The Plough Inn in Sheffield

Lovely pub. We only had cake which was very nice as the coffee machine was under repair but we did have soft drinks. We have booked in for Christmas lunch in December and are really looking forward to it. The staff are very friendly and chatty. The pub is very cozy and clean and the 70's 80's background music was spot on. Thanks for a lovely afternoon and looking forward to Christmas lunch.

We had not been to the Plough since the new owners took over and quite frankly I doubt we will visit it again in the near future. The place used to be packed, and it was hard to get a table, now apart from the drinkers it was almost empty. We were a party of five and ordered five different meals, which took an age to arrive. My burger was overcooked to the point of being burned and sat on a hugh amount of overcooked chips. My wife had what was supposed to be a small meat pie which turned to be a hugh wedge, accompanied by garden peas which resembled dried peas out of a packet. Two of the other three meals were as unappealing with the exception of the vegetarian option.

We spent a few days in Foxholes Farm House which is the road up from The Bradfield Plough. Every evening we walked down for a dinner. Food is absolutely outstanding! Could eat it every day. Staff is very friendly, the place is very clean and beautiful interior design. We definitely will be back in the future (would every week if not 5hrs drive 😬🙈) Highly recommended!

Large multi room restaurant, idiosyncratic decor. We were sat in the room furthest from the bar. While initially attentive the serving staff were largely absent, which meant having to trek to the bar to order more drinks. We didn't stay for dessert. Tempora prawns turned out to be scampi (we didn't pay for them).

Nice chicken burger, although pickles on it is a weird choice. Sat outside in the sunshine. Vegan options are limited Range of beers moderate

A nice village pub that has been tastefully renovated, with good food on the menu.

The food was nice and the extension was cozy the service was excellent I would recommend it for a nice meal

Went here for tea Food was fantastic,staff were very friendly & helpful, and it's so lovely to be waited on. Decoration is fab, defo got everything right. Will be returning.

Went for a quiet drink only got a bit noisy for a short time. Loaded chipy chips with panchetta, barbque sauce and cheese was nice. The menu is standard pub grub but more expensive than say Weatherspoons. Plenty of space outside for sunnier days.

We met family here for a lunch time meal. The area is lovely and the pub is situated well. Our little one enjoyed the small park after our meal outside in the beer garden. The decor in the room we ate was lovely and so fitting. The kids meal was good with drink and pudding included. All of our meals were lovely and there were plenty of choice on the menu. We may return.

Nice established in a beautiful area ! Very big loads of drinks to choose from and decent choice on the food menu. Thought it was a bit expensive a small slice of pie with chips and peas was £16 !! Plus 8 quid for a glass of wine . Plus waitress forgot to give us our knife and forks 😆. I prefer the old horns inn on other side of village but my girlfriend likes this place better probably because old horns is always rammed but the foods better it's better value for money and views are just as good.

Love the decor and very friendly staff. I had delicious (and generous!) nachos as a starter followed by the vegan burger and chips. All very good and portions I couldn't quite finish! A lovely pub.

Excellent food, excellent service

Terrible....children's sausages burt that was actually £10. Hair in my daughter burger the floor covered in a oprevious customers food. Absolutely terrible never again. Used nappy in ladies toilet that smelt the lavatory out.

Go hiking, call in after and fill your belly with a Prime Burger and a couple of pints of Bradfield Brewery Brown Cow finest hand pulled beer 🍺🍺 Definitely one of the best pubs in world

Super meal. Well done all involved

Lovely pub. Great beer and not expensive.

Beautiful location with gorgeous views. Remote in terms of public transport. Very busy, I would suggest you book if dining.

Since the revamp this pub has risen in quality for the drinks and food, have been Since this review and was just as good.

Can't understand the positive reviews about the food. The interior remodeling is very nice, light and airy, but the selling point of The Plough has always been the excellent food. Today, our food was awful, from a now very short and dull, clichéd menu. My philly steak wrap was bland, filled for some reason with watery mushrooms and verging on the inedible. My wife's cajun chicken wrap was a sort of spicy slime with two pieces of chicken in it. Overpriced rubbish. Somewhere else we now can't eat.

