Recommendations for a 'back street' garage in Sheffield?

I am looking for a reliable, decent, back street type garage in Sheffield to change the discs and pads on my daughter's Polo. The type without 'free' coffee and wifi but not charging £150 per hour would be good.

She lives in the Crookesmoor area, so west side of the city, preferably.
 
Sign up to one of the local Facebook groups, there will be a mobile type mechanic who will do that for you on the drive. Don't think the chap i use covers that far out from Mansfield.
 
I don't do Facebook and she has no off-road parking.
I know there are a few from Sheffield on here, so hoping someone has a 'go to' garage for simple things like this.
 
Not relevant really, but down here in Surrey I have my "go to" garage - a decent, small independent - plus there is always the main dealer for the odd thing (keys and recalls are the only things I have needed a BMW main dealer for so far). A year or so back I discovered a proper "back street" garage - actually recommended by my go to independent for a job they didn't want to do... small council-owned unit, hard to get your car in past the handful of rusting, semi-dismantled pieces of crap outside, one man band. Not used him since, but great to know he's there.
 
The only two I've heard of (not used though), and both from years ago, are Quarry Motors (famous BMW breaker) and Autohaus.

Don't know if either are still running, but IIRC Quarry Motors (servicing part) weren't far from you.

Mini Service Centre - Sheffield's Only Independent Mini Serving Garage

The Mini Service Centre in Sheffield is the only independent Mini Serving Garage in Sheffield. From Brakes to Air Conditioning, we have you are covered.

There's also AUTOTECNIC, but they're all the way up near Meadowhall...although I suppose you could take the opportunity for some early Christmas shopping.

Even my local BMW independent in Merseyside is £90/hour now.

If my geography is correct you are welcome to get her to call in here on her next trip home and I’ll do them for you?

Cheers.
I could do them myself but she won't be coming back much before Xmas and I want them done sooner.
 
According to my son who was at university in Sheffield he reckons Carnalls Autocentre always seemed ok (he never used it so can’t personally vouch for it) it is the Crooks area of Sheffield
