About This Pub
Ah, Ravenswharfe Hotel – it's one of those pubs that just has that genuine, down-to-earth charm, you know? From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's a proper traditional spot in Dewsbury where you can pop in for a well-poured ale without breaking the bank, and the staff are spot on, making everyone feel welcome right from the off. I love how it's become a go-to for quiz nights and such, adding a bit of fun to the evening – it's like gathering with friends for a laugh and a game. The beer garden sounds like a real gem for sunnier days, giving you that outdoor pub experience we all crave. But, to be fair, it's not all roses; a couple of folks have mentioned it feeling a bit worn out, almost like it's holding onto its glory days in a less lively area, and insisting on cash only can be a right nuisance in this digital age. Still, if you're after an honest, no-frills night out with good company and cracking value, I'd say it's well worth checking out – just go in with realistic expectations and you'll likely have a top time.

Nice drink and beef garden
Appalling little hovel that has seen better days, a hallmark of the dying town it lurks in
We started going here for a weekly Thursday night quiz after the quiz organisers wanted to find a better place than the place they went when the place that it was held at unfortunately closed so we started going here a few weeks back and it's a decent old school pub, cash only, good atmosphere and a choice of pub games. Big up the Thursday night quiz crew
A lovely local pub with well kept Ales and a friendly atmosphere run and owned by the lovely Cheryl.
A down to earth, lovely pub to visit. Everyone was so friendly on our 1st visit and it has never changed. Also the best beer prices around. Give it a visit, you won't regret it
