Food & Drink Discoveries
Sheffield
Kelham Island Food Tours provides guided food and drink tours around the historic area of Kelham Island, Sheffield.
Once a thriving industrial Sheffield district, housing numerous cutlery and steelworks, its recent regeneration into a popular, urban place to live and work has attracted a wealth of small food and drink producers and innovative places to eat and drink.We have teamed up with the great food and drink businesses of Kelham Island to offer you a taste of independent Sheffield.
A unique eating and drinking experience, our two main public tours are the Taste of Kelham Food Tour which features a selection of Kelham Island’s ever-growing restaurants, cafes, and bars. The Kelham Food and Beer Tour focuses on the vibrant beer scene in the area where guests follow the Kelham ale trail visiting venues, old and new, and enjoying local beers and some incredible food.
Scheduled tours run every week and private tours are available for corporate events, hen parties, and celebrations.

What People Say…
"I can not emphasise enough how much we all enjoyed it...I just wanted to say a really big thank you for the tour. It was brilliant and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. They were all very surprised by what we’d organised and really impressed with all the venues, food and drink, plus Amy was a great host. Plenty of information, good fun whilst allowing us to have time to ourselves. We were all amazed by what the area has to offer and will definitely be visiting again"
