Where are we?

We are actually in the main buildings of Huddersfield railway station, occupying most of the west end. We have direct entrances from Platform 1 and from St Georges Square.

How do you get there?

We are in the town centre, so any bus will drop you near. The bus station is nearby – about 200 yards west.

We are PART OF the railway station buildings - come in from platform 1 or St Georges Square.

A bit about the outlet

The station buildings are regarded as THE best in Britain. They are grade 1 listed. When we took the premises over, they had been largely derelict for a great many years. We carried out a big renovation project and opened in March 1996.

This is a large, 4-roomed pub, with the rooms in ‘quarters’ around a central servery area. Each room has its own character and its own locals! 
       - The Buffet acts as the main station buffet. It is a no-smoking and quiet room. This is the main railway artefact ‘museum’ room;
       - The Family Room is red! It has more railway artefacts on display and plenty of comfortable benches;
       - The Lounge is the room live music takes place in. It is also where most of the advertising enamels are displayed;
       - The Bar is a wood-floored room which houses a display of antique advertising posters and a neon sign collection, as well as art exhibitions.
Very popular with students particularly – maybe it’s the comfy settees?!

There are tables and chairs on the platform all year round (if you can stand the cold!) and more are put out in the square on warm sunny days.

Having a wonderful time, honest!     

Cash machine

We have a cash machine that actually MAKES MONEY for users! Each transaction, for which a standard fee of £1.50 applies, produces a voucher for goods or services (changes) of MORE THAN the fee!! You can't beat that for a bargain!
