The first pub in Sheffield with a video jukebox? Watching Wham, Spandau Ballet, Human League etc! Used to go to the Mulberry for the last drinks before going over to the Roxy! Where did you used to drink - upstairs or downstairs?

Is the Mulberry still actually open? Last time I drove past it looked kinda closed? I know the Roxy is closed. It looks so sad - a shambolic ghost of its former self. If those walls could only talk!!!

If anyone used to go in the Mulberry or the Roxy in the '80's, my nickname was Pierre. Perhaps you remember me? Then again, perhaps it was all just a dream...!

The Mullberry has been shut for nearly a year. It seemed to shut and reopen a lot before its demise....it has got 'To Let' signs up at the mo I think

May know you, me and my brother used to go in a lot at weekends esp Saturday lunch. The Mulberry went down the pan in the early 90's. Shame it wasn't too bad in the 80's

Yeah, I remember Mick and his wife. We used to get "afters" on a Friday and Saturday night. It was great coz it let the queue for Roxy's go down before we popped across the road.

Me and my friends went in the Mulberry Tavern mostly on a Sunday night..it was usually our first port of call. Downstairs mainly..the music was fab..good memories.

Oh yes, the famous Mulberry video jukebox.

Duran Duran - Girls on Film anyone :heyhey:

Video jukebox was memorable for anything by The Bangles, we always used to stop talking for a "Bangles break":heyhey:

funny how big Micks name keeps coming up, I understand he lives in derbyshire somewhere these days sometimes comes into eat on Ecclesall Road. What a guy!

the mulberry was great in the eighties. video jukebox was amazing, you were right we just used to stare at it in the days we thought madonna was fit! me and my mates used to meet for the first one in there, fridays 10 to 8, not quarter to or five to!

I remember watching Dave Bowies video "Lets Dance" on that machine and wondering where he got the tan and straight teeth from. He used to be all pale and interesting.

yes remember that bowie video being on all the time. lots of stuff for the girls at that time, spandau, duran, wham (if they knew then what we know now!) remember the mulberry being full of big hair and long mullets. pity it sounds like its closed now, sheffield seems to be full of trendy soulless bars now.

Sometimes we used to meet in the mulberry, I don't know why, well yeah, the video screen was the big pull.The lager was bloody awful in there, so we might nip across to the Claymore for one before doing the old blue bell, dove and rainbow, stonehouse and then making our merry way up West street!!!

Mulberry, then Daisy/Geisha bar, Stonehouse, the gladstone, golden ball, wig and pen, dove and rainbow, silks, complete angler and then cairo jax.... for some bizarre reason, the surrey opposite the lyceum was a favourite too, ah happy days, wish they were back!!
