Coffee Shops · Sheffield
Sheffield has plenty of cafés, but very few where a coeliac parent can hand their child a menu and say yes to all of it. Almost everything here is gluten free, or can be made so, and the cakes are the thing people travel for — cheesecakes, egg custards, condensed milk sponge, cream egg brownies, and slices so generous that finishing one is genuinely a challenge. Children do well with GF waffles topped with Nutella and strawberries, and the all-day breakfast and perfectly cooked eggs keep grown-ups happy. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access, outdoor seating and free parking, plus a toilet on site. Staff are warm and unbothered by fuss. It's an independent, so it's small — one parent describes it as "a hidden gem", which cuts both ways at busy weekend brunch times.
