Our Take

Sheffield institution serving the city's creatives and students for over 30 years without ever losing the plot. The Devonshire Street bar runs 2-for-1 cocktail deals every day (bar Saturdays), turns excellent local Yorkshire produce into a food menu worth ordering, and maintains an outdoor terrace that catches afternoon sun beautifully. The stripped-back exposed brick space and hanging plants create an atmosphere where afternoon drinking feels appropriately bohemian. Coffee bar by day, proper bar by evening and weekends — the transition is seamless, and the relaxed atmosphere welcomes both modes without judgment. Dog-friendly, student-friendly, and welcoming to everyone who appreciates good value without corporate blandness. Sheffield's most reliably excellent all-day drinking destination.
