I spent the day exploring Ilkley, starting at The Crescent and taking in its history and relaxed, welcoming feel. From there I made my way to Fuggle & Golding Tap House, then on to Bini Brew Co, where it was great to be so close to the brewing itself. Each stop offered something a little different, which kept the day interesting as I went along. The Flying Duck stood out for its cosy, traditional setting, before I continued on to Bar T’at and The Ilkley Tap, both ideal for settling in with a pint. I also stopped at Friends of Ham, which had a great atmosphere and plenty to enjoy. I then called into The Station Pub before finishing at The Ticket Office. With good beers, friendly chats and welcoming spaces throughout, it made for a full and really enjoyable day.
