New tenants from May 2019 offer the entire Taylor's core range plus a seasonal beer. Customers are invited to make suggestions for the changing guest beer on the eighth hand pump. There is a fine selection of single malt and gins. Dominoes and playing cards are available on request behind the bar. Children welcome until 8 p.m. Opening hours shown are for December 2021.

Very handy for the bus station and services to Burnley, Ilkley and Skipton stop outside the door. Only non-alcoholic drinks are available before 9 a.m. A dedication to ale husbandry means that it is rare to find a handpump with no ale behind it.
