Boltmakers Arms

This is small beans but is the place to hit if you like your ale, pure and simple. Ask for a Woo Woo and you’ll probably get shot or mutilated in the most unpleasant manner but if you want beer hop on board! Don’t push it with a Malibu and Cherryade either or face certain death.

Popped in on a quiet Wednesday night, but it was quite fulland no wonder. The beer was about as perfect as you can get; The Golden Best was beautiful, great texture, a really quaffable yet satisfying pint. My mate’s RamTam met with approval too. Guest beer was a Robinson’s Unicorn, but I went back to the T T’s as it was beyond comparison.

A fabulous small pub and I mean SMALL! People used to joske that you’ve have your legs stuck out of the door at the Boltmakers! That said it has a great friendly atmosphere and some of the best beer in Keighley. They have some fabulous quiz nights and when the weather does pick up there is a small beer garden at the back. I’m not sure if they do pub grub as I’ve only ever been there late evenings. The pub is well located just outside the shopping area and is a quaint little haunt that’s great for a quick few pints or ten and a good chat. I don’t think they have any sky TV in there so it’s not geared towards the fottie fan, that said you’d be hard pushed to get a five a side team in this little gem of a pub!

A small pub selling real Timothy Taylors beer. Very friendly atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks. They tend to have fun quiz/​comps on if you go in here after work on a Friday. It’s a very small pub so can get quite cosy in busy periods. There’s also a small beer garden out the back.
