The Courtyard Halifax

You'll find The Courtyard tucked away on Ward's End, in that stretch of Halifax where the town actually feels like somewhere people live rather than just pass through. It's the kind of place where the staff know regulars by name and you won't feel like a tourist if you're not. The pub does solid food without any faffing about — expect proper portions and reasonable prices that won't leave your wallet weeping. It's got a good mix of ages and types, from after-work drinkers to people actually eating, which is exactly how a neighbourhood pub should function.
