Hide AdThe awards recognise the bars and bartenders that ‘set for standard for hospitality and innovation across the UK’.
Despite being open for just over year, the popular bar beat off competition from Satan’s Whiskers and Scout in London.
The award follows Public claiming the ‘best place to drink’ prize in the prestigious Observer Food Monthly Awards held in London in October last year.
Public is the fourth venue from James O’ Hara and James Hill, who also run Picture House Social on Abbeydale Road, plus The Great Gatsby and Daisy’s on Division Street.

There are just 36 seats in the intimate venue, which specialises in small plates, and cocktails listed under ‘public holiday, public footpath, public awareness, public liability or public health.’ Read more at: https://www.thestar.co.uk/whats-on/food-and-drink/this-sheffield-bar-has-just-been-named-the-best-place-to-drink-in-the-uk-1-9403129
