Pom's Kitchen is one of the most colourful bakeries in Sheffield.
If you're on a search for Instagrammable food and don't mind a short train journey then you're in for a treat.
Inspired by Australian cuisine and bold colours, Pom's Kitchen is a bright, fun-filled cafe where everything, no matter how small, is extravagent.
Since we won't be travelling to Australia any time soon (thanks, Covid), the laid-back vibes inside Pom's Kitchen are the closest you'll get to Byron Bay this year. Luckily, the tasty menu has channeled all your favourite Aussie classics as well as including some colourful new favourites that Down Under only wish they could get their hands on.

Rainbow bagels only made up one item on the menu, but they're example enough of the flair and innovation demonstrated by Pom's menu.
The rainbow outer layer hides the layers of Biscoff spread and sliced banana inside, before the entire bagel is sprinkled with hundreds and thousands and neon sprinkles- just incase it wasn't colourful enough already.
That's not all, the Green Goddess Bagel is a pom pink bagel (yes, you can get pink bagels here too) with cream cheese, avocado, pom kale and cucumber and pairs wonderfully with a beetroot latte.

These incredible flavours of savoury and sweet are complimented perfectly by an equally instagrammable breakfast menu.
Think vegan hot sausage butties with garlic mushrooms, granola pots with seasonal fruit and the Pom Breakfast Bagel: a swoon-worthy pink bagel filled with egg, sausage, hash brown, cheese and ketchup.
As you'd imagine, the hot and cold drinks carry the same finesse and include freakshakes and smoothies with inspiring names like Sydney Sunset, with raspberry, pineapple and orange, or Sun Salute, made from mango, orange, ginger and turmeric.

There isn't anything quite like this in Leeds (that we are aware of), so even though Sheffield may be a trip across the Pennines, we're convinced it will be worth it for the 'gram if nothing else.
A popular bar and nightlife spot on Call Lane has closed its doors for good this weekend.
Revolución de Cuba - or Revs de Cuba, to most of us - announced the imminent closure of its Leeds bar last week, and went out with a 'final fiesta' on Saturday.
The venue opened on Call Lane, right in the heart of Leeds' nightlife heartland, back in 2015, and remained open after the collapse of Revolution's parent company back in January 2026.
The group's other venue in the city, Revolution at the Electric Press, did close immediately in January.
Revs de Cuba was famed for its Latin-inspired food and cocktails, and its late-night parties that tried to recreate the party atmosphere of Cuba.
The two-storey venue also had live music throughout the week, plus dancers and entertainment at the weekends.
Posting a statement to followers, Revs de Cuba wrote: "We have loved shaking your cocktails and creating unmissable parties and events over the years, but as of today, 15th August 2026, we will sadly be closing our doors in Leeds.
"We want to extend an enormous thank you for joining the Revolucion party and making some unforgettable memories.
"Any guests with bookings will be contacted in due course - Thank you for your patience and understanding. Goodbye and Gracias."
Commenting on their farewell post, one person wrote: "Noooooo! I had the best nights ever at Revs. I have the best memories. This cannot be trueeee."
Another said: "Thanks for so many years of Live Music and Joy."
And someone else posted: "what a place, end of an era."
The existing Revs de Cuba site in Leeds is under the steer of the NEOS Hospitality, who have revealed grand plans for its future...
Leeds United’s Anton Stach has launched his very own burger at a local indie – and it’s all for a good cause
Clementine Hall
If it's good enough for Anton Stach, then it's good enough for us.
Well, it really is the signing that nobody saw coming...and it’s happening right opposite the station.
Meat:Stack, the Newcastle-born, award-winning burger joint on Bishopgate Street in Leeds, is giving the people what they want - a burger with Anton Stach’s name on it.
Introducing ‘The Moustachi Burger', officially launching Tuesday 18 August where Anton Stach himself will be down at Meat:Stack to meet United fans, sign autographs and, of course, tuck into his very own creation.

Even better, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to The Elhadj Diouf Foundation (EDF), a charity chosen by Stach that supports children through education.
Not only that, but it's a great opportunity to support Meat:Stack that has been suffering from the ongoing road works for months on end now.
So really, you've got no excuse to come down and tuck into the special which will be available through the opening weeks of the season.
Anton Stach, Leeds United and Germany midfielder, added: “Leeds has felt like home from very early on, and a lot of that is the people and the places around the ground, the businesses fans go to before and after a game. Meat:Stack is one of them, and they’ve had a hard time with the building work on their doorstep. The Moustachi Burger is a lovely nod to my YouTube channel too.
"This is a team on the rise in a city on the comeback, and support has to go both ways. I wanted to back a business Leeds fans care about and raising money for a foundation my family has given so much to at the same time means everything. I’ll be there on the 18th, bring your appetite.”
