The North Group, who run North in Leeds, Further North, er further north in Leeds, the Cross Keys in Holbeck and a couple more high quality bars have just joined the new beer mecca that is Otley. We have a stunning collection of pubs in this unassuming Yorkshire market town, once a star of Emmerdale as Honton. Shame it's a bit of a trip for anyone outside Yorkshire otherwise I might suggest it for a PuG meet up.

Top pubs

The Fleece Wharfebank Brewery owned (bit of an unjustified campaign against it on here and in the toothy place)
Junction Inn suffers from the tired "olde ale house" format but still a very good bet
The Horse and Farrier a Market Town Tavern, need I say more?
The Old Cock CAMRA POTY but a super pub in spite of that
The Otley Tavern an unknown quantity as yet recently done up
and the new North Bar Social unknown but with a brilliant pedigree.

and a couple or three near things one way or another:
Bay Horse Inn
Black Bull Inn
The Bowling Green (JD Wetherspoon)
