Blue Ball in Sheffield

Excellent friendly service and lovely homely food. Reasonably priced and sizeable portions. Nice, cosy, welcoming.

6 of us partook of the Sunday Carvery today and I must say we were very impressed by the amount of food and Quality on offer can definitely recommend it the meat is so tender and the vegetables cooked to perfection 👌

Good food and service. Very quiet for a Friday afternoon.

Came here with no booking on a Saturday evening, gorgeous food and quick service from super friendly staff. Booked in for a Sunday carvery for the day after, food stunning again and everyone we spoke to were lovely and friendly Can’t recommend more, great environment and atmosphere

so friendly service staff and landlord amazing for a night xxxx

Called in with no booking after a long walk round local area for Sunday carvery. Made very welcome and a table prepared for the 4 of us. Good choice of drinks/beer on offer. We all opted for the 2 meat option. Great value at £13.50 pp. Meats delicious and tender....beef, pork(crackling) or gammon. Lovely well cooked veg, yorkers and scrummy cauliflower cheese. Gravy delicious! A great 'pub' serving fab food at reasonable prices ....can't get any better!

Enjoyed everything overall but a few two many bought in iteams for me

Popped in for lunch on Wednesday. Ordered two "fresh" orange juice, bottled orange arrived thick with ice. Steak pie with chips: streak was tender and swimming in a delicious gravy, chips big and bold, pastry top on pie left a bit to be desired. Scampi and chips with tartare sauce and a wedge of lemon: excellent. Apple pie and ice cream: had been reheated in microwave so the pastry was limp and pastey. Bill came to £28.50, all in all a great lunch, so good we booked for the Sunday Carvery.

Had a fabulous time at there music makes memories event. Food excellent, great singer and staff couldn't be more helpful. They even surprised my best friend with a birthday cake for her 94th birthday.

I'm been in the pub ... after the time of food order, but the man in the pub made me a favour... extra dish for me Very appreciated 😊👍 safe me off dead 😍

Nice, friendly pub with good honest pub grub

Went for carvery today, been told by a few people it’s nice but I didn’t expect it to be as good as it was the meat was as tender as it could be 10/10 highly recommended and always service with a smile 😊

Tony and staff where so helpful with me being in a wheelchair and welcoming. Food was great.

We didn't have food only pre holiday drinks lovely place

A first visit for me, it lunchtimeso it was quiet. .Very clean inside. The food was generous in portions, and the service was very good and attentive. It's a place I would certainly visit again.

What a lovely place for lunch! Fish and chips was AMAZING.My fellow diners has the steak pies which were equally fantastic. Great value for money and staff are lovely. Highly recommended 😊

This is the second time that I've been here and yet again I couldn't eat all of the food . They really pile the plates high , good selection of ales and lagers on tap .

Have been a few times and have had a wonderful experience each time! Amazing food and excellent service! We tried the vegetarian chilli and the southern fried chicken burger today and both were delicious! Would highly recommend 💯

Fantastic menu, delicious food, with super friendly staff

Excellent food and great staff the cavery is to die for !

Glad to see it reopened. Got food order slightly wrong but all good otherwise. Friendly manager.

Lovely meal very good service pleasant ladies serving

Called in after a dog walk around the local dam. Sunday carvery only. Had beef and gammon,the gammon was succulent.

Too expensive, food was cold, one slice of beef, and the gammon was just crumbs.We all said we will not return. Much cheaper at Meadow Farm, and larger plates.

Nice pub with nice food and service. We had 2 meals at lunch time for £15. The ‘pie’ was a dish of meat and gravy with a pasty lid, which was not stuck to the dish: it was nice, but challenging to eat. The scampi and chips was nice. The order was a little muddled, the dish with peas came with a salad, the dish with no sides came with peas. The staff were all young and friendly.

Nice food, but not value for money, not enough chips and over priced

Fab food ( sunday roast) very friendly hosts, will certainly visit again

It was fairly quiet when we went on a Thursday lunchtime. I had the homemade steak pie. Delicious thick gravy. Delicious pie. Served really hot. This is the first time we've been since Blue Ball reopened. We will be going back shortly and I will be having the pie again. We will also be trying the Sunday lunch carvery in the future.

First time here and found it a lovely pub. Food was very nice especially if you use the lunchtime menu as you save money aswell. Staff here were very attentive and nice but my only concern was the time from ordering to actually getting your food but that could have been because they were busy but not sure if that was the cause.. Give it a try is my advice.

