Will turn this into a vote at a later stage but if everyone can post uyp there nominated TOP 5 Sheffield City Centre bars or pubs, we can see what an interesting and diverse mix of venues we get. Restricted to City Centre bars/pubs only, for this purpose within the confines of the main ring road, so not just S1 but a few hundred square metres of S10, 2,3, et al.

Bars and pubs only, not late bars performing night club functions, ie Flares, but other late bars will be fine as long as they dont turn into the equivalent of a night-club re dancing, etc. Reasons for choices will also be interesting, aspecially if unusual or off the beaten track places. Lets see what we get.....

MY TOP FIVE CURRENT SHEFFIELD CITY CENTRE PUBS
NOT IN ANY ORDER

THE NELSON (re-vamped and re-discovered rock bar which really kicks on a Saturday, superb, just a bit too small)
THE BATH HOTEL (off West Street, traditional and unmodernised, great real ale and does not leave a hole in your wallet....real change from the pulse of West Street)
THE SPORTSMAN (Cambridge STreet rock pub, unmodernised, good vibes, great change from the scurry of Division Street and refurbished bars)
FROG AND PARROT (Long time fave pub, great beers and a superb mix of students and locals)
THE BROWN BEAR (very much not known by many other than old Sheffield locals, a real time warp old style pub stuck in the 1970's....yet lively at the weekend)

Go for it....lets here everyone elses faves...

Three Tuns, Red Lion and Fagans take some beeting....

The Devonshire Cat
The Frog and Parrot
The Yorkshire Grey
The Fat Cat (not strictly city centre but...)
Varcity (cos its so damn cheap!)

Wig and Pen, Campo Lane - I just like the odd building.
Bath Hotel - for the beer
All Bar One - no kids
Halcyon, Division Street - I don't know why I like it I just do
Sola, Behind the cathedral - Just a relaxing bar

I used to drink in the Brown Bear too, but recently it smells like a wet ashtray so I don't go anymore.

wig and pen - bit of class
nelson -rocktails at a weekend devine!
washington -just got to love it
sports man - friendly ,cossy
cubana - i love mijitos

Dev Cat
Bath Hotel
Rutland
Red Deer
Frog and Parrott

this is city centre stuff tho....if you include Kelham ISland etc, it would be differant :)

We think you have a hidden message for us!!

I has to be without a doubt the good old Yorkshire Grey.

I remember my dad taking me in there when I was a wee lad before the Game. Have many a good memories in there and seen many staff come and go.

It's a shame to see it in the sorry state it is at the mo with what I call Thnderbird 5 looming over it (The big white crane with 5 on it for some reason)

It's been the place of choice to drink during the day or before we hit the town for well over 3 years now. Every Friday from 7pm, Pint of Timmy in had, chilling out before we confront the hustle and bussle of further up town, and obviously the cheeky women


;)

yeah i like the yorkshire grey, shame its gonna go.

my fav pub isent in the city centre, the cromoren (think thats how its spelt), on london road is me local.

Can anybody recommend pubs for pool? Wouldnt mind heading down rylies near the portacottage down eccy road but dont know what i need to sign up. Do i need a current member with me for them allow me to sign up?

Also been looking for places that have Caffreys on tap, so far ive only seen it at the globe, anybody noticed it anywhere else?

The Yorkshire Grey has a couple of pool tables! As for Riley's, you don't need to bring a current member or anything, just turn up. Last time I renewed my membership (end of last year), it was £10 a year for adults, and £3 for students. The pool tables there are American 9 ball with massive pockets, though. Personally I don't like this, as I think it's too easy. There are no traditional pub pool tables.

I think you can have an all day pass for £3 too. There's one standard English pool table which is at the other end of the bar in it's own room. We generally play on that after giving in at Snooker!

Regards
Deano

Grapes, washington, red lion, brown bear dog and partridge

Have to add THE WASHINGTON to my list....great vibe, went last night actually for the first ever time, and I have lived in this town for 25 years!!! Can you believe that? Still places yet to discover after all this time......

Wig & Pen - Very nice bar and the food smells fantastic.
Bia Hoi - Nice place to chill.
Revo - Even tho it has gone down hill since it opened.
S1 - Its just so unbelivable cheap.

Thats about it,still got a few boozers to check out. Going down the Three Tuns sometime next week i think.

If anyones wanting a place to pool you should check out Top Spot snooker club on attercliffe. The last time i went in they had 3 very good UK pubs pool tables. Only cost £2 a hour as well.

