The Gray Ox - Liversedge

Went for Sunday dinner, could not fault the food or service, would highly recommend

We recently visited the Grey Ox after reopening under new management. As regular customers of the Grey Ox for years, we were slightly disappointed in the changes that have been made. Firstly you notice as you walk in, the lovely leather chairs that were previously placed in front of the open fire have been moved to the side, one of our favourite things to do was come and have a glass of wine in front of the fire after a long dog walk on a Sunday, so I really hope they bring these back for the winter months. Secondly, they have re-painted a lot of the restaurant area which definitely gives it a brighter feel, however I think more care needed to go into new chairs as many of them are incredibly uncomfortable and falling apart and the seams. Next was the food, this was a huge disappointment for both my partner and I. We ordered a sirloin steak, myself medium rare and my partner medium. Neither came cooked correctly and the taste was quite bland. The staff were very friendly but when asked for a wine list I was told there was not one, and when asked what red wine was available I had to go to the bar myself to select as the waitress did not know what was to offer. This pub has so much potential and I hope that the feedback they receive is considered and they can turn this around into a huge success.

Edit June 2024: called in again, with family and we all had a terrific lunch. Came with family as I'm over on holiday. Great pub. Great food. And very good service. Highly recommended.

Once again it seems no one there . We booked last week and turned up on time to find the place locked up and no one to say why . Why does the internet let you book if they are not open ,we went to Whitegates next door to the Whiteleys garden centre and had a lovely lunch and catch up with friends

THIS PLACE IS CLOSED There were 5 cars there we had all booked for lunch online. Nobody in the place , doors locked and blinds down. I had booked through Google and had a reminder from Google this morning
