Crosspool Tavern


Traditional carvery and pub
486 Manchester Road
Sheffield, South Yorkshire S10 5DT
United Kingdom
+44 114 266 2113
This traditional, long-established pub is very popular with Sheffield locals, many of whom make a weekly pilgrimage here for Sunday lunch. There are separate entrances for the pub and restaurant, although once inside you can move freely from one area to the other through an interconnecting door. The pub serves Bass ales, and offers a dozen or so bar meals at about £4, such as lasagne and chips or fish and vegetables. The carvery, which is more spacious and feels more recently decorated, offers a starter and English roast dinner for only £6 and is open for lunch and dinner. Be aware that the carvery soon fills up, especially at weekends; if you want to eat here, it is advisable to arrive early.

Lynne's Plaice


Traditional cafe in the city centre
252 Midland Road
Sheffield, South Yorkshire S71 4DN
United Kingdom
+44 1226 72 2479
This is an attractive, very traditional cafe, which serves reasonably-priced, good quality food to eat in or take away. A wide range of sandwiches, jacket potatoes, sausage rolls and pasties, hot meals, tea, coffee and soft drinks is on the menu. There are tables on the pavement outside the cafe, and on a sunny day, this is a most pleasant place to sit, as Surrey Street is located right next to Fargate, Sheffield's main pedestrian shopping area.

Old Grindstone


Spacious local with plenty to offer
3 Crookes
Sheffield, South Yorkshire S10 1UA
United Kingdom
+44 114 266 0322
The Old Grindstone has broad appeal, but also retains its local character, with an open fire and old-fashioned furnishings. It boasts up to eight cask ales, including Kelham Island Gold and a surprisingly good (for a local pub) range of coffees and wines. Food is served at lunchtimes and in the early evenings; the quality is usually good and there is a real emphasis on local produce and dishes (such as Henderson's meat and potato pie). A varied programme of entertainment is also provided; live jazz is played on a Monday night and the excellent games room boasts three pool tables. But the pub is large and if all you want is a quiet evening drink by the fire, the well-planned interior can also accommodate that.

Rafters


Popular, innovative and excellent value
220 Oakbrook Road
Sheffield, South Yorkshire S11 7ED
United Kingdom
+44 114 230 4819
You might easily miss this unusually-shaped restaurant - but that would be a tragedy! Housed upstairs in a seemingly nondescript building just round the corner from Nether Green Post Office, it features some of the most interesting and innovative cooking in South Yorkshire and has a justly excellent reputation in Sheffield. Try something unusual, like filo samosas with curried monkfish, or something traditional - such as braised lamb shank with root vegetables. Whichever route you take you will be pleasantly surprised by both taste and price - it won't cost much more than £25 per head for three courses. This is definitely not one to miss. Service is helpful but not intrusive and the décor is contemporary. The restaurant is popular with local couples as well as with small groups of professionals and business visitors.
