The Bankers Draft in Sheffield

Good service food was nice can’t understand how staff let people come in and sit there with no food or drink it’s happened a few time while I’ve popped in

Very rare to get a poor meal at Wetherspoons but the breakfast I had here last Saturday (04/01/2025) was disappointing to say the least, and it took a while to be served but I'll blame tight fisted management for that rather than the staff. Beans were cold, egg was cold and hard, bacon portion was more like it had been carved off the body of a mouse, such was its meagre size. The sausage was dry, in fact the only things nearly enjoyable were the hash brown and the toast. I ordered the meal at 11:30 so well within the breakfast schedule and I gathered that it was pre prepared and left on a tray somewhere, just waiting for some mug to shell out the £4.99 for it.

Lots of drugs users hanging around had my coat stolen when when to toilet the back doors are locked so u have no option but to stand outside front were drugged congregate the pub itself is nice the atmosphere upstairs it lovely downstairs is very busy and loud the food is standard the alcohol is cheep so I like to come regulary could do with some security on doors to be honest

Love the building and it's original features. It's never changed in like 20yrs and that's the best bit. It's so nice to go into a pub that retains its own stamp. Without following every other pub trends / following the flock. It was full of people enjoying themselves. And the atmosphere felt amazing. Felt like the old days when I first started going in there at the age of 16

Great pub ,service and touch slow at times

Just a nice weather spoons, plenty of seats, quick service, happy 😊

Still a great watering hole , occasional commotion outside but apart from that still a favourite.

Such a pity that it seems so impossible to post that it is about time that the real ale choice was updated. Been the same for several hours now but some are not available and others have not been added so they cannot be ordered at table.

Good service from staff but bit of a mix up with another table. The waitress was very polite and apologised. She looked like she was working extremely hard. Pancakes were moderately warm but syrup was cold.

THE RAWSON SPRINGS PUB HILLSBOROUGH IS MILES MILES MILES BETTER THAN THE BANKERS DRAFT THE FOOD WAS STIFF COLD ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING I GOT A BAD STOMACH THE RUNS I WAS ALL SICK I AM SURE YOU GAVE ME FOOD POSIONING STUART MANCHESTER MASSIVE UNITED FAN AT LEAST THE FOOD IN THE RAWSON SPRINGS IS RED HOT AND I DON'T GET FOOD POSIONING IT WAS THAT STEAK

Rough diamond. Excellent staff and beers. Expect some characters though.

It's a Wetherspoons. Cheap beer and quite a few drunks!

Went for breakfast which was cheap and quality .before we went back to London.

I have tea here once a week when I'm working in the city centre. Upstairs at the back is the best place to eat. Not the best Spoons in Sheff but the most convenient location for me. Food is usually good. Service does vary, it depends heavily on how busy it is. High turnover of staff so some don't seem interested sometimes but this is the exception.

Saturday early evening, super busy, very noisy, no free tables. Staff struggling to keep up with clearing them. Obvious dealing going on as well as selling stolen goods to customers. Other customer's eating their own food, using pub electricity to charge their mobility scooter n spitting on the table. Even though we only expected cheap n cheerful it wasn't the most pleasant experience unfortunately.

Busy Town pub good selection of of cheap drinks. Food service ok was a little disappointed with the food.

Buena opción para el desayuno temprano, así que elija esta cuchara. Muy bonito edificio y buen interior. Un montón de asientos interiores y exteriores. No muy limpio, ya que la mayoría de las mesas estaban sucias. De todos modos pedimos a través de la aplicación y nos dieron nuestro desayuno. Comida siempre decente y precios razonables. Opciones para verdura. Rellena el té o el café. Lo que no me gustó fue mucha gente borracha a la hora del desayuno y fumadores externos.

Rubbish food service. 55 minutes to get our food, and with no communication about how busy they were. The first meal arrived, the next 2 were almost 10 minutes later. Ruined what should have been a nice time with our daughter.

I meet friends regular here for food/drink as central place to meet. Always sit up stairs & always nice.

I don't know how to rate the atmosphere it was Darby day but the only reason for down grading the food low on beans not good on a breakfast

Excellent service, great atmosphere

Your typical Whetherspoons. Nothing amazing, but cheep, cheerful and efficient.

Nice spoons friendly staff, but the toilets upstairs and upstairs again suggest you leave for the toilet half hour before you think you need it

Possibly one of the worst Wetherspoons ive been in. Ruled by wild customers. Staff are good customers are positively wild. For context. Its a tuesday evening 😂

Went for breakfast, sat upstairs was nice and quiet staff were great very good service and polite

Waited a long time for our meals usually very quick but was ok

Cheapest pub I've been in fir a long time and the beer was really good 👍

Proper pub,cheap beer and food got some characters.

