Not been here for a while and thought we’d go for lunch. Whilst it was quite busy there were some free tables. Lovely food - highly recommend the steak pie, chips and peas! Lady who was working was very friendly- will we go again ? Absolutely!

The food was very good. However the place was not clean. The tables were very sticky and it seemed they had been just wiped over. The same with the floor, looked dirty. The bar area could do with a really good deep clean. Also some decorating wouldn't go amiss

TLDR: Nice local pub with local faces. Free parking for a limited number of cars, outdoor drinking area, and accommodation. We stayed for the accommodation but I’ve visited the pub before for drinks etc. There’s an obvious perk of being above a pub, if you like pubs! The pub is nice. Theres good character and reasonably-priced drinks. Two TVs have sport on and such, but don’t expect a giant screen; it’s a local, rather than a sports bar. The room was clean and comfortable, fairly modern, good pillows and quilts, and a decent bathroom (if a little tired) and powerful shower. Pleasantly, at the front of the pub facing the road, we didn’t hear the pub below. We did hear a lot of traffic though which isn’t the best for light sleepers. Theres lots nearby such as a lovely Fish and Chip shop, a mid-sized Co-Op, and Greenhead Park a short drive down the road. A nice spot to visit for a round 😉 ‘Like’ if you found this helpful so that others see it 😉

Me and my partner are currently staying here for a few days while in-between moving dates. I'll admit we didn't have high hopes and it was just a place to stay until our new place was available but The Croppers Arms charm has gotten us both. The rooms are clean and tidy and cosy, the beds are comfortable. The pub itself is very nice. It has a very welcoming atmosphere and the regulars and staff have been polite and friendly. The staff are lovely and make you feel welcomed, even with all our questions and a crying baby. They helped us with getting the pram into our room and knowing times for everything. Excellent customer service. The prices are good for both food and drinks and their beer garden is wonderful when lit up at nice. They are child friendly too. They didn't have a cot available however this was through no fault of their own and didn't impact us too badly as we have a travel cot. Overall a very nice establishment with a welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff and great prices. The venue is only around a 15 minute walk from the town centre and just a couple minutes from gree head park. There are many local amenities basically right outside the front door, not far to walk for anything we've needed. We will definitely be visiting again! 😊

Had a lovely home cooked meal at the croppers, traveled from Leicester to see some friends, I did use to frequent the croppers but we moved away, found the new manager lovely, I remember when Nigel had it and it seems the pub is back to those days, some interesting boards around with a pie night, grill night and a fish Friday if I remember correctly, Food was lovely myself and my partner had a steak pie and it was beautiful, the service was good and had a good buzz around it, it’s changed a lot in the time I’ve not been in and it’s for the better, there maybe a grumble here and there as people don’t really like change so they, but give it a try in my personal opinion it’s miles better than it has been in the last 12 months, well done guys!

Having lived in Huddersfield for many years you could always rely on the Croppers for great food at a great price with good service; how things have changed.. We now live in Devon and on visits to see old friends we have stayed at the Croppers and have always been more than happy to eat and drink there but never again! Our Sunday lunch menu was very limited , the meal not great and the service very poor. There was no atmosphere in the pub, the staff were far from welcoming and it was almost empty. I would never have thought that a pub with so much buzz and vitality cold be changed in such a short space of time; if things don't return to as they used to be then closure, in my opinion, must be imminent.

Staff were friendly but no way does this place warrant the prices they charge. The price was reduced from £100 to £70, but even with the reduction, it’s not worth it. I could hear every question and answer from the bar below. The room smelled of damp. Looking at the photos, you can see why. I emailed the Stonegate Group after, but they didn’t have the decency to reply. Stay away ☹️

We booked a room for 2 days. Room itself isn't bad, but the bathroom is absolutely disgusting. Water is constantly dripping from the showerhead and the pipes make strange noises at night. We asked a refund for 1 day (we moved out around 2pm, right after we came back from work) and we were told we will receive it, unfortunately on the second day I received a message that refund is not an option due to late check out.

Give it a miss. Tried to visit with family. The pub is a nice clean tidy pub on a busy road. The menu is limited maybe 10 main choice an our visit 4 out of 5 choices were not available. Got the impression they were more bothered about a Christmas booking so decided to give it a miss. No one seemed too bothered about us leaving.