Sounds good wheres attercliffe? It that far from the centre?

Yep thats what i mean, how i managed to spell it that wrong i dont know.

We will still give rylies a try even though its mostly yankie tables, hopefully might get on that english one.

I went to the washington earlier this year, thought it was pretty scatty looking but by the sounds of it its been done up?

I dunno , I drink JD there..

I need to try that stuff called 'Sailor.....something' , white rum and its in a weird bottle!

What's evryones favourite daytime boozer in the city centre.

I'm quite partial to the Three Tuns.....

I'm not allowed to drink during work time.
I used to go to The Sportsman for Saturday afternoon but I haven't done that for ages.

old monk used to be ok

Dulo is nice and comfy and Heini 5%...
Nursery Tavern used to be 99p a drink on Mondays, so that was nice
Red Lion (nr Mingdom) is nice in the summer


not sure need to research more..

Devonshire cat - great food, non smoking area, good clientele, fantastic real ales.

If you like the Devonshire Cat....The Bath Hotel hidden behind, west street, nice beer, some simple food, nice staff and is possiblt the worlds cleanest pub. Check the non smoking section, you feel guilty about wearing your shoes in.

equally Elf - the hallamshire on industry street just outside hillsborough - great view, great beer.

ok i know its not in the city centre but when i was at college it was The Richmond ..er.. at richmond. ah the memories.

Dev Cat or the Washington..

The Pump isn't so bad nowadays since they cleared the crap out :)

Cask and Cutler, despire looking shut from the outside has 8/9 guest ales on at any one time....also Fat Cats near Kelham Island is lovely

In my personal opinion my favourite bar has to be the Halcyon. The ambience is truly electrifying, where else can you sit till 1 AM sipping kir royals (champagne cocktails) listening to funkiest house tunes known to mankind, admiring the mint female bar staff! As soon as Nationwide sort out my second mortgage I will become a daily regular.

Do you agree?

Yes, always like Halcyon.

Especially after the early closing crowd have staggered home.

Yes, the bar staff are fit, but to be honest I've always found the place souless and generic, which I attribute to the prettyboy/girl crowd (no offence intended). Places like this are ten-a-penny, only for some reason Halcyon is ridiculously overpriced for drinks. I like the idea of having nights where anyone can come and spin a few records, but there are so many places you can listen to funky house it's pointless really.

Classic Rock Bar is the best bar in sheffield as far as I am concerned. Second after that is Nelson.
The Classic Rock bar is fantastic because it has 2 seperated rooms so you can have a band or musiscian in one room and a totally different one in the other. I have played in both rooms, in total I've played about 10 times.
Drinks are cheap, they have fantastic Guinness and real Ales on. Even Vodka is a good price. The staff are all great. The music is rocktastic.

It's a wonderful place.

And unfortunately it's closing down, probably to be replaced by flats.

The lescar is in a league of it's own - maybe because it's not trying - IMO it's easily the best pub (is that different to a bar??)

Oooooooh Lescar. Is Probe still on there?

Owler Bar, definitely.

What's probe? It sounds messy

Probe was on the last friday of every month as a headcharge warm up. I think it was the zogg people who put it on, not sure though, usually too battered to understand what was happening.

There's techno on saturdays there now I think - not sure eho puts it on though

Will have to investigate. Lescar is either really good or really **** for dj's, depending on the night. Not been on a saturday in ages though

I love the Lescar! The whole underground messiness of it is quality. It really has become my local away from home now as I know so many people who drink there. In fact I will be sipping a froth or two there tonight.

Hmmmm, best bar though? I must admit that Sheffield really does lack quality bars. I prefer the Halcyon to the Forum, but it can be a bit soulless at times. I like Muse when it's not too busy. Has a really nice ambience to it.

Karl usually plays some quality tunes on a Friday night. Not sure about Saturdays as I've not been in there on a saturday for ages.

Is Karl the bloke with the spiky tuft on his head?

Tufts - plural - looks like satan
Does he play fridays? It worries me how days blend together like this!

My post is too short to post so, I'm typing something random....erm...Wilderbeasts!!

Best pub in sheff is dog & partirige just behind west street. Not for music and women but for the beer and atmosphere. I only think this because i am a 60 year old in the body of a twenty year ld. I love sitting in there and supping a gallon of magnet with the lads before stumbling round to my girlfiends and taking care of the rest of my needs.

You must have been battered!!

PROBE was on every saturday for about 3 years at the lescar - you might be getting it mixed up with the NTA night at the Vine which was the last fri of the month.

