Pour

Where: 617 London Road, Lowfield, S2 4NJ

This pizza and craft beer haven is a fairly new addition to the city, opening a couple of years ago. It soon became a firm favourite for students, vegans and vegetarians in Sheffield, and basically anyone who loves great food and good vibes. The menu is a dirty-pizza-lover’s dream, with particular highlights including the Return of the Mac, complete with mac and cheese, and the Natural Born Griller – seitan ribs, obviously. Students will also be pleased to know that every Wednesday, Pour offer 2-4-1 on all 10-inch pizzas.

Pom Kitchen

Where: 388 Sharrow Vale Road, Sharrow, S11 8ZP

Vegan food with an Australian influence that is made with love to make you feel good. An ethos we can definitely get on board with. From rainbow smoothie and salad bowls to stir-fries and even the odd (stunning) dessert, everything on their menu tastes like sunshine. Oh, and it will look AMAZING on your Instagram. Check out their page for serious snapping inspo.

Heeley City Farm Kitchen 

Where: Richards Road, Sheffield, S2 3DT

Could there be a better way to spend the afternoon than by ‘awwing’ over a bunch of adorable farm animals, then enjoying some delicious vegetarian and vegan, home-cooked food? If there is, we don’t want to know. Seriously, don’t tell us. The Farm Kitchen, part of the Heeley City Farm charity, aims to provide healthy, tasty and affordable food, using as much of their own organic, home-grown vegetables as possible. They also promote Fair Trade produce too, serving Cafeology Coffee.

The Old Vicarage 

Where: Ridgeway Village, S12 3XW

With idyllic views over Ridgeway and the Moss Valley, it is easy to forget that you’re just 10 minutes away from Sheffield when dining in this beautiful restaurant. The Old Vicarage may appear to be reliably traditional and meet everyone's expectations of a typically English country house.

However, once you enter the restaurant the conservative and the predictable are left behind... guests can expect to enjoy exciting, vibrant, internationally recognised and modern cooking by Tessa Bramley with her talented kitchen team. The vegetarian (adaptable for vegans) menu is inventive, creative and delicious.

Joro

Where: 294 Shalesmoor, S3 8US

Those following the Michelin guides each year will no doubt be familiar with Joro and its selection of tasty small plates. The space is made entirely from upcycled shipping containers on the ground floor of Krynkl in Kelham Island – steel building in the heart of the once fully industrial quarter of the steel city. And the food is as cool as the surroundings. The vegetarian menu is varied, and can be made vegan when letting the staff know at the time of booking. You won’t be disappointed.

Blue Moon Cafe

Where: 2 St James Street, S1 2EW

This place is (almost) as much of a Sheffield institution as the Arctic Monkeys. It’s always really busy, thanks to its changing chalkboard menu of vegan delights cooked in-house every day, along with lots of nourishing salads. Hosting a party in Sheffield? Check out their catering service for the best vegan and vegetarian party food around. The giant vegan flans are perfect for sharing.

Dana Cafe

Where: 214 Crookes, S10 1TG

Dana Cafe is a vegetarian cafe (with plenty of vegan options) in Crookes. They sell locally roasted coffee, fine teas from a number of suppliers around the world, and a selection of vegetarian and vegan snacks and meals. Though the best is, without a doubt, their Full Veggie Breakfast (with eggs how you like them, or scrambled tofu) with their grilled open sandwiches, with halloumi or tempeh bacon a close second. Extra tip: take away a slice of their sinfully tasty vegan chocolate cake for later.
