I really miss the Cocked Hat when it was in full flow with decent real ale on.

If you're looking for somewhere for a decent pint - there isn't - end of.

It's either Fara's for a pint of fizz or inside the ground for a pint of Fizz.

Rant Over

Faras closed two weeks ago due to brewery withdrawal.

The Cocked Hat is open very rarely. If at all.

Have a beer in town first I'd say.

Didn't know that, cheers Dr B.

Is the Greyhound open - does it open on Sundays?

I went in the Carlton which is not that far away a couple of years back but it was very Royston Veseyesqe though (I mean the place not full of fat Geordies telling racist/sexist jokes) seemed to be a locals pub for local people

All we need is a bar like they had on the corner of the Wembley car park for the 3 Nations.

Mrs Airborne has a Makro card - let's buy beer at £15 a case and sell if for £3 a can like they were doing.
Mind you there was no shortage of suckers buying - I mean customers

Sad to say I gave them quite a bit of revenue. Damn sight cheaper than in the ground anyway.

building the tower of empty cans kept us entertained for a full 5 mins

In response to the original question, no.

As we're leaving Leigh at 11, it sounds like it could be another fun drive around to find a pub that's open

There will be pubs open within a reasonable distance (15 min walk) of DVS.
There is the Noose and Gibbet on Broughton lane bang opposite the Sheffield Arena.

The Wentworth is also opposite the Arena on Attercliffe itself - this is one of those chain pubs that does chain pub food i.e. nuked to death by microwave but it is a pub.

Just been past Don Valley.

Lights on at the Greyhound and doors open so should be open Friday eves

Used to love the pubs near the Valley on sudays. They all had roasties and yorkie puds on the bar when we went.

If you go the bottom of this page there is a map with local pubs on and the trams stops as well www.footballgroundguide.com/rotherham_united/ Faras is now closed though...

Cocked Hat will be open, hopefully.

Don Valley Hotel and Greyhound just round the corner are still there.
