The Pickled Pheasant in Kirklees - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The best battered fish of my life!!! Take fish and chips! Chips are soggy but fish, fish is to die for! And Gracie is so great and considerate, I hope you get her to take care of your table! Mushy peas have mint in it and it taste great

Fabulous place, staff are friendly, lovely warm welcome, the rooms are beautiful, super comfy beds and spotlessly clean, breakfast was delicious had a great stay. Great location stunning veiws. Thank you! Hope to return soon 🙂

Marvellous place, very clean and nicely decorated. All staff were very friendly and welcoming. They have a fantastic cake & ice cream section, which I failed miserably to avoid. What happens in Holmfirth…..

This isn’t the first time I’ve been to the pickled pheasant/munch. However I’ve simply had enough of how rude, arrogant and unpleasant the manager is here. We popped in for a quick ice cream, the man who served us was great, super friendly and made us feel welcome, whilst this was happening the manager was staring us out (reminder this is a common occurrence). As we were leaving we asked if he had a problem with us, he instantly shut us down and just walked off. The owners really need to have a think if they want this guy representing this place, as I’ve seen multiple bad reviews about him. Won’t be returning until he’s gone.

Excellent lunch visit for six and large dog. Good food and welcoming staff. Arrived quite late after being let down by another local pub. More than happy to accommodate us.

Really lovely room (Pheasant) on the top floor. The room was big and very comfortable. Breakfast was cooked to order and really good. Customer service is excellent

Sorry, I thought highway robbery had been and gone. We stopped here yesterday for 2 coffees and 2 bacon butties and ok I needed a pee. Bear in mind a bill of £20, the staff behind the counter ignored me for several minutes then seemed to spring into life, I ordered our coffees which came reasonably quickly 😀 so far so good, we then waited 30 minutes for 2 bacon baps, when they finally arrived after us drawing attention to our delay, the baps consisted of 2 soft buns , no butter and a stingey small pieces of bacon which my wife actually placed on one half of the bun to make something like. Sorry but I won't be back.

Came for Sunday dinner with the family and it didn’t disappoint! Our server - Lex was very attentive and made sure we wanted for nothing. Thank you very much everyone, we’ll definitely be back 😀

Stayed here on our way to Scotland from the East Midlands. Superb accommodation with nothing left out, the little finishing touches puts it a cut above the rest. The staff are so welcoming and nothing is too much. Big shout out to the Front of House staff: Lex, Ruby, Dom, Gracie, Lily, Nicholas and Ben! Chefs, Nathan & Tom - thank you for sharing your recipe for the topping of the pie, I will be making it as soon as I get home.! Thank you so much for a memorable stay, we will definitely be back.!

We booked a 3 night stay and on arrival first impressinons were good but that changed. Good points... spotlessly clean, friendly staff. Bad points......we paid £580 for BB for three nights to find out the the rooms did not receive daily housekeeping therefore beds were unmade, clean towels, extra water/ tea / coffee had to be asked for. There was no cereal, fruits or toast provided with breakfast, we even had to ask for some juice. We will not be staying there again.

We stayed the night for our wedding anniversary last year and everything was beautiful! The room was small but perfectly formed! Our evening meal was delicious and portions were great. The breakfast was delicious! We called in for a drink a month ago and again a lovely warm welcome x

Our visit could have been a lovely experience however it was tainted by the attitude of one member of staff. We called in advance to book a table and spoke to a lovely gentleman who was equally as lovely when we arrived. The young female members of staff were also very helpful and pleasant. The problem arose when 45 minutes after being served our starter, we hadn’t received our main course so I decided to enquire about the whereabouts of our meals. The barman/waiter was really quite rude. Saying that there was a large party in is not really a good explanation for waiting so long. If they were unable to serve the number of people in the allocated time do not take bookings. Our food arrived within minutes which was in fact Sunday lunch which takes very little preparation. I think they simply forgot about us. We are on holiday and when we arrived we thought that we would spend a lot of time here. Sadly this will not be the case. Sort out your time management and train all your staff to the same standard and this place could be great. Very disappointing because the food was good. The service and attitude of one individual has really put us off this pub and we will not return.

Absolutely amazing food, the best steak , burger, fish and chips, the flavours were outstanding and portions huge. Brilliant chef. Definitely recommend.

Dinner with friends, out front was Lexi & in the kitchen wss George (I think). Both did an amazing job, great night but definately more staff required.

As soon as I arrived for my meal with my family , I knew by the look of the tables that we would be in for a treat , however I was put off straight away by the way the manager spoke to his staff, it was unprofessional and rude, upon hearing this , we decided to leave promptly , someone in charge or a team should not act/treat people in this manner

Beautiful meal with a group of friends last week, sat in front of the roaring fire such a lovely atmosphere. Can’t recommend the steak and stout pie enough, 10/10!

Lovely place, quaint and modern combined. Good atmosphere and been many times over the last few years. Always good service and lovely food. Attended a family funeral last year also and everyone had a 3 course meal which was delivered with precision and I was really impressed. Friendly lovely staff and although particularly busy was well run. Highly recommend.

WE went for Mothers day, 11 of us. The ones who had beef, were all poorly ,the following day with stomach pains, and running to the loo. Not going back.

We booked out the upstairs room for a hen party and the restaurant could not have been more accommodating. The food was fantastic and the staff were very helpful. I have to give a special mention to Lex and Ruby who looked after us all. Thank you for helping the bride to be have a fantastic night!

I just been for lunch at the pickled pheasant What a lovely place beautiful setting The food was nice.my only complaint was i could hear what i presume was the manager. Shouting and talking to one of his staff. I wouldn't talk to my dog like that. then a woman came through looking really upset and left the premises in tears by the look of it? Im not in hospitality but im sure no one should have to be talked to like that. That poor and may i add beautiful looking woman. Who ever it was talking down to her should not be in charge Ruined my lunching experience. I will not be back

Went for Sunday Lunch. Dinner was average, starters were pre plated and really cold. Desserts were uninspiring. Service was good with exception of being rushed/pressured to order. Definitely better places to visit in the area. No rush to go back which is disappointing as wanted to try for ages.

We have returned from a one night stay at the Pickled Pheasant and stayed in the Mallard room. The room was beautiful and genuinely perfect. This was the same for the Pickled Pheasant itself when we went for breakfast before checking out. The breakfast was delicious and one of the best I’ve had for a long time. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and made us feel welcome. We were staying due to a concert at the Picturedrome in Holmfirth which meant we weren’t really able to take full advantage of the area (e.g. walking along local routes) and room facilities (e.g. in-room bathtub). We have already booked to return in the summer to be able to take full advantage of both of these. I would highly recommend!

So we decided to go to the Pickled Pheasant for Mother’s Day with my family and most importantly my mother , upon arrival we were ushered to an upstairs room and seated in a draughty corner by the manager whom I can only describe as pretentious , over priced and underwhelming with a side of arrogance
