Our mission
Here at Independent Sheffield, it's not just about discovering the next best eatery or that hidden boutique. We're all about celebrating what truly makes our city shine: our local independent makers, shakers, and creators. Those unique spots that make you feel right at home, just like a comforting Yorkshire brew on a brisk day.
From delightful shops, charming coffee houses, and standout restaurants to the finest salons, lively bars, and snazzy fitness studios – Sheffield has it all. And we think it's high time we spread the word, so these gems shine brighter than the big corporate chains.
We do this by sharing their inspiring stories on our website and socials. And with our Independent Sheffield card, you get the chance to enjoy exclusive discounts and offers city-wide. It's a win-win: you save, and you support our local heroes.
Rooted in Local
Born and bred in Sheffield. We champion local gems because we love them and know firsthand their worth to our community.
Together We Thrive
We believe in community over everything. When our local businesses flourish, so does Sheffield, and that's a win we all share.
Hand-Picked Quality
Every business we feature is hand-picked. We don't just choose anyone; we choose the best our city has to offer.
Our team
At the heart of Independent Sheffield are two dedicated individuals, each bringing a unique set of skills to the table, united by their passion for celebrating Sheffield's local charm.
