Customer Review Summary
Breakfast draws the most praise, including a quesadilla breakfast special and the full English, with reviewers also pointing to the specials, generous portions and vegan options from breakfasts to cakes. The cafe gets packed, and one reviewer booked for that reason. One finds it pricey and another found the flat white weak. Staff are called lovely, one reviewer describing several vegetarian alternatives offered when bacon was removed.

“Was looking for a place for brunch in Sheffield, came to my attention due to the positive reviews, and seemed like a nice place to go. Food was good value for money, staff was friendly, place was busy but not overwhelmingly so (especially for a mid-week). Some veggies options— admittedly not paying tonnes of attention to that— parking good for a quiet day, might be a little more challenging potentially if busier. Overall, seems like a nice to plan a stop and grab a bite while walking by or planning a short activity in the area— especially with Manor Lodge & the flower farm just next door. Would recommend!”

“This place was an amazing find, tucked away and very unassuming but just lovely. The food was amazing, really delicious and huge portions, and the staff are so friendly and accommodating. It seems to get very busy so best to book ahead. One quirk is that you walk through the kitchen to get to the toilet, but I thought that was actually quite nice because they clearly have nothing to hide and the kitchen was a hive of activity. A really cute little hidden gem.”

“Delicious, surprising food. High quality ingredients (delicious bacon) and excellent flavour combinations. But even better than that is the service, the staff are so helpful and friendly. We had a big, complicated group and they took care of all our needs. Thank you so much!”

“Visited the Rhubarb Shed last Saturday. We were lucky to get a table as we hadn’t booked. It’s a popular cafe and I can see why. The menu has plenty of choice and the food is lovely. They have a good range of vegan options from breakfasts to cakes. There is seating inside and out. The outdoor seating was surrounded by beautiful wild flower beds. I had a flat white, it was a bit weak for my liking but I like a strong coffee so it’s probably more down to personal preference. I’d ask for an extra shot next time. Service was friendly and efficient. I would definitely visit again if I’m in the area.”

“The food is delicious and the staff are absolutely lovely. When ordering my meal they offered multiple vegetarian alternatives when I asked for the bacon to be removed. The next week when I asked it was possible to have what I had the previous week even though it wasn’t on the specials board anymore they said yes and custom made me a large portion which was delicious!! The outside seating area is lovely and I absolutely recommend this cafe to everyone! I’ve already brought multiple friends with me ☺️”
