The Norfolk Arms pub in the centre of Sheffield by the Ibis Hotel and not far from the train station is a friendly, traditional pub with regulars that make you welcome. It's walkable to the ground, or the bar staff may order a taxi while you leave your car there. Also near to the station is the Globe, which welcomes home and away fans as long as there is no singing.  Also near to the station is 'The Howard' that is frequented by away fans.

The pubs near to the ground such as the, 'Sheaf House', 'Railway Hotel', the 'Golden Lion' and on Bramall Lane; 'The Railway' & 'Cricketers' are for home fans only. Otherwise alcohol is available inside the ground.