Everything about the Plough Bradfield is excellent 👌

Liked it when it was The Plough, like it even better now... Great food, top service, great makeover and awesome playlist to eat to! Top it off with Bradfield beers...what's not to like...

Called in for 1 drink after a walk . Thinking about eating here next weekend. Definitely won't be bothering now. We were pleased to see there was a tap room so we sat at a table. We were approached by a female member of staff. Didn't tell us her name but she had a navy blue shirt dress on . She came to the table and said Are you eating. We said no just having this drink. To which her instant reply was right well you'll have to move I need this table now for people eating. The couple behind her were extremely embarrassed. We would have been more than happy to move but her mannar was appalling. She then proceeded to start arguing saying there is a notice on the table. I put them there. It wasn't noticeable. I have never been spoken to like that. We definitely won't be back. Do yourself a favour and don't bother. There are other friendlier places. Plus the food going past didn't look that great

A great Sunday afternoon . Tab at the bar, real ales, lagers and a good selection of wines and gin. Sunday dinner, carvery, perhaps more of a selection of vegetables, but amazing. Vegan options available. Free parking, kids slide / climbing frame. Outdoor seating No dogs

What a terrible place this is,I ordered pie really should be called dry because that's what it was! Inedible hard pastry and dried up filling,couldn't cut into it or chew it it was that bad,they gave me another and said that was a fresh one just the same as the first, the chef needs to go back to chef school instead of strutting about looking important wants sacking! The waitress went to fetch a supervisor who didn't want to know!? Too busy doing nothing,we did get money back for the dry pie ,but the other meal wasn't much better.Stay away from this place for food ,better places not too far away. Wouldnt rate this one star if I had the option

Went in for a couple of drinks and a bite. Food was great, views are amazing and so was the service - nothing to complain about. The pub is dog friendly inside and out. We wanted to say a big thank you to a female member of staff that went above and beyond to help us get home when our bus didn't show up and it was already dark. Thank you again !!

Lovely place to eat tasty food and good portions

My go to pub for food when in the area. They are doing up the place and it's looking good. Outside searing there is plenty and it's in a great countryside location. Very reasonably priced and food is tasty

Well how do I start, not eaten here for a while. Never had a problem with any staff here. Now 9/8/2024 it’s a massive Change the place has been updated massively and the food well it’s amazing tasty and loads of it. The garden has even been upgraded. Seriously if you haven’t been for a while, you’re in for a massive surprise. I will be back A LOT.

Excellent after refurb, large beer garden, great for kids, really good food and generous carvery. Very good choice of lagers and other drinks.

Came for lunch today the waitresses got us seated quickly and was very welcoming while waiting for our lunch that was nice from the new menu we over heard the manager on multiple occasions being rude to her staff while she was just sat at the bar chatting away while her staff are running round it’s ashame as they was working so hard

Friendly welcoming staff, relaxed environment. Good value lunch time menu.

Visited May bank holiday 2023. Fantastic service. Booked at very short notice for 6 people on a Bank Holiday Monday. My mum walks with the aide of a stick. Our table was ideally situated near the entrance, the loo & the bar. The food was well presented & tasted very nice. All staff were friendly, polite & very helpful. A 5* experience. Visited July 2024. Under new management, so wasn't sure what to expect. I shouldn't have worried. Again, fantastic value, tasty, well presented food, friendly & attentive staff. The Plough's having some improvements carried out at the moment, but these are being done without any inconvenience to the customers. 5☆ highly recommend.

Often visit whilst travelling through Sheffield but this place has gone downhill since new management. The food now average and overpriced. The staff do work so hard but I the manager is extremely rude to her staff. Won't be back - shame.

