Sheffield is a city and metropolitan borough in the English country of South Yorkshire, located at a distance of 250 miles from Edinburgh, with real character, bursting with energy and ideas. Sheffield is situated at the foot of the Pennine highlands at a point where streams- the Sheaf, Porter, Rivelin and Loxley, running in deep valleys converge to form the River Don. It’s a city of creative spirit and unconventional beauty nestled within seven hills. Expect awesome venues, legendary delegate experiences, friendly people and culinary delights, against a backdrop of northern cool. Sheffield boasts independent microbreweries and a diverse range of pubs, cafes and bars. There is also a thriving live music scene and a calendar of events and exhibitions to suit every taste. Whether one’s more of a food and groove person or a food and food person, they’d be hard-pressed to find a corner in Sheffield that doesn’t serve good food.
When one’s in Sheffield, one may not automatically think of fish and chips, because it is a part central UK. Although the nearest beach Cleethorpes is roughly an hour and a half away – not as far as one may have thought. However, when somebody fancies fish and chips, it won’t always be practical to make that journey so we’ve rounded up the three best fish and chips in Sheffield to enjoy.
