The city boasts a mix of cosy cafés, fine dining restaurants and international street food vendors. From independent, locally sourced establishments to Michelin-starred restaurants, there is something to suit every taste and budget.
Sheffield has been crowned the UK’s Foodie Capital! Foodies can explore Cambridge Street Collective, Europe’s largest purpose-built food hall with over 20 different vendors offering culinary delights from around the world.
Each area of Sheffield has its own distinct personality and charm. Sheffield has a growing Indie scene which is experienced in many areas of the city. Kelham Island was named one of the world's 50 coolest neighbourhoods and houses everything from indie shopping arcades to galleries and microbreweries.