Probe could be a mad night - especially the night after Zogg with the room packed and people dancing on the seats. But Zogg moved from fri to sat and Dil who put it on went away travelling for a few months and it ground to a halt.

But for anyoen after some nostalgia theres a one off Probe on Sat 30 April at the Lescar

I think the Wig & Pen has got to be one of Sheffield's best kept secrets !

Way too pricey for the overall package I'm afraid. It seems that the so-called cool crowd have moved on to pastures new and this bar is now falling foul to the chav crowd that makes up the majority of Sheffield's city centre. Such potential, but disappointing.

Classic rock bar for me although I have been naughty and not visited lately, must go down before it closes. When I am in town I like to go into Bai Hoi and Frog and Parrot, and of course the Devonshire cat on a sunday, although the last two are really pubs.

Even though the haycion is a great bar they really should update their wine list, at the moment its crap! They should bring in some good quality european wines instead of just having australian wines!!!!!!!b

I would like to second this, although The Dog is more of a pub than a bar. And it sells so much guinness that it is the best pint of guinness in sheffield.

My favourite bar is still the Classic Rock bar, and that is more of a bar than a pub.

I hate the Halcyon. grubby barfull of posers.

Forum is slightly better.

Tequilla and Takapuna are better.

Trippets is posers annon and pricey.

Cubana is nice and chilled but flawed.

Bar Coast :gag:

Har Har is ok. (dont eat there)

Best bar in Sheffield?

Tequila West Street hands down!!!

Yeah its a nice bar in the week, and full of quality ladies, but i'm afraid I don't rate it on weekends much!! sorry chap

I like Bia Hoi off West Street.

Comfy big sofas and cushions to crash on and apparently the food is nice in the daytime.

Takapuna bar is one of the best @ weekends. With 2 rooms it caters for most people.

Does any one have a opinion on Crystal?

Been in there once or twice from uni
Think J-Blaze was there :)

it's not a bad place but i don't rank it cos it didn't sell bitter :mad:

I see nobody has voted for the Ha ha bar. No surprise there then. Have you seen the price list for a burger?

I go with kkmohind - Dog & Partridge. What an incredible atmosphere, especially the JFK room, and an eclectic mix of customers.

Fabio_Pinot:

there was a thread last week regarding Lunch time eating venues and Crystal was noted there.....

I went to the open evening and thought it was great. Has to be one of the nicest bars in town at present. It has a good atmosphere, great big sofas for endless chatting/drinking/eating and doesnt appear to be of interest to Chav's!!!

TRY IT :clap: :clap: :clap:

Dove and Rainbow!

I think if you see this months Arena magazine only one bar in Sheffield is in the top 75 for Britain.

And it's certainly not the Halcyon.

the forrest on rutland rd is brilliant,friday n saturday the landlord sings(fab singer!sings at other pubs and clubs as well),sunday is a chill out night quiz bingo. but the atmosphere is brilliant esp sat nights.its always full and everyone is so friendly.the 2 joint landlords are lovely people they used to have the meadowstreet pub and most of their regulars have followed them. there's 18-80's ages in there i think but all enjoy it

I'm more of a pub kinda guy myself.

Not sure if it's the same as it used to be but i used to go in The Bankers Draft quite a bit, easy to catch bus home for me from there :cool:

Apart from that i'd have to say the Red Deer, good selection of ale and The Washington.

The Devonshire Cat's not bad but it's a tad noisy late on for someone like me who is a bit mutton jeff, it's spacious though, just right for meets and such :clap: :clap: :clap:

Though they could do with bigger tables

I prefer pubs - The washy and the banner cross are both nice - lately I ambeing drawn to the porter cottage...if I had to name a bar, nah scratch it, I don't like bars!

I'm an All Bar One man myself. I like the wines they serve and they do some fantastic jugs of Pimms cocktails in the summer. Just the ticket.

Whers the best place to go for a new clubber? Im 17 but could probably pass for 18. I especially like Niche music but alot of the clubs you have to be 21 now.

So whats the difference between a bar and a pub?
Or am I just being stupid.
They all serve alcohol .
Only difference i can see is bars tend to be over priced and the beer tends to be sh*t,
I personally like the Sportsman (sad i know)
Alot of the people in the Halcyon and some of the other bars on west st and division st are just soooooooooooooooooooo rude and unfriendly

Have to agree with JayJay on this one. Every time I have been dragged into Halcyon, Forum et al I have always found majority of people in there a bit too much up their own a**e for my liking.
Apologies to anyone this offends but I tend to say it as I see it.
P.s Can someone please tell me the definition of a chav? Is it age specific or is anyone eligable?

