Retford to Sheffield Real Ale Trail
Join us for a day out enjoying the hostelries on the Retford to Sheffield Real Ale Trail.
We'll meet up on the 10:39 from Sheffield to Retford that gets in at 11:21. A couple of the Retford pubs will be open by the time we get there and we have included the price of your first drink. Then we'll start to make our way back to Sheffield one station at a time on the trains that run approximately one each hour (until after 11pm) stopping at the intervening stations.
As we travel along the rail line, we'll encounter various micropubs, pubs and taprooms that have emerged as popular destinations for beer enthusiasts.
Not all the pubs are right by the stations and some are up to ten minutes’ walk away.
We'll stop somewhere on route for some lunch.
Includes
- your first drink
Extras
- your travel ticket (see the section headed Getting There for ticket details)
- additional drinks

Location & Itinerary
We'll stop somewhere on route for a bite to eat.
We intend to meet on the 10:39 train from Sheffield to Retford. It is likely that people will want to join the train at different places depending on where they are coming from so hopefully we should all be together by the time it arrives in Retford due at 11:21.
We intend to travel to Retford on the 10:39 from Sheffield, or you could join the train at any of the intermediate stations on route to Retford, or if it's easier for you, just meet us at Retford Station when the train arrives (due at 11:21am).
