Town Hall Tavern

Walked in as the town hall clock and bells struck noon. And they were ready. As a massive Tim Taylor’s fan, this is the Mecca of English ale for me. Especially because it isn’t so easy to get up to Keighley without a car. Every TT beer available on cask here. Amazing. A small, cozy pub and a bit dark, but it was a dreary and rainy Monday. Quiet because the kitchen wasn’t open today and tomorrow (massive bummer). Barkeep was a young guy who seemed to be hungover but was passionate enough about the ales to nearly match my enthusiasm. Every beer was stellar, and I had a pint of every single one (well, the four I hadn’t been able to try yet). Naturally, great views of the town hall even though it was under renovation. Great experience and even better ales.

Held a retirement party here on Maundy Thursday 2024 for over 100 people. The manager Joe could not have been more helpful in the run up to the event - lovely to deal with / super helpful / really responsive to messages etc so I knew we were in good hands. On the day of the event all the staff were amazing and made sure everything ran smoothly. It was from 2.30 pm - 10.00 pm and as we were funding a free bar the staff were VERY busy ALL the time ! The buffet was great too - plenty to mop up all the booze. So many people attending commented on how fantastic the venue / staff were and want to host similar parties / casual events there now. It was EXACTLY what we wanted and I cannot praise everyone at the THT highly enough.

Lovely little pub. Only found it after searching Google for pub food and saw it's only a two minute walk from The Light, where we were heading for the cinema later. Had the full range of Timothy Taylor's cask ales on, so had three while I was there. Also had the Sunday Roast lunch (which is all they offer on Sundays), which was very nice. Nice friendly staff who are knowledgeable about the beers. Will have to try and pop in on another day of the week as I quite fancied the Steak and Ale Pie.

This is a good place to get a traditional Sunday roast. Paulicarus has been before. A traditional pub in the Timothy Taylor's estate oddly located near the Town Hall. A full range of Taylor's beers on the impressive bank of handpumps. Paulicarus chose the Boltmaker bitter three times. Very good. We all ordered the roast beef at £13.95. Chicken and gammon were also available plus a veggie option. Asked the bar staff for recommendations for the next pub..and it was a great choice..The Templar hotel.
