A good night out in Sheffield?

[*_ash_*]

You appear to want the moon on a stick.

 

Have you tried the Cricket Inn at Dore. 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:)

 

I assumed 'Sheffield' meant near 'town'. If we can go 4 or 5 miles out, then good choice

Closer to town, there is the York, Thyme Cafe, Milestone and the Wick. All good for food and drink.

 

The Botanist opens soon, that might be worth a visit.

Yeah Broomhill has some good choices, also for the OP a quick bus or taxi journey to plenty of eating places too. I like the tavern best, but I don't think it does all the fancy drinks and food.

 

The York has a lot of choices and food and whatnot, my only gripe with it is it's one of these echo-ey places, and I can't hear people.

 

I like Broomhill for a night out, I go once a year.

There's a new micropub at Broomhill, dunno what ales it sells, or wines for that matter, I frequent the Broomhill Tav.

 

Thyme Cafe is just across the road, and La Vaca is a few doors away.

I'd suggest a meal and a few drinks in the Broadfield, then mosey on down to Heeley for a few pints in the Brothers Arms and the Tram Shed. I think all 3 of those would fit the bill (although the Broadfield is the only one that serves food).

Ah yes I forgot about that new place. Will try it on my annual trip up there in a couple of months.

What about Hen and Chickens followed by the Big Gun ? ......

 

Made me laugh Perhaps finished off with Bankers Draft and Penny Black!

It looked busy last Friday night. Prefer a seat and the fizzy lager in the Tav myself, but each to their own I say.

Why not ?

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?

 

IMHO you are looking at completely separate entities. I've yet to find anywhere that does a decent proper real ale range, including some whopping IPAs that also does restaurant standard food. I've been to places that do the beer, but just do grubby food and pizzas (brewpuppy type places) and I've been to places that pretend to do beer but are just a gastropub (The Milestone.....and no, I don't want my wine topping up).

 

I think you are seeking something that doesn't and cannot exist.
