The pink illumination makes this theatre great for Instagram pictures."

"Incorporating classical architecture elements, it is hard to ignore Sheffield City Hall. The building is made of sandstone, which gives it its traditional, yet regal look. The city hall has been open since 1932 and is the heart of our lovely town."

"Since opening their doors in November 2015, Hope Mill Theatre has become one of the most successful independent venues in England. Located in Ancoats, they produce full scale musicals from their Grade II listed former mill. The theatre will be reopening this summer, as well as hosting Hope Fest, an outdoor arts and culture festival."

"This wonderful independent venue, located out in New Islington, was one of the few theatres that managed to reopen last year after lockdown. It'll be back again with a reduced capacity and socially distanced seating for a Meet Me At Dawn, from HER Productions. You can get tickets at hopemilltheatre.co.uk."

"The building of the Dancehouse Theatre has had a fascinating history full of transformation, morphing from meeting halls to a multi-screen cinema complex. In the 1990s it was restored to its former Art Deco splendour and was reopened as The Dancehouse Theatre, home to the Northern Ballet School. While the venue presents a broad range of performances including comedy, music and drama, dance lies at the heart of this North West icon."

"Beginning life as a cupcake company, And the Dish Ran Away With the Spoon still serves freshly baked, hand decorated desserts, from layered cakes to brownies, in its charming little tearoom. As well as selling delicious treats, this café serves a popular afternoon tea/brunch, from Thursdays to Sundays. A little different from other locations, And the Dish Ran Away With the Spoon requires advanced booking, but you can expect generous portions and typical English scones and cakes for an alternative style brunch."

"An all-time foodie favourite Dish and Spoon is A-class in every way. Their cakes cover all flavours from chocolate honeycomb to toffee apple to raspberry and rose. The buttercream is light and the layers of sponge are… there’s no other way to say it….moist."

"It is a place where you can eat both delicious and quality cakes. Have you tasted the wet cakes?. If the answer is no, you should try it."

"With a menu featuring sharing margaritas, delectable burgers and hangover-curing brunch dishes, this Northern Quarter spot is the perfect place for wining and dining all day long. Trade in the usual eggs benny for something a little different here; we recommend the Turkish Eggs."

"Across the road from Kelham Island at the Shalesmoor tram stop, you’ll find the Wellington. A ‘proper’ pub in every sense of the word with a cosy fireplace. It also happens to be the tap house of Neepsend Brewery, so you know there’s great beer available."

"Nevertheless, it’s a piece of Sheffield history so deserves a quick mention. This building was once home to the legendary Ward’s Brewing Company. The business closed back in 1999, but you can still see the sign and iconic archway at the end of Ecceshall Road."

"Unusually colourful (its orange banquettes and Perspex back-bar give it a look of a 1980s Top of the Pops set), this Dale Street tap-house serves a mix of quality guest beers (Wild Beer, Mikeller, Burning Sky), and Beatnikz’ hop-forward brews, such as I Smash Citra and Generation IPA. The weekday cask ale deals are notable (recently pie ‘n’ a pint £5, Mon/Tues), as is Beatnikz’s ability to bag high-profile guests for its meet-the-brewer events. For instance Arbor Ales and US star Modern Times. Pint from £3.70, beatnikzrepublic.com"

"Beatnikz microbrewery is located in a railway arch in the Green Quarter, and their taproom used to be too. But they closed it last year and moved to a shiny new bar in the Northern Quarter where they’ve just introduced a beer slushie machine. Head in to enjoy their core range of beers."