Came for a carvery on a Sunday > Good points < - Friendly and helpful staff One member of staff had to deal with some beefy man in a red jumper who had roid-rage. He walked straight to the bar to order a carvery then sat at a reserved table. The young lady (staff member) asked politely if the abrupt man had booked the table. He gave her quite a bit of abuse and asked for his money back. He persistently became more rude when the staff member took his receipt to the bar to get him his refund shouting “I want to hold my receipt you could be going anywhere with that” The staff member didn’t flinch once and dealt with ‘Mr.Anabolic’ really well. - Food was lovely especially the honey roasted carrots. > Bad point < - Carvery queue snakes around customers tables. Uncomfortable situation waiting and stood over someone’s table while they eat. Myself and others apologising to those sat eating. These customers saying themselves about not coming back due to the awkwardness of eating and having a queue of people waiting beside them while they eat.

The new management is poor and how she treats the staff is completely unacceptable. Rude horrible person. Avoid at all costs

My friend and I popped into the Plough on Wednesday 10 July for lunch. It was packed out but we managed to find a seat. Staff were helpful, friendly and cheerful. Likewise, the whole place had a lovely atmosphere. I’m coeliac and noted they could do gf fish n chips, we both ordered this dish. The plates duly arrived with plenty of chips and a good sized battered fish, two pots on the side contained home made tartare sauce and mushy peas. The fish was perfect and the gf batter superb, chips were lovely and the sauce and mushy peas delicious. These lovely lunches were just £8.00 each ! Amazing value and very good quality. We will definitely visit again. I was absolutely stunned to read some of the reviews on here as our experience was so different. I would highly recommend this place and if I lived slightly closer would make it a weekly regular.

Well what an absolute pleasure. We called in on hoping to get a table for 2. We were me at the bar by a lovely young lady took us straight to a table and made us feel really welcome. After bringing our drinks to our table the young lady took our order straight away and we didn't have to wait long before our meals arrived steaming hot .I had the double beef burger oh my god what a delicious meal the burgers were had made I think . Lovely succulent meat with no gristle or chewey fat int at all. (Bloody lovely) The chips are proper cooked just like mam used to make years ago. My wife had the steak and ale pie with proper chips and mushy peas she was also delighted with her meal . All the staff were very attentive and very well mannered. What an absolute delight. We will be back very soon.👏👏👏👏

Overall fool decent but over priced, no more lunch time deals. Not be rushing back, shame really.

Booked meal for 4 adults 6.30pm Saturday. Arrived at 5pm for a drink before eating. There was one bar staff pouring drinks for the diners and also for the large group of drinkers watching the football match. There was a dog roaming around the dining tables. We asked for sweet rose wine and was served a dry Pinot instead. The beer was excellent. Been to this pub many times but it’s under new management and calls itself a bistro now. It’s hard to tell what is different from the old Plough, the menu didn’t seem any different. It’s probably a work in progress. Ordered 2 quiche meals , the quiche was cold, the salad was very unappetising and the chips were over cooked. One of our party ate it because she was hungry but the other left virtually all of the meal. Her husband, recovering from a stroke has difficulty using a knife to cut food up, he asked for chicken tikka masala and rice - NO RICE AVAILABLE - decided on chilli con carne with rice - NO RICE AVAILABLE . Come on, rice is a a staple food and to not have it available on a Saturday evening is not good enough. He doesn’t eat chips so chose the food he thought he would be most likely to be able to manage , Toad in the Hole with mashed potatoes and veg. It was tasteless, the veg was too hard for him to cut through and the mash had a hidden stash of chips hidden underneath. No idea why. He left most of the meal. I opted for pie,chips and mushy peas. Big portion but The pie was tepid, the chips tasteless and the mushy peas were dry. A small jug of gravy was provided but the meal was already awash with gravy. Far too much liquid on the plate. I left almost all of the meal. Out of 4 meals only one had been eaten. We told the waitress of our issues, she relayed it to the kitchen staff but no one was interested, the staff virtually shrugged their shoulders. Money spends anywhere. We regularly eat at the pubs and restaurants in Loxley and Bradfield. This was the worst experience ever. We will give our custom to their competitors in future.

