Where?

The Head of Steam

When?

Tuesday 7th January 2020 7:00 PM - 11:00 PM

What?

The Head of Steam is a pub housed in the Grade 1 listed railway station buildings and, it may be accessed directly from Platform 1. The main entrance to the pub is from St. Georges Square.

The details...

Being well served by local and regional public transport links, you may choose to leave the car at home and take the opportunity to sample a few glasses of whatever tickles your fancy. That is of course, so long as you're not still suffering from the excesses of the holiday season.

Finding your way back home?

Train station, 0 metres.
Taxi rank, right outside the pub. You could literally fall out of the pub and into a cab.
Free on-street car parking (after 6pm), 100 metres.
Bus station, 250 metres.

Those of us that enjoy our real ales will be well catered for as the pub has 10 well-maintained hand pumps knocking out the good stuff. There's usually a selection of guest ales, guest lagers, bottles, cider and stouts too.

Food is served until 8:30pm. A menu is available online at the Head of Steam website and, includes soup, sandwiches, fish n chips, pizza, burgers, etc.

If Carlsberg did raffles...

Now for the most important bit... All those unwanted/unclaimed low-value Christmas pressies, the ones that'll otherwise just sit in a cupboard, never again to see the light of day; bring 'em along and we'll raffle 'em off. Through your generosity over the last few years, we have made some sizeable donations to many worthwhile causes. Hopefully, we can do the same again this year as we continue our support of Holme Valley MRT.
