Dining atmosphere in Sheffield

“I went there for Sunday lunch with my family. I’ll cut to the chase - book it and go, if there’s actually any space left. The value is unbelievable for the quality of food. This would cost at least double in London and at least 50% more in a neighbouring city. What comes out of that small kitchen is impressive. A deft touch, precise cooking and extremely well judged seasoning. Support this restaurant. If you live in Newark then you have to go. If you live within an hours drive you should absolutely go. If you’re driving up the A1, you need to pop in. I’ve been eating all over the world this year (and previous ones), and this gem was on my doorstep all along.”

“Didn't know what to expect... First timers with Ethiopian food. Warmly welcomed, food explained & very tasty. No cutlery, eat with the copious Ethiopian bread & fingers. Ask about heat/spiciness if concerned - mild dishes available. Very reasonably priced. Will definitely visit again.”

“I’ve been a regular at Rudy’s for the past two years and it’s definitely one of my favourite spots in Sheffield as a student. So when I brought my family here after graduation - It was such a pleasant experience as per usual and it was so endearing to see that the service and quality of food has remained consistent as it has been since my first visit! Our server Kim was really nice, she offered me free prosecco for graduating and also an extra dessert on the house even though we already ordered two! The pizzas came out really quickly and the servers were very attentive IE Asking us how we wanted the pizzas to be served, constantly refilling our water jugs. I’ll miss Rudy’s greatly as I graduate and move away from Sheffield as I had so many pleasant memories here especially for its price range, and I hope everyone else will get to experience it too!”

“An absolute gem of a cafe, service and quality impeccable. Reasonable prices in very comfortable surroundings. The team are really helpful and friendly and the homemade cakes are simply out of this world.”

“Jeremias has been an exceptional waiter tonight, we’ve had a lovely time celebrating my partners 32nd birthday! Food is the best of the best as usual, thanks team”

“Probably the best East-Asian food I've eaten at a restaurant. Excellent service and the food came promptly. The chef and owner explained different points on the menu in a very clear manner and gave great recommendations. The food itself was brilliant, the best part was that everything is halal since they don't use any pork and only use halal meat. The atmosphere of the restaurant was excellent. We were actually the only ones there at the time. I personally was a big fan of all the paintings hung up on the walls. The owner even explained the cultural significance behind some of them and what they meant. Overall a 10/10 experience. Would recommend to anyone thinking of going there and I'd definitely come back if I'm ever in the area again.”

“This place is amazing, the atmosphere is great the food was great and the staff are so friendly and amazing. My partner and I really enjoyed eating here and would 100% come back!”

“Had a lovely visit here- the food was really lovely and the service was excellent. I Had the Steak and Cajun and despite a small issue with my meal, which was sorted as quickly as possible by the wonderful lady serving us- really really enjoyed the food :). The atmosphere is lovely- the pub was pretty full, but we didn't feel like we'd been squeezed in like you do in some pubs. All the staff on sight were polite and very welcoming, I would definitely recommend the Countryman to anybody.”

“Popped in for a cocktail and was not disappointed. Fantastic decor, fabulous service, beautiful cocktails, great vibes and perfect music!”

“The food was hot and tasty, and the calzone was lovely. It was a bit quiet when we arrived, but it was filling up a bit by the time we left. Conrad was our waiter, and was great!”

“Excellent Italian restaurant over two floors, both rooms quite small. Very good service and delicious food; between us we tried several seafood pasta dishes, and a Caprese starter (which oddly had rocket instead of Basil, but was still very tasty). Good value wines and friendly and relaxed service.”

“Very nice food the burger is great and atmosphere amazing and the service was quick. The Burger Box Kitchen itself was very aesthetically pleasing and had a calm atmosphere. Original burger was so tasty.Great burgers made in their own kitchen. Cooked to order. Very good chips and sides too. Attentive and helpful staff Highly recommended.”

“Loved the full breakfast I had. Brilliant service, friendly staff and clean”

“We stumbled across this place on our recent trip to The Peaks. We ordered the full English breakfast. It was tasty and good value for money. The serving staff were lovely and very helpful. If definitely visit again.”

“Ellen as always was fantastic. Service was lovely so down to earth and helpful . Had a lovely Christmas catch up”

“Went to Konjö for their lunch menu. It is where jöro used to be which is well situated for parking. It isn't at Cutlery Works anymore. The lunch menu and Kombos are really great value for money. We each had the kombo 1 with fried chicken bao, Korean fried chicken, and a side. Sides we got were the fermented s&p potatoes and the duck hoisin hashbrown. We also tried the beef short rib croquette and the prawn crackers from the a la carte menu. The fried chicken bao, the korean fried chicken, and the short rib croquette were especially fantastic. Love the ranch and chilli crisp on the bao, the bao itself is homemade and so fresh which makes it super pillowy. It's really nice to try a place like this and I think it's important to understand that this is a bit experimental. When we gave feedback to the restaurant and kitchen on what we loved and what they could consider, it was a really lovely discussion. They made it really clear that they were looking for feedback and how they can make alterations and develop dishes. Like I said, it is a little experimental so it was really great to have that open dialogue. Would 100% recommend coming and, if you do, have a look at the independent bookseller nearby!”

