About The Rutland Arms Sheffield

The Rutland Arms is not a dedicated gay bar, but its queer identity is unusually visible and longstanding. Sheffield’s official alternative LGBTQ+ guide singles out the décor — protest placards, horror, glitter and deliberately queer visual language — as part of what makes the pub stand out.\n\nIt is a strong choice for visitors who prefer an alternative pub and good beer to a commercial club, with reliable seven-day opening and a mixed, characterful crowd.

What to expect

A colourful, alternative, queer-friendly pub with cask beer and a proudly unconventional identity.

Vibes
