I have absofrikinloutley no idea and couldn't give a to55.

Is that what that ABV% thingy means? does that tell you how nice it is?

What's the other Leeds Brewery pub, down near The Adelphi? I've been in the other 2, in fact we bobbed into the Brewery Tap before the game on Sunday, but I've not done the 3rd one.

Oh, and Headingley Taps - the reverse Tardis. Huge looking pub that about 5 people can actually fit inside.

agreed. love the brewery and went in the pin for the first time a few week back. Adelphi is a top pub as well

PIN. I recommend the fish and chips, but not the risotto

Cheers, I'll be sure to check it out soon.

still if you have a day out and get tanked up who cares? We do one every year on the first friday in May. Its the Garpax Challenge and we are in the 7th year of it. 11am to 11pm and its 14 pubs starting in Garforth and ending in Kippax. Its a good day. Also annually do the Huddersfield Line challenge. Now thats a nice one in summer

Cellar Bar, West Riding, etc? Which one's do you do West of Huddersfield?

cellar bar and west riding are my locals so im in safe hands. we start in manchester on a morning in where ever take are fancy near oxford road. then do piccadilly station, staylebridge (station), greenfield (railway hotel), marsden (tunnel end inn), slaithewaite (the swan), Huddersfield (station) then do marsden (navi), west riding, cellar bar, miners arms in morley (we miss the sphinx in cottingley) and back in leeds for scabby taps

I thought The Sphinx closed quite some years ago? Either way, I agree it's something best avoided.

As for them pubs, Miners is not far from me, not that I go in that often; Cellar Bar is an infrequent, yet appreciated, haunt; and The West Riding is the pub I'm in more than any other, so it's a small world, etc, etc.

The others in West Yorks I've not done, but it sounds like a good day out does that one, might have to give it a go at some point.

I prefer the X for sex, cost me £6 to get in last week, robbing gits.

Weatherspoons do a few Leeds Brewery drinks also.

I've not eaten in PIN but i did have my best pint of Pale Ale in there.

are you a pale ale fellow or the Leeds Best bloke?

Leeds Best bloke. Not tried the Pale Ale as yet, but there's a chance that could change.

My favourites back in the day were ....

The Hyde Park for a game of bar billiards

The Pack Horse and the Eldon for a pint or two of Tetleys "Light" Mild

Then up to the Headingley Bowling Club for a pint of Henry`s Dark Mild with top ups from the bar jug

Wrong - The Woodman is its correct name, or as it was also called, "The Busmans Pub" in the days when even LCT bus drivers enjoyed a tipple whilst working.

That would be a hell of a walk from The Lawnswood though

I'll give you an insight into what lager is ...

Anyone who knows me knows that I have a problem with beer, there's something in it that gives me humongous hangovers, usually half an hour after starting to drink it, which is a shame because I love a pint of "proper" beer, but the more "proper" it is the worse it makes me.

Lager does not have that effect at all, ever.

I can drink bottled lager like pop, especially the contents of that Aladdin Sane's fridge.

I even think they had their own little "tap`ole"

In general yes, but you can't say that a pint of fizzy pi$$ like Carling is comparable to something like Grolsch or Peroni. Taste wise they are far nicer, and with a premium stregth lager you probably get more drunk for you money.

They did, on the right hand side as you walked in the door was the busmans "snug", it oculd be quite disconcerting to be sat on the bus outside the depot and then see a driver and conductor come out of The Woodman and get on your bus



And another thing - the conductors never had any change after the Woodman stop, but the Woodman always had loads of pennies and tuppences

Being from Leeds and goint to Leeds University I got the best of many worlds. Little Park was our favourite pub -we lived just around the corner anyway.
The Faversham was interesting because a theology student called Ursula always got her baps out after 9pm. She was one of those fast an loose young ladies that I never had a chance with, mainly because those types were all being "graded" by their lecturers (as was Ursula).

Miners was my local from the age of 14 to 21 as I was born and raised on the croft houses down the back. used to play for the miners saturday team now and again under many a name. Agreed though it is cr4p now. we have thought of walking down the road to the Rock but its not much better.

It is a good day but it needs pace and good timing. certain pubs are classed as rattle pubs as between trains you have all of 20 minutes to rattle down your pint

but us gritty northerners can hack a walk unline the southern poncy students

This is like all our yesterdays, as when we first moved to Morley I was on New Bank Street, near the steps down onto Station Road.

The Rock was good until a couple of years ago, when they changed landlord. It's always been that way in my experience, varying from good to bad every couple of years. At the minute, I'm of the view there's no decent pubs in Morley.
