New York inspired cocktail bar and restaurant, Manahatta, is set to open up its eighth luxurious cocktail bar in Sheffield next month.
For those that love the downtown chic atmosphere, usually only found at the Big Apple, you're in for a big treat.

Naturally, the place is going to be a complete Instagram hotspot with neon signs, a dedicated photobooth to capture all the action, and even swings, for those looking for a unique seating option to while away the night, cocktail in hand, from Manahatta's own cocktails trees.
Manahatta Sheffield is set to showcase nothing less of the most glamorous drinks, show-stopping entertainment and, bring a whole new meaning to bottomless brunches with unlimited booze and tasty treats available during the daytime and well into the evening.
This really is going to be the perfect location for any dressed-up ocassion.

At present, the building is putting its final touches to a currently derelict building next to City Hall on Fountains Precinct, but the £2 million project will come to life for the first day of trading on Saturday 11 February 2023- only a few short weeks away.
So what can the Steel City expect? Well, by day you can grab an authentic taste of Manhattan New York style brunch or light lunches, before being tempted by the indulgent American-style menu available the evening, perfect for a hearty meal after a long day in the city. For those looking for a bite to eat whilst dancing into the early hours, there's also a perfectly-crafted bar snacks option, perfect to pair with one of the sophisticated cocktails or glass from the wine list.

Manahatta is bringing that larger-than-life attitude that's its been known and loved for since its early days in Leeds, and bringing in long-standing menu favourites like supersize sharing cocktails, cocktail trees and Manahatta Magnums plus, the two for one cocktails offer available every Sunday - Friday.
But if all this isn't enough, Manahatta will also be giving its favourite drinks and dishes a ‘Steel City twist’ by adding Henderson’s Relish to the menu. Expect to see a signature Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Henderson’s and Beef Brisket here, and even a Hendo's cocktail, no doubt it'll be extremely popular in the sauce's hometown.
This won't be your average night out in Sheffield, there's going to be live entertainment from Thursday - Sunday alongside a timetable of the best DJs the city has to offer at Manahatta's latest opening.

A modern Mexican restaurant made famous in Manchester is opening in Leeds city centre next week
The North’s favourite Mexican restaurant is arriving in Leeds.
You've met Salon Madre, but have you met her older sister Madre?
This fabulous new restaurant is bringing a taste of Mexico to Leeds, and after making a name for themselves over in Manchester you already know it's going to be good.
By day, Madre is a laid-back space designed for relaxed lunches and by night, it transforms into a lively restaurant serving a menu that celebrates the breadth of Mexican cuisine.
Expect everything from rich Oaxacan-inspired moles and salsas to Baja-style mariscos and Sonoran grilled meats.

At the heart of Madre is the Mexican tradition of sobremesa - the art of lingering at the table long after the meal is over. It’s all about good food, great drinks and even better company.
Madre’s famous Taco Tuesday will also be heading to Leeds, launching on Cinco de Mayo and running every Tuesday thereafter, guests can enjoy two-for-one tacos all day, every Tuesday.
Madre joins its sister venue, Salon Madre - the lively tequila bar and taqueria- which opened just a few weeks ago. Just a few minutes walk apart, the two spots are perfectly paired for a full day or night out.
We're talking dinner at Madre followed by a few margaritas and a couple games of pool at Salon Madre - class.

Co-founder Sam Grainger, inspired by extensive travels across Mexico, says: “Mexico is alive with passionate artisans and cooks, mastering everything from street tacos to regional delicacies. It’s a world where traditions blend and evolve, and we’ve built that ethos into the heart of Madre.”
Madre Leeds will be located on Wellington Place and will officially open its doors next Friday 17 April, you can book your table here.
Announcing the news to Instagram, Edge's Pizza said: "Well there’s good reason for our silence over the last few months, (planning permission pending) we’ve got a home! Seven months of looking and we’ve learnt so much on this journey already, from investment that didn’t work out, to dodgy buildings not fit for purpose. We’ve got there in the end.
"All that to say, we pride ourselves on perfection and wouldn’t settle for anything less. We hope this will be worth the wait, and that you’ll support us on this next huge step. We are terrified to say the least, but we’re also so excited and immensely grateful to you our lovely customers for this opportunity."

This would be great news for Leeds, as their pizza is something unlike anything we have in the city at the moment.
Forget the floppy, Neapolitan-slices that you fold before shoving in your gob. These slices are satisfyingly thin, perfectly crispy and just downright delicious.
We would love to welcome Edges Pizza to the city and we'll keep you updated with the progress. You can bet we'll be the first to order.
