Sheffield pubs

[LlcoolJ]

Touched a raw nerve there, obviously. Lol. In the end, it's about what you want your match-day experience to be...especially after a 200-mile journey. I've lived in the area for 50 years, so it's based on experience not bigotry. There are good people everywhere, and not all Crucians are bad people, but it's about playing the percentages. In my view Brighton fans are less likely to get aggro in Wadsley than in Hillsborough, that's all.

I've lived in Sheffield for 25 years and I concur that Hillsborough wont exactly give you a good / proper impression of Sheffield or it's great pubs.

If you like Indian food then check out The Bhaji Shop - Thali Cafe at Kelham Island. They moved relatively recently from near me as they were doing so well they needed bigger premises. Not been to the new place yet but the old one was excellent.

Blimey what were you drinking? I've never paid £4 for a pint in Shoreham let alone a fiver. Mind you I can see the Crabtree charging a bit for Kronenbourg 1664 or whatever strongish lager they sell

 

[Dessie]

Sheffield Tap used to have a strict "no football shirt" policy on matchdays - might be worth bearing in mind for those intending visiting

Out of interest Dessie does the Supertram run from Sheffield Station to Leppings Lane direct or will I have to change en route?

You can go direct from the station to Hillsborough. Takes about 25 mins.

To Hillsborough corner, yes. But if you want to get to the ground, you'll need to switch to a yellow route tram, which you can do after travelling into town. I always change at Cathedral but anytime before the routes diverge is fine

Sorry, yes you're right. Depending on timing I'd also consider walking up through town and hitting a couple of pubs round Division St before getting the yellow route tram from West Street direct to the Leppings Lane stop.

No probs. Anyone taking the option of drinking in the West Street area, Dev Cat, Bath Hotel & Red Lion are good options for the real ale fans (plus there's a Brew Dog on Division Street). Great Guinness is available in the Grapes (just off West Street) & Fagan's on Broad Lane - which is on the way to Kelham Island.

Ah, you are based up near Chesterfield Road, the aforementioned Bhaji shop is a client of mine.
