Restaurant · Sheffield
A big, airy room off Leopold Square with proper outdoor seating out front, so there's space to park a pram without blocking anyone and the acoustics swallow a bit of toddler noise rather than amplifying it. Families running birthday tables note the kitchen sends food out for everyone at once, which spares you the child staring at an empty placemat. Staff get repeated praise for being attentive and quick to check back, though on a busy Sunday that can slip. The pinoli pizza, fonduta and the salmon-and-prawn risotto are the ones people return for, and puddings rarely disappoint; pizza purists rate it decent rather than exceptional. Three courses for two came to around £42 midweek. High chairs, a kids' menu and vegan options are all there — worth booking for weekends, when it's genuinely lively.
