This little gem of an independent restaurant is less than a 5 min walk from the house. It serves freshly cooked and very delicious Italian and Mexican food - book early for eat, or phone up for a take away (you have to pop round to collect) and get 10% off. Our favourites are the fajitas (on sizzling platters), and the enchiladas. The garlic bread and pizzas are also fantastic!
They don’t have a ‘children’s menu’ as such but they happily make most pizza and pastas in a half size when you order, and a ‘half size’ portion will feed even the hungriest of children.

The best breakfast in Sheffield for sure! This little cafe is staffed by adults from the charity Work Ltd. All the proceeds go the charity and the food is just unbelievably amazing! You can also buy things they make in the workshops, cards and gifts.
The location is a little quaint... as it’s tucked away behind the Bents Green Special School, but it is signposted from the main road, and you can park by the playing fields next door.

For toddlers, a perfect little trip as you can see the sheep, chicken and horses for free as you pick up some local produce and have a coffee.
