  “Covid-19 update April 2021 Outdoor drinking only. Check in with the NHS app or they will take down your details. There's hand sanitiser. Find a free table. They will take your order. It's still only 2.50 a pint. My 1st time in a UK pub this year. My closest pub. There's a clear sign at the entrance on a table saying please wait to be shown to a table. There's also hand sanitiser on the table. The friendly barmaid took my name and phone number and pointed me to a table, saying come to the bar when I'm ready to order. There are perspex screens at the bar. Surprised (nicely) that a pint of their own beers is still only £2.50 a pint :-) I will be back since they care about craft beer and my safety! Nice craft beer place with 3 of their own beers on tap (although 1 beer wasn't available). No wifi. A beer fridge as well. A pint of their own beer was a reasonable 2.50”

  “Only previously visited the Hallcross to watch football and try the real ales on offer but Saturday was the first time for the beer festival. Upon arriving my friend and I were given our wristbands and list of ales then taken to the backroom which was also new to me. Thought the service was faultless and also remained throughout even with the changing of staff in the time we were there both friendly and polite. Didn't get the chance to sample any of the nicely sounding pizzas but will hopefully at some point in the future.”

  “Great day on the crisis buster £20 deal. Well worth it. Highly recommended. Didn't have the pizza but it looked a bit poor but you carnt complain on price. Some of spirits was just poured into glass rather than measurements so drastically under and mixed with ok mixers. I did like the cans of steller and bottles of corona.”

  “Walked my dog here, had a drink and tasty warm pork scratchings which were delicious. Staff were friendly n brought water for the dog, nothing too much trouble, was a festive, happy vibe. Well worth a visit!”

  “Madge decided it was time to leave the market. After a "minging" Spoons we hit this pub. Good real ale destination. A bit rowdy with footie on the TV.on the big plus side was a choice of three real ales by Stocks brewery..based here. Three guests as well. Some front seating on the busy crossroads. Madge ordered the Stocks bitter. A sweet malty brew and very pleasant. She washed it down with hot pork scratchings..yum.(Fried pig skins / pork crackling for those who have never heard of it.) Nice white Pinot. Do not be put off by the outside. Doncaster getting a bit wild at 14.50 on a Summer Saturday.”

  “Amazing food from no clucks at the bar. The best burger you'll ever eat whether you're vegan or not this is a must. The fries are to die for. Deserve more than 5 stars. Delicious”

  “If you took this pub and it's Friday / Sat night acts and placed it in many other areas of the UK it would be rammed all night. Having moved to the area recently this was the first town centre pub I'd visited. There are not many pubs which have not been knocked about and turned into a spoons \ Yates etc type pub, although the Hallcross has seen some work it retains a lot of it's rustic charm, it boasts one of the tallest bars I've come across in my life! The pub has a number of TV's showing sports, which is good. It serves a good range of ales lagers and the usual pub drinks, the local beers are all quite good,they do have bar snacks in the form of pre packaged sandwiches etc so it's not a pub for foodies! The real charm to this pub is the Friday and Sat entertainment... I have seen some very good local talent on the Friday night open Mike sessions I have also seen some fantastic tribute bands and recently a folk night which was probably one of the most entertaining and enjoyable nights I've had for a long time! The only downside to the pub is the lack of customers, which surprises me, I've been to pubs which load an extra £1 to pints in order to pay for the acts, at the Hallcross, you can get CHEAPER beers in the form of Grolsch or Tetleys for only £2.00 a pint! I feel the venue should advertise better as they have everything going for them but people don't seem to know what they are doing... If you are looking for an entertaining evening in Doncaster, you ought to check out this pub, it's a good honest pub with a friendly relaxed atmosphere with a gig room where some seriously good acts play!”
