Drove through area called Pittsmore / Burngreave early one morning, nobody around. Saw a lot of really grand Victorian houses & buildings. Looks interesting. Anyone know of any interesting places to vist or pubs or clubs to go to?

Try Donkeymans on spittall hill. It's intresting in there!

Donkeymans. Odd name. Is that a pub or clubor what?

Pitsmoor and Burngreve are best visited late at night. They have a vey active street life round there. Take lots of cash with you, and don't be shy with it. It'll be really appreciated.

donkey mans is a blues club famous for geting shot m8 it is not a good area to be in a nite but its up to you m8 if you want to take your life in your hands

So! It sounds like a really vibrant & exciting area, right? I may visit it this festive season & take my woman with me. Does the blues club have a late bar. It might be good chilling out in the early hours listening to blues & chatting to the locals in a friendly way.

If your sound with them they are usually good with you.

Well ive been going out around pitsmoor for years the pubs are sound. As for donkey mans we tend too get there round about 12 and stay there till around 5am its a top night out. By the way the music in donkey mans is usally reggae ragga and hip hop.:thumbsup:

Hello Pitsmoor

me and a friend are trying to visit every pub in sheffield and one area we haven't been to yet is Pitsmoor.

We normally just go into a pub have a quick pint then leave, are we likely to get hassled going in the pubs or when we are between venues?

Which are the better pubs and which do you have to watch your backs in?

id recommend THE ROCK on rock street top pub used to go in there all the time:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

cheers panda, i had heard that wasn't too bad

the highway in pitsmoor is great when they have techno/trance nights on, but i would say that :P

The East House is my old local. Still a good pub.

How's that going? How long do you think it'll take?

Me and some mates had the same idea the other night. We were a bit under the influence at the time though, so I'm not sure how viable it'd be... :)

It taking a long time as we worked out that there are roughly 500 pubs in sheffield. We've currently 267 and are bagging newbies at a rate of 10-15 per month. We reckon that we'll finish sometime in the summer of 2006.

Its a hard challenge but definitely fulfilling and we've been in some very interesting places so far with lots more no doubt to come.

Pubs in Pitsmoor, mmm, what about the Furnival! Would i go in there as a stranger!, The Rock etc!

I actually think youd be very welcomed in the furnival as its been shut for a good 5 years and is now a church.:D

Cheers, might try it, bet the spirits are cheap! :)
