Sophisticated Italian restaurant |
Unit 8-10 Cambridge St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4HN United Kingdom +44 114 273 0073 http://www.askcentral.co.uk/ |
ASK Pasta and Pizza serves exactly what the name suggests, but in a rather superior way. This modern city centre restaurant is cool in the extreme, incorporating white walls, pale floors, and black wooden chairs, all of which provide sophisticated and spacious surroundings for a pleasant and relaxing meal. In this restaurant, you're made to feel comfortable whether you're with friends or on your own. Not surprisingly, there's lots of fresh pasta and pizza, but there are also options such as bruschetta with marinated tomatoes, red onions and basil - this is very good value given the quality of both food and surroundings.

Small Italian restaurant |
119 Devonshire Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S3 7SB United Kingdom +44 114 279 9394 |
This cosy, city centre-based Italian restaurant, which is decorated in the style of a traditional Italian bistro, with small tables, brightly coloured tablecloths and subdued lighting, offers a wide range of pizza, pasta and lasagne dishes (and more). Main meals cost around £9. The delicious ravioli dishes are particularly popular and the various lasagne meals are also recommended. This is an ideal place to come for a celebration or to start a night out and service is excellent. Customers can bring their own wine - but book in plenty of time, as BB's is extremely popular, especially at weekends. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Fashionable but friendly |
The Old Fire Station, Division St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4GF United Kingdom +44 114 279 2900 |
One of Sheffield's most popular bars, this converted fire station is where the city's trendsetters hang out. Exposed brick walls, high ceilings, a lot of stainless steel, very bright colours and a number of sofas all add to the very fashionable effect. However, both atmosphere and service are friendly and relaxed and the music is not obtrusive. The bar is always busy at night, especially on weekends. A full menu offers snacks, finger food, wraps and sandwiches. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Well-established Continental style bistro |
150-154 Devonshire St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S3 7SG United Kingdom +44 114 249 0720 |
Originally Mr Kite's wine bar, this small restaurant has been popular in Sheffield for years. Attracting customers of all ages, especially families and couples, it has a friendly, Continental feel; tables spill out onto the pavement in warm weather and movie posters, old-fashioned signs and mirrors decorate the walls. The atmosphere is also very relaxed and service is leisurely. The restaurant is always busy, especially at night, when live bands sometimes play. The reasonably-priced menu includes options such as peppered chicken, swordfish steak, cheese and broccoli bake and a good range of pizzas. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Smart but relaxing with impressive menu |
631-633 Ecclesall Road Sheffield, South Yorkshire S11 8PT United Kingdom +44 114 267 0565 http://www.caffeuno.co.uk/ |
Caffé Uno is part of a national chain with a deserved reputation for providing good quality food at reasonable prices. This outlet, near Hunter's Bar, provides customers with well presented, high quality Italian food such as spaghetti carbonara or pollo al rosmario (chicken with rosemary). This is a bright, modern restaurant with plenty of space and a mixed clientele. It is an excellent place to meet friends or business colleagues in the certainty that you are not going to be disappointed. It is equally good for coffee and snacks. Staff is cheerful and obliging and the restaurant is very child friendly; in fact, the attitude towards families is quite Italian. A small bar area is available for pre-dinner drinks.

Cool, calm and collected, Sheffield's airy Café Rouge offers an ideal respite from the hustle and bustle of Ecclesall Road.

