I popped in here for a quick pint last night, and was very impressed. They had a good selection of real ales on, and the staff where very friendly. The building itself is very interesting, and it's certainly the first pub I've been to with it's own waterwheel. I didn't try to food, but it looked delicous.

Nice pub. It's standard Greene King fayre, but in an unusual setting. The staff seem friendly and both the beers I tried tasted well kept.

Brilliant pub with a good seletion of real ales and very friendly atmosphere. The railwayana on the walls is very interesting, and the staff on duty when I visited where the freindliest I've ever come across in a pub.

Nice little place, with a friendly atmosphere. The food's very good, but the prices are a bit steep. The staff are always friendly, and the beer seems well kept. Also, the views of the surrounding countryside are very nice.

This pub is shut now, and Thwaites is looking for someone to take over the tenancy. Another victim of the credit crunch it seems.

Nice little place. Seems to do a few real ales, and all the beers seem to be well kept. It's got a real local feel to it because of it's location, but it's close enough to the town centre to be a good starting point for a night out in Bury.

I recently had a night out in Bury town centre, and I reckoned that this qwas one of the best pubs I went in. The beer seemed fresh enough, but I didn't ry the food.

I've been in this place a couple of times, and I can't really put mu finger on it. The food is alright, and it's got the usual range of Green king ales. But the decor is to modern for my likingm, and the atmosphere seems a little sterile.

Nice little Thwaites pub with a good atmosphere. Tghere' nothing overly remarkable about ti, but they do a good pint.

Pleasant enough place, but it seems to have no atmosphere when it's quiet.

Excellent little place. As I volunteer on the preserved railway next door to it I find myself in here quite a lot. There's always a wide choice of real ales, and with it being an ever changing selection it's impossible to get bored of them.

Nice, friendly, local pub. Excellent food, but sometimes the cask ales don't seem to be that fresh.

Nice little Green King pub, the beer's usually fresh, and the food isn't bad. Very friendly atmosphere and a good quiz on Thursday nights.

It's a standard Wetherspoons, decent food and drink, relatively cheap.

This used to be an excellent pub under the former landlord and landlady, but it seems to have lost a lot of it's character now. It's still a reasonable pub, but if you're a bitter drinker you're choice is limited to Thwaites Smooth.

Nice little Holts pub. The staff are always friendly and the beer always seems fresh. I tend to go in on a Monday night when it's free pool and jukebox, that way it's a good, cheap night.

I went in on a Sunday evening a few weeks back with some friends of mine. The beer was good, but the choice of real ales was a little limited. It's a standard Green King pub, so nothing unique about the place, but it seems to be a perfectly good pub. And the staff where friendly.

This is an excellent pub, I make a point of visiting it everytime I'm in York. They've got an excellent selection of real ales, and the food is amazingly good and reasonably priced. The staff all seem really friendly, even when they're rushed off there feet at busy periods.

One of the better 'spoons pubs, and with very good staff too.
