Fagan's pub in Sheffield city centre has applied to extend its opening hours.
The historic venue, based on Broad Lane, is one of the city's oldest pubs and has been part of Sheffield's drinking and music scene since the 18th century. Over the years it has attracted well-known local figures, including Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders and Pulp guitarist Richard Hawley.
The building is also recognisable for its artwork. Sheffield artist Pete McKee decorated the side of the pub with his mural titled "The Snog".
Now, the management of the well-known live music spot are seeking changes to how late it can operate. Sheffield City Council has received an application to alter Fagan's premises licence.
If approved, the changes would allow the pub to close at 2:30am every day. The application also requests permission for the sale of alcohol, along with live and recorded music, to continue until 2am daily.
A public notice issued on 25th December outlines the next steps in the process. It states that interested parties or responsible authorities can make written representations about the application to the Licensing Service until 12th January.
Permission for a 7-storey apartment block has been granted next to Fagan's pub on Broad Lane in Sheffield city centre. The landlord of the pub had objected to the proposal on the grounds that if future residents were to object to noise from the pub his licence may face restrictions.
Members of the Sheffield & District branch of the Campaign for Real Ale have voted Fagans in Sheffield city centre their June Pub Of The Month award winner, and the certificate presentation was recently made at the pub by branch Chairman Dave Williams.
The Pub Of The Month awards are designed to highlight those pubs across Sheffield serving good real ale in friendly and comfortable surroundings. Fagans scores will on all points, with beer quality always top notch and a good atmosphere.
More about the pub is contained in the short pub of the month article from Beer Matters reproduced below:
Tucked away just off West Street and home to probably the best pint of Tetley Bitter in the area it is safe to say that, although it is well known by any self respecting Sheffielder, Fagan's is one of the finest hidden gems in the city centre.
Tom and Barbara Boulding have been running Fagan's for many a year now and can still be seen at either side of the bar keeping their customers entertained with wistful insights and anecdotes.
As well as the Tetley Bitter, Abbeydale Moonshine is also available. Just like the former this is always kept in tip-top condition. This may have something to do with the 'Guild of Master Cellarmen' award which can be seen close to the bar.
Some of the finest home cooked food comes from the kitchen. Not only is it value for money but you definitely wouldn't leave hungry (try the all day breakfast if you dare!)
In the back room regular traditional folk music can be heard almost every night and adorning the walls are some of the establishments better known customers. But whether you host your own hootenanny or produced one of the best albums of last year you are sure to be given a warm welcome!
