Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the pints, with a visitor in town for a gig calling the Guinness a cracking pint, alongside praise for Stella, Peroni, John Smith's bitter and Baby Guinness shots. Close behind is the lively atmosphere, with karaoke, punters singing along to Rod Stewart, bingo, a pub quiz and sport on the TV. Several describe friendly bar staff and an eclectic mix of customers with plenty of character, one calling the place rough round the edges but sound as a pound. A newcomer to Sheffield says everyone made them welcome and they have found their new local. The one clear complaint comes from a visitor who asked to try one of the two ales on offer before buying, was refused, and left without ordering. Another reviewer calls it an old fashioned pub, not in a sophisticated part of town. A Spurs fan up for the match arrived to find karaoke going on and everyone enjoying themselves.

“Can't comment with regards to atmosphere or food as it was rather a quick visit as when arrived asked if any ales were on sale was told there were 2. I asked to try a little as I had not tried before but was told No. We would of had a pint of lager or Guinness if hadn't liked but instead left. We do try the Ales if we like we have one, after this we then review with the brewery.”

“Little hidden gem, lovely pub with sports on TV and reasonable prices. Excellent service.”

“I was in town for a gig and had an hour to kill before the doors opened. Music was blasting. Rod Stewart seemed to be a favourite. Punters singing along and jigging about. Not my usual kind of pub but great to see people enjoying themselves. An absolute cracking pint of Guinness. Top marks to the bar staff.”
- Mark Jones
“Came up to Sheffield for the Spurs game with two mates yesterday and found ourselves in the Norfolk Arms. What a great pub - great atmosphere, friendly,karaoke going on and everyone enjoying themselves - how a pub should be. Plus great value Peroni and Baby Guiness shots. Shame it's not in London - I'd be visiting every night”
- Axolotl S
“Terribly rude, racist staff- tattoed arms, tallish woman, with long dark hair. Went to the bathroom before ordering and got kicked out of the bathroom. Environment felt very hostile and unsafe. Would not recommend for anyone muslim, young, black or alternative. Genuinely feared for my safety, will not be a place I will go into or encourage others to go in and I never order there again. I felt scared and.thst is not what i want anyone else to ever feel.”