The lady behind the bar seemed a little skittish and nervous. She kept saying that she was “on her own” so there was a delay to her service. The pub was not that busy so this seemed like an excuse??

Still waiting after over an hour, when we queried it, told we had to wait for other diners to finish, due to kitchen space, when asked why book in for times then, just got an apathetic look , they seem to have plenty of time for cigarette breaks. No apologies or anything. The food wasn't even worth the wait. Booked in for 15.45 znd finally left at at 6.30pm . With no deserts. Absolute piss take.

Nothing pretentious about this place, just fab locally cooked food and very friendly staff. We both had the small steak pie with chips and gravy...at £6.50 you can’t beat it ! Home made pastry just like my wife’s mother used to make.We used to have a textile mill opposite the pub which is now a CoOp supermarket (Stanley Mills) until it went bust in the early 60s and my Dad always used to call in at The Croppers for a pint after work but even though he’s been dead 30 years we still call going to the pub, ‘going for a cropper’

This is the second time I have dined here and not been disappointed. It is so difficult to find an eatery that produces quality food. It is good pub food, nothing fancy and that is perfect for me, although there is a craze at the moment of cooking a steak pie with ale. If I want ale with my food I buy a glass of it. They serve large portions and that is reflected in the price. The place is clean and homely and was full of older citizens who are very discerning, there was no discount for older persons and that speaks for itself.

I was in the area or should I say that I would be in the area later and as I was in need of a room the Croppers Arms came up trumps. I arrived about 5.30 and went in and saw the man. My room was arranged quickly and I went up and freshened up. I went back to the bar and ordered a pint of something lovely. The beer was good and the menu looked tempting so I ordered a dish of pork with the seasons vegetables. The food was as great as always and another beer washed my troubles away. I've stayed in the Croppers Arms on quite a few occasions and I've always found the food and beer to be perfect. I often look to see if they have a room free when I need one near Huddersfield and I'm always glad when I get a free room. Needless to say that I'll try again in the future to enjoy another night at The Croppers Arms.

We called for a meal on wednesday, as I was uninspired in the kitchen at home. It was quiet, even for midweek. There was a few regulars at the bar, but only 4 or 5 tables occupied. we got some drinks and chose our meals. Hubby had Seafood Medley, with roasties and 3 veg, there was scampi, plaice + cod goujons. I chose Curry of the day, this was chicken in a medium spiced sauce, with rice + Naan bread. We both enjoyed our meals, hubby cleared his plate [as usual], I left a little though [ I was full up]. Before we left a few more 'diners' had come in out of the cold. The 2 young ladies that looked after us were attentive and pleasant, and said goodbye as we left. It was a nice meal and a break from cooking.

we visited for a meal on wednesday, it was quite busy. we bought our drinks and sat down to peruse the menu. i chose the lasagne starter as i fancied a sweet and did'nt want to overface myself. hubby chose haddock, chips,mushy peas, which came with garden peas instead + wedges replacing the chips, he did'nt mind the changes. my lasagne was plentiful and tasty, but lacked garnish, it would have looked more appetising with a little salad or a garnish at least!. hubby enjoyed his meal mostly, though there were a couple of bones in his fish. the jam + coconut traybake i ordered came without any cream or custard, it would have been dry, but was given some custard when i asked, it was very nice, the pastry melted in the mouth. we've dined here lots of times, this is the first time i've given less than a very good rating. i'm afraid they lost points this time because of the small niggles mentioned above. we'll come again because of past visits that have been very good. the staff were nice and polite though they were quite busy. its a popular pub with a seperate dining room if you prefer. they have 6 ensuite rooms that are nice, and i hear they do a good breakfast. the croppers is in a busy shopping area of MARSH, and the bus stops just outside to go to HUDDS town centre.

We arrived just as they were opening for lunch ar 12 o'clock. I went to the bar and ordered two beef dinners and drinks, which were very quickly served by a very attentive and pleasant waitress. The meals were perfectly cooked, the Yorkshire puds were perfect, just like mother used to make, and the beef and accompaniments were excellent. The pub itself was clean and welcoming. We'll be back.

A traditional pub, serving fine beers and handsome home made meals. Smaller portions if you ask. The fact that it was busy mid-week speaks for it's self.

