DerbyTup Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I assume you know about the Sheffield Tap? It's literally part of the station and has one of the best range of beers in Sheffield - very well kept as well. I don't know if they do food though. The Rutland is another good ale pub nearby - not tried the food there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't do food (apart from paninis I think?) so maybe not much use for the OP. But I agree, I'd go there, have a bag of chilli crisps, enjoy the beer and worry about food later.

quisquose Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 There's The Showroom as well. They do nice grub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilge Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 There's The Showroom as well. They do nice grub. But they don't do decent beer. There is a sole handpump that is dusted down for docfest or some other event every now and then, but unfortunately they haven't got much idea how to do cask beer or any commitment to it, so it's seldom worth bothering anyway. So usually the beer choice is expensive gassy lager, Guinness or nasty 'nitrokeg' bitter. In fancy metal pumps. It's a shame, as I like the place a lot and still drink there fairly often anyway. Other independent cinemas manage to have 2 or 3 proper beers so why not here? Too much trouble for the management is my guess. Just one would do - and would help keep it fresh.

neeeeeeeeeek Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Rutland is your best bet near the station and it's is good for beer but it's expensive. 4quid for a pint of Green Goblin cider! Also the food is better than chain pub food but never quite as nice as it sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilge Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 What's the Howard like these days? I try it every few years to see if it's improved. Considering its location and the look of the building from the outside it should be an obvious choice, but it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the food is better than chain pub food but never quite as nice as it sounds. Drink the proper cider and its £3.50 a pint. Beer varies from about £2.40 a pint up to about £3.30 depending on ABV. Most of the food is good - freshly cooked by a proper chef using decent ingredients, some of the specials can disapoint if you don't know what to expect - usual advise, ask the staff before ordering.
