemade food and big portions… my mum would get small adults roast dinner next time. I got the veggie roast dinner and all the Sunday trimmings. The staff were friendly and just good all round people who made us feel super welcome. Such a treat to find such a gem

A recent visit here for midweek tea . Lots of good reviews and so we looked forward to trying this pub. Ample parking and a dog friendly pub, which was a bonus. Wheelchair access would be possible. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Sadly the atmosphere was somewhat flat due to lack of people in the pub. A variety of foods to choose from on the menu suitable for both meat eaters and vegetarians. We ordered 3 bean burger and vegetable lasagne. Both came with approx 8 large cut chips and a small portion of salad. The bun of the burger was big. 5he burger had a somewhat average taste. The lasagne base tasted strongly of tomatoes and nothing else. Chips were average tasting too and on the soggy side. I would definitely recommend ordering a 2 or 3 course meal if having the lasagne as main as this meal alone was not filling. The lasagne portion was much smaller than I have experienced anywhere else. Perhaps at the weekend the atmosphere is more vibrant. Reasonably priced with a large amount of alcoholic choices. Overall not a bad place perhaps just an off day in the kitchen? On a positive note, service was good and fast.

First time visiting and we will definitely be back. Lovely homemade food and friendly staff.

Always a lovely warm welcome and atmosphere. Highly recommend

Great food & service at this lovely country pub. Never had a poor meal or had experience here. Well worth a visit.

Friendly atmosphere. Very enthusiastic to have dogs in, including their own doggy menu! (We didn't have one) We had 3 x fish and chips really good portions and 1 x sea bass not so good portion ( we had to give up some of our food which wasn't a problem to ensure they felt fed) I understand it's a more expensive fish but maybe some more vegetables could get onto the plate?

Very good pub food is alway on point especially the fish and chips, Julie always does a brillaint job at serving us and making us feel welcome!

Arrived soaking wet after venturing out in "sunshine and showers" that turned out to be something more! The very friendly staff actually took away several of our party's coats and dried them in their tumble drier. While this was going on we had an excellent meal and a few drinks: real pie with a nice thick shortcrust (not just a flaky lid...), homemade tomato soup with loads of flavour, huge fish and chips (no skins; I don't like skins...). The service was spot on in terms of timing and also the young waitress's ability to remember without writing anything down! Ripponden has so many great pubs to choose from; it's an incentive to find lots of ways to walk up there or around there, so that's what I do....

The Beehive is an excellent friendly locals pub serving real ales, I had the Yorkshire Blonde which was a very enjoyable beer. The food menu is superb & I had the homemade pie of the day & my wife had bangers & mash, both were superb & definitely homemade. There's even a dog food menu in this dog friendly pub. The service both for drinks & food was very very good & the friendly staff deserve a big mention considering they were so buy. We'll definitely be back at the Beehive next time we're in the area.

We booked table at the Beehive on Easter weekend as we had a holiday cottage nearby. This is a proper local pub serving great food at reasonable prices. I loved that it was dog friendly and had a buzzy relaxed atmosphere. I had an amazing tasty vegetarian and gluten free lasagne, best I’ve ever had, with a generous portion of chips and a salad. Everyone was really happy with their meal and we had a nice chat with the owner after. Will definitively go back if we have a chance.

We went to this pub while away for the night with just myself, my partner and our two dogs. The bar lake was friendly and very accepting of every dog and person in the pub. Great pub with a great selection of dog friendly treats - including a full menu just for the dogs! There’s two areas to this pub, one dog friendly and one not. Great for anyone to go to with a dog or not there’s space for everyone. Would definitely return although the walk up the hill from town below is a big and steep walk and honestly not the easiest hill to walk so if you find you struggle with hills I would definitely drive up! But once your up there, there is some gorgeous views. Other than that it was great. Would definitely return.

When one decides its minted lamb Henry then the rest have to follow. It was delicious. 12 months since we last visited but the food standard and service here remains a big draw. These people are lovely grafters and it's delivered on hot plates. Drinks? Of course as this is a great traditional well kept pub. Open fire on the day and family made a perfect afternoon. Consistently high standards here.

