4 of us went in had 4 pints of OBB £6. Cant get 2 pints of London Pride in my local in South London for that. Good boozer and decent service

This pub is full of session drinkers and drunks, and that's why I love it. Nipped in for a few pints on Tuesday and the pub was packed in the middle after the noon, the average each of each punter being at least 50 years old. Some top banter with Dave the landlord and other regulars, I felt at home here. The OBB has reached a staggering £1.50 a pint - at least this means you don't have to mess around carrying too much shrapnel. Pubs like this make me love the North.

You can have any drink you like, so long as it's Sam Smiths. It's a lovely pub inside, but the limited choice of drinks means I have to move on after one pint.

What a great proper pub in the heart of Sheffield - very nice pints of Sam Smiths Old Brewery Bitter - not had any of that for years.
Great to see a bar without Carling, Forster, Stella etc. etc. Ice-cold extra large beer fonts adorning the bar but instead Sam Smiths own larger on sale. So even if you are a die-hard "Larger Boy" give it a try you may discover some taste!
Well worth a visit and great value too!

Archetypal Sam Smiths pub right in the centre of town, near the Winter Gardens and Crucible Theatre- the only traditional pub in this area. Simply but traditionally furnished with two main rooms off a central bar. Real fireplace but nothing lit on my visit. OBB as ever the only real ale, not bad but uninpsiring- not that I'm arguing at £1.39. Heaving with a mixed crowd, theatre visitors and old fellows and a few young uns. A decent pub but nothing remarkable.
