Bucking Fastard left this review about Rise @ The Hallamshire

A very traditional exterior with glazed tiling and featuring the name of the former brewery owner Greaves and Co,the interior has been largely stripped out to form a modern bar.There is a seating section to the left of the front door with canteen type tables and chairs while the main body of the pub has several high tables and chairs and a few sofas.The serving bar on the right hand wall only dispenses kegged lagers and beers from the usual suspects but Staropramen is available.There is a pool table to the rear and a large external courtyard with more seating,metal this time.There is a modern cooking area open for all to see by the bar with a pizza oven and a cook busily preparing lunchtime food.That was the purpose of my visit and I though the pub grub style food was well cooked and very reasonably priced,there were even a choice of fresh salads.The bar service was unfailingly polite and the musak wasn't oppressive.

I would expect the night time experience to be very different ,there is a large mixing desk placed infront of an unused fireplace and the space for vertical drinking must come in handy given the proximity of other bars,clubs and the University of Sheffield.
A good lunchtime venue when the bar was quiet for a quick bite,this place needs a younger reviewer than me to comment on the bar culture at night in order to achieve an accurate overall picture.
