Being one of Sheffield’s main night spots many students are attracted by its cool and famous club vibe as well as its cheap drinks but it also has a large clientele of artists and the unemployed too, according to the website. With plenty of live gigs introducing up and coming stars this is one venue not to miss.

There’s a selection of club nights to choose from including Shag on Monday’s and Teenage Kicks on Tuesdays. Visit the website for information on more club nights and upcoming live gigs.

The venue is actually an old church, with a sleek and stylish interior. The cocktail and wine menu is extensive and the music is a mixture of pop, RnB and cheese which for a night out can be a good combination. With a cool vibe and a sophisticated crowd, the Pitcher & Piano located in the Lace Market in Nottingham is well worth a visit.

See the website for more information on the company, other venues across the country and the menus.
