3 moos

What's your name?
Mat

Where is it?
The Yew Tree Inn, Loxley New Road, Malin Bridge, Sheffield

What's the number?
0114 234 3398

What's the grub like, then?
To say that this is what you might call a "George Whitebread" type of pub (i.e. pints of bitter and whippets) the menu here actually boasts things other than steak and ale pie.

Though this might not be nouvelle cusine, the food is well prepared and of good quality. All in all a superior form of pub meal.

What did you drink?
A pint of Guiness, and not a bad one at that.

What's the crowd like?
The fairly average crowd of families out for a Sunday lunch and as it was a warm day plenty of men wearing shorts who really shouldn't.

And the vibe?
Fine. You have the odd staring bloke in the corner who can't decide whether he wants to fight you or not because you're not wearing a football shirt, but it's pretty relaxed otherwise.

Anything else you'd like to say?
Think before you order the combo platter as a starter if you have less than at least three people to tackle it. Unlike the similar platters offered by places like a certain well known chain of American pizza restaurants, the damn thing is huge.

Value for money?
Starters average around £4 and main courses go from £5 to about £9. And you do get a good sized portion for your money.

What's your name?

Where is it?
Yew Tree Inn
Loxley New Rd
Sheffield
S6 4NG

What's the number?
0114 234 3398

What's the grub like, then?
The food at the Yew Tree is allways great, with a varied menu, suitable for everyone, good size portions which are priced fairly and food cooked and prepared as you like. Its also very tasty!

What did you drink?
I had myself a pint of tetleys smooth ale, and although this beer has not allways tickled my tastebuds (more of a real ale lover) I can say that it went down a treat. Lovely on a hot day!

What's the crowd like?
The staff at the Yew Tree are very professional yet very friendly. they will go out of there way for you if need be.

And the vibe?
There was a nice relaxed atmosphere in the upstairs bar (where the restaurant area is) with your usual regulars sat at the bar. It was the same downstairs, although the music was a playing a little louder, but you can play what you like on the juke box as it has over 2 million tracks (One of those computer touch screen juke boxes)!

Anything else you'd like to say?
All in all this is a fantastic pub, and I will keep coming as often as possible!!!

Value for money?
This food here is excellent value for money and makes up for the price of drinks, which are priced fairly but a little more expensive than other pubs in the area.

I live here n i think its fab

Bash (YTMA)
Love the food, mixed grill is really good apart from the lamb chops that were pink! strange that when i asked for it all to be "well done"...good place to be at the weekends, especially Sunday nights when it gets packed with locals getting merry on "Diesel".....

Dee
