What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Nightjar Bar is praised for its extensive and high-quality ale selection, cozy and unique atmosphere, and friendly staff. While many enjoy the vibrant ambiance and good prices, some reviews mention that cocktails can be style over substance and expensive. Group size limitations can also be a point of frustration for larger parties.
"03/10/24: Fierce & Noble Brewery: Siesta Sangria sour 5%.

01/05/23: back again. Still a great choice of craft ale. We really enjoy it here! [photo uodate]
12/08/22: Hebden Bridge Ale Trail: Nightjar Brew Company (previously Slightly Foxed) is a microbrewery in Mytholomroyd, which has a Brewery Tap on site and a small, quaint bar on New Road in Hebden Bridge. We went to the New Road bar which has extensive list of ales, a small selection on tap and a good variety of flavours & styles to suit everyone! Friendly and helpful staff made our choices easier."

"Good choice of keg, better on my last visit, they had one of my favourite Vault city beers on then, this time wasn't impressed with one of the beers i had The Last mango in Halifax, but the Juice Forsythe was decent."

Shortlist: Nine Hebden Bridge Pubs That Locals Recommend!
Vibrant and a little quirky, Nightjar in Hebden Bridge may quickly become one of your favourite places to visit. Exposed brick walls, wooden ceiling and gentle hue lighting creates a real ambience and very cosy feel. And one of our favourite things are the fact the tables look like they may have been made using driftwood.
Hebden Bridge Pubs – Jane Stuart – Writer
I was now in ‘revert to stout’ mode which seems to be a thing when I’m faced with a beer board. Looking at it now with fresh eyes, I’d have liked the Yonder Pink Lemonade, I think. We sat outside on the main road watching the world go by but also popped back in for a loo review.
