 Colourful, welcoming vegetarian and vegan cafe |
2 St. James Street, Cathedral Square Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 2EW United Kingdom +44 114 276 3443 |
This is a colourful and sociable place to eat. There's no need to take a magazine - the notice board has bright and plentiful reading on events and organizations around Sheffield. The menu mixes cuisine from Mexico to the Mediterranean to provide tasty and filling lunches at reasonable prices. Tea and coffee are also a delight (a range of both is available) and service is friendly and accommodating. This is a lovely place to eat and drink, with an excellent range of options for vegetarians and vegans. In warm weather, outside seating is available. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Simple but sophisticated |
Millennium Galleries Arundel Gate Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 2PP United Kingdom +44 114 278 2600 |
As the name suggests, Cafe Azure is cool and blue. But what else would you expect? This restaurant/cafe is the main source of refreshment in the prestigious new Millennium Galleries and well-worth a visit in its own right. It's a high, airy venue with plenty of space. Additional tables are provided outside on Arundel Gate. The food is simple but sophisticated, with a good range of sandwiches and some attractive main courses, such as salmon and prawn fish cakes. Service can be slow but the restaurant is licensed and, given its situation, could become one of the most popular places to meet in Sheffield. The atmosphere, generally, is laid back—you will feel comfortable here even if you're on your own. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Delicious and unusual sandwiches |
7 The Wicker Arches Walker Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S3 8GZ United Kingdom +44 114 249 5555 |
Queues form every lunchtime in the shop under the railway arches at the end of the Wicker for a choice of sandwiches from bacon and brie to poached fresh salmon, from cajun chicken and lime dressing to strawberry jam. Look out for the "special" sandwich of the week, which will be advertised inside the shop. A good range of vegetarian options (such as soft cheese, apricots and walnuts) are available. Jacket potatoes, sweet and savoury pastries and the soup of the day are also offered. Tea, coffee and soft drinks are all sold, and you can eat in at the attractive loft-style cafe upstairs, which is extremely comfortable with wooden furniture and some easy chairs.

Real ale and quality food |
23 Alma Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S3 8SA United Kingdom +44 114 249 4801 |
With a fine selection of ales, which change on a regular basis, The Fat Cat is the real deal for the real-ale connoisseur. Some of the beers are home-brewed but others, such as perennial favorite Timothy Taylor's, are established favorites. The food is excellent, with an innovative menu that changes daily. Children of all ages are welcome and the atmosphere is homely, with an open fire blazing in the winter months. Inside, the pub can seem cramped but the pretty, sheltered garden offers an attractive alternative. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Intimate, friendly, Italian food |
111-115 Norfolk Street Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 2JE United Kingdom +44 114 272 0490 http://www.mamas.co.uk/ |
Established in 1968, this intimate Italian cafe/restaurant, which is based over two floors, has a rustic, slightly old-fashioned feel. Period posters decorate the walls and the tables are covered in bright decorative cloths. The restaurant is deservedly popular with theatre-goers (it is situated within a three minute walk of the Crucible and Lyceum theatres), local couples and families, so it is advisable to book in advance. The food, which is freshly prepared on the premises, more than lives up to its excellent reputation. The menu offers a wide range of home-made speciality pizzas and pastas. The speciality Della Casa offer includes pizza and soup or salad. A more adventurous "Extravaganzas" menu is also available, as is a range of salads, vegetarian options and a "Bambini" menu for under-12yrs. Also, don't forget to try the house wine.