Great pub with good food and good atmosphere.

Lovely, homemade food. The pie was great.

We decided to visit here for Sunday Carvery based on the recent good reviews after it reopened. Booked in advance and arrived to be met by one of the staff who showed us straight to our table. Table was in an awkward corner next to the toilets and quite small for 3 people. The staff member walked off and no explanation was given about the menu, or whether we needed to order at the bar so after a while of just sitting there my Husband went straight to the bar to order drinks and he also ordered the carvery. We got our food and overall it was pretty good, the beef was a little dry but the lamb and gammon were delicious. Veg was slightly overcooked but that's just our personal preference. The plates weren't massive and we eat pretty quickly so we were done within 20mins. Eventually somebody came to clear our plates and we were asked if we wanted dessert so I said "yes, I'll have a look please" thinking there might be a menu but the staff member just walked away without saying anything. We finished our drinks and still no sign of a menu, the staff were all at the front but we were tucked away at the back so we just left feeling a little underwhelmed. So food was good but the service let it down which is a shame.

We had a joint retirement/ leaving do here. Tony and his staff were fabulous. Nothing too much, no number too high. Really tasty buffet, plenty of food. 5 stars are not enough would give more of there were more. Well done to you all and we hope you have continued success at your fairly new venture.

Nice pub only live up road from the pub but unfortunately not much vegetarian food and no vegan food and no salad where you can add extra to the salad not hard to do a salad . Unfortunately my daughter vegan nothing on menu for her disiponting. We can go to other pub where they have separate vegan and vegetarian menu . Nice but no vegan or not many vegetarian options.

Had a fantastic meal with friends, too much on plate, I had fish and chips it even came with a slice of bread and butter,one of my friends had sausage and mash which they said was fab, and another had hunters chicken which was good too, they have a wide selection of real ales as well as all the other drinks you would expect, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the pub is very clean, I would recommend this pub to go for a meal or just a drink

Nice to see it has opened again and is now serving food again visited this weekend for Sunday dinner excellent food and service will definitely be back again 👍

Came in thinking nice pub. Wouldn't serve me a drink 2 mins after last orders bell. Which was before 11. Served someone else at the bar a few minutes later. Then another 5 mins after that. Just came in with my partner for a quick pint as she recently moved into the area. Not quite sure what I did wrong.

Lovely food, staff were fab! Will definitely call again, thank you!

Enjoyed food, staff wonderful and even had a couple of games of pool.

Newly opened and I must say they have right. Keep it up

Brilliant service friendly staff and atmosphere. Food very nice. Throughly enjoyed my experience here. Would definitely recommend.

Really enjoyed our family meal out. Food was excellent, hot, substantial and most of all, very tasty. You can clearly tell it was homemade and not pre packed and microwaved like you get in most pub chains. Any pub that places Hendersons on every table alongside the salt and pepper is on to a winner in my opinion. Will be visiting again, without question.

Service with a smile, home cooked food at its finest and a lovely family atmosphere at lunch time! Thank you all at the Blue Ball!

Had a drink here really friendly nice pub

Only 2 weeks since this place reopened. This is our first visit, the first of many. Very welcoming people and the atmosphere is relaxed with a good ambience. Fine selection of ales, lagers, shots etc. Highly recommend place to visit.

Reyt nice, deffo reccomend the fish and chips with hallumi fries.

Not been able to visit since before covid but hopefully I'll be back soon. Lovely pub with great food and great price, friendly staff and good atmosphere. Beautiful setting too, can't really ask for much more

Food of low standard and the atmosphere is not friendly or welcoming

2 o'clock people's eating, sorry chef's no ingredients left, he's not been to get it, bar staff said.

First meal in the Ball for a long time, it was lovely. The pies are amazing 😁 the staff were really friendly and accomadated all the chikdren food requests. Def will be back

What sort of pub/restaurant doesn’t open the kitchen on a bank holiday waste of a journey.

Food was fresh and homemade ,will be returning soon

Not very welcoming and the beer was a little rough

Limited menu, but good, very reasonably priced food and drink. Very nice place.

I have met my friend here before but this time we wernt very impressed my friend asked for the vegiterian options which neither were available and there were a couple of other options that were not available the menu is not very varied the food was nice but probably wont visit again

Awful service, over an hour 20 min wait for terrible food that was undercooked and pizzas that are burnt!! Do not recommend!! Terrible customer service and bad attitudes.

Under the new management this village pub is on its way back 2 it's former glory ! Well done Nigel and Heather keep it up.

