Hi mate two things

Rotherham - city?
Rotherham - decent??????????????????????????????

Put up what you are looking for mate music wise and try to point you in right direction. Friday is the busier night in the town centre.

I work in town at a venue but i'll refrain from advising it until you let me know what you are after

If you like live music have a look at the blues bar situated in the town centre

Hopefully someone will advise you where to go as I work in Rotherham (not in the centre) and most of the staff I work with avoid it at the weekends,lots of idiots out looking for trouble.

Shame to see just negative comments about Rotherham. True, for us Gay clubbers, there is little to occupy us there at all; however, you will be pleased to note that there is a new Gay Night called 'SWEET' starting on Sunday 1st March, at the Onyx Rooms (Formerly Milanos).

Another bar I would also recommend for its live rock music and open attitude, is SNAFU, nearby.

I go out in rotherham quite alot, friday is a better nite, just head for the centre and do the rounds, all the bars a close together and liquid is great for a cheesey end to the nite.
I have never had any trouble in rotherham...always found it to be a great laugh

Snafu and you are sorted

if after food woudl probably say go to the Charters (is that still a rock pub?) near the markets

avoid any of the other town centre pubs

Vault is chav ridden bassline hell hole, best thing to do with that place is get it full and then lock the doors, in 5 years time open the doors and they would still be chanting you wot, you wot in their fake henry loyd (sp) jumpers bought for 2quid off the market

when i go to rotherham i usually start in a bar called No. 10 and then head up to Snafu a bit later. both of these bars have rock bands on at the weekend (google them to see what's going on)

nowhere else is worth going to in rotherham town centre if (like me) you like rock/metal music

I always though FUBAR was supposed to be a good place for rock too? (Underneath High House?) - though have to say I've not been in yet myself.

Have to admit - SNAFU is a good choice, live bands on a Friday, cheap beer and it's open until around 2. I've had a great time when I've been there.