“First of all, my visit to Wagamama was absolutely perfect, greeted by a lovely young lady named Alex, she spent time with me explaining what meal would suit my diet. She sat me down at a beautiful table right in the middle, which was again perfect. I was then introduced to another lovely young lady named Hayley who was amazing from start to finish. I had to nip outside and was worried, she might not think I was going to come back. She assured me everything would be fine. I returned at the absolute perfect time to be greeted with this big plate of food and a delicious cold drink. The girls, checked up on how my meal was, I told them both it was absolutely gorgeous.... Thank you both so much, if I'm ever back in Sheffield, I will 100% return to your restaurant. Thanks once again Alex & Hayley for making me feel so welcome.”

“So for years I’ve been recommending this place as a ‘go to’ for pretty much everything… a relaxed evening with some cocktails on the terrace, light lunch through the day or a meal in the evening for occasions- anyone visiting Sheffield I’ve always recommended this place. It had been a while since I last visited myself, but the other day me and a friend came in for lunch. We’d seen the promotion giving the option of 2 or 3 courses for a set price on a Wednesday. Wow… The hanging kebabs were included (pleasantly surprised), and the quality and freshness of the food was outstanding. So much flavour! The interior in this place is always bright and feels well looked after. Staff were super attentive and approachable, drinks were (and still are) good quality- not like a lot of the cheap sugary cocktails in other local bars. This place truly never disappoints. I’m so glad I can confidently say it’s a consistently LOVELY place to go in Sheffield.”

“Best Indian food in Sheffield, everything was perfect, something which is mesmerising and delicious. Service was amazing, staff is so friendly and cheerful. Will surely visit again.”

“Had a lovely meal here this evening. A big shout out to Ethan our server. He was very attentive and even tho we didn’t shout out about my birthday, he picked up on that and brought out our desserts with a happy birthday on the plate. Thank you Ethan you’re a star!”

“Lovely theatre, definitely worth a visit.”

“my partner and i had a one off free few hours from the child, and we had completed a big job throughout the day so we wanted to enjoy our tea and have something different. the food was beaut, the timings were spot on, the service was great, all the girls and guys working there were friendly and smiley and looked like they enjoyed their job. i believe someone beside us must have been a little tipsy and had been sick. The man who looked like the duty manager on shift dealt with this perfectly and discreetly, hats off to them, brilliant example. well done team, we will visit again, the attentiveness of our server was Shanika, such a smiley young lass, very good at her job”

“Ordered the Mozzarella Burger and Special Side Salad for my coworker fresh, cheesy, and super filling. The burger had an amazing cheese stretch, and the salad was crisp with a lovely vinaigrette. Perfect combo for a working lunch.”

“I recently arranged a work Christmas meal for a large group of staff, and the entire experience was exceptional. The meal was absolutely stunning, and the service was flawless. Every member of the team was polite, courteous and professional throughout. A special thanks to Sam, the General Manager, who ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I’d also like to highlight the brilliant idea of using place cards with names and personal menu choices — this made the delivery of each dish incredibly efficient. I would definitely recommend Browns. Thank you to the whole team for a truly lovely afternoon.”

“A good restaurant is one that does simple things brilliantly Ham egg and chips Delicious deli ham. Crispy chips. Fried eggs sunny side up. PS they are chips, not fries, in Retford!”

“Great place, went in for 1st time other night, lager at a great price and big function room for events”

“Shout out to Amy C. She always makes our experience at zizzi very pleasant and comfortable. She keeps checking if we need anything, and she's fast. When I'm coming into the restaurant I scan the place looking for her hoping she's there coz she's very welcoming and treats everyone equally. I'm saying that because I have a bad experience with another old lady at this restaurant, and when I see her I leave immediately because she is discriminating and I had a few bad experiences with her. Apart from that, your food is amazing and we tried many places but we always regret cheating on zizzi. My favourite is pinoli pizza and fonduta. Your desserts are also brilliant. Best of luck.”

“We came for breakfast this morning to see my youngest son off for his basic training in the RAF. We were a large party so we had booked but due to ever increasing numbers changed our booking twice. This was done in a pleasant and friendly manner . We were looked after by Beth , Jess and Adrian. Nothing was too much trouble . Friendly , attentive and efficient. We had the middle section to ourselves which made it feel like a family gathering should. The buffet was fresh and plenty of choice and the eggs Benedict didn’t disappoint.”

“My train was delayed for an hour yesterday! I'd heard about the pub from a friend but not been in, so thoight id give it a go not expecting much. I loved the amazing selection of non alcoholic beers. I had a delicious lager. The decor is fab, classic pub vibes and the fact you're literally on the platform means when your train finally does arrive you're very unlikely to miss it. I only had a drink so cannot vouch for food.”