Had a nice pint here after a walk round Dam Flask reservoir.

I love this pub, so I was a little concerned when it had a change of ownership recently. I need not have been. It seems The Plough is in safe hands. Still serving good food at at an affordable price. Plenty of choice at the bar with the local beers well represented, including a favourite of mine Abbeydale Brewery. The staff are as friendly as ever. The updates to the decor are excellent. Long may it continue!

£3 for water, £2.20 soda and lime! Coffee, half a cup. Food ok, although don't order chicken burger as it is not a burger but dried up chicken in breadcrumbs. Couldnt see what refurbishments had been done!

Looks lovely after being renovated. Still great food, great atmosphere. The staff on the floor were amazing and very attentive. Great place to meet and have food and drinks.

Top class country pub serving excellent meals and a fabulous choice of beers and alcohol. Super friendly staff, with plenty of seats inside and out, well worth a visit.

Food was mediocre, went for Sunday carvery but in the afternoon and there were only two vegetables available. Daughter doesn’t eat red meat so was forced to have a meal from the main menu. New manager heard a few times being abrupt with the young waitresses which were actually doing a great job

Just been, waited 30 minutes for meal. Pub was nearly empty, so don't know what it's like when busy. Hunters chicken and chips dry and not nice. Lukewarm. Sent neice for bowl of chips, £6.05!! Daylight robbery. Used to love it there

Ordered two meals one being gluten free burger and the other the lasange. We also had two starters and they took over 45 minutes to come with the main meal. The burger had baked bean juice on it so was soggy and baked been on the bottom when i DIDNT order baked beans. The chips on both meals were flavourless and burnt. We wasn’t even asked if our meals were okay or checked on at any point. Not what i expect for £50 for two people. Will not be returning. Think the new ownership has made it go downhill.

Ordered hunters chicken for myself and my daughter. 35 mins later food still hadn't arrived. When it did it was burnt , chicken was hard .peas overcooked , very well done scraps mixed in with a few chips , tiny salad garnish ( asked for salad ) gave it to our dog ! Will never eat here again .

Sort the bloody sound system out! Sounds like it's coming outta a tin can!! Other than that, great! 👍

Good food at a very good price, served by helpful and agreeable staff in pleasant surroundings.

Visited for the first time in a while and we were not disappointed. The carvery was delicious- meat was tasty and the yorkshire puddings were a favourite. Great atmosphere and lovely attentive staff who couldn't have done more to make our visit a positive one. We will absolutely be returning soon.

Having recently changed from a pub restaurant to a Bistro we would give it a try. What a mistake. Although the steak and ale pies were nice when we got the bill they had charged £29.00 for a bottle of Stoneleigh sauvignon blanc 75cl which can be picked up in many supermarkets or Amazon for £8.50, a mark up of £20.50, I questioned the price and was told these are the new prices. I emailed the address on their Google page but have had no reply as yet. Beware of rip off prices!

Went here for a big family reunion. Good food, attentive service, nice beer. Portions are huge. It’s not fine dining, but the food is great, there’s plenty of it, it’s well-cooked and it’s great value It’s a friendly place, great for a big reunion. Recommended

Generous portions, reasonable price and a very good atmosphere, definitely recommend to anyone

Sunday roast at its best - thank you 🌞

Great country pub. Called with the setters after a long walk. Look forward to returning when pub garden is opened.

Sadly the garden doesn’t have grass or a view. Some of the staff were a bit rude, pretended not to see us, some were nice. The food was a joke (see the photo) the nachos were the worst: guacamole was a teaspoon of something green, probably from a bottle, the nachos were stale, there was no spice. Unless you’re desperate I would suggest avoiding this place.

Didn't have time to stop for a meal but that said the food being served to others looked great......we will be back to sample the food..

