Grayston Unity, Halifax

Described as a Bar, venue & cultural hub, this is an interesting bar. Long and thin with seating before you get to the small central bar on the right hand side and then additional seating beyond. Then apparently there is a smaller snug room up the staircase to the right of the entrance and then a roof top terrace beyond that, but neither of those were explored, nor was the performance area downstairs mentioned by the previous two reviewers, which I completely missed. The bar has five ale pump, a set of keg taps for craft beer options and for our visit four cider poly pins at the end of the bar. The available ales were Goose Eye Chinook Blonde, Saltaire South Island New Zealand Pale Ale (very good), Titanic brewery Iceberg, Blackjack Brew Co Early Days and Parkway Brewing Norwegian Blue. Then the craft options included three from Cloudwater a couple from Thornbridge and Brennan’s Irish stout. There is a membership scheme available for £27 a year which gets you roughly 5% off the price of drinks. Interesting place and I enjoyed my short visit here and can imagine that it’s a good location to come and watch a performance. Opening and closing times vary and are extended when there is an event on, either here or in the nearby Piece Hall ( which happens during June and July).
