DerbyTup Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 So I'm looking for a good night out in Sheffield - what would you suggest? I like a bar with a very well kept pint of real ale. A wide choice preferably because I like a nice strong IPA, 6% or more. I don't drink more than 2 pints usually (just don't like the volume and hearing it swish about in my belly). Please don't direct me to pubs that have fake real ale in, like Black Sheep, Deuchars, DoomBar, HobGoblin, Landlord, London Pride and such garbage from the big Brewers. The missus likes her wine. Once again she likes a nice choice. Not just one "red", one "white" and one "rose" if no name or vintage or even a clue which country it's from. We may want to eat. If so, a nice range of different types of food would be great. If a specialist restaurant (Indian/Italian/ French/Thai/ Chinese) then that's also good. We also don't want to dine in grubby surroundings with ****** up rowdy folk. We want to dress up a bit and feel special! Anywhere spring to mind? Maybe we have to visit a few different places to tick all boxes? Suggestions?
crookedspire Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 What about Hen and Chickens followed by the Big Gun ? ......
PeteM01 Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Or perhaps the Milestone, Broadfield or the York?

My suggestion would to be a little less specific - or stay in and buy the beer you like, and the wine your wife likes, and order a curry from a takeaway you like. You should be sound then.
DerbyTup Posted September 12, 2016 Author Posted September 12, 2016 Very good! Yes you make a good point. Although I can't drink Hand pulled beer at home so easily. But accepting all that, where can we go to get nice drinks and good food then, if not all in the same place? Point is, in most cities I can get this, but I struggle in Sheffield for some reason?

The group that has the wig and pen and milestone are good, also the lads that have the 3 tuns, punch bowl and closed shop. Lads that have fox and duck and doctors orders also good. All do real ale and food. If you google the names you'll find locations and none are particularly far apart.
jake Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Or perhaps the Milestone, Broadfield or the York? agreed.. probably your best bets
Guest makapaka Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Sorry I dont think the fox and duck does food in thinking about it.
*_ash_* Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Looking at your preference, I would say go down Heeley. Couple of good pubs there with Sheaf and Brothers, and a few places just up the road that are often recommended as good food. edit: or perhaps Kelham Island depending on what side of town you are at.

It has a painfully expensive and extensive wine list, lots of real ales and the usual over-priced chips in a bucket stuff from Richard Smith. I think you'd love it:)
