A proper pub! 8 well kept real ales and very friendly staff. A fire was roaring when I visited and it was difficult to leave because it was so warm and comfortable. Definitely worth a visit.
A superb pub, great drinks selection and nice old school lay out.
The Fat Cat is an unspoiled traditional two roomed pub. There is a wide selection of beers lager and cider including egiht cask conditioned hand-pulled real ales. The cask ales we sampled were in excellent condition. It's not a food pub but they sell the best pork pies i have tasted. There is a very nice large sheltered beer garden with a covered area. The pub is regularly featured in the camra good beer guide a visit is highly recommended.
Made my first visit to this pub in February 2024 after hearing so much about it for many years. One of the main recommendations was based on the choice of beers but, being coeliac, I wasn't sure if it would be suitable. However, I was very pleased when I was offered a list of gluten free beers to choose from - albeit in bottles and not on draught (but maybe one day?). As they had a number of Wold Top beers, I decided to try the Marmalade Porter, which was nice and refreshing even on a damp and overcast day. Didn't have any food while we were there but having heard about the gluten free options since, I would like to try it on another visit. It's a lovely old-fashioned pub with friendly staff and a place that was worthy of its recommendation so I would like to pass on the recommendation.
The Fat Cat has a long and distinguished history as a cask ale pub. And it is indeed THE best cask ale pub in Sheffield! Great staff, great selection of beers, great atmosphere, and a nice beer garden to the rear. It doesn't look like much from outside (or indeed inside), but the atmosphere is just infectious and invites communication among the punters. Of course, pub food and snacks are available, too. Carry on the good work! If you're doing a pub crawl in the Kelham Island area - and you should - don't miss out on this great establishment!
Superb pub, great beers, excellent inside and outside space. Friendly barstaff. Well situated for a pub crawl around the other pubs around Kelham Island too.
What's to say that hasn't been said. Busy, odd always looks like it needs a lick of paint. Yet a great atmosphere the best beer, inexpensive. Slightly confusing when you leave the bogs which door do I take? Great beer garden. Great area for a pint. A forever favourite.
Really great place fora pint or some food. There is plenty of space inside and a lovely beer garden outside. They have a fantastic selection of craft beer and great choice of meals on the menu. Everyone is very kind and welcoming- no problems with booking or moving a table if need be. Very reasonable prices too.
