Find out what Bar restaurants to try in Sheffield. Sheffield is a city in Colbert County, Alabama, United States, and is included in the Shoals metropolitan area. As of the 2010 census, the population of the city was 9,039. Sheffield is the birthplace of "country-soul pioneer" and songwriter Arthur Alexander, French horn player Willie Ruff, notable attorney, actor, former senator and presidential contender Fred Thompson, Watergate committee U.S. Senator Howell Heflin and U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell, whose father was working in nearby Athens when he was born. It sometimes is referred to as "the City of Senators" due to the births of Heflin, McConnell and Thompson within its borders. Col.

Great meal, nice bartender, we were hoping to hear what we were told was going to be a good band. At 10 the bartenders distributed ashtrays and a dozen people lit up so we lit out. A nice night ruined to satisfy a few people. Too bad.

We loved this bar for our girls trip. We went both nights. They didn't allow smoking and that is a big part of the reason we chose it. It also was slightly less "milennial" than the other bars in town. Great live music and we had really good service from the bar.

During our weekend stay at this wonderful Marriott resort, we enjoyed eating breakfast here on Saturday, 3 Aug, and on Sunday, 4 Aug 2019; late-night appetizers on Saturday; and late lunch on Sunday. For breakfast, we opted for the excellent buffet on both days. Omelets were expertly prepared on both days, and a nice selection of dishes including breakfast potatoes, fresh fruit, muffins and croissants were available. For our late-night treats, we chose two appetizers and loved them very much. We had one of the best spinach-artichoke dips and one of the best hummus preparations that we have ever had. For lunch, we opted for the buffet that had carved prime rib; a nice variety of side dishes including turnip greens, blackeye peas, mixed field greens salad, and fresh fruit; and a nice selection of desserts including banana pudding, apple cobbler, German chocolate cake, and dreamy cookies including white chocolate-macadamia nut. Numerous photographs of music stars who recorded at FAME and Muscle Shoals Studios are on display in the main dining room and in the spacious bar area and are magnificent and fun to view. The servers here were great. This is a welcoming and fun place to dine.

The Boiler Room sits in the basement of the Sticklin hotel. It's a really fun spot. There's a great bar, a performance stage, several dining tables, four bowling alleys and a small arcade-like area with ski-ball, a personal favorite. We had a great evening drinking local beer and listening to a local band and then bowling. The servers were great, but the food did not arrive hot. It comes from the upstairs kitchens of Big Bad Breakfast and maybe sits up there a bit too long. We did a get hot replacement. The bowling seemed a bit pricey at $30 an hour plus $3 for each shoe rental, but we had a really fun night.Thank you so much for your review! We love hearing about our guest's visits and will use your feedback to improve the experience we provide.

Wife had the trenchtown hoagie, daughter had flatbread pizza and I had the smoked slaw dog with loaded chips. Absolutely delicious all around. Definitely will be back. Nick was awesome. Very friendly and answered all questions. Draft beers and mixed drinks were top notch.

I stopped off at the Fredâs Dollar Store going out of business sale to browse for bargains. It was immediately obvious that they had not reached a serious âgoing out of businessâ status because everything was only five percent off. Another customer and I started an interesting conversation so he invited me to have lunch across the street at 306 Barbecue.The brisket sandwich with cold slaw and banana pudding was delicious and just the right amount of food! Our service was excellent and very attentive.We're so glad you enjoyed 306 BBQ! We hope you'll come back and dine with us again soon!

2nd & 13 Sports Bar and Grille is a great place to eat lunch when you are in Sheffield. They have $5 lunch specials Monday-Friday from 11:00-2:00 that includes chicken tenders with fries, chili cheese sliders with fries, salads, nachos, etc. The atmosphere is fun and sporty and family friendly. The restaurant is covered with televisions and sports memorabilia. As far as seating goes, there is a large bar area, high top tables, and booths. Each booth was themed. For instance, we sat at the Alabama/Auburn Iron Bowl table and we had our own individual television, as well. They have a really neat baseball themed dugout seating area, too. The atmosphere was a lot of fun. I plan to go back at night and check out the atmosphere and their specials then, as well. 2nd & 13 is a fun place and would be a great place to catch a ballgame!

Great views of the river & cliffs near McFarland Park. You can park you car dock your boat & walk over to enjoy. Itâs a good place for friends & families. The food is subpar... bar food & fried fish mostly. I lived on the beach in SC where we always had fresh fish, so my standards are pretty high for seafood dishes, so maybe I shouldnât judge too harshly. Itâs a decent place, & youâll have a nice time. Can be a wait on weekends in season.

Stayed in town for one night on business. Court Street has a number of unique restaurants including this one. A variety of beef, seafood and chicken on the menu. City Hardware is situated in a rustic setting, an old building with exposed brick and pipes. Very comfortable and friendly staff. We had a great waitress- Jessie. Shrimp and grits are very good.
