The Forum in Sheffield - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Waiter gave us a menu and explained the process for ordering etc very promptly. Young lady behind the coffee bar took my order nicely and asked me to wait for the coffee for me to take to our table. No problem with that. However, whilst waiting, the initial girl and the other girl barista chatted very loudly, no rush to make my drinks. They were discussing a story between them and we're swearing f***ING loudly and persistently in front of me and other customers . Unaware this is not a great experience.

Visited on a Sat for food and drinks and first impressions were that the staff were great and service was good. Then the food came… food wise the third choice was missed off the order for the three items deal that we ordered with a pizza. Pizza was good and so were the nachos but the buttermilk chicken strips were not good. Four tiny pieces of chicken and a mediocre dip. When I mentioned to a staff member the third item they said they could add it on but I had to pay full price which I did (though the food ordered was certainly not worth the £21 I then paid). I mentioned the chicken was disappointing and was told they would tell the chef and to feed that back via a review and so here it is! Not the best experience.

Such a nice afternoon doing a cocktail masterclass that we received as a Christmas present!! Couldn’t have been better

Evie- thanks so much for being kind and patient when it’s super busy and I’m requesting specific drinks :) Really made us all feel valued

Had a surprise day off. Popped in for a cheeky glass of wine. Excellent service from a girl with a blonde bob and red top. Really friendly and welcoming!! Thank you for the heads up on the drilling!

Well what a fab afternoon we had yesterday at The Forum! Met by the friendly Cat and then served by the wonderful Harry who couldn’t do enough for us. The bottomless brunch was excellent - best chicken burger I have eaten and perfect chips. Owen and Laura were helpful with my original booking and questions. Will definitely be back in 2024! Thanks again

Thanks for a fantastic time! Our waitress went above and beyond to really make our evening. She was a true professional who did everything she could to give us the best time. The food was also delicious. We all had the vegetarian Yorkshire wrap which was the perfect meal for a cold November night. Filling, satisfying, tasty. The experience was faultless.

We went for a cocktail making evening, had a great time, it’s lots of fun, everyone should try it. Our bartender Harry, made it really simple and made the best cocktails, it really got involved and made our session enjoyable whilst Aldi giving lots of tips. Would definitely recommend and ask for Harry

Cocktail making We had a brilliant time cocktail making with Harry. He was very friendly, funny and patient with us 6 ladies. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. You start with a welcome drink, then make plenty of cocktails. Make sure you have eaten before you begin. It could get a bit messy if not 🤣

Forum is sick - top tier venue for a good time, great guinness, and they play Frank Ocean ‘Nights’ which is crazy 👀

Came for some lunch on Saturday and I was blown away by the big portions! Definitely worth every penny. Owen was very friendly and was very knowledgeable about the food and drinks menu. Thank you Owen :)

Friendly - good for day drinking. Happened to call in with young family for a quick drink before going on elsewhere - clean, tidy, friendly bar staff - thanks

Unbilievably rubbish burger but a truly great customer service experience. Hamish has obviously graduated from the Rastamouse school of making a bad thing good. Didn’t get fed but came away feeling that there is hope for the future!

Really, the best skin on fries I can ever remember. The coffee was great, also the service - and I love the look and feel of the venue itself.

If you respect yourself, just don't go there. From horrible service to awful food. Waste of time and money.

Popped in for a few drinks mid mid-afternoon, mid-week on the run up to Christmas. Place was half full, but was early. Some tables were having food, some just drinks. We found a table and ordered drinks at the bar. Staff were fast and efficient. Nothing to write home about on the beer selection but ok. Got a lot busier later and staff were on the ball behind the bar. Enjoyable few hours in a nice bar.

We came for lunch. Terrible choice of menu had to wait ages. Very over priced and poor quality. I won't be visiting again which is a Shame as this pub used to be decent

Any served us. She is wonderful. I loved her. Thanks for lovely nights Love the forum. Good drinks. Boss service Ace drinks. Beautiful setting.