We had Sunday lunch the food wax excellent ad the staff was friendly and efficient. We will definitely be going again. We'll done Heather and Nigel xx

Friendly staff, and the new pizza menu is to die for. Dog friendly and pour a good beer. Thanks again!

We had a great time at Olivia's 21st Birthday. The venue was very good and the staff were very helpful

Nice pub and really lovely staff

Great atmosphere and staff are very attentive. Food is amazing and home made too

What a lovely place, I recommend this to all, foods fabulous and the live entertainment is brilliant I'd rate it higher if I could

Had my uncl alans wake here yesterday the staff were so attentive xx thanks guys

Recently refurbished! Looks really good! Nice enthusiastic young staff!!

The pub is under new management and opened for the first time since the start of the pandemic on Sunday 1st November and had to shut 3 days later for the second lockdown. Gotta feel for the landlord and landlady, however they did not put themselves out to introduce themselves to their customers. The 2 Young bar stewards were acting immaturely and need to act more responsibly.

Book a table for 3.30 we were still waiting at 3.45 to seated even though tables had become available,moor effort was placed on teenagers who stank of canobis and clearly of the face, came in after us and got a table and there food whilst we where still waiting , safe to say we will nor are family be going back,

Really good value for 2 X lunch for £7.

No real ale and ran out of Guinness.

Lovely staff very welcoming and food to die for Lovely snug/tap room. Realy enjoyable 😊👌👍

Tastefully decorated, excellent inexpensive food, good service

Good food and good service ,place looks a lot better for refurbishment

Great carvery value for your money

Possibly the worst carvery I have had there

Good food, good service, good parking. What more could you ask?

2 meals for £7 is a joke - might be a good idea to check on how your close competitors do the same thing with good value and substantially more food. Won't be doing that again.

Great carvery lunch, looks like they have a good selection of local beers (most were empty on my visit hence the 4*)

The sunday carvery is lovely. Friendly staff.

Had a really nice vegetarian nut roast sunday carvery. Nut roast was really tasty, firm and moist. All the veg was cooked perfect and was also tasty. We had to Pre order the nut roast which wasn't a problem and was brought to our table along with presumably our own vegetarian gravy. My only real criticism would be the layout of the pub as the dining area is the front of the pub where customers enter the bar area and our table was next to the door so everytime someone entered we got an earful of traffic noise and a draught, I personally would have thought it better to have it to the right side of the pub, extending into the so called tap room as this would have created a more private and secluded area from the rest of the pub.

Quiet, warm and friendly atmosphere, well decorated and clean. Great selection of cask ales.. only 1 rose wine but a very nice one. The food was very good and very reasonably priced. Friendly staff, quick to serve and polite.

Nice staff, venue and food. On a weekend it can be a madhouse full of kids hammering around. Something to bear in mind.

Love this pub, great food, really helpful staff 😁 just updating we hadn't been for a few months , what a big transformation the pub looks fantastic we went 9th November.. food fantastic.. staff very friendly.. what a friendly pub, really enjoyed it , 😁👍👍👍

Comfortable Atmosphere, great food and friendly Staff. Thursday night Karaoke was a bonus too!

Great staff, food and atmosphere

Good food at a reasonable price.

Been for a carvery had meat and potato pie gorgeous xxx

Beautiful pub and grub great atmosphere

Exceptional, lovely place and much improved.

Great surroundings and staff are very friendly. Although not personally had food here yet, the plates of food I saw going past looked very nice and I cannot wait to try the food myself 🖒

A well priced pub that does lovely carveries, it might be the salty gravy ;) but you won't go home hungry, as can help yourself to veg. Down to earth pub, think they are having a refurb at the moment so might be even better.

Quiet as it was lunchtime, but the staff are friendly and good choice of drinks in a nice location.

Food was ok, but its like eating in a canteen.

The food and service in this pub is excellent and great value for money. It's also very convenient for the buses if you don't have a car but there's a large car park if you have.

A very long time since I last visited, however there have been many alterations and the pub is not as warm and welcoming as it was. The two young ladies were very polite and pleasant. Having been "in the trade" things are perhaps more noticeable, and whilst the interior of the pub was spotless, the exterior left a great deal to be desired. An honest opinion, without which problems cannot be addressed, but definately not serious enough to prevent me from coming back. Regards.

Always good for and the staff are amazing. Never had a bad night here Dave is cracking 😀🍸🍹🍺🍻🥂

A fine and wonderful establishment.

Great place, great staff, great company.
