The Eight Foot Way pub in Parson Cross has closed temporarily for a major refurbishment and is set to reopen shortly with a new look.
The pub closed its doors on 26th January and will reopen on 18th February following an investment of more than £309,800. The refurbishment is aimed at updating the well-known community venue while keeping its role at the heart of the local area.
When it reopens, the Eight Foot Way will operate as a Marston's Two Door Pub, with two clearly defined spaces. These will include a locals' bar and a family lounge, separated by a central partition. The layout is designed to allow different groups to use the pub comfortably at the same time.
A dedicated Family Lounge will be introduced as part of the renovation. This area has been designed to cater for guests of all ages and will be supported by a menu of pub favourites. The existing kids' menu will return, offering smaller portions for children over five, along with a build-your-own option for under-fives.
The refurbishment will also include a new bar area intended as a space for local customers to enjoy drinks and food. The bar will show key sporting fixtures while maintaining the pub's familiar atmosphere.
Popular offers will remain in place after reopening, including a weekly Friday deal where customers can buy a bottle of Prosecco for £13.99.
The Eight Foot Way is located in the Parson Cross and Longley residential area, just off Chaucer Road in the north of Sheffield. It serves as a local meeting place for residents looking to spend time with family and friends.
The project will also create seven new jobs, increasing the pub's team from 19 to 26 employees.
General manager Ben Smith said the refurbishment will introduce the Two Door Pub concept to the community, offering spaces suited to different occasions, from watching live sport to relaxing in the family lounge.
The Eight Foot Way is one of more than 1,300 pubs and bars operated by Marston's across England, Scotland and Wales.
We have added a new listing for the Eight-Foot Way pub located at 2 Chaucer Road in Parson Cross. The Eight-Foot Way is something of a rarity in that it is a new-build pub.
The Eight-Foot Way derives its name from a letter from the Parish Clerk to County Hall in Wakefield from January 1954, when the area was still part of the West Riding of Yorkshire. Referred to in the letter were the pathways between houses on Parson Cross, Wordsworth Avenue, Colley Avenue and Rokeby Road, known as "Eight-foot Pathways". This name was given to these walkways by architects of the housing estates and the paths are still known as "Eightfoots" by local residents.
