starmag   10 #1 Posted November 22, 2005 we're planning an all dayer on Saturday and really want to see the dark night arrive while sitting round an open fire, drinking beer and being silly, yet warm at the same time. can anyone recommend a pub with such a fire? electric fires and plasma screens need not apply.....

Bilge   34 #6 Posted November 22, 2005 The Sportsman on Walkley Bank Rd, Walkley, S6 had a cracking fire last time I went (which was about this time last year). Proper coal, proper logs - lovely. Decent beer and not too chintzy a pub for an all-dayer. Though a bit more 'local' than a country pub-type place so not everyone's cup of tea.  Fox House Inn is at: Hathersage Road, Longshaw, S11. Past Dore and out into the countryside. Never been myself so not sure if it's worth the trek out.  Also you could go in a bookshop and have a peep in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide under South Yorks, Sheffield - those which have 'real fires' have a little symbol. If anyone's got one to hand they could post them here... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

ambient   10 #9 Posted November 22, 2005 The Red Deer just off Mappin Street is lovely with a nice roaring fire :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bilge   34 #10 Posted November 22, 2005 Not a real fire in the Red Deer though is it? Thought it was a living flame gas job in the bar side - but can't quite remember to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