Whilst the interior is elegant and stylish, the staff wasn't exactly enthusiastic. The menu was much more limited than it used to be and the burgers were tasteless and full of gristle. A very disappointing experience on this occasion.

We were only able to pop in for a couple of cocktails on the evening of 7 July and it was pretty quiet but the staff couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming and the cocktails were delicious. We would definitely go again on a...

I visit the Forum multiple times a month, it NEVER disappoints. Whether its food with the family or drinks with friends, these guys hit the nail n the head every time.

Anne was a fantastic host and accommodated out every request. She is the most valuable member of staff at Forum. Cocktails were good too.

I have been to Forum 3 times now, both with family and friends, and each time was a lovely experience. It is a well rounded place with a mixture of all ages. I’ve had food each time and it was amazing! The waitress, Claudia, has...

Claudia was excellent. Amy knows how to motivate her staff Pizza was good value You ought to try the “shot-tails”

Claudia V was such a good server! So helpful and friendly we loved it! Will definitely be coming again! Great service great food and great drinks! Thank you Claudia!

Claudia was the best waitress ever!! Made us get the most of our bottomless brunch and sooo friendly!! Will definitely be coming back because of her and the food

We had a fantastic bottomless brunch today, both food and drinks were very good. Claudia was a fantastic waitress, we will definitely return! Thank you!

Small group of guests and family had pre-reception drinks at the Forum on my son’s wedding day. Great time with plenty of good drinks in a relaxing bar.

My twin brother Stephen and I were heading to Brewdog and chanced upon The Forum and what a great bar. I loved the interior, cosy,great decor and furnishings, a cool looking serving bar and plenty of seating options spread throughout this bar, to be honest...

I’m a regular to forum . The food is great , the drinks are fantastic and to top it off they are dog friendly too. Service is always brilliant qnd Rosie today made our stay today very comfortable and easy!

Visited the forum today, Rosie was our waitress. She was extremely helpful with our food order and went out of her way to make it a good experience. She’s lovely!

Really impressed: great food, great drinks, great service. Served by a lovely girl called Rosie will definitely be coming back

Lovely few drinks today at the Forum to start off the weekend, beautifully made and very affordable. We were served by a young girl called Rosie, who was very attentive and brightened our afternoon. Will be returning!

We visited yesterday Me and my partner (I'm gay) Amy locke was out server And she does deserve(er) A great big old rise in her pay XX

Lovely food and brilliant service, nothing too much trouble for the hard working girls that served myself & friends when we visited this saturday.

So dissapointed with my latest visit to the forum, have visited many times before and had a good experience so hope this was a one off. Visited for lunch. The service was very slow, food took an age to arrive. Even when mine arrived Husbands...

Gabby provided great service and was a good laugh. 10/10 service. Definitely deserves a pay rise. Great girl

Gabbie was absolutely amazing... The printer broke meaning we had to wait a little bit longer for drinks and she made sure we were okay straight away and replaced the drinks 👏 she's amazing!! Made our experience awesome

We visited Forum to celebrate a birthday on the 18th of June. Claudia and her colleague who’s name I can’t remember were absolutely amazing. Made sure our every need was catered too as well as being great to talk to. Overall cannot have asked for...

Fab night with amazing food and drinks. Served by Dylan and Beth who were so attentive and polite — best experience you could ask for will definitely be back!

We sat outside- Bernie and Claudia served us and it was lovely! The gazebo was perfect considering the weather. Overall would recommend and will be returning!

Poor service from the manager who told us we were not allowed to sit at our booked table after the England game because my boyfriend was wearing an England shirt. Quite indignantly told that it says so on the website - which it does at...

Amy looked after us what a lass. Sorted us out best table in house. Best service ever. Appreciate it

Absolute darlin. Amazing service. The best in forum. Always serving with a smile, what an absolute gem.

Amy was our initial host, attitude was absolutely fantastic! Always happy to help, always a smile on face and an impeccable hostess! Thank you for making it a great experience, thanks Amy!

Amy was truly amazing from the beginning right to the end, couldn’t recommend more, the customer service was amazing thank you Amy !!!

