Not sure about most of them apart from Berlins and Yorkshire Grey

 

Berlins - Closed down then became 'Purple', then closed down again and has now since become 'Fuel' the gay club which is quite popular

 

Yorkshire Grey - Has been knocked down recently.

 

Not sure about the rest. I do miss Berlins though :(

isnt millionaires now orchis?

do you mean the club on carver street at the west street end of the road?

 

the hallamshire, was that the one on the corner of west street and rockingham street? i always get confused on this one- its either brb or west street live- apparently (not proven by me) brb do a mean pizza, but the blues night (as proven by me) at west street live is pretty good.

 

as for the beehive- i think that became the something and firkin- but is now s1. the beehive is a bit before my arrival in sheffield (1997), but im sure thats what the folks at work have told me before.

 

mind you- that completely different to what PT has just said, and im a bit drunk- so shes probably more right than i am! lol

 

hope that helps,

This is a little trip down memory lane. :)

 

The Hallamshire was further down; the one on the corner of Rockingham Street was originally called the West Street, before it became an 80s bar.

 

The first new trendy bar/pub to open was The Saddle (now called the Bedroom?), next to the Co-op Bank on West Street - in around 1994. Things changed a lot over the next ten years.
