CAMRA Pubs of the Year 2026 - the Sheffield pubs which topped the list this year

CAMRA’s (Campaign for Real Ale) Sheffield and District branch have voted on the top pubs in the city.

The ale aficionados have put their expertise to the test and named the top local watering holes by area.

Each area of Sheffield has been offered a first and second spot, with a total winner set to be decided later in the year.

A spokesperson for the local CAMRA branch said: “Many congratulations to all the venues.

“Award presentation dates will be advised in due course.

“All winners will now be visited and scored against strict CAMRA criteria to decide on the overall branch Pub of the Year, which will again be announced in due course.”