Lovely old Inn. Great atmosphere. Really delicious food. Good service.

Old favourite. Great Sunday Roast. Nice real ales

I and several friends booked for Sunday lunch. The food was at best average and the service poor. The portions (for the price) were small and the food quality was average. Check before you order drinks as the prices are extortionate even by todays standards. Overall, an extremely underwhelming experience. We will not be returning.

Went for a Birthday Meal for my partner, we had the Lamb burger and Sirloin Steak, both could not be faulted, overall the Food was excellent, Staff were welcoming and polite, definitely going back. 👍👍👍

Thankfully we reserved a table in advance and it was a good job we did as it was busy on Sunday afternoon; friendly bustle of a village pub. Homemade pie was tremendous as was the lamb. Decent portion size too. Perfect after a local walk.

Most unwelcoming and rude. The inconvenience we caused by turning up without any warning, to a pub, to have drinks and maybe even order food. How dare we try support a local business!! Never again.

Excellent food and great service. A welcome stop on our afternoon walk. We will be visiting again.

Nice food great atmosphere and a warm welcome

This is such a lovely country pub with beautiful outdoor sitting at the back. Food is tasty, portions large and atmosphere nice and relaxed. Their home cooked chips are one of the best I ever had. Good selection of drinks and beers. Staff is friendly and attentive. We really enjoyed our Sunday lunch.

Great food, great staff, and friendly atmosphere

Lovely pub that goes back to the 13th century. Great food and beer. Special ambience set in the heart of the Yorkshire Pennines.

Stayed locally for a weekend recently. The area is beautiful and peaceful. Came across the beehive by chance and reallt wasnt dissapointed. Staff were friendly and helpful. Its doubles as both a relaxing locally but also serving locally sourced food. The meals were were perfectly cooked and value for money. This was definitely an amazing place to relax infront of an open fire after busy days sight seeing in a beautiful part of England.

Great country pub, cosy and good service

Great meeting place and some really good Pub Grub, bit harsh, really great food. A must if in the area!

Lovely rurl pub with a large choice on the menu. We had beautiful meals. Dog friendly and fire place that was in full operation when we arrived. Would highly recommend it

Beautiful pub full of character. Service was warm, friendly and efficient. Food was very nice and servings are extremely generous in size.

Lucky to get in as quite busy. All staff helpful and friendly. Had 3 roast dinners which were hot and well cooked. All had plenty of meat and good selection of veg. Reasonable prices. Will certainly be going back. Only negative is that my pint of Farmers Blonde didn't taste just quite right. Brother in law went onto Landlord which was fine.

First visit to the beehive, we were accompanied by our 2 dogs, staff very friendly and attentive, the food is good but in my opinion a little overpriced, probably wouldn't visit again due to location and menue prices.

Great pub, the owner and staff were really friendly, helpful, there was nothing too much for their customers Food and drink was a reasonable price, pub was very clean. Brilliant local pub, please visit if your in that area as they will make you feel at home. We will definitely visit them again when we are in that area. Thank you once again to all the lovely staff who made our visit enjoyable. 100% A*****

Fabulous local pub, great staff, the owner and her staff are so friendly and very welcoming, nothing is any trouble for her customers. Great drinks, great food at a reasonable price A***** 10/10, Would definitely recommend this pub, if your in the area this is one place you need to visit.

Went for a couple of drinks with long time friends and was meet with nothing but a lovely open welcome by rosh the manager on shift and all the other members of staff. Thank you for solid good service

Great food, friendly staff in a beautiful location

Great food, dog friendly, lovely outdoor eating with top views, highly recommended

Very pleasant staff excellent service and food

Great food in proper portion sizes and friendly staff 😊 Always enjoy my meals at the Beehive. Great pub.

Very close to the holiday cottage where we were staying. A great find, a homely atmosphere, we were made very welcome. The menu is not vast but is varied and the food is of good quality, well cooked and good value. A dog friendly place so we were able to take our lad with us. Would certainly return if in area again.

Awesome 👏 hospitality very friendly staff rang up for last minute booking very welcoming and food was out of this world proper Sunday Lunch 👍🏼😉 and very dog friendly.

Great home cooked food, good value
