Budget
Aslans
West street. infamous halal kebab shop that serves piles of salty meat. see if you can find yourself or get yourself on the walls packed with photographs of customers.
Balti King
Fulwood road, broomhill. long standing indian restaurant and take-away. popular with students, huge well menu of good dishes.
Broomhill Friary
Whitham road. fantastic chip shop, located in the broomhill suburb of the city.
The Interval
Between western bank and glossop road. the interval is the cafe-bar of the university of sheffield union of students. much more pleasant atmosphere than the main student bar bar one downstairs, the interval is open to the public all day students only after 6pm and serves a good value menu of snacks and meals. also popular for the meat and vegetarian hangover breakfasts and sunday lunches at the weekend.
Spoilt For Choice
Ecclesall road. good sandwich shop.
UK Mama
Fulwood road, broomhill. superb african restaurant. complicated menu and specials especially for students on different nights of the week but excellent food and african drums to try out.
Woody's Sandwich Bar
One of the city's best Sandwich shacks, with queues out the door at weekends. Handmade sandwiches, like the legendary 'Full Monty' breakfast sandwich to hot baguettes with fillings. Also dishes out some yummy freshly baked cookies.
Midrange
Baan Thai
On ecclesall road is an excellent thai restaurant.
BB's
Division street. a long standing favourite of families and students in sheffield's city centre. a small family run business that does decent italian food and is reasonably priced. bring your own beer and wine.
Cafe Rouge
Norfolk street on the peace gardens and ecclesall road. reliable and classy chain of french bistro-restaurants.
Cubana
34 trippet lane. absolute diamond just off the bottom of west street. live cuban music most nights, large range of tapas, amazing atmosphere. small and sexy. great first date restaurant. (http://www.cubanatapasbar...)

Polonium
Abbeydale road. polish restaurant that was thrown rather humorously into the media spotlight following the unrelated polonium poisoning of a former russian spy. most definitely not named after a radioactive material. good food.
Top end