Absolutely great time! Amy looked after us outside so well! Great attitude, a total all rounder!! Give her a swift promotion, she deserves it!!!

Massive shout out to Cameron! Really enjoyed our visit today and definitely made our night. Top lad!

Absolutely fantastic experience at the Forum last night. Great atmosphere and customer service from Amy Locke! Would recommend to anyone looking for an evening out in Sheffield!

Gabby - Amazing! She was more than attentive and helped us out so much. She was polite and respectful x

Enjoyable drinks with friends, great table service by a lady called Amy, lovely evening, 100% would come again

Anne G was amazing. Nothing was too much, amazing service!!!! Every time we asked something, Anne was straight on it!!!

Anne was amazing - the service she provided was amazing - she diligently served a table of 8 people and with consistently brilliant throughout

Great cocktails, nice atmosphere and amazing staff, totally recommended if you want to have a good time. Ps. Coffee is also spot on

Headed to the forum Friday night for some drinks and some food and I wasn’t disappointed, the pizza’s we had were brilliant and tasteful, a nice mix of flavours! The staff were really nice and welcoming, it did seem pretty busy. For drinks, me and my friends had some cocktails which were made perfectly - Just what was needed on a Friday night, some vibrant atmosphere accompanied with some good food and good friends. Thank you, The Forum.

When you come in ask for Anne to be your server because she brings a smile to my eyes. Love you Anne. Queen bee x

Her ginger hair and her smile brings a shine to my day. The best service we could have asked for with every need met and more. Thank you so much Anne you have made my weekend

Great drink and great ambiance! Nice coffee as well. The food is also lovely! Go for the pizza you won't be dissapointed !

Really disappointed with this establishment, arrived for drinks for my mates 22nd birthday having payed a deposit and just as we sat down we were rudely kicked out for by the manager for no apparent reason other than our appearance as young lads. Thanks for ruining the birthday

Had a fab time at the Forum, thanks to Jake H for making a very rainy Saturday leaving do a great afternoon.

Went for drinks on a very rainy Saturday, Jake H looked after us, was full of banter and made the weather bearable. Thank you so much Jake!!!

Anne was the best, she’s like our best friend, she remembered us from last time. Thank you Anne!!!!!

Lovely service from Jake great bants and great service made our day absolutely great....lovely staff

I don't normally write reviews like this but Forum Bar & Kitchen have proven to be a bunch of thieves, they stole my money! We booked a table and paid a £10 deposit. The weather forecast was looking like rain and as we were going to be sat outside we decided to rearrange for another day... I called Forum a few days before our booking date but the line rang for 20 minutes without answer so I gave up. My girlfriend emailed them to ask about rearranging, but no one replied. I messaged them on Twitter, no reply. I called again a day later, no answer but this time the phone went to a voicemail system, so I left my name and number, no one called back!It's been weeks now and we've had no reply. I've tried to contact them again since, but got no reply. I was raining and windy on the day of our booking so we didn't attend and depiste multiple attempts to contact them beforehand, they have ignored us and kept our money. It's only a tenner but it's the principle, they make you pay a deposit, which is fair enough, but then ignore you if you need to change or cancel. Avoid these thieves if you can... I won't be giving them any more of my money ever again.

On the website it said Forum were doing food from 11, so when we arrived and were told no food until 12 we were already starting on the back foot.The disappointment is primarily coming from the food. Absolutely awful, so so outraged.First off, I appreciate that a business will always mark up food prices, however, charging through the roof for something that was totally false advertising is not acceptable. I should've refused to pay. I had ordered a vegan breakfast chimichanga. I know some places weirdly serve scraps to vegans instead of a proper sized meal, but this was ridiculous! As I say we'd already waited over an hour because of false information on their website, so I was hungry and expecting a decent portion for a £10.55 meal... A chimichanga is a deep-fried burrito, anybody who enjoys TexMex food knows that.So, you can imagine my surprise when a tiny toasted wrap arrived! Each slice (no bigger than my palm) cost me over a fiver!!! The ratio of filling was totally wrong, mainly tofu which in the quantities they must make is the cheapest element of the wrap! You cannot put a tiny wrap into a panini press and call it a chimichanga! I felt totally robbed and starving hungry.Save your money and time, don't go to the Forum.

