The Porter Cottage is a bar and live-music pub on Sharrow Vale Road in Sharrow/Nether Edge, Sheffield (S11), at the heart of the local community. It runs a busy week of grassroots music: an open jam night every Wednesday from 8pm, live bands on Thursdays from 9pm, plus live music every Sunday, with a Thursday quiz rounding out the calendar. Drinks span a changing cask ale and craft kegs from Beavertown and Camden, and the pub is known for a nationally acclaimed alternative jukebox that champions local bands. With a house PA welcoming originals and covers in an intimate ~80-capacity room, it's a genuine fixture of Sheffield's neighbourhood music scene.