Have been many times without complaint but today's meal was the worst I have ever had anywhere, the chips were burnt and tasted awful as did the onion rings, and swimming in dark oil, the oil definitely needs changing and we weren't the only ones to complain, 3 tables around us said the same, tiny portions and I didn't order from the light bites which tbh was a blessing as the food was enedible, also the salad if you could call it that, was lettuce and two halves if a cherry tomato, no coleslaw which it said there would be, absolutely terrible, I feel sorry for the waitresses as they were inundated with complaints that weren't down to them. what is going on here???

Great place that serves Sunday roast until 7pm, we just caught it after our hike. It was self serve and everything was very delicious. Had local gluten-free beer which was amazing! Highly recommend!

Had an amazing carvery here, everything was delicious and the service was excellent.

The recent change in management has resulted in a significant decline in the quality of the establishment. The Sunday carvery, once a highlight, now offers a limited selection of two meats and a meager variety of vegetables. The mashed potatoes appear to be reconstituted from frozen roast potatoes, lacking in both texture and flavor. The overall taste of the dishes is bland, with the gravy resembling water. The establishment has lost its charm and appeal, and the prices particularly the £16 carvery, are no longer justified A return to the previous management is strongly recommended to restore the establishment's reputation and attract customers

Came in February 2024 and we had two gorgeous steaks Very disappointed this time gone from restaurant standard to cafe standard food Staff lovely and helpful

Excellent food and service. I would highly recommend 👌

A takeover and partial re-branding is always a dangerous move. Been long time customers and always loved it. However, called tonight for tea to find the pub has new management. All I can say is where's the atmosphere gone? The cosiness and warm feeling isn't there anymore. Bring back the twinkling lights near the bar! The big window near the fireplace let's in too much light. The menu has changed and all our old favourites are gone. Cheese tart is bland, steak pie has plenty of steak but pastry is not nice at all and generally smaller portions. The old menu was definitely superior to this new effort! Nobody asking if everything was alright with our meals and no cheery goodbye when we left. We feel that a little bit of soul has been ripped out of our favourite pub. Sadly, after many, numerous visits, we'll be giving the plough a miss for a while.

Used to be really good and very sensibly priced. Called in for drinks and couldn't believe what we were charged. Won't be back in a hurry. Going to the Nags now.

Just in the middle of building work but should be even better when it's done

Food not good Waited an hour Got order wrong 2 meals not good at all

First time been in 4 months very disappointed,, prices do not reflect on the quality and portion size very average pub food ,ordered the lasagna for 16 pound very small portion which came with 6 scrappy chips rock hard flat bread and a tablespoon of coleslaw , I have always complimented the food at the plough but would never return , ordered the steak pie lunch time menu at 8 pound for my mum it was barely a kids portion ,, what a shame that this pubs food quality has decreased and the prices increased , came away very disappointed and a rating of barely 1 star I will be going to the old horns for quality

Awful place awful management. Just completely awful and outrages. Alice who ever she is is a horrible woman. I warn anyone please don’t bother with this place an absolute hell hole to work for and no words for the chef and the food he produces. Stay as far away as possible.

Lovely staff,great atmosphere and surroundings,food amazing good selection on menu,we pre ordered our meals with it being a big group the food was well presented and tasty decent portions we booked the table for my birthday treat 15 family members in total we got seated quickly the chef was informed of our arrival and the food was served to all of us within 30 mins and it was delicious highly recommend a visit

My husband and I visited here while on holiday, we had a fantastic meal. Would highly recommend, we returned later in the week and had another excellent meal. Couldn’t fault anything

I recommend this place for people who like,beer,Sunday dinners,and quizzes ,great place to grab a bite with a beer or a different pepperidge with friends,family, or just you,definitely recommend this location 10/10

If you've been here then you know 😋👌

Nice pub and not badly priced drinks :)

Meals very expensive for what you get. The meat on mine was so dry it was awful. I gave up trying to eat it and left half if it. We got there early and looking back it seemed to be reheated food from the previous day. It can't have been freshly cooked. No one asked how the meal was. The restaurant section was full of dogs, which made us feel uncomfortable. I can still taste the food 12 hours later. Not pleasant.

