If you ever hanker after a place where people go to have a few drinks and a chat, not distracted by TV, Juke boxes and families having a meal, this is the place. Situated in the middle of a row of terraced houses off the beaten track, you would NEVER find it if you didn't know it was there. I believe its basically 2 terraced houses knocked into one, there are several rooms, no vast open plan shed. Each room having tables with banquette seating and stools. It is utterly charming and harks back to a bygone era, but not in a nostalgic reproduced or preserved in aspic way, it just is what it is. They have a nice selection of rotating beers, and you get to try a real hodge podge if you are brave...
Wow! Think of a place you would love to spend a couple of hours in an environment with locals who will treat you as one of their own, honest in their quest for imbibing fine ales in an atmosphere so comfortable that you 're thinking I wonder if I can change our itenary so that a return visit here can be arranged for tomorrow and the day after that . We were visiting good friends of ours in Halifax, Yorkshire and visited our host 's favoured local Big 6 Inn The pub is steeped in history as evidenced by a number of copies of framed historical documents. It is everything a pub should be. From my point of view, that means the cask beers alone make a visit here more than well worth with the publi...
I recently tried out The Big 6 for the first time with some friends and was initially unsure of its location. Nestled in the middle of a row of terraced houses, The Big 6 could easily be mistaken for just another residence. However, once inside, I was pleasantly surprised to find a layout resembling a terraced home with various rooms for dining and drinking. The beer garden located across a back street was a nice touch. The restaurant offers a great selection of real ales and has a welcoming atmosphere.
This restaurant is fantastic. I am delighted that it has been taken over by new owners who have maintained its original charm. The Big 6 has been my go-to spot for 22 years, and I am pleased that they have kept it unchanged. Best of luck to the new owners and a happy retirement to the previous owners who have been there for over 35 years. Cheers, Fridge. (The photo with the car keys is a reminder that I can now enjoy 5 pints at my local without worrying about driving home after just one.) Book a table now
I am a member of CAMRA and really wanted to visit this pub and try some of their ales. We fell in love with it from the moment we opened the door, the smell took us back to the old days of how pubs used to be. Lots of rooms with fires and a real olde worlde feel and charm to the place. A greta selection of ales and the staff and locals extremely friendly. Dogs were in abundance too! Definitely worth a visit to see how a pub should be!
This pub is a terraced house on a street. It is cosy with real fires and you can take your dog or cat in. I used to drink in here when at the School across the road and recently called in and it’s exactly as I remembered it. Please don’t ever change as it’s perfect
This restaurant offers a fantastic variety of beers served by a team of friendly and attentive staff. It is a classic pub in every sense, and definitely worth checking out.
Fantastic local's pub situated on a secluded row of terraced houses. Pinball machine and historic range make the place stand out. Great range of Yorkshire ales. Excellent. Book a table now
Lovely pub, full of character. Good selection of hand pulled beers. Sadly most rooms have gas fires but one has an open fire which is so cosy in these cold winter days.
Lots of atmosphere and choice of beers/ales. Out of the way in a Halifax side street near Savile park. Worth seeking out.
