The Cricket Inn
About
The Cricket Inn is a historic pub tucked onto Penny Lane in Totley, Sheffield. Dating back to the 18th century, the venue derives its name from the nearby cricket pitch and overlooks the scenic Blacka Moor. Visitors are greeted with a warm, family‑friendly atmosphere and a menu that highlights local and seasonal ingredients, from hearty roasts on Sundays to a Garden Kitchen that serves pizza and drinks under the open sky. The pub boasts a curated selection of Thornbridge beers, a small but well‑picked wine list, and a cozy fire‑pit area that draws crowds in cooler months. The inn’s accolades include the AA’s “Pick of the Pubs” award. Whether you’re a football fan, a casual drinker, or a couple looking for a relaxed meal, The Cricket Inn offers a welcoming, accessible experience with a range of great food and drink options. Night‑time patrons benefit from the pub’s late‑night wash‑out, while families can enjoy the kids’ menu and large outdoor seating. With free parking and wheelchair accessibility, the inn serves both locals and visitors alike.
