Where to Drink in Sheffield
When you come to Sheffield on a hen party you'll end up on West Street or Division Street. That's a fact. It's where everyone comes together at the weekend to let off a little steam, and in this neck of the woods, the atmosphere is always fun and full of heart.
With the wealth of music history in the city, you know you can count on banging indie tunes all night as you get the rounds in.
Around Sheffield Hallam there are a sprinkling of quirky pubs, but if it's swanky bars and well-loved franchises you're after, head to Leopold Square. It's a little way out of the city centre, but still only a very short walk. Every drinking destination in Sheffield is easy to get to - amazing!

A sunlit stroll in pretty Endcliffe Park could be just what you need to ease away the excesses from the previous evening's antics and its quintessentially English to boot.

Sounds
The Steel City has an exciting and vibrant nightlife, as the sun goes down there's a real buzz on the streets and anybody who's a somebody can be seen making a beeline for Plug nightclub. This fabulous party spot is one of the top live music and club venues in the city, and everybody from Lily Allen to the Arctic Monkeys have played here.
Shopping in Sheffield

Why not buy a Citywide ticket that'll work with any service operator while saving you a bob or two that's surely better spent on a delicious daiquiri?!

Nightlife
Ecclesall Road
Slightly out of the town centre, Eccy Road as it's known locally, is a stretch of road littered with some of the trendiest bars going. If you're looking for a sophisticated afternoon sampling cocktails and tasting some delicious wines, this is the place to come. 'The Golden Mile' as it is dubbed in some circles is great for pre-drinks, but you're going to want to make your way into the city centre in the evening to well and truly kick things into gear.
Location: S11 8HW
West Street

The hottest bars and clubs are all located in and around here, so you'll be able to find that perfect venue to party through 'til the early hours with ease. A fab mix of classier, high-end joints and more down-to-earth party palaces it has everything you could want and more. Smack bang in the centre of town it is wonderfully convenient and, due to its close proximity, it's easy on those heels!
Location: S1 4EW
Shopaholics
Meadowhall
Meadowhall puts almost every other retail outlet in this shopaholic nation to shame and you and the girls will find it tough to go back to regular high street stores when you've experienced this mega shopping experience. You'll have to get the tram up there as it's slightly out of town, but it's quick and easy and worth the journey!
Location: Meadowhall Centre, S9 1EP (Yellow line on the tram).
High Street
If you fancy just a casual browse, then Sheffield high street has all your standard brands to help you get your shopping fix. The plus side of staying in the city centre is you can sly off for a quick bite to eat and a cocktail anytime you fancy. "I just about make it wine o'clock, ladies!"
Location: City centre S1 1QF

Restaurants
"No, we didn't book a table in advance, but, c'mon, there're only nineteen of us! Oh, by the way, three of us are vegan, two are allergic to shellfish and one only eats meat on days that end in a 'Y'..."
Finding a place for a big group of hens that can cater for everyone's individual needs on the night is risky business. You could spend hours trudging around before you're eventually squeezed in somewhere at 10.50pm. Usually a miserable looking fast-food chain ... No thanks, not on a hen weekend you don't.
Take the hassle and worry out of the situation and let us book you a table at one of a number of amazing restaurants in this fab party city so you can relax in the knowledge that it's all taken care of.

Transport
Sheffield boasts a handy tram system, but you probably won't need to utilise it unless you're heading out of town for any reason (such as Meadowhall). In the city centre, everything is within walking distance but there are also plenty of buses and taxis dotted throughout so getting to and from anywhere will be an absolute breeze.