First visit to the croppers and must say the food was good value for money. The portions were just right. The only criticism is the service was too quick didn't have time to digest between courses. Overall was left satisfied and will visit again.

we went for a midweek meal & combined it with a family catch up. the croppers is a regular meeting place. my niece, myself + my hubby ordered from the specials board, we chose; lemon herbed chicken, caramelised onion sausages + slow cooked belly pork respectively. these came with 3 veg + roast or mashed potatoes. my nieces partner and my brother in law chose from the table menu, roast beef dinner + roast pork dinner were their choices. all the meals were plentiful and tasty [lots of pork on the roast dinner]. the men chatted,[sport mainly,YAWN], the ladies talked, family,hols, e.t.c. a good get together+meal at a good price too.

It was Saturday teatime when we visited. We arrived at 4.55 just as the footy results scores were flowing through on tv. We then found out that food wasn't being served until 5.30, however the menus were on the tables and orders could be made in advance. The pub was quiet and the menu contained plenty of very reasonably priced pub staples, so much so that I struggled to narrow down my choice.Shortly after 5.30 our food arrived. The Hunter's Chicken got a big thumbs up from the missus as did our daughter's fish fingers, chips and peas. That only left me and unfortunately I was underwhelmed. The steak, ale and mushroom pie was tasty enough, it was well presented and there was sufficient of it, however I could only describe the temperature of it as tepid at best i.e. on the low side of warm. As I was ravenous, I was with the family and wished to eat with them, I didn't send it back but instead cleared my plate.This was the only aspect of our experience that didn't come up to scratch and I'm happy to give them another chance... at some point in the near future, I expect.Oh, and I almost forgot to say the Golden Pippin beer didn't disappoint. In fact I enjoyed it more than my meal!

I had the pleasure of staying at The Croppers Arms recently and I chose it because I have had good experiences with their menu in the past. In the past I chose a dish from the specials board but tonight I chose from the bar menu. The choice was good and varied and the prices didn't break the bank. They had a specials board but I didn't fancy the duck so I chose a chilli con carne with rice and garlic bread from the bar menu. I also chose a pint of one of their real ales which was another reason to choose The Croppers Arms. My chilli was spiced just right with just the right amount of chilli and the garlic bread wasn't over powerful. All in it was a very good meal washed down with a great pint of beer. A second pint instead of a dessert and I was finished. The Croppers Arms is a great place to eat and also a great Bed and Breakfast. I'll be returning when I need a room in the north next time.

Paid £45 for Christmas Dinner, we were handed a plated meal akin to a canteen for homeless people......simply rubbish. Nuff said.

4 of us went for a Christmas meal. The service was terrible, it took over an hour to serve two courses. When we had finished our main meal it took 30 minutes to clear the table. We had called in to book the table the week before. At the time of booking we asked if cheese and biscuits would be available for dessert as one of our party is diabetic. We were assured they would be. On the evening the order for cheese and biscuits was taken, the bar staff asked the kitchen if they were available and we were told they were. After 15 minutes the waitress told us there weren't any. Could it have been something to do with the quiz starting and they couldn't be bothered? This rather put a dampener on our evening, the food was mediocre and the service terrible, we had to ask for serviettes as none came with the cutlery for the starter.All in all not a pleasant dining experience.

Called in here with People from work and was thrilled to find fast efficient service and lovely food. They managed to serve 16 of us in our lunch hour and we were all back to work on time. Everyone enjoyed their meal. I will be coming back!

Service and the staff were exceptionally good, really friendly, and welcoming . The food was OK on the carvery could have been a little warmer if I'm being picky, and I thought quite expensive for one course when other places are 2 courses for a similar price.

After seeing such great reviews my friend & I booked a bottomless brunch not knowing what to expect as we had heard horror stories in the past of other establishments taking forever to serve drinks & limiting how many you can have so we weren't sure what to expect but we seriously had nothing to be concerned about as our waitress Alice couldn't have been more accomodating! Alice explained that we didn't need to leave our seats, she would personally serve us throughout our brunch & wouldn't wait until our glasses were empty before replenishing them & she wsa true to her word, not once in the 2 hours did we have an empty glass in front of us, she was attentive & friendly & really made us feel special. Now let me tell you about the food, it was absolutely outsanding, hands down the best craft burger we have ever had, we were surprised at the quality of the food as most bottomless brunches you get the food is just cheap snacks but this was a proper burger & so tasty! Thanks to Alice we are already planning our next bottomless brunch here & wouldn't go anywhere else as she really did make our day very special indeed.