We sat upstairs which was a nice seating area. Had drinks which we ordered on the app and we delivered in good time. I was still a little shocked when I STILL had to walk upstairs to the toilet 😂

Well what can you say it's a witherspoon so its cheap beer!

I didn't ear so can't say what food like, service was quick staff was smiling, so all good.👍🏼😁

Good option for early breakfast so choose this Wetherspoon. Very nice building and good interior. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Not very clean as most of tables were dirty. Anyhow we ordered via app and got our breakfast. Always decent food and reasonable prices. Options for veggie. Refill tea or coffee. What i didn’t like a lot of drunk people at breakfast time and outside smokers.

Quieter than the other wetherspoons in town, quick service. Ordered the millionaire shortbread dessert, but no choc sauce! Drinks were good and reasonably priced

Well run. Nice and clean. No trouble. Cheap breakfast.

Full of people with hard lives and nowhere to go. Would'nt bring my family here.

Don't know what all the complaints are about. Come here weekly. Yes there are a few down and outs but you never feel unsafe here. The staff and food is far better than some reviews suggest

I got asked by 3 different crackheads if I had any change in the space of 1 hour. The fire alarm then went off and we was all asked to leave. What a shambolic experience. The coke sniffing room was also full of people urinating which was extremely unhygienic won’t be returning soon

Nice good Wetherspoons, does what it says on the tin I guess, there's a reason for their success. Somehow I find the food here the best from all Wetherspoons in Sheffield

Law is that someone 16 or 17 can drink a pint with there meal if accompanied by an adult but the blonde women decided to take the drink and refuse to refund it. Wrong ens

De pie en el bar y una señora le dice a un miembro del personal que su pequeño ha estado enfermo en el baño. El miembro del personal le dijo a la mujer que lo limpiara con toallas de mano 🤔 ni siquiera una fregona. Mucha gente hubiera dejado a los enfermos en el suelo y no hubieran dicho nada.

Dinner with my teenage son. Food is ok and it was quick and cheap.

There is a gobby cow with dark hair who acts like she is a manager, walking around, listening to her walkie talkie. Her language is vile, towards staff and customers. Embarrassing.

Cheep drinks before the clubs. Always full to the brim though so good luck getting served quickly

Only scored 4 stars for service as ordered drinks that were only available from downstairs & took ages to come.

It's a wetherspoons. What do you expect?

average food but not bad for the price.

Not a bad place. Ordered via the app and received food before our drinks.

Wetherspoons is the best around for good value drinks. However Sheffield City centre has deteriorated dramatically over recent years with undesirables plaguing the streets around this venue, which I must state is NO fault of Wetherspoons!! However I do feel it's only fair to make others aware.

A lovely city center pub that really cares about customers n very kind staff x

It's got worse and I didn't think it could staff no manners please and thank dont cost anything its shocking no return for me

Staff always mope-ing about don't look like they want to be there very slow not enthusiastic at all. Atmosphere OK, alot of drug users in and out toilets exc and selling knock off stuff from shops lol...... cheap drinks though food average but what do you expect for price still ide say on most items of menu good value for money.

The services we got was OK but was on edge as all the time as drug users was walking in and out selling what ever they add I'm in a wheelchair I went to disabled toilet it was not a nice the wax pee all over seat and floor I couldn't use the toilet so we ended up leaving after that so I could go to toilet

It is a weatherspoons pub in a nice old building in a central city location. Food wasn't anything special but cheap and edible and refuelled the family for a wander about town.

Noisy football pub downstairs but upstairs is far better and up near the windows on the next level up is even better. Food is reasonable, beer is excellent and coffee is great

Nice pub, we used it for our meals instead of the overpriced food at our hotel, Staff were great, really pleasant and polite, if you are going to eat then use the first floor, the ground floor is more the regulars. Just need to stop the smokers congregating in the door ways.

¡Oh, Dios mío...! ¡Experiencia horrible, comida no comestible, personal gruñón y necesita lavarse las manos antes de entrar en los baños! ¡Este lugar es horrible! Lleno de drogadictos y alcohólicos. ¡Nunca había olido tan mal los baños! ¡Tuve que aferrarme a él en lugar de usarlos! ¡Vil!

Usual Wetherspoons bar flies, other than this it's not bad

Be much better if all the chavs scruffs and wanna be gangsters were told to take off their baseball caps. Looked like most of the homeless were living in here. Awful place. Least the bar staff were pleasant enough

Impressed with the cheap drinks - £1.99 a pint

very rough place felt very nervous with the kind of customers that was in the pub that day

Can't argue with under a tenner for 5 pints.

