Unique café in Sheffield

“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.”

“First time visit Sunday 5 Oct 2025 -wife and I - I had the full English breakfast the wife had Quiche - served very quickly, the food was delicious would definitely recommend and revisit- sat outside as it was a lovely autumnal day - parked the car 100m up the road in the free car park Sorry for the short sharp sentences I was distracted whilst writing this review but don’t worry about that just get yourself down and grab some decent food and drinks”

“Havent eaten here for 10 years and we dont eat out much- got to feel worth the money and this totally did. Very attentive and friendly service. Came with our two children and the kids burger was SO nice we kept trying to eat it! Utterly recommend the ox cheek special- the meat fell apart and was melt in the mouth. Gorgeous red wine, and the chocolate brownie desert was wonderful. We will be back, top marks to new ownership.”

“Ended up here on a day out to Doncaster and was really impressed with how delicious the food was, the portions were big too definitely great value for money. The servers were very attentive. Lovely place”

“Went here for Sunday Lunch a fortnight ago. It was the best Sunday Lunch I've had for a long time. Everything was fresh, hot & beautiful. The staff were extremely nice. I couldn't fault it. Would definitely recommend it & I have. Well worth a visit.”

“Fantastic food, clean and very friendly and helpful staff. Would highly recommend it.”

“Great breakfast excellent value for money! Service is fabulous and they are so friendly and welcoming. My favourite place for a breakfast!!!”

“Friendly staff, cosy surrounding! Seats are hard to come by!”

“Excellent Brunch at the Showroom Cafe. Always very lively in here and good food too. Great place to eat before (or after) a film.”

“Brilliant time, Nice music and people, I can't wait to go again”

“A real Nice place. Very good coffee!! Friendly! A real treat”

“Lovely little cafe. Nice jacket potatoes. Nice sausage rolls and pasties. Reasonably priced too.”

“There were eight of us who dined here prior to us staying the night at the lovely Hex Hotel. Now I'm known to have eaten a burger or two in my time so I consider myself an expert in such things. I had the 6oz Prime Beef Burger and added cheese and bacon. Now take this as a compliment chef/owners etc; this was one of the best burgers I've eaten. The meat was perfect and the Onion Chutney added a level of sweetness that just made it next level. The bacon was also really nice. It didn't fall apart and it wasn't at all greasy. Trust me, this is a top tier burger that I'd recommend very highly. The service was good and we also had breakfast the following morning. Breakfast was a buffet help yourself affair. The food was great and of a decent quality. 10/10”

“Fantastic food at unbelievably reasonable prices. Been a few times and always had a delicious meal.”

“A hidden treasure in Sheffield with the absolute best coffee in town! The beans were freshly roasted on premise by Frazer and you could smell and taste his profound coffee passion in the brew. BTW he has won multiple awards too. Frazer was very generous in sharing his coffee insights, travel and stories with us. He even took us for a tour of his workshop as he was taking a break - what a generous kind hearted man! We saw his home made roaster machine, a contraption designed and made out of passion.. just what an artisan craftsman does best. I took home a bag of his freshly roasted decaf beans straight out of the workshop. Thank you Frazer!”

“I live about a mile from Roots,and drive and walk by regularly. But I never noticed it. Now, I call in quite regular for a cappuccino which is to die for. It is so creamy and tasty. It beats C@%&A and the like any day. I have never tried the food, but what I have seen looks very tasty. The staff are very polite and friendly. The premises is quite large, and there is a decent size room for private functions. The single use toilet is always very clean. There is parking to the front. All in all a great place for a meet up with friends for a catch up and a coffee and a snack. Opening times. Sunday closed. Monday to Friday 8am to 4pm. Saturday 9am to 2pm Closed Bank Holidays. Except school holidays. 9am to 2pm.”

“I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the coffee at this cafe. It exceeded my expectations! Definitely won't be my last visit. Highly recommended!!”

“Went in for the first time to meet extended family today. The staff were very friendly and took the time to talk with us when they could. There were plenty of vegetarian options for my great aunt to choose from. The decor is lovely. The portion sizes are good, the ingredients used were very high quality, the salad has a variety of vegetables in it, we saw staff use fresh herbs that they grow on the counter in the meals. The menus are easy to read and we were all impressed with our meals as they were very delicious. We spent just over £30 on 5 meals and 3 milkshakes.”

“Great staff, good food , nice ambience. The Dj was on fire, and MC Afrocharm always delivers. Are you looking for a nice spot for a night out ? Elios Lounge got you covered!!!!!”

“We had such a lovely time at PlayTown Sheffield! It’s such a well thought out space with 8 themed areas perfect for little imaginations. My two absolutely loved dressing up and exploring all the different zones from the mini supermarket to the vets and the shops. We also went during their egg hunt and it was such a fun bonus activity! The staff were friendly, the space was clean and well-organised, and I really liked that everything is reset between sessions so it feels fresh every time. The outdoor play area was a great extra touch, and having a little coffee spot for grown-ups is always appreciated! Definitely recommend for anyone with young children looking for something fun and different to do in Sheffield.”

“Fantastic cafe and a warm friendly welcome. I went in today and had the nicest panini I have ever had! (Gorgonzola, Peppers & Walnuts) Will recommend to my family & friends”

“Really cool little place, really nice and chilled atmosphere. We didn't try any food as we went in the evening but the food cooking for the next day smelt amazing”

“We love popping into the magic sunflower, so when planning our wedding we knew we would love them to make our cake. The did a wonderful job, it was beautiful and very yummy. Both flavours (chocolate fudge and biscoff) were a big hit with the guests. They were really helpful adjusting the delivery time in line with our venue. Thank you for being a part of a magical day.”

“This is by far the best independent deli in Sheffield. The stock is wonderfully and thoughtfully thought out. I had a ciabatta sandwich and just asked the gentleman behind their kiosk to put in what he thought would work and boy did it! Also the espresso was perfect. It’s obviously run by someone who is passionate about Italy and it shows in the products and the passion which they are enthusiastically served. Sheffield is lucky to have La Coppola.”

“Thank you so much Tiny Town for hosting our little boys 4th birthday party today. Theo had the ‘best party ever’ celebrating at his favourite place and the ladies working today was so helpful! (Sorry, I can’t remember your names). I can’t recommend Tiny Town enough for a little play visit or for your little ones birthday party. We visit quite regular and it’s obvious why… such a lovely place! Thank you xx”

“The best atmosphere of any cat cafe I have visited; rules ensure that the cats are treated well but also does not restrict the experience of visitors. The staff were extremely friendly and allowed us to feed the cats with provided food/ treats. Good coffee too - vegan options for cakes but I did not get the chance to try these.”

“Just want to say a huge thank you to all staff! I was nervous about coming in with two children (personal anxiety) but what a wonderful experience! The spooky milkshakes are a MUST!!! Food was divine! I couldn’t finished mine which was a shame as it was lush! The kids brought left overs home and they can’t wait to come back! Good value! Lovely afternoon Thanks to all staff”

“This is one of those hidden gems, certainly worth a visit. Been there on a couple of occasions. Nice coffee, cake & food at reasonable prices.”
