A well-known Sheffield city centre pub has opened its doors again following a major investment and extensive refurbishment. The Bessemer, named after steelmaking pioneer Henry Bessemer, has undergone a six-figure transformation and is now back in business with a fresh new look and upgraded features.

Originally known as The Fountain Bar, the Stonegate-owned venue has increased its capacity with the addition of new booth seating and has unveiled a brand new sports area upstairs. The revamped space is designed for guests to enjoy games like pool, darts, and beer pong, with the added bonus of free pool every Thursday.

For sports fans, the Bessemer now boasts HD screens showing Sky Sports and TNT Sports, ensuring visitors can catch all the biggest matches in comfort.

The pub officially reopened on 18th July with an evening of rock and roll bingo and a live DJ playing chart hits to celebrate the relaunch.

General Manager Stuart Grimson said the renovation marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Bessemer. "I'm really looking forward to everyone seeing the refresh - the pub is looking amazing!" he said. "The new interior will give the whole pub a lift and the improved DJ lighting is going to make our Saturday afternoon parties better than ever.

"This renovation is marking the start of a new chapter for us at the Bessemer and I can't wait to welcome back guests, both old and new, to see all that we've been working on behind the scenes.

"The refresh is all about giving our guests an improved experience. We know how much people love the Bessemer so hopefully they'll love all the work we've done."

With its upgraded amenities and fresh energy, the Bessemer is ready to reclaim its spot as one of Sheffield's go-to pubs in the heart of the city.

We have removed the Fountain bar on Leopold Street and replaced it with Bessemer, which opened in late 2009.
