Old Sheffield pubs from the past gone for ever


Recommended Posts

I'm going back further, see if you can put the new name to some of these pubs. We used to meet up in the Red Lion, behind the City Hall, across to the Wharncliffe up to the Saddle, along to the West Street Hotel into the Hallamshire, across to the Mail Coach over to the Bee Hive Down to the Admiral Nelson along to The Prince of Wales into the Wheatsheaf and then possibly the Albert, that's if the Teddy Boys were not throwing the tables and chairs out of the windows, I was a Mod. We would go down to the Mulberry Tavern on Charles Street and across to the Roebuck Tavern. If we could stand up after that lot we would go down to the Lacarno for a dance or be thrown out by the Staff for being D & D. Good old days, bring em back!!!:D:D:D

 

I bet I can remember escorting you out of the Locarno as I worked the doors at that period with Black Joe, Alan Killby & co.

Can anyone remember the Mustard Seed pub at the back of the old council buildings in town I think it went when they made the egg box.

 

Are u sure about the name Shogun? I've never heard of that one and there's no record of it.

Wasn't the Mustard Seed a cafe at the side of the Peace Gardens?

Yes I might have got the name confused it was on Norfolk street at the back of the town hall a big old building they had a disco night on Fridays, it went in the 70s when they did the egg box you used to walk through the peace gardens and it was there in front of you.

I can remember seeing you (double after all those drinks) throwing us out or escorting, as you so courteously put it, usually helped me to catch the last bus home, so you did me a favour. Thanks Jack I owe you one!! At least there was no drugs or very little about in those days. Not like the idiots of today. :cool:

Is Joe still around,? I always found him OK, couldnt make head or tale of Kilby though.

Yes apparently Joe is still around he has a job as a caretaker at some tennis club up Eccelsall, there was a roomer going about that he had kick the bucket but it was found to be not true, there was a thread on here about him a bit ago, I once had an argument with him in the Neather Edge hotel and he lifted me up by my nipples and pushed me back wards out of the place and I am 6foot5 tall.
