This week 'The Grove' at Springwood was awarded the Huddersfield Spring Pub Of The Season Award. In my opinion an award that has been a long time coming.
It is not everyone's favourite choice of pub but one cannot deny that to drag the pub from being a back street boozer that time had passed by to the place it is now is a credit to Ian, and his staff. It it a firm fixture on the Huddersfield drinking circuit and shows what can be achieved with a lot of hard work and a vision of how you want your pub to be.
There is something for everyone there. The beer enthusiast is treated over 12 changing hand pumps and the idea to have pumps dedicated to certain breweries has certainly paid dividends. Where else can you find the new beers from Marble, Thornbridge, and Brewdog together on a bar. These are backed up by changing guests from all over the country, with a few standard beers for those who like their favourites not to change.
They are supported by a vast array of bottled beers from all over the world, some coming from countries I never even realised had breweries. There are plenty of different lagers, not your usual fizz but proper foreign beers imported specially. And some of the strangest snacks you will ever see in a pub, or elsewhere for that matter.
Well done the Grove, you have waited a long time for this well deserved award.
If you have not yet been, take a look, it is well worth a visit, and worthy of its award.