Large, fashionable and sporty |
220-238 West Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4EU United Kingdom +44 114 252 5781 |
This large, fashionable pub is always busy. It is spacious and friendly but while its atmosphere is relaxed by day, it is often crowded at night, when comedy and quiz nights are scheduled. Solid wood furniture and unusual lampshades (which are made from oil-drums) add to the charm. The Cavendish attracts business people by day and a younger, student-based crowd at night. It has a games area, including three pool tables, as well as several TV screens, and is always exceptionally busy during sports events. A large beer garden is popular in warm weather. Standard bar food is also available (options include the hot n'spicy chicken burger with chips and vegetarian lasagne). Servings are generous. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Trendy sports bar and restaurant |
315-319 Ecclesall Road Sheffield, South Yorkshire S11 8NX United Kingdom +44 114 266 6333 http://www.champssportsbar.co.uk/ |
Champs, a fashionable bar and restaurant in the busiest part of Ecclesall Road, is a great place to meet before a heavy night's clubbing. The bar is decorated with sports memorabilia (such as Ayrton Senna's racing helmet and a signed photo of Frank Bruno) and is definitely a place to see and be seen. The extensive food menu is the same in both the bar and restaurant. Many of the dishes have a sporting theme: try the Gerhard Burger, for instance. The menu may range too widely for absolute authenticity, but the food is good and is well presented. A quick glance at the menu shows Italian, Chinese, New England, Mexican, Texas, Cajun, Thai and Malaysian influences. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Movie theme bar |
25-33 Charter Square Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4HS United Kingdom +44 114 275 2020 |
Although this city centre bar is not attractive from the outside, it is extremely popular with huge spotlights, speakers, raised wooden floors, mosaics and velvet couches which give it a distinctly stagey feel. The theme is 50s movies and both equipment and posters are on display, although when the large TV screens are on, they usually show live football matches rather than films. The menu offers a wide range of dishes: "Light Bites" (such as spicy Thai crab cakes or stuffed wheat tortillas) are available. Salads and sandwiches. An extensive cocktail menu is also available. Customers tend to be relatively young and the bar can get very busy, especially on weekends, but it is so large that there is very little risk of feeling claustrophobic. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Every night is party night |
128 West Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4EU United Kingdom +44 114 253 6510 |
Flares is a 70's revival bar popular with the Sheffield student population and weekend pre-club crowd. From inside and out, Flares oozes all the kitsch value you would expect from a 70's shrine. Every weekend, it attracts hundreds of revellers. The regular clientele dress not only to impress but also to regress back to an era where everything was fab and groovy. But don't worry if you threw away your flares long ago: 70's fancy dress is optional. Disco nights are not all Flares has to offer; during the day, the bar is much quieter and comfortable sofas make this a relaxing place to eat and drink. Food and special offer drinks are available daily from midday until 3p. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Relaxed atmosphere, open all day |
127-129 Devonshire St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S3 7SB United Kingdom +44 114 272 0569 |
Housed in the popular Forum Centre, this cafe attracts business people for breakfast and lunch and a louder 20-30 yrs of age crowd at night, when jazz, cocktail and house music events are organized. Long copper tables, high-backed iron chairs, a selection of framed, modern artwork and subdued lighting create a relaxed atmosphere. Separate menus are available for breakfast, lunch and the evening. Main meals are priced between £4 and £7. Options include a full English breakfast (a vegetarian option is also available), falafels with pita bread, couscous, yoghurt and salad (available from lunchtime) and nachos. Regular discounts mean that drinks such as house wine cocktail pitchers are usually very reasonably priced. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Interesting home-brewed beers |
240 West Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4EU United Kingdom +44 114 275 7805 |
This extremely large pub is located very close to the city centre and is consequently often busy. If you have been to a Firkin pub before, you'll know what to expect: Firkin jokes and colourful noticeboards litter the place, and the food is very good value. However, although the pub isn't one of the most individual pubs in Sheffield, it does stand out for being one of the largest: even at busy times, you are likely to find a seat here. The range of home-brewed beers are interesting, although they aren't to everyone's taste. A large beer garden is popular during the summer. The pub is mainly used by students during term time, but tends to be quieter in holiday periods, when twenty- and thirty-something locals come here more often. Bear in mind that background music is almost always loud: this isn't the place to come for a quiet evening drink. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Something for everyone |
227 Fulwood Road Sheffield, South Yorkshire S10 3BA United Kingdom +44 114 266 3422 |
With a healthy mix of students and non-students, this university-owned pub has recently been refurbished and now boasts an attractive heated outdoor seating area. A wide selection of draught bitters and lagers is available to choose from (or work your way through) and drinks are particularly cheap during the week. The pub is popular with a crowd of students and young locals, and this ethos is prevalent: customers are allowed to bring their own food and will even be provided with plates and cutlery if they do. The music can be loud, but this is an attractive, well-furnished pub with a lively, friendly atmosphere: if you're under thirty, or even just young at heart, you'll love it. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Friendly and traditional, with an innovative drinks menu |
94 Division St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4GF United Kingdom +44 114 272 1280 |
This small, friendly pub is renowned throughout Sheffield for its home-brewed beer and cocktail jugs. It has a traditional feel and attracts a good number of young professionals and students. Service is cheerful and welcoming and the pub is worth a visit for its innovative drinks menu alone. The "Roger and Out" beer (reputed, at 12.9 % to be the strongest beer worldwide) is a challenge to even the most hardened of drinkers. The beer doesn't taste as strong as it is, so caution is advised. It is served only by the third of a pint, and customers aren't allowed more than three glasses. Certificates are issued to those who manage this much! A full bar menu is available all day. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The Halcyon, which attracts a young, style-conscious crowd, is distinctly minimalist in style. Spindly wrought iron chairs and small tables are provided in the main seating area and a second large bay has standing room only. This is still one of the relatively few bars in Sheffield to have a late license (to 1a). Food is served from 6p until midnight and is in keeping with the minimalist style (options include vegetable dim sum with plum sauce and skewered tempura prawns). Review © 2007, Wcities |

