Sheffield Tap, Sheffield

There was a time when a station pub had the feel of a last-chance saloon. Not any more! The Sheffield Tap is smart, clean & comfortable with a good selection of excellent beer, much from Thornbridge a few miles down the tracks, but also featuring renowned breweries from around the land. Given the location, you could either include it at the start or end of your Sheffield pub-crawl: I'd recommend the former, so that you can really appreciate the place.

This pub is situated on the station platform but this entrance was closed and a doorman was outside the street entrance. Once inside there are three rooms and i had a drink in the main bar which was quite busy at 10.20 in the morning. There were 11 real ales on with 4 Thornbridge beers at the far end of the bar,i had a drink of Peak Ales Bakewell best and this was a really nice drink. The beers that i noted were Peak Ales DPA and Thorbridge Jaipur,Lord Marples and Pivini. I quite enjoyed my drink in here while waiting for a train to Dronfield. Note: This pub opens at 10.00 on Saturday Pub visited 24/3/2012
