About This Pub

Ah, The Brontë Lounge – what a little gem in Birstall! From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, folks are really chuffed with the place; the staff are proper legends, always on hand with a smile and making sure everything runs smoothly, whether you're just popping in for a cocktail or hiring out that upstairs function room for a big do. The food's spot on too – think yummy tapas, garlic mushrooms, and cracking cocktails that hit the mark every time, especially with those deals like two for £12. It's got this cosy, quirky feel that makes you want to linger, perfect for catching up with mates over a relaxed afternoon or evening. On the flip side, it's not without its quirks; the menu could do with a few more options to keep things exciting, and being closed midweek might cramp your style if you're after a spontaneous visit. All in all, though, it's a solid choice for anyone seeking a friendly spot with great drinks and vibes – I'd say give it a try and see for yourself!

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The service is absolutely spot on – friendly and attentive staff who go out of their way to make your visit memorable, just like in those glowing reviews.
  • The food and cocktails are a real treat; from delicious tapas and bottomless brunch options to expertly made drinks, it's perfect for a relaxed get-together.
  • It has a lovely, cosy atmosphere with a quirky vibe that makes it feel welcoming and unique, ideal for unwinding with friends.
  • The function room is a brilliant feature for events, complete with its own bar, making it a top choice for birthdays or special occasions.
Cons
  • The menu isn't the most extensive, so if you're after a wide range of choices, you might find it a bit limited compared to bigger spots.
  • It's only open Thursday through Sunday, which could be a downside if you're looking for a midweek escape.

Just hired Bronte Lounge function room for my mums 80th. Cannot speak highly enough of the service we received, from the organising to the actual event, everything ran like clockwork. The food was delicious and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much to Natalie and her team for making our day one to remember.

Ladies night out. Great atmosphere, with friendly staff. Food choices we tried: Halloumi fries, garlic mushrooms, mini sausages in cider, creamy garlic mushrooms, garlic and chilli king prawns, salt and pepper chicken, steak with salad and truffle oil, calamari with lemon mayo and grilled chicken burger. All dishes were tasty, served hot and plentiful. Table tucked away in a quiet corner. Great night out, well done Brontë Lounge. Highly recommended. 👌

Great bar, quite quirky. Food was absolutely gorgeous. Lovely cocktails 2-4-£12 and friendly staff. Can’t fault it. Had a fab afternoon. Would definitely recommend any of the tapas.