The large bar and separate restaurant area are stylishly decorated, and there is an emphasis on stainless steel and wood.

There are daily specials and a good selection of vegetarian food is always included. The standard of food is usually good although it is not exceptional. Various coffees, teas and soft drinks are also available and you can include surfing time on your bill: internet connection costs about £1.30 for fifteen minutes, although you can also buy "bundles" of net time, which works out more cheaply. Alternatively, just have a coffee or a juice and read the newspaper. The cafe is popular with students and and fills up with young professionals at lunchtimes. Takeaways are also available.

Loud, lively Italian restaurant |
290 Glossop Rd Sheffield, South Yorkshire S10 2HS United Kingdom +44 114 272 8260 |
This large restaurant, which is Italian with Spanish and Mexican connections, is usually very busy, with plenty of atmosphere. The décor and lighting are bright and have traditional Italian bistro overtones; each table has candles and a decorative plastic tablecloth. Conversation tends to be quite loud and the background music is turned up to compete. The food isn't outstanding but it is perfectly reasonable and includes the usual range of pastas and pizzas at £5-£10, as well as some more unusual options, such as sardines in tomato sauce and Mexican fajitas. Eat here if you're with a crowd or if you've already had a few drinks on West Street - the restaurant is close to town and is open until midnight. Large groups are welcome - but don't expect a peaceful evening. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Bistro-style restaurant specializing in seafood |
271 Sharrow Vale Road Sheffield, South Yorkshire S11 8ZF United Kingdom +44 114 266 1069 |
The Mediterranean is one of perhaps half a dozen Sheffield restaurants which have deservedly earned a regional, not just a local, reputation. It specializes in interesting fish dishes, although alternatives (including vegetarian options) are available. Although the theme is Mediterranean, the emphasis is on Spain and, if you don't want the full monty, this is one of the few places in South Yorkshire where you can find genuine tapas. The restaurant is intimate with subdued lighting, candles and a distinctly Spanish feel. Music plays softly throughout the evening. It is popular with couples and with locals of all ages, who often eat here in small groups. A typical meal might include a pan-fried quail salad starter followed by an unusual and delicious dish called zarazuella - a sort of Spanish fish stew. Most of the waiters are Spanish and service is attentive but also laid back: you will not feel rushed. This is a great place to relax and think about that next holiday in the sun!

