Will Larter left this review about The Draughtsman Alehouse
They still have a screen on the bar counter from Covid days, but this is used to change the point of service to the right hand edge, while pump clips can be observed through the perspex, though for those of us with an obsession, this makes photographing them very tricky. My half of The Kernel Half Brick 4.7% (a red rye ale) was enjoyable, though drinking out of plastic makes it difficult to judge the quality of the beer (possibly NBSS 3.5). I find it hard to warm to this bar, and it certainly isn't the Sheffield Tap. With more than 40 minutes between trains I would always go to the Little Plough, but with a 25 minute connection for a Sheffield train from platform 3b, it makes sense to call in here.

Supposed to be open but they called time at 1.15 on a Sunday afternoon?? Which meant it was take-out only, which I politely declined.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Draughtsman Alehouse
Former station buffet housed in a small square room with attractive tiling on the lower third of the side walls and a compact counter at the far end. Cleverly named, best appreciated with the landlord glimpsing at the engineering drawings of steam engines as he pours your pint. Also has a small 'outdoor' area under the Platform 3b canopy, although you will need a plastic 'glass' if you plan to sit out there. With three handpumps in use, I found Abbeydale's Pine Range, Neepsend Alphita (£3.60) and Made in the Shade from Track. Well worth a visit if changing trains at Doncaster.
