Nowell's Yard, Westtown, Dewsbury WF13

About This Pub

Ah, Beer Street – it's one of those classic pubs in Dewsbury that really captures the heart of what makes a good local spot. From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got that authentic old-school feel, with folks like Melanie and James raving about its charm and how it's kept things traditional without losing its appeal. The drinks are fairly priced, which is always a plus when you're catching up with mates over a few rounds, and it sounds like the staff go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome, whether you're popping in for a quiet drink or a bit of family time. On the flip side, though, it's not without its drawbacks – one chap wasn't too keen on the limited beer options, just sticking to John Smith's and nothing more adventurous, and he even suggested the crowd might not be everyone's cup of tea. Still, with most reviews giving it top marks, I'd say it's worth a visit if you're after a straightforward, no-fuss pub experience in the area. Overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening, but keep in mind it might not wow you with variety or a modern twist.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • It's a proper old-style pub that keeps its traditional charm, making you feel like you're stepping back in time for a cosy pint.
  • Drinks are reasonably priced, which is always a winner when you're out with mates and don't want to break the bank.
  • The atmosphere is spot on for a relaxed get-together with family or friends, and the staff are always accommodating and friendly.
  • It's a great spot for a nice, quiet pint or some light-hearted banter, with a welcoming vibe that's easy to enjoy.
Cons
  • The drink selection is a bit limited, mainly sticking to John Smith's with no cask ales on offer, which might disappoint those after more variety.
  • One review mentioned it attracts a certain crowd that could feel a tad rough for some tastes, so it might not suit everyone looking for a polished experience.
  • With only 32 reviews in total, it's not exactly buzzing with feedback, and the website's a bit of a let-down with errors popping up.
  • Operating hours are straightforward, but it's just open from midday to 11 PM every day, which is fine but nothing out of the ordinary.
