The Scene – A huge antique bar dominates the main room, with cozy, elevated seating nooks along a couple of walls. Two more rooms--one with another bar and a fireplace, the other with a pool table--follow in maze-like fashion. The beer garden is big and comfortable, with lots of seating and ivy-covered walls; it's packed on nice afternoons. – – The Draw – Sheffield's takes beer seriously, in a humorous kind of way; among the many specials is the Bad Beer of the Month. Included in the 80 beers generally offered are some of the bar's own brews, including a flavorful…

Shady!!!
by HayleyP at Citysearch
I was visiting this establishment on Saturday night and i left my phone on a table in the back. I know, stupid mistake. I went back like 4 minutes after I left (I live at roscoe and sheffield and I just made it home), and the woman at the door would not let me check. I heard a guy yell something excitedly about an iphone and i told the woman that my phone, in fact, was an iphone. I told her that the phone he was yelling about must be mine. She said that he was actually referring to a phone that was lost 6 hours ago. Sounded pretty jazzed about a lost phone from 6 hours ago....SHADY SHADY SHADY. People, don't leave your phone in shefflield's in Lakeview. It is not a friendly neighborhood bar.
Thanks!
- Pros: Love to steal iphones
- Cons: You will have your iphone stolen

Horrible All-U-Can-Drink
by ChiTown82 at Citysearch
This place had a good area sectioned off, but it was a $38 dollar all you can drink and it only included well-drinks. No redbull, no shots. More importantly you HAD to pay the $38 to get into the section. It was a birthday party and some people were already hammered and didn't need the package. I just wanted to have 2 or 3 beers and not stay from 9-12 and they wouldn't let me into the area because I refused to buy a wrist band. What would they do it a pregnant woman or a designated driver was there for the birthday party? I gave them some lip about the policy and I got thrown out. I'll never go back.
- Cons: Well Drinks; Rip-Off

Good stuff! Chill place with nice staff and tasty food...
by sluggy at Citysearch
My friend and I were both first-timers to Sheffield's after work on a random weekday. We had some drinks, ordered some food - my burger and fries were both super tasty, especially for bar food! - and bottom line, it was a great little hangout. It was a bit of a quiet night, but you could tell the place gets rockin'. The staff was very nice, guys and girls alike. We both left saying we'll be back!
- Pros: Friendly staff, unpretentious atmosphere, good food
- Cons: It was cold so we couldn't experience the patio...not that that's a true "con" :)
The Details on Sheffield's
Where to Sit:
See an outdoor table with occupants, but some space to spare? More than likely, they'll be happy to scooch over and share, if asked politely.
Know Before You Go:
On weekday afternoons when the weather is nice, expect the patio to fill by 6pm or 7pm. But there's a constant ebb and flow, so you may not have to wait long to score an outside seat.
When to Go:
Hit the jackpot every afternoon with 4 dollar lunch specials from 11:30am-6pm in the backroom.