Open the door of Nonna's and you could almost be in northern Italy: real Italian coffee, pasta, wine, olives, prosciutto, and even Italian newspapers are all available. A coffee bar, restaurant and deli are shoehorned into what used to be a butcher's shop: this means the restaurant is small and booking is essential, but it is well worth the effort. Real Italian food and the freshest ingredients are cooked to perfection. In all, Nonna's is a little gem—almost too good to share! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Busy student pub near Sheffield Hallam University |
276 Ecclesall Road Sheffield, South Yorkshire S11 8PE United Kingdom +44 114 268 8031 |
This is a busy student pub on fashionable Ecclesall Road. Recently refurbished with a large, open-plan drinking area, this is not a venue for the shy and retiring. It can be quiet in the afternoons, but come evening, numbers and volume rise relentlessly. Do yell into your mobile phone, do greet your friends by screaming at them from the far side of the bar. If you're extrovert or young at heart, you'll love it. Beer is Stones, Worthington and Caffreys plus premium lagers. Food is served 12 noon to 7p and is excellent value, though the choice is not wide. Snacks (cheeseburger, filled jackets, etc) are all available from about £1.50. Main courses (fish & chips, mixed grill, lasagne) are from about £2.99. An outside drinking area and limited parking facilities are provided. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Elegant pizza parlour (and jazz club) |
124 Devonshire St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S3 7SF United Kingdom +44 114 275 2755 |
Stainless steel, light polished wood and white walls with blocks of vibrant colour all help to make this large, modern restaurant feel both stylish and relaxed. Tables are discreetly arranged and customers often seem to be discussing business or on a date, although the restaurant is popular with families in the early evenings. Good provision is also made for groups, which tend to be seated on the upper floor where possible. The wide range of freshly-baked Italian style pizzas (priced from about £6)includes pizza veneziana, with raisins and pine kernels, pizza alle nocci with gorgonzola, spinach and walnuts and the pizza fiorentina, a vegetarian alternative which includes spinach and a free range egg. A few pasta dishes are also available and the excellent sweet menu includes chocolate fudge cake and luxury ice-cream bombes. Live jazz is played on the upper floor approximately once a month (see the website for details). Booking is not usually available and this can mean that the bar area is crowded and that service sometimes feels rushed, but the impressive quality of the food invariably compensates for this.

Santino's is so good it has expanded to take over the shop next door - and it still fills up quickly! This is definitely one restaurant where booking is advisable, particularly for mid-evening and weekend meals. White walls and murals create an almost Roman feel. The restaurant is owned and run by Italians and this shows in the menu, which runs far beyond pasta and pizza. You could start with a selection of cured meats served with marinated peppers (antipasto con pepperocino) and, for the main course, try vitello valdostana (scallops of veal cooked with mushrooms and white wine). Service is attentive but the atmosphere is laid back: this is a place to relax and enjoy your evening. Review © 2007, Wcities |

UK Mama was the first African/Caribbean restaurant in Sheffield and it still maintains an excellent reputation for providing the genuine article when it comes to food. Start with opirima (fried plantains) and follow that with beef and okra, or gungo pea stew with minced meat. The restaurant is quite small and booking is recommended. The décor is typically Afro-Caribbean, with bright murals and photos of black icons including Lennox Lewis and Prince Naseem Hamed. Note that service can be a bit slow at the busiest times and that wheelchair access may be difficult due to limited space. All dishes are also available as a takeaway option, and there is free delivery within a three mile radius. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Traditional pub in very trendy area |
73-75 Division St Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 4GE United Kingdom +44 114 279 9339 |
This traditional pub, which retains wooden panelling and furniture, is situated in the very popular Devonshire Quarter. Surrounded by modern bars and cafes, the Yorick continues to offer a traditional welcome and environment. Clientele is varied, so at most times it's a good spot for a quiet chat. However, this is an area where a lot of clubbers meet, so expect it to be a lot busier at weekends. Beer is Boddingtons and Magnet and a range of cocktails is also available. There is a quiz on Wednesdays and a disco on Friday and Saturday nights. Otherwise, there are few concessions to modern trends - no food is offered and credit cards are not accepted.
