About Rainbow Cafe

Rainbow Cafe is a cafe inside a florist shop on Prospect Rd in Sheffield, where tables sit among plants and flowers and cards, gifts and plants are on sale in the same space. Hot food is cooked to order, and the breakfast menu includes a large breakfast and Eggs Benedict. Lunches are also made on the premises. Coffee and tea come from the local suppliers Cafeology and Brew Tea, and the drinks list includes lattes and flat whites. Millionaire shortcake is among the homemade cakes.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers return most for the breakfasts, with the Eggs Benedict, a large breakfast and a double burger with bacon all named, and one diner says the burger tasted homemade rather than bought in. Close behind are the homemade cakes, including a millionaire shortcake, alongside lattes and flat whites. Several describe hot food cooked to order in large portions, and a sausage patty gets its own mention. Value comes up repeatedly, with diners calling the prices very reasonable. The staff are described as friendly and accommodating, and one reviewer says the cook made their food quickly. The setting, a cafe inside a florist with cards, plants and gift cards for sale, strikes several as unusual and welcoming. Outdoor seating is called a sun trap, and dogs are described as very welcome, with one reviewer saying they were even given a treat. No recurring complaints appear. One visitor who stopped in after walking the dog through the local parks only had coffee and cake, and plans to come back for the Eggs Benedict.

    “One of the best breakfasts I’ve had in Sheffield. The food is lovely, the staff are super friendly and accommodating. There is a nice outdoor seating area at the front too. Been multiple times over the last few months and the ladies always look after us exceptionally. Can’t recommend Rainbow Cafe enough! :)”

Highlights

“The cafe in the florist. Unique to Sheffield, a cafe within a florist shop. Fantastic breakfasts and lunches all freshly made on the premises. Outstanding coffee and tea from local business Cafeology and Brew Tea, and delicious cakes and pastries from local bakeries all served while surrounded by plants and flowers. The space feels cosy and inviting despite the high ceilings and simple metal construction. We also have a lovely decking area which is a real suntrap. The perfect place to sit and watch the world go by or watch the traffic up and down Prospect Road, always entertaining!! We now offer delivery or pick up through Deliveroo.”