Had a nice breakfast in here with a pint of crafted beer

Staff professional and good service.

Good wetherspoons for a decent pint 👌🏼

Hash browns were raw in the middle, after waiting 40 minutes for the breakfast to come. Shocking service, will not be eating here again.

Excellent Guiness and curry with good service. No sport on tv though.

Typical Wetherspoons , decent size and always full of characters 😂

No locks on inner and outer doors of disabled toilets. Looked generally run down. Improved since my last visit. staff are now friendlier and more welcoming. Wouldn't mind eating here nowadays.

Meals were nice the lady that served us was nice and i think they needed more staff on shift as they was a half an hour delay to get my drinks and 45 minutes for my food we ordered The bbq chicken melt 2 large mixed grills 2 Pepsis 1 with 1 without ice 1 monster energy ultra The bill came to £42.95 just for 3 people

I recommend. Large selection of beers. Good food

Typical cheap and cheerful 'spoons pub. Nowt wrong with that. You know what you're getting and a complaint I had was dealt with quickly and efficiently.

Great shoplifter presence round the back 🤞🫡

For a supposedly down market pub with lots of the 'not doing so wells' in and around, we found brilliant table service and surprisingly wonderful burger and small-plate dishes. We'll done, 'Engine Room' and staff. 👍🏻

Called for lunch and coffee , staff really friendly, food is fresh , very cheap, great afternoon.

Have been in many Wetherspoons with my family over the years but this has to be the roughest. Having lived in Sheffield 20yrs ago, I thought it would be nice to visit again. Wetherspoons is always good for a cheap dinner but leaving with my wife and 10yr old daughter at 8pm on a Sunday, a group of drunk men shouting very lewd inappropriate rude comments. No door staff to control the clientele. Will never be going in there again and left with a lesser impression of the city I loved.

Typical wetherspoons, fast service and free entertainment outside 🤣

Went to Lunch with my Daughter, was hoping for a bit of a Sunday Roast but they don't serve them 😕 I had the Raman Bowl was tasty but the Noodles were more like Italian Spaghetti then Chinese Noodles 🍜 My Daughter had 3 dishes for £14.95, the Chicken Bites are Juicy and Delicious 😋

Friendly and full of locals drinking beer for breakfast! Value you cannot beat though and a great place for a full breakfast and coffee to start the day.

Enter at your own risk. Nah its ok. Just normally a meeting place as its cheap before moving up west street

Food was exceptionally good for a Wetherspoons, some decent ales also. Service good.

Yet another Wetherspoons where food and drink is available at very reasonable prices. We didn't eat here, just had a drink, but there are other public house available in and around the area.

Waited 20 minutes for 2 drinks. DO NOT GO HERE

Your average wetherspoons. Good value

Cheap beer, service is quick and the staff are polite, good natured and really helpful. It's not for the faint hearted in there, bang in the middle if the city centre so attracts a lot of characters. Super convenient location open early till late. The food is great for the price. Lots of space, comfy areas, smoking area, phone charging, crayons for kids, disabled access is decent (disabled toilet could do with checking more often but regular toilets are fine. Large NPC( ?) type car park behind the pub, brilliant bus and tram links.

Lovely pub had great atmosphere 😃

Food cold complained still not to weatherspoons standards

Very good Wetherspoons. Good Abbott

Budget friendly, but food is not so healthy and fresh Depends on what you order

Alot of orders not received by our table that people sent via the app

Sorry but food has gone down the pan such small portions had steak pie which was as big as a bun frozen mash which i dont mind but the portion was a childs which looked silly on the size of the plate.do proper portions and leave the drink off.wont be goin back in the near future.

Cheap qs can use camra card to get 50p of a pint of real ale mon to wed

It's a Spoons, they are like Marmite. I love em. We were rushed for time, it was a Saturday afternoon in Sheffield city centre, I ordered on the app, food arrived within 10 minutes. We ended with plenty of time. If we'd have gone elsewhere we'd undoubtedly have been late.

Standards for a spoons great staff, general weatherspoons food,reyt vibe at weekend

This place has dodgy reputation so I've been told. I finally went in,and not all at bad. Yes there are a few local characters in the place,but I didn't feel unsafe and no trouble. Overall quite an enjoyable experience, cheap beer & food in center of Sheffield.

Arrogant staff members, avoid like the plague, never going to get better

Good meeting place n typical witherspoons

The best pub for having food I have ever been to Sheffield. I love the calm atmosphere.

As ever with a 'Spoons' there was a good choice of food and drinks. Great value, convenient central location so everything you need from a town centre pub ....

Classic spoons, shame about some of the scroats but you get them in cheap places

0 chips day after Bassfest not happy bruv