I love Forum, I’ve been a few times and their food and drinks are really nice if not a little on the pricey side. However, on Friday 16/4 we queued for an hour to get in (which we had no problem with) once we were seated we ordered drinks and were having a nice time in the sun. After about 45minutes a member of staff came up to our table, said it was booked and we’d need to leave in the next 10 minutes. When we asked if we could just move tables as we’d queued a whole hour to get in their response was ‘there’s other people waiting’. I feel really annoyed that we weren’t warned that we’d be seated at a booked table and there was no warning while waiting in the queue that we’d only have less than an hour at a table. As I said I love the place but I was really let down by their customer service.

Rebecca the general manager was lovely and so were all of the staff members at the forum, even when it was extremely busy the drinks came quickly and rebecca stud to chat with us even though she was very busy. We understand there has been a huge influx in the public going out due to the Covid restrictions being lifted, however those who work in hospitality should still be respected. They are working extremely hard to provide hospitality for members of the public since the lockdown restrictions have been lifted.

Visited with friends in the summer. The beef chilli nachos were the best I’ve ever had. The small plates were also superb especially the sticky lime chicken. My friends beef and blue cheese pizza was delicious. Well worth a visit

Gran servicio y muy buenas medidas de distanciamiento social implementadas. El menú está en un QR en la mesa y traen bebidas.Lo único extraño es que toman sus datos a la llegada. Luego te doy un QR para rastrear y rastrear: / que pensé que era la razón por la que tomaron los detalles. Pero, el personal fue encantador y servicial :)

Reservé con algunos amigos para tomar un par de bebidas y algo de comida el fin de semana pasado, y a pesar de las restricciones de COVID - 19, todos lo pasamos muy bien.Recibido en la puerta por una encantadora señora llamada Amy, quien nos cuidó toda la tarde. Ella estuvo muy atenta y siguió viniendo para asegurarse de que todos estuviéramos bien, nos hizo sentir como en casa y se aseguró de que nunca tuviéramos un vaso vacío.Todos pedimos pizza y, sinceramente, ¡me quedé impresionado! No suelo pedir pizza cuando salgo a comer porque soy un poco snob de Dominos, ¡pero la pizza crujiente de tocino fue fantástica! Nuevamente Amy, siguió viniendo para asegurarse de que todo estuviera bien con la comida y preguntó si necesitábamos más acompañamientos / bebidas.¡Definitivamente volveremos! ¡Toda la experiencia fue increíble! Gracias por un buen día, grite a esa chica Amy, espero que nos cuide la próxima vez que entremos.

Buen lugar, excelente servicio, pero me decepcionó un poco la comida ya que esperaba muy buena calidad de la información que leí en su sitio web.Las bebidas eran buenas.Apto para familias.

Very well organised, staff confident with safety measures. Felt very safe. Food was fantastic. Great gluten free burgers too. Once you get used to the app it's easy.

Tuve que esperar más de una hora por 2 hamburguesas que no diría que valieran 10 por hamburguesa. Las patatas fritas estaban muy bien, pero la ensalada era pobre.Cervezas caras, ¡5 una pinta!El restaurante era muy agradable y el personal amable y presente.

Went to forum last night for a staff night out and the staff were amazing especially Amy really looked after us

Los controles de temperatura en la puerta, las estaciones de desinfección de manos y las rutas de ida alrededor del restaurante nos hicieron sentir cómodos en estos covid: 19 veces. Aplicación fácil de usar para pedir comida, que salió rápidamente. Pedí los calamares para comenzar, que estaba un poco exagerado. La hamburguesa Hot Damn estaba deliciosa, si no un poco seca. Buen ambiente con personal amable.

Food good, drinks good, beer garden brilliant. One of Sheffield’s best bar, especially if the suns out. Great afternoon.

