Revolution has moved to the West One Development since this review was written - Greedy Cow

Part of Sheffield’s growing ‘bar’ culture, it prides itself on stocking loads of different flavours of vodka, ranging from the exotic to the downright dirty.

Here you can listen to DJs playing some slinky grooves every night, and perhaps even find yourself lounging among the luxurious mammoth leather sofas.

The drinks are a little pricey, so sticking to the cocktail pitchers and regular special offers is often a good idea (so to speak).

If you’re looking for somewhere that’s smart, cool, a bit funky, and absolutely rammed every weekend, Revolution is a pretty good choice.

I never really used to be funky and used to go to traditional pubs like the graduate. However I am now looking good (due to finding love and getting a haircut), so I now go to pubs catering for the Beautiful people and Revolution looks after me and my new friends just fine!

Not a bad place, the bouncers need changing I think! Good selection of drinks not got round to tasting all the different types of vodka yet! Not enough seating, bouncers always let too much people in!

fran
nice if you can get a seat if not loadz of odd places to stand and look stupid. also is very dark so you often end up trippin over something not a dood look.

It truely rock, and even better than that it is less than 100m from my door!

Eddy 'The Stoat' O'Sullivan
"Ice ice baby, ice ice baby", rapped the confused Vanilla Ice back in those rave crazy nineties. And indeed he could have been referring to this jamming crib, as the beer pumps are indeed terribly iced up - quite amazing. 'Get them racks in' is a shout that can be heard echoing around this kicking jive-hole when The Stoat's in town, he sure loves his cola cube vodka's. Oh yeah, and Mrs O'Sullivan likes the funboy behind the bar.

Jake the Muss
This place really is great, a cool crowd and plenty of choice over the drinks, from the mundane to the downright filthy.

Many hazy memories of this gaffe due to copious amounts of Vodka and waking up home the day wondering how i made it home. Last time in had a delectable South African lady who was serving up the racks, she was an asset to the company. On the flip side a male member of staff (funboy) announced he was bored of serving racks couldn't we drink something else? On this note we pointed out the name of the establishment in which he worked and took our custom (£8.00 a rack drunk every 2 minutes) elsewhere. To summarise some staff tight some tasty, Vodka delightful and fresh, would i go back? OOOOHHHHHHH YES PLEASE.

If you wanna get trollied, go to the Rev. Vodka flows freely (or nearly so) and in a multitude of advanced, E-number heavy flavours. For a pre-clubbing session its good, if you can stand the heavy and crowded atmosphere. Usually busy and with obtuse bouncers, it's a trendy-boys bar or where the ladies go to get smashed. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed being there - I just couldnt afford to drink much...

Dave
Not too bad very modern full of the yonger crowed ,The bar staff warn you about the price of the Hoegaarden before you buy it £££££££

Ed Smith
Possibly the most aggresive and unfriendly bouncers I have ever come across. Liked the selection of flavoured Vodka though and the bar staff were nice.

Hideous beyond all reason
