My husband and I were excited to visit this local cafe for the first time as a nice treat. We walked in and weren't sure whether to help ourselves to a table or wait to be seated. We went to the counter where neither the proprietor or server acknowledged us. No "I'll be with you shortly" or "take a seat it's table service." Both staff members looked directly at me on several occasions but said nothing when i tried to get their attention. We stood there for a while before my husband opted to sit at what we thought was an available table. No- one came to speak to us at the table either. In the end we got the sense we weren't welcome or perhaps our face didn't fit. We opted to stand up and offer our table to a young family who were also waiting to be seated and were successfully acknowledged by the proprietor. Perhaps again supporting the theory of who's face does and doesn't fit who knows. It was a real shame- the decor of the place was lovely and the cakes on the counter looked nice but sadly no opportunity to try them. We really like supporting local businesses but I'm not sure if we'd return to try again. We went elsewhere in the end.

Would definitely recommend this little Cafe; food, service and atmosphere were all excellent. After a morning of house hunting and viewings, needed a place to sit and recharge, walked past this little gem and went in. Found a seat (there aren't many tables, which is part of its atmosphere and charm), and expect this to be a favourite hangout for locals) ordered a coffee (was very good) and a granola bowl (which was excellent). A busy little cafe, but food came out quickly, and always with a smile. Great place, excellent value for money, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic little cafe. We didn't order fiod but the broth/soup looked amazing. We will definitely be coming back after todays visit. Coffee/mocha was lovely and its very popular and well ran.

When you walk into Cafe #9 it’s like you’re transported into an alternate universe. The chill, calm atmosphere radiates from the outside, but I felt it like a hug when I stepped through the doors. Soft music, ambient lighting, a plethora of plants and knick knacks coupled with gorgeous wooden furniture makes me want to stay here all day. I had an oat milk flat white and a mini cinnamon roll warmed up. The coffee was hearty, smooth, and very fairly priced. A new favourite place of mine

Excellent coffee and great vegan treats, like the oatmeal + ginger cookie. Not overly sweet, just right. I had the Italian Broth soup with lentils and homemade bread. Really yummy!!

Very cool vibe in boho terms. Nice coffee and I hear the Dahl is great too so I'll be back for that. The service however is poor. Absolutely zero acknowledgement of people standing at the counter, no "I'll be with you shortly" or "take a seat" .. It's just ignore.. so heavy down stars for that.

This café is right up there for lots of reasons and if you haven't been, do it now! I thought I had been to the entire variety of cafés that Sheffield has to offer, but you could have knocked me down with a feather when I walked in. Jazz funk music playing, Dahl Of The Day on the menu and a range of herbal teas to out-do Holland & Barrett. The place has a wood-burner, punching out a warm welcome and the quirkiest of seating, with memorabilia in every corner. We sampled the coffee, lemon and ginger tea, homemade cake... one guten-free and we loved it... We'll be back!