The difference between a pub and a bar lies in what they serve (cask ales = pub, bottles only = bar) and the percentage of people who can be seated at any one time. Price per outfit and Volume of music can also help determine which your in. Also note that the closer to the city centre the more likely it is your in a bar.

The halcyon and the forum are not really the sort of places i'd care to remember, always seemed fun, but too busy and average to write home about.

Favorite pubs/bars in sheffield at the moment are the green room, the washington, the red lion, and the springvale

I went in that new Crystal bar the other week. Naturally, the drinks were very overpriced. In my opinion, it's simply another "trendy bar by numbers" (The mixture of decor themes took postmodernism to the extreme - it was like Kelham Island meeting the Far East). I quite enjoyed my solitary pint in there, but I probably won't be returning in the near future.

There's nothing wrong with these kinds of bar persay, but I don't like the fact that they are popping up left, right and centre. I think there is room for trendy bars like this, alternative bars like the Dove and Rainbow, commercial chains with low prices like Wetherspoons and good old-fashioned public houses that sell traditional ale.

We need an eccelectic mix of pubs and bars; something for everyone. As long as the pubs of Sheffield don't all become clones of each other, I will continue to enjoy visiting a wide selcetion of them. And getting drunk.

not living in sheff for a long while, im basing my faves on well over 10 years ago :)

My faves back in the day were :-
The wap
the yorkshiremans
the frog and parrot (i still have all 3 certificates for drinking roger and out :P)
the hallamshire hotel
and that one near rare and racy, just off the end, i always forget the name of that one

nelson...it has dj lez who was djing there before i was born...he's my all time fave rocker and he's still kickin!!

classic rock bar...it does exactly what it says on the can.

frog and parrot...it's a real pub, it's right next to my shop, and catches me out every time i intend to go home early and do stuff...er yeah...

Do you agree?

Sorry Fabio_Pinot, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I nearly fell off my chair when I read your description of the Halcion.

It's a decent enough bar, but 'truly electrifying'? I would say more generic and dull - the same as the majority of other bars in Sheffield. There's really nothing different or exciting about it at all.

I think Sheffield's bars are due a massive overhaul. I used to live in Northampton, which is a really ****ting little town down south with a generally poor social scene, but the bars were much better - loads of themed places. There was one that was done up like a medieval castle inside and the toilets are dungeons, and another with an enormous tropical fish tank in the centre of the bar with minature sharks swimming in it. Nottingham is similar, and I'm sure loads of other UK cities have good bars too.

But Sheffield? Ambient? Funky? Sorry but I beg to differ!

Sheffield is full of soulless bars like Halcyon and Crystal. Even student haunts like Lescar and Porter Cottage aren't all that either.

Unfortunately, more and more dull bars keep popping up throughout Sheffield, with very little to seperate them from the bar next door.

Sorry Chap I beg to differ about Northampton!, have you not been to lux, its a quality bar also theres fat cats, and lets not forget the black bottom club.

i agree with pinot actually. the halcyon bar oozes class and quality.

My fav is the Lions Lair,a really nice plesant pub with a decent crowd.:thumbsup:

Mine has to be stonehouse

It's an underated pub.

What is it you like about The Stonehouse?

Thanks Mr Halcyon! But it doesn't really though, does it now.

I'm not even sure there is a good bar in Sheffield. Sola, maybe, Crystal, perhaps.

Well said Green back. Sola's probably the best. But hey, we don't drink champagne cocktails do we?

At least we all know where to avoid the classy ooziest people.

Top three pubs - Cannon, Hen & Chickens and the Market Taven and a very commendable fourth.... the Alexandra :clap: :suspect:

personally, I can not tolerate any bar longer then 2 shots and a vodka and tonic, bars are meant to be hopped along, work your way down west street and that way you'll not get disappointed. As for pubs I think often your local is the best, friendly faces and no need for a taxi home.

Ruskins (opposite the Crucible & Lyceum) serves the best pint of Caffreys (IMO) in Sheffield.

It also happens to be my fav city centre bar, having not been out in "town" for about 3 years I discovered this place on a night out at the theatre. It's a great to have a city centre venue that caters for nice people, rather than the glut of bottle bars that have taken over in recent times.

Washington has it on draught.

I like to go somewhere where the music isn't so loud you can't even hear yourself shout! Though I do love good music and live bands it's nice to have it at a level where you can hear it but it isn't totally deafening.
