About The Boston Arms
The Boston Arms is a pub at 676 Chesterfield Rd in Sheffield that runs as a café by day and turns into a bar as the afternoon goes on. Coffee and pastries come first, followed by a changing lineup of craft beers and real ales, local and otherwise. The building is split into three rooms, with two downstairs and one upstairs. Pizzas are on the menu, including a meat feast. Sunday brings a weekly pub quiz with free pizza, capped at 7 teams. A cask club meets on Mondays and Night Choir runs on Thursdays. The pub is open daily, and dogs are welcome.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the beer, praising a changing lineup of craft beers and ales and well kept pints, with one diner calling a Cloudwater Summer Pale Ale very refreshing alongside a London porter. Close behind are the pizzas, with the meat feast described as very tasty and big enough to feed four, and cocktails that one reviewer calls spectacular. Several describe a cosy, friendly pub split into three rooms with different vibes, welcoming bar staff, and a welcome for dogs. Others come by day for coffee and pastries and a spot to send emails, and one notes the new Pellizco Mexican food. Reviewers also mention Cask club on Mondays and Night Choir on Thursdays. Quiz night draws the most attention, and one reviewer says it is so busy that booking is needed. The Sunday quiz comes with free pizza for teams.

“An amazing selection of drinks (their cocktails especially are spectacular), yummy food, and the friendliest bar staff that you will ever find. Special shout out for their weekly pub quiz. Only a max of 7 teams with lots of engaging rounds and free pizza.”

“The BA is my go to spot in Woodseats. Such a nice atmosphere. So cosy with nice low lighting and friendly bar staff and managers. I love the fact that the pub is split into three rooms with slightly different vibes. Great beers on offer and completely dog friendly. I don't have a dog but I love meeting all the dogs that come along. They do lovely pizzas and cocktails too. I really appreciate the effort they put into their establishment. They often try to go the extra mile when it's a special night. I would highly recommend a visit, I haven't found many places like it!”

“We had a visit to The Boston Arms as we have family in Woodseats. What a brilliant little place! Great beer selection (craft is where it's at!), cosy atmosphere (brilliant for us who are NeuroSpicy) and dog friendly! Absolutely loved it and will be back in again when we can throw the kids at the family for a few hours!”
