Visited The Bessemer on a Friday afternoon while in Sheffield for a Friday night football match, found the pub ok, it's more of a bar then pub but a good selection of drinks and the food looked good even though I did'nt eat there. Got talking to a group of local's, friendly enough when I told them I'm a Birmingham City supporter, I imagine this place get's really busy at weekend evenings.

Stonegate's best impression of a Wetherspoons, even down to having the toilets in the basement, but with added TV screens (everywhere), music and a pool table. Also rather more random decor and arty lighting than the average Spoons. Unfortunately the cask ales were off due to line cleaning (and staff shortages) - bad planning but at least they were cleaning them. It should have been Doom Bar and two guests, which looked like brews from Bradfield and Thornbridge judging by the clips. It seems to have special music evenings (soul etc.) and I probably wouldn't want to be in on a Saturday night but it was peaceful enough on a quiet weekday.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Bessemer

Large, city-centre Stonegate pub with various seating / dining areas in a rather odd layout. The ceiling is higher above the bar counter and off to the left where there is enough space for a little mezzanine. However, window space is limited and its all a bit gloomy despite some feature lighting. Anonymous, semi-modern furniture in all parts, with the most interesting feature being a display about the local steelmaking and cutlery industries. Standard menu. With three of the five handpumps in use, serving Doom Bar, Hobgoblin and Abbeydale's Deception (£2.97 with 10% Camra discount).
