Brilliant place love our Sunday carvery x

A limited menu and a bit pricy but food was ok and good portion sizes. No specials and not great for vegetarians. The place was dead on a Saturday evening and, despite having booked, we felt rushed through and staff started shutting up shop just after 9pm so we ended up having to cut our evening short as there is nowhere else close by. Previous experiences, during the day, have been much more positive but I would avoid going in the evening. No atmosphere and made to feel like we were a nuisance. Customers should be informed, when booking, that they close early if quiet and you will be required to leave.

A lovely pub/restaurant, excellent food & helpful staff. We had the Sunday carvery - 3 choices of meat, my personal favourite was the beef, pink & super tender. Loads of veg to choose from & plenty accompaniments.

Love this place. Always a friendly face and they are very obliging. Great environment to chill out in after a walk in the local area. Great menu catering for all dietary needs. Good portions and excellent value for money. I would recommend. Large car park.

It doesn't look fancy, but there's a lot of heart here. The first thing that strikes you is the attentive and friendly service, all regular guests are greeted by their first name and are served exactly what they want, no questions asked. The food is hearty and tasty and the portions large. Can only recommend a visit to the Sportsmans Inn to anyone who is in these parts.

This is a first class pub and restaurant situated in lovely countryside necabr to Greetland just south of Halifax. There is plenty of parking and opportunities to dine inside or outside. This is a dog friendly pub and the service from the staff was exceptional. There is an extensive menu and the food is absolutely first class. Well worth more visits.

This is a cosy country pub and restaurant, slightly off the beaten track, but well worth a visit. The menu choice is extensive, and the food is second to none. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. There is a large indoor restaurant as well as a lovely outdoor area. This is a dog friendly pub with a large parking area. The Sportsman is situated in Greetland well out of Halifax. I shall certainly dine here again.

We were looking for a dog friendly pub with easy access, to meet up with extended family. The Sportsman’s Inn was a brilliant location with good facilities, especially for 8 of us and 2 dogs. The staff were perfect. We were greeted as we arrived and shown straight to our table. Such a friendly and efficient service, we felt very welcome. Our dietary requirements were easily accommodated and we did not have to wait long for our food to arrive. Lunch was very tasty, easy to see from all the empty plates. We would definitely recommend this pub as a good place to visit.

One important point for us is that the meal was hot & served in hot plates. This can be a failing in many restaurants which is not realy acceptable. Will most definitely be visiting again .

Called in for lunch as we were passing, never been before so decided to give it a go. Lovely welcome from the staff when entering and was soon found a table, quick drink service and not long for the food to be ordered and to arrive. I ordered a burger topped with chicken and chorizo with melted mozzarella with fries and can honestly say it was the best burger I have eaten in any pub I have visited. Piping hot and full of flavour. Prices were great as well 2 meals, 2 pints of coke £33. Absolute bargain for what we had. Left full up and happy. I hope the staff get to see this as I did mention how good itvwas to the lady when paying. We will be back for sure

Not the cheapest, but the food is excellent, and the service is unbeatable. Those of our party who had the fish and chips commented that the fillets were a little small. The desserts are also pricey, but are very tasty and well presented. The atmosphere is good, but a wee bit leaning towards sports bar rather than cosy eatery. It's not stopped this from becoming our go-to venue when in the area though. I'll be having the deep-fried brie again for sure.

We visited the Sportsman on Good Friday following a family Easter walk. There were 14 of us dining and because of the number we were asked to pre-order our main course, which was fine. We were made very welcome by the staff on arrival. We had a really nice table ready for us. Our food arrived pretty quickly after arrival. All the food was really nice, all the meals arrived in a timely fashion and were nice and hot. A couple of diners requested extra gravy and this was accommodated without any question. Everyone enjoyed their meals and we all ordered a dessert. Overall a very enjoyable experience and we’ll definitely be returning.

Called in around noon for some food. It's reasonable in terms of value. The brisket was lovely, very tender. Proper Yorkshire pudding and a nice rich gravy. The burger was a good size, but a little dry. More sauce would have been better. I prefer my burgers a little less done than it was, it helps keep it juicy. I wasn't asked how I would like it cooked. The staff were friendly and attentive, very welcoming, but maintained professionalism. There wasn't much of an atmosphere, as it was very quiet, due to the time. There was some ambient music on, and I can imagine it being a good atmosphere peak times. Car park is plenty big enough and it is easy to find. I'd go again and would recommend it for other people who might be passing and looking for somewhere to eat.

Our friends had the steak (which she thought was fine) and our other friend had the sweet chilli chicken on flat bread, which he liked but, did say it was a bit hot 🥵. All told a god night and will visit again.

We’ve been a fair few times for Sunday lunch, which is always spot on. We choose here over other local pubs because I am vegetarian and they have a vegetarian Sunday lunch option, with veggie gravy, veggie Yorkshire pudding etc, so I don’t have to ask for something different and feel awkward. I often take my own gravy to places and ask for the Sunday lunch without meat, but no need here. Because it was warm we went for something different (again, great veggie choices) again, food, service and drinks were spot on. Amazing value for money too! Lovely people running the place, a must visit for those who enjoy good pub grub, good music and fabulous attentive service.
