An incredible bar; the back room is the Sheffield drinking-scene’s answer to the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles and isn’t to be missed; resplendent with chandeliers, seating reminiscent of the House of Lords (or perhaps the Midland Railway), brewing-equipment and unsurprisingly- mirrors. There’s a vast array of beer on tap. It is a little pricey and can be busy, but you get what you pay for I suppose. Certainly the nicest and warmest place to wait for a train on the otherwise culturally desolate Sheffield station.
Well what a nice place to change trains.
Good selection of beers on hand pump and Keg. Going to be something for everyone.
Well almost not seen any fosters in here. LOL
Seems quite friendly, even passengers chatting about the beer.
Always a great way to start any trip to Sheffield. Great range of beers including those they brew on site.
I really enjoyed my visit here, the bar was old but full character. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. This comes in handy when navigating the large selection of beers and ciders. If your waiting for a train the definitely stop for a visit.

An on platform station brewpub with a great selection of beers and a very sympathetically restored bar with Grecian architecture which creates a special atmosphere.
Coming through Sheffield quite a lot recently, it’s always a pleasure to stop off at this lovely Good Beer Guide listed venue for an hour or two whilst waiting for connecting trains. There are quite a few compartments/joining rooms to the back and side of the bar, so it’s easy to find a quiet spot to wait time, although on Saturdays it does tend to get busy.
The beers - usually around 10 casks at peak times, and the same amount in keg form, plus ciders, and an extensive bottles and can range - are served in great condition and cover a wide range of styles from pale ales to stouts to sours and other more interesting concoctions.
Thornbridge is typically represented in the line up, as are the operators, Tapped Brew Co., but guest breweries are plentiful and the line up rotates often. Staff are friendly and warn you if the price of a pint is significantly more than you would normally expect to pay (which is possible with some of the more limited edition or hop forward beers). Generally, I found the cask ales to be £4.50-£5.50/pint, but the keg could be up to £8 for a 5% abv.
Absolutely recommended to stop off for a refreshing beverage if you are in Sheffield or changing trains there.

Large station pub in Sheffield. Plenty of beers to choose from, including many foreign ones. Prices can be high. Plenty of seating inside (And it's needed, as it gets very busy during peak hours), plus a number of covered tables on the outside (towards the city). Not the most charming pub to be sure, but it can be attractive for adventurous drinkers.

Excellent pub on Platform 1b of Sheffield Station. Ten cask beers - and 1 cider - on handpump when I visited including a mild and a stout. Was the 1st class refreshment room in days of yore. Big garden with a few tables and chairs to the rear. The pub also hosts a microbrewery "Tapped Brew Co."
This was a great pub to visit before catching my train, with a throwback design including the counter and pub logo. The staff were friendly and served me quick; I had a refreshing pint of Berry Cider! Prices were a bit much, although the seating and table were up to standards.
Great station pub in a beautiful building. Excellent selection of craft beers and sold at decent prices. Friendly staff too. I highly recommend this pub should you ever go to Sheffield.
Great selection of craft/real ale basically in Sheffield train station.
I think they have big turn over of beer,so know your not getting a stale pint.
Not cheapest place for pint,but definitely sell some seriously strong ale.
Olde English traditional pub with over 20 beers on tap. Actually adjacent to the train station. One extra ace from the road and another onto the station.
At least 2 beers brewed here at the adjacent Tapped Brew Co. More beers in anyone place I have visited in Sheffield!!!
Friendly wait staff, will provide samples when requested. Terrific select of beverages. Including tea & coffee.
No food here.
All on one level, so accessible by wheelchair.

Had to give this place a try given its reputation as one of the go to pubs in Sheffield. Very convenient as it is connected to the Sheffield train station - so paid a visit while waiting for a train to Lincoln. Long bar is impressive and pub definitely has a good selection of ales and bitters. Sadly I only had time to try two drinks. One was good and the other beer brewed in the microbrewery in pub did not work for me. Pork pie was filling. Deserves a longer visit.
Lovely different kind of place, right by the railway. With crystal chandeliers, and lovely walls and seating. A must try if you like real ale, or interesting architecture. Very, very Highly recommend.
Last visited when this was an outlet for Thornbridge Brewery. ( Great brewery.) It now has a great selection from around the country. Being a Sussex boy I chose one from my home county. Bedlam brewery in Lewes. Home of Harvey's brewery and one of my favourite places in the world. Also Black Storm from North Shields to follow. Popular bar on Sheffield station; not just for passing travelers. Outdoor seating to front.
What a gem of a place, situated on the train station platform but also a central rear entrance too... Many happy faces, suitcases and locals, very welcoming staff and great selection and price...
If your ever traveling near here or visiting Sheffield I recommend here... Wow beautiful old place.
We both love this pub, right next to the train station. Great selection of ale, stout, and craft beer. Lovely space too!
An absolutely cracking pub for a railway station (indeed for anywhere)! Great select of beers, local and fantastic imported beers including the fantastic Czech Bernard whic is very hard to find in the UK. Worth a visit when passing though, or of you just fancy a few pints.