First time eating here and it was brilliant, food was great and plenty of it(carvery). I cannot praise the staff enough they were very pleasant.

Lovely warm welcome on a foul day, called for a couple of drinks while out walking. Lots of people eating,all looked good. Very nice place!

Completely refurbished since I was last in - staff were lovely and very helpful. Didn’t have the carvery but looked great!

Excellent value food in a nice atmosphere

Absolutely love this place, beautiful building, great location, food is amazing and staff are wonderful, very polite and work very hard, I recommended this place to friends and family and loads of them have visited and all thanked me for the recommendation, always a pleasure to visit the plough 👌😄

Very nice meals, and worth the price!! Lovely scenery too!

Party of 8 for dinner and the food & drink was excellent. An often visited pub for food, drinks and coffees.

Lovely pub, would recommend. Very good if you are gluten free, the menu is brilliant.

Pre-booked lunch for 2 and a dog. Was really busy so would recommend booking in advance to guarantee getting a table. Staff were friendly, good choice of beers. The menu was big. We ordered the dirty burger and the fish finger baguette. The portions are huge for the price and tasty. Overall, good value for money and a good meal. Would recommend and would go back.

Never got to dine there. Travelled from the other side of Sheffield. Just to find a note pinned on the door saying they had, had a power cut, so closed. No phone call or anything from them. Managed to get in at another pub nearby.

Went last night, 4 of use, ambiance excellent ..service 100%, food faultless...loved it

Ended up here at short notice after another place fell through. Couldn't have been more hospitable. The food was great, portions are massive and exactly what the doctor ordered! Service was excellent! Will definitely be back.

Called in at last minute,food was excellent and Lauren our waitress was very efficient and lovely.

So where to start.. heard amazing things about this pub but tonight had the pleasure of having my own. Arrived with no. Prebooking which was a risk of its own and especially this time of year 2 be greeted by 2 lovely lasses . Who cleared us a table as we for a drink from the bar. Excellent service from a fine gentleman with a great sence of humour and some good ol banter. Food was incredible Worth every penny cooked to perfection. Service with a smile I honestly cant recommend this olace enough i will be back. Thank you for an amazing night xx

Perfect as usual food was good as usual staff as well a lovely time was had by all good value for money we both had carvery which was very nice granddaughter had Hunter's chicken she really really enjoyed it I've been going up there for about 5 or 6 years now never had a bad meal yet going up Christmas Eve for Christmas dinner really looking forward to it

Really delicious food this evening. The menu has some fantastic options and loads of choice for vegetarians and vegans. The staff are lovely and a very welcoming place for dogs.

Currently some of the best food in Sheffield.

Lovely pub, the staff are super friendly. The food was amazing with very generous portions

Very good food and service especially the chef server always cheerful despite the numbers of customers .

Had a lovely evening here and had the biggest meal I’ve had in a long time. It was so nice to sit next to the open fire on a misty night and eat wholesome food.

Lovely Food, friendly helpful staff

fantastic Sunday carvery to be had. wonderful staff too.

Went on 15th Oct 23. Took my family down 8 year old granddaughter's birthday because strangely enough (for an 8 year old) her favourite meal is Sunday Lunch! We all had Carvery. 3 meats on the pass. Potatoes 3 ways. Good selection of veg and thebusual rich, hot gravy. Puds clearly home made and FRESH. Veg crunchy not sloppy and wet. Service as ever was top notch from the young motivated and enthusiastic staff. We snuck a cake in and staff were only too happy to bring it I with the candles lit and BONUS! They sang happy birthday to her. The Plough never fails to deliver, whether I call in after a walk with the dog for a pie and chips, if I take a friend for a bite to eat, or - take the whole family. And they mucky pigs are to die for. Recommend 100%
