An excellent small entertainment venue on leadmill road in Sheffield. Popular with the local student community, locals and visitors. Went there with friends to see the band British Sea Power and had a super night out.
The place itself is divided into three sections each with it's own bar,it was pretty busy on the night but we had no trouble getting served and I found all the staff very friendly and helpful,the price of the drinks are very reasonable as well.
It's also has a good clean and well maintained restrooms.
The venue's not large enough to get lost in, but can hold enough people to create a great atmosphere.
If you enjoy live music you'll really enjoy this venue,i found the acoustics pretty good too!.
It discribes itself as a legendary nightclub,arts ,comedy,theatre,film,and live music venue which i think is a fair description,and so has a lot to offer. Has some music history attached to it being a spring board for a lot of up and coming bands over the year's Pulp being just one of many,it's been open since 1980.
We drove into the city parked up at nunnery square and rode the tram into the city centre,had a bite to eat (lots of places to eat) had a drink in a local pub then onto the Leadmill which was easy to find.
I've not been here when it's in nightclub mode,they have resident DJs.
If you enjoy live music here's a place to get up front and personal.
An absolutely brilliant place for a night out recommended!