The pizzas are delicious and for the price you get a good size pizza. However, the lady making the pizzas came across quite rude and put me off buying them.

A place I had often passed yet never tried before but really should have. My daughter and I were looking for somewhere interesting to dine after sorting things in town.The interesting assortment of items on the menu and their somewhat amusing titles were a little different and very appealing The combination of ingredients in some of the dishes was quite intriguing too. There would be something on the to suit almost all tastes from standard fare to something a little more exotic or adventurous. Considering the size of the portions they were reasonably priced and tasty too. We both very much enjoyed what we ordered which didn’t take long to arrive.A jug of water was provided to accompany our meals so we didn’t order drinks, but there looked to be a good selection. We both liked the relaxed atmosphere, perhaps partly created by the unique decor and although it was situated just off a fairly busy thoroughfare it wasn’t noisy. The smooth background music enhanced the atmosphere, enjoyable entertainment in itself but not obtrusive so as to limit conversation.There were only about a dozen people there when we visited. The place is probably much busier at night time.I decided to try “Banana Blossom” Fish & chips (with peas). This isn’t fish, doesn’t really have the taste of such, (to me) had a texture similar to chicken but a taste not quite like either. To me it was well worth trying and I would have it again. It’s for those who like to try something a little different.I asked at the bar what it was and they very kindly summoned the chef, who thankfully had the time to enlighten me. He was very pleasant and informative.There’s always something interesting to try if you are willing to look a little further and this is what happened here.

Fabulous staff and wonderful food. It was very busy when we arrived but the service was brilliant and we had no issues whatsoever. I had the Jackfruit burrito and it was yummy. We also signed up the the Forum card for 2 for 1 cocktails. Loved it and will definitely go back.

Nos detuvimos en el bar para tomar una copa, pero terminamos quedándonos a comer. ¡La mejor idea que tuvimos ese día!La comida tiene un precio muy razonable, las pizzas son absolutamente gigantescas y recomendamos la pizza de "diablos", ¡estaba deliciosa!¡Recomiende este lugar si solo visita Sheffield como si fuéramos!

Came for bottomless brunch for my birthday and Dom provided amazing service. Made sure we were comfortable and our drinks were full the entire time. The brunch menu was amazing, burrito and hangover fries were delicious. Cannot reccomend enough. Will definitely be back!

Vine aquí con un amigo por capricho, ¡y estoy muy contenta de haberlo hecho! El personal fue increíble, muy buen servicio y personas realmente amables que claramente están acostumbradas a muchos clientes muy groseros, ya que se disculparon por la espera después de solo haber pasado 20 minutos. Tuvimos un gran almuerzo allí, un montón de opciones de menú (creo que era un nuevo menú), y como era un lunes a mitad de precio con una tarjeta de foro que lo hizo de gran valor. Definitivamente volveré otra vez, ¡y espero que el personal sepa lo buenos que son!

We popped in for lunch on a Tuesday to find out that pizza was HALF PRICE! We shared a delicious 16 inch pizza for just £3 each! Perfect. Lovely restaurant. Slightly slow on drinks orders usually despite lots of staff but all in all a great place.

This place is linked to a brewery and different local options on tap. Staff were really nice and friendly. Beer decent prices too and there Re. I’ve offers for cocktails too. Recommended

The forum has fast become one of my favourite places to eat and drink in Sheffield. Decent prices with a varied menu of both food and drink. Slice bar pizza in particular is definitely a highlight! Friendly staff although you can find yourself waiting a bit at the bar.

