Paul Harrison of the Commercial Pub commented: "For some time we have wanted some sort of mural on the exterior wall that people can see on their approach to the pub, we considered famous Sheffield celebrities such as Jarvis Cocker, Sean Bean, Jessica Ennis Hill and Helen Sharman and then celebrities with an attachment to North Sheffield such as Alex Turner and Mr.Ronksley.
"But we decided that Jimbo and his Ale & Audio podcast was the right fit for us, mainly because everybody else turned us down.”
Host of the podcast Jimbo commented: “I am over the moon that the Commercial Pub invited me to have a mural of the podcast logo on the side of their iconic building. Personally I wanted it to be of my face but naturally the pub and the authorities were worried about passing traffic and causing potential road accidents”
The Commercial Pub has recently been named North Sheffield’s pub of the year by CAMRA Sheffield and is hugely popular for its chip butty nights with a big selection of toppings and weekly specials plus a on the bar a top range of ales on cask & keg as well as its huge selection of spirits.
