Sheffield Food Tour’s launches with two new City Centre experiences.
Kelham Island Food Tours have launched a new sister company ‘Sheffield Food Tours’, who will be operating two new City Centre tours from the end of August. ‘A Taste of Sheffield’ and ‘The History & Brunch Tour’ take guests on a guided walking tour of the City Centre incorporating food, drink, local history and culture.
Kelham Island Food Tours have been hosting food tours in this popular dining destination in Sheffield since 2019 and over the past 5 years have steadily grown, employing three freelance tour guides and hosting thousands of guests
A Taste of Sheffield will provide Sheffield residents and visitors alike with a fun and insightful afternoon. The tour visits five venues and takes in special landmarks and places of interest in the Steel City. Lasting about four hours, guests sample a range of different cuisines and will discover the hidden gems serving some of the best food in Sheffield.
The second new tour that is available is The History and Brunch Tour hosted by local history enthusiast Peter Mara where he takes guests on a journey right back to Norman times with tales of Sheffield’s history. This tour incorporates buildings that tell the story of Sheffield’s rich industrial heritage and provides a completely different perspective of the city centre. The last hour of the tour is spent enjoying a delicious sit-down brunch at the Birdhouse Tea Co.
Founder Sophie Barber said “The City Centre is going through a period of rapid development and positive transformation, so it feels like the right time to branch out with new City Centre food tours. We know from chatting to our guests that many will be excited about coming back to us to experience our new City Centre routes”.
There are some other exciting foodie developments in the pipeline for Sheffield Food Tours including a monthly Cookery School Experience starting in September and Sheffield Food Tours will also be launching a new self-guided food tour option via a new app which can be bought either as a gift or for personal use.
The History and Brunch Tour started on the 4th August and will run once per month.
A Taste of Sheffield will be running twice a month, and is now available to book via the website.