We decided to call in to the forum to have a light lunch as we were in town for bank holiday. We haven't eaten at the forum for a long time and it was great to see the new refurbishment which looks amazing, i loved the industrial decor.We ordered a salad and the club sandwich. We were alarmed to hear that all food orders would be a 30 minute wait. I really couldn't understand this as it wasn't busy at allThe waiter did say our order wouldn't be 30 minutes but it was around 25 minutes which is quite a long time to get a salad and sandwich.The food was really nice, i enjoyed my salad it was very tasty and a large portion. The service was ok, not great a bit hectic but not to badThe meal came to £28 for the food and 2 'mocktails' which was good value

Llegamos a almorzar con nuestro hijo de 3 años el sábado y nos dijeron que no se permitían menores de 14 años. Aprecio que era fin de semana de tranvía y algunas cosas pueden haber sido diferentes, pero no hubo ninguna advertencia en la puerta, en el sitio web o en la semana anterior cuando estábamos almorzando con amigos.

Tuvimos muchas cervezas Staropramen en el Foro y luego queríamos tener algo de comida. Mi novio pidió pizza con queso de cabra, espinacas y aceitunas negras. La mejor pizza que hemos tenido recientemente. La corteza era simplemente increíble. No es gruesa ni delgada. Y literalmente pudimos probar todos los ingredientes muy bien.

Vine aquí para comida y bebidas y pensé que era increíble. El personal fue atento y pude elegir entre una variedad de comida vegetariana. Esto también es ideal para las bebidas, tienen una sección al aire libre que es útil para cuando hace sol. Visitaría de nuevo

Visité recientemente para un cumpleaños de amigos, habiendo visitado antes en el área del lado del bar. Me sorprendió bastante la clase con la que se ve el estilo conservatorio abierto y el área de luz. Gran comienzo, la mesa se veía genial. Tenía resacas preordenadas que eran enormes y absolutamente irreales, cubiertas de tocino, queso y cubiertas con huevos fritos. Mmm El brunch sin fondo nos permitió dos horas de Prosecco sin fondo, Mimosas o Bloody Marys, opté por los BMs y estaban deliciosos. El personal fue rápido en sus pies (pero, obviamente, con poco personal) nos las arreglamos para conseguir tres bebidas cada una en el espacio de dos horas (aunque éramos 10) para 25 personas, una comida y tres bebidas es de gran valor y sé que Probablemente se encontraban en una situación de escasez de personal o de alguien que estaba enfermo, ya que hubiera sido bueno no tener que esperar mucho tiempo entre las bebidas, pero realmente hicieron todo lo posible. Dividir la cuenta fue bastante fácil. Definitivamente iré de nuevo, tal vez solo en un grupo mucho más pequeño!

This place has a good range of Vegan Options. I had the Shroomie’ Roast Mushrooms, Rocket, Artichokes and grilled Vegan Cheese. To die for........would come back but I live in Plymouth (sad face)

place of mixed fortunes with some good points and some not so good.

First time having food at The Forum. If you're like me and find it hard to decide what to order because there's so many delicious things to choose from. Choose a couple of items off the small plate menu. Great food, great service. Won't be my last visit.

Do not go here! Totally gone down hill. Need new bar staff who actually want to serve customers! What happened to service with a smile? Should be ashamed!

Somos una pareja madura que nos gusta hacer los primeros compases antes de la loca carrera y, por lo general, consideramos que el foro es un gran lugar. Sin embargo, hoy en día había una banda que hacía su prueba de sonido, que siempre se escuchaba fuerte y monótona, lo que la hacía desagradable para el resto de bar Nos hubiéramos quedado más tiempo, pero nos dijeron que esto continuaría durante algún tiempo y que la gerencia estaba consciente. Pobre servicio al cliente hoy, me temo que si la banda necesita practicar el golpeo constante de un tambor, entonces no pueden ser muy buenos, fue simplemente indulgente. nuestra visita desagradable

We did lunch here at half term, food was fine nothing special but reasonable value. Very quiet being a Monday at 12.30 but would have expected more than the 8 people who were there by the time we left.

Vine aquí en una cita, encontré que el bar tenía una selección de cervezas extravagantes de barril. El menú tenía muchas opciones diferentes a precios razonables. Mi hamburguesa y patatas fritas eran muy agradables.

Was out on a site visit with a colleague and popped into the Forum Kitchen & Bar for a spot of lunch, I didn’t know what to expect as I didn’t research it beforehand.
