My first visit here, and I was surprised to find Mr Croxford in here having a pint whilst waiting for a train. The refurbishment of these premises is absolutely marvellous. I returned for a quick half before catching my train home, and noticed that in the two hours that I had been away two more handpumps had been installed on the bar.

We actually went here twice. First on the sunday to try a few beers upon arrival at Sheffield and then the next morning to buy a few bottles from their extensive list before heading home. The bar sits on platform 1 of Sheffield Station - so it is approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes from St Pancras. Well worth a day jolly! Of course the other appeal is that it's the Thornbridge Tap. No less than 8 Thornbridge beers on draught and 6 imported keg lagers (I liked the hoppy Duvel Green). Then behind the bar are a string of cold cabinets with 160 bottled beers from around the world. This is a retrospective entry and my memory prevents me from recalling all the beers. I'm sure we tried more than 3! Mind you we did go to bottled beers too. Jo made some notes so if I can get them I will add later.

Justifiably popular on a late Saturday afternoon, not a spare seat to be had on arrival although some groups left during my visit.

Well patronised early on a Saturday evening. Plenty of bar staff so good service despite being busy.
