theimposter Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Anybody got any advice. Due to hit these Friday daytime. Heard the Miners AKA 'The Wragg'? is the best... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartempion Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 It's kind of old-fashioned (like all Stocksbridge pubs actually). It's dead in the daytime but gets really busy on a Friday night so it's clearly popular - not sure that necessarily means it's good. Maybe just that there's limited choice..?. Another one which I've noticed seems to fill up at the weekend is The Friendship on the main road. I wouldn't describe it as 'friendly' but to be honest they're all pretty much the same unless you know people in them aren't they? Personally I prefer The Castle at Bolsterstone. It's where the Bolsterstone male voice choir go after their rehearsals if that gives you any idea about the ambience! It's really quiet (even when it's full) and not too smoky. I suppose it really depends what you want in a pub. Personally I go to pubs to have a quiet chat with friends. You can't really do that in the Wragg on a Friday night but if you just want to get legless in a place that's full of people then it's perfect! Have fun!

Cardinal Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I believe the Stocksbridge pubs lack a certain something - not least since 'Goodfellas' shut down!! (that's a joke by the way) You could always try the 'Silver Fox' (I think it was/is) - particularly if you like heavy rock!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartempion Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Goodfellows is now a really good Thai restaurant on one side and a Chinese buffet place on the other Never been to the Chinese bit but I'd recommend the Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
