Bar 56, Saltaire, Shipley

Small corner bar with half a dozen round tables with matching comfy chairs plus a barrel as a table and some bar stools, one interesting glass topped table made of engine parts. What isn’t big clear window is striped back brick, some covered by a couple of biggish tellys or in an alcove a dartboard. The ceiling is weird being a selection of wine/spirit bottle necks protruding from the false laminate ceiling - most odd. Four keg taps, only one I hadn’t seen before so I had that - a cold , gassy, dispiriting, experience as expected; I later discovered it was a bit of Heinekin badge engineering. Spirits and wines available from the neatly done bar back.

Small, two level fizz bar, surprisingly being run by an Asian couple. Lots of decorative wood around the place including fake barrels. It looks like they've spent quite a bit of money on this place, but have managed to achieve bland. A half of Heineken as a rip off £2. I'll be missing this one out on my next visit to Saltaire.
