Cask Ale Real Cider

A beautifully refurbished historic traditional-style pub close to the town centre. Originally constructed as a farmhouse in 1709, this is reputed to be Ilkley's oldest pub building. It was re-opened in late 2013 under its current name, a reference to a previous name. This Grade-II Listed building retains many of its original features, such as, Yorkstone and oak flooring, beamed ceilings, internal stonework and mullioned windows. Up to eight real ales, including four regular ales from the in-house brewery and always including a porter or stout. A further three hand-pulls and ten keg taps offer a range of ciders, lagers and craft beers. There is also a bottle and can fridge featuring beers from Belgium, Germany and the UK. Wharfedale Brewery is located in a barn to the rear and tours can be arranged. The first floor function room includes a bar and is free to hire. There is an outside terrace to the rear. Live bands perform on the 1st & 3rd Friday evenings of the month. There is also a singer/songwriter night on the last Thursday and an acoustic session on the last Sunday of the month. Walkers, runners and cyclists are welcome as are well-behaved dogs. Open on Bank Holiday Mondays (when Sunday operating hours apply) but closed all other Mondays.
