Brewdog
Brewdog’s Sheffield branch, in keeping with the brewery’s mantra, focuses on flavoursome upfront hop forward beers which is showcased via its 15 to 20 rotating keg lines. A glass walled keg chilling room; a viewing wonder. Now serves pizza.

The Crow
This pub still may show as The Old Crown Inn on Scotland Street but the team behind The Rutland have now taken on the pub and renamed the snug pub and B&B to The Crow. Find a tasty keg and cask selection, often the odd Belgian beer and sour style gem on the bar.

Dog & Partridge
A cosy and snug free house pub with a selection of cask and keg, always a local stalwart like Abbeydale or Bradfield on the hand-pull. A new pub food menu with an Irish focus. 
 

Hop Hideout
A specialist little beer gem which used to be tucked away opposite The Broadfield pub (beershop and tasting room) along Abbeydale Road. The venue has moved to a new site in the city centre of Sheffield, in Kommune foodhall, which is based in the old Co-Op building. The beer shop usually holds over 200 beers, 25 ciders and has 4 keg taps offering draught beer to enjoy drinking in or to take out on growler fills. Belgian beer and wild ale specialists. Known for hosting regular ‘meet the brewer’ sessions and tastings in their intimate beery space. Friendly and knowledge staff. 

Industry Taproom
Just a short walk away from The Rutland pub and handily on the way to The Beer Engine too (or vice versa, depending which way you walk!). Over 20 keg taps, with a good amount Lost Industry brews and lots of choice across beer styles. Check social media for opening hours. A friendly family run taproom.

The Old Shoe
Newly launched craft beer, cider and artisan wine bar in the city centre. Housed in Orchard Square opposite a food hall, Sheffield Plate, which you can order food to eat in at the bar, yum! There’s over 15 keg lines, and a heap of goodies in the fridges too.

Public
A nationally award-winning small yet perfectly formed cocktail bar housed in an underground ex-toilet block stunningly refurbished – hence the name! Beer offering rotates – mainly the odd craft canned beer. This place is an ideal city centre stop-off for the glorious cocktails before you head back on the beers though. Seasonal small plates usually offered, check social media for menu updates.

Red Deer
A constantly rotating beer range, 300 ales poured over the last two years, board games (Kerplunk) and a powerful Sunday roast all add up to make this an attractive and cosy beer hang out.

Rutland Arms

rutland
Eight hand-pulled ales rotate across local and regional microbreweries such as Bristol stalwarts Arbor and Leeds’ Anthology. Big on crafty keg beer; drop by to sample Vault City, Pastore, The Kernel and more. Food menu swerves from chip butties to inventive more gourmet offerings and plenty of vegan options.

Sheffield Tap
An awe-inspiring brewpub establishment accommodated in a converted Edwardian refreshment room at the train station. The beer selection is also awe-some – 200+ bottles, 12 continental swing handled taps (including Czech beer Bernard unfiltered and dark) and 11 traditional cask hand pulls including three house brew regulars from Tapped Brew Co.

The Three Tuns
The Three Tuns is an intriguing flatiron architectural shaped pub. Favourites on the cask lines include Abbeydale, Acorn Brewery and Titanic. 

Triple Point Brewery
Launched in March 2016 as Sentinel this brewhouse and taproom housed in a converted industrial unit (near BBC Radio Sheffield and within walking distance from the central train station) brought a new angle to the Sheffield beer scene. Now under new ownership and renamed as Triple Point Brewery, the focus is still on their brewery fresh beer. They also offer great vegan food options from residents the Twisted Burger Co. Big outside seating area. 

Vocation & Co, Sheffield
This Division Street bar has recently changed hands to become a Vocation & Co tap in the city. Fine a full range of Vocation beers on keg and cask (offering a regular gluten free option), plus a dedicated can/bottle fridge. The food selection leans towards burgers and bites.
