| The new Mrs. H and I fancied raising a glass or two to, oh, I don't know what, maybe to the ex-inlaws' Plutonium Wedding Anniversary, so we called in here. Well, there was all sorts to keep us entertained besides the eight-or-so Ossett brews at the bar, what with the doberman-sized spaniel, and the young Plastic Bertrand lookalike, who patrolled the pub checking every alcove, but I'm not sure for what. It made as much sense as anywhere these days might though, and the beer passed muster with ease, so have seven-out-of ten, you fine hospitalians. And yes, I made that word up.

| Real ale lovers who appreciate this excellent pub will also be pleased to learn that the Brighouse Real Ale Trail now has a new member. It is the Pear Tree Inn at nearby Norwood Green. Typically it has very well-kept standards such as Teltey's and Timothy Taylor's landlord, but also charming guests such as Castle Rock Harvest Pale, Hobgoblin and so on. The pub has been tastefully redecorated in much lighter, airier style, and features fresh-cut flowers along with a now-delightful beer garden. The atmosphere is intended for the genial and well-mannered, and I cannot commend the staff highly enough for doing what is needed to preserve that. eddybeer - 24 Aug 2016 17:48 |
| As an occasional visitor to this pub, I was pleased to note that it has, if anything, improved. If you read my previous comment you'll see that's quite a compliment. Still the Ossett range plus guest(s) served in tip-top form, properly pulled, and left to settle before topping up. The clientele tonight seemed bright, chatty and a good mix of ages, but then the pub's fortunate in being set in Hipperholme, one of the better areas of West Yorkshire. Despite bordering the bandit country of Northowram, Norwood Green etc., it seems to have managed to repel boarders. I found the bar staff fine. eddybeer - 24 Aug 2014 21:58 |
| With regards to a previous post by user beerilike, I have to take issue with the comments made. I believe you to be the same petty person that sent an anonymous email to the brewery saying the same things. I will not comment on the two daughters as whatever happened is nothing to do with any of us patrons. I do however take issue with your comment of 'drunken landlady'. This is totally untrue and I suggest you take your comment off. I am a regular (almost daily) user of this pub and in the 7 years of knowing the landlady, I can honestly say she was not a drunk. More often than not she would be drinking coffee behind the bar and if ever she did have a drink (and possibly get drunk) was if she had a drink on her day off (which she is entitled to do as we all are). Even then she did not do this every week. It was a very rare event. I am sorry for the lengthy comment but I will not see someone slandered on a public forum when it is not deserved, even more so when done so by a coward who hides behind a username.

| What a shame such a nice pub has been ruined by ossett brewery employing a drunken landlady with daughters who steal from the till and are aggressive and ignorant to the patrons. beerilike - 14 Jun 2013 23:51 |
