Bingley, UK – The Myrtle Grove, located on Main Street, has been officially included in the Campaign for Real Ale’s (CAMRA) Good Beer Guide 2025, a highly regarded publication in the UK beer and pub industry. The guide was released on Thursday.
Members of the Bradford CAMRA branch selected the Wetherspoon establishment based on their regular evaluations of the quality of real ales served. Considerations included customer service, décor, and the overall atmosphere of the pub.
This marks the first time The Myrtle Grove has earned a spot in the esteemed guide. A spokesperson for CAMRA expressed their approval, stating, “The Myrtle Grove deserves its place in the Good Beer Guide 2025. We believe that when a licensee serves an excellent pint of real ale, other aspects of the pub, such as customer service, food quality, and ambiance, are likely to meet similarly high standards.”
Odhran Feeney, the pub’s manager, expressed his pride in the recognition, saying, “We are delighted that The Myrtle Grove has been acknowledged for the quality of its real ales by CAMRA members. We consistently offer a wide range of real ales, including selections from regional and microbrewers, and we host our own beer festivals.”
Assistant manager Mackenzie Slinger, who oversees the ales, added, “We’re thrilled to finally be included in the guide. It’s a significant achievement for us. We serve over 2,000 pints of ale each week, which is impressive for a small pub.”
Slinger emphasized the importance of customer relationships in their success: “We connect with our customers by understanding their preferences. We always have 10 ales on tap, and we strive to cater to different tastes, often exploring new breweries.”
He highlighted a popular choice among patrons: Wobbly Bob, a deep amber ale brewed by Phoenix Brewery, stating, “We sell over 100 gallons of it each week. When customers compliment our ales, it reassures us that we’re doing something right.”
