The city in general is very compact - you never have to walk very far to get to the main attractions, though the city also boasts a very efficient tram system. It’s also one of those rare places that combines great culture, fashionable shops and eclectic night-life with acres of green space - in fact, Sheffield is England’s greenest city, dotted with parks and offering easy access to glorious countryside –so both urbanites and lovers of the great outdoors will find plenty of appeal here. And if you fancy taking in the attractions of Sheffield’s famous neighbours –Leeds and Manchester – just hop on a train and you can be in either city within an hour.
Not only do Sheffield students benefit from an outstanding programme of events held at the award-winning Union but the city is heaving with live music venues, clubs, pubs, bars and two acclaimed theatres. It’s also home to the largest independent cinema outside London, the Showroom. Lots of cool clubs and stylish bars line the trendy streets that make up the Devonshire Quarter. Live music across all genres is also well represented in the city, with the Leadmill and Corporation two of the best venues to catch big names from the alternative music scene.
Fashionistas are spoilt for choice in Sheffield, whose shops take in everything from hip hang-out The Forum –a collection of independent boutiques selling everything from skateboards to white-label records, funky fashion to adventurous fetish-wear –to the expansive environs of the Meadowhall shopping mall, featuring all the major high street retailers.
Unlimited choice is also on offer if you’re a bit of a foodie, with a variety of cafes, restaurants and takeaways right on your doorstep. The student late-night staple of curry should be sampled at local institution Bilash Tandoori House, reputed to be the best curry house in the city, but if curry’s not your thing there are plenty of other world cuisines on offer in Sheffield. For cheap eats that won’t dent your wallet the Top Wok restaurant (on the Moor shopping parade) and BB’s (on Devonshire Street), a highly-rated pizza and pasta joint, are just two places cash-poor, hungry students flock to. Eccelsall Road is also packed full of restaurants and cafes to suit all budgets, and the university-run Fox & Duck pub in Broomhill has a great deal going on –you can sup your favourite tipple while snacking on your packed lunch or dinner!
Should you have any energy left after your nocturnal activities, there’s conversation-provoking art to be enjoyed –free of charge - at the Millennium Galleries, an innovative visual arts space, or the really adventurous can hot-foot it over to Sheffield Ski Village, Europe’s largest, all-season ski and snowboard resort.
As the above summary indicates, Sheffield really is a happening place to be, with a lively and welcoming ambience that means many students stay in the city long after they’ve graduated.
