Once an actual cutlery factory, this Sheffield food hall has been transformed into one of the city’s go-to dining destinations. Home to more than a dozen permanent and rotating food vendors, it’s one of the largest food halls in the North of England and an absolute gem of Kelham Island.
With long wooden benches and sparkling fairy lights, Cutlery Works has an inviting, community feel to it. It’s an all-day spot, with food and drink options from morning through to late evening. Rock up early and wake up with expertly roasted coffee from Foundry and moreish breakfast meals from CJ’s Brunch Club. For lunch and dinner, take your pick of fare from across the globe, including Greek treats, juicy burgers, Vietnamese street food and everything in between. Pair it with a drink from the bar and you’re onto a winner.

Cambridge Street Collective

It’s easy to see why this one-of-a-kind site bagged the title of Best Food Hall 2024 shortly after opening. The impressive Cambridge Street Collective spans around 20,000 square feet across three levels – making it the largest purpose-built food hall in Europe. And that space is filled with a wide range of independent food vendors.
More than 20 world food vendors sling their wares here, with cuisines from Ethiopia to Japan, Thailand to Mexico, and Greece to Pakistan. But that’s not all – there’s also four bars, a dedicated Korean BBQ vendor, and a cookery school here. This Sheffield food hall is ideal for catching up with friends or a family day out, with AR darts, a children’s play area and an events programme featuring live entertainment. It’s the place to eat!
What we ordered: Loaded Shawarma fries and a sweet Kunafa to finish from Palestinian-food vendor, Baity.
Where? Cambridge Street Collective, 11 Backfields, Sheffield City Centre, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, S1 4HP.
When? 8am to 11pm Monday to Thursday, 8am to 1am on Friday, 9am to 1am on Saturday, and 9am to 10:30pm on Sunday.
How much? Main dishes average between £10 to £14.
Sheffield Plate
This is the smallest of the Sheffield food halls on our list, but while it may be more compact, it still delivers plenty of choice when it comes to flavour. Situated in Orchard Square, Sheffield Plate dishes up a buzzing atmosphere with an industrial-style interior brightened up with crawling vines, neon signs and two bars.
Secure a seat then peruse the vendors that deliver the finest globe-hopping grub. Get the greatest of Greece from The Athenian, bite into burgers from Shoot the Bull or chow down on lip-smacking and spicy servings from the likes of Ayubowan and Niko Niko. We recommend dropping in on a Tuesday evening to take advantage of their free quiz nights – you could be walking away with a £40 bar tab!
What we ordered: Kimchi tofu bao buns from Niko Niko.
Where? Sheffield Plate, 31-33 Orchard Square, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, S1 2FB.
When? 11am to 9pm Sunday to Thursday and 11am to 10pm on Friday and Saturday.
How much? Main dishes range between £8 and £13.
Moor Market

If you’re after something a little less polished and a little more old-school, Moor Market is well worth a look. While it’s more of a traditional market than a purpose-built food hall, it earns its place in this guide thanks to the variety of affordable eats on offer. Alongside its many independent traders, you’ll find cafés and takeaway spots serving everything from Thai street food and fish and chips to hearty breakfasts and quick lunch options.
It’s a handy shout for a casual bite in the city centre, especially if you’re after something unfussy, budget-friendly and full of local character. Rather than social outings and late-night drinks, Moor Market is more about mixing everyday shopping with a proper no-nonsense food stop.
What we ordered: Confit duck Massaman from Lemongrass Thai Street Food, followed by a quick coffee for the road.
Where? Moor Market, 77 The Moor, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, S1 4PF.
When? 8:30am to 5:30pm, Monday to Saturday.
How much? Varies from vendor to vendor – you can get a full English for under a fiver, but other spots lean more towards the £10 to £15 range.
