Lovely place, food delicious, cakes and pastries very fresh. To sit inside or outside, anytime of day is great.

Lovely food and nice vegan options! Has a nice selection of beverages both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Will definitely visit again.
Laura Kishimoto
Great spacious cafe with good food, coffee, and drinks. Generous menu for vegan diets. A great place to meet while with prams - lots of room, or you can ask to store prams in the café bar.

Great cafe, part of a great independent cinema. Highly recommended before/after a film, or as a stop near Sheffield Station.
Callum Dodsley
Great little place. Staff friendly and fast service. Fair prices. Ideal place to sit and enjoy a drink.

Had a lunch and afternoon film, food was well prepared and good quality. Cinema and cafe all accessible and choices for places to park wheelchair, so you don't have to strain your neck to see the screen.

I had a wonderful 50th Birthday party in The Showroom Cafe on 11 March 2023! The whole team were so helpful from the start and they went over and above to ensure I had what I wanted in way of celebrations. Great service, food, music system and venue with the flexibility to personalise the space for my bespoke party! Friends and family gave super feedback x

I've lived in Sheffield over 3 years now yet don't get out much as there doesn't seem to be much to do (for someone like me), and most places aren't wheelchair accessible. For some reason I seem to have visited the Showroom more than any other place, which is rather sad - it's lovely, but as a Creative I haven't found much Art or Culture here, and I prefer Alt theatre & live events more than film. But I digress.
First half of review is for restaurant, second is the cinema:
The new menu is pretty good, tho there's a lot of similar items and I prefer diversity (in literally everything). I'm sad they no longer have the pork pibil since it actually tasted fairly authentic Mexican (tho the corn cakes weren't), but they've now got a banh mi and tho it's missing some of the toppings, the meat itself tastes authentic Vietnamese so kudos! I also had a delicious pseudo-cheesesteak sandwich, but y'all really need to use green bell pepper... not red, not yellow. Please change this? Their baked goods are always very good and I'm especially fond of the apricot oat bar. Not a wine drinker so can't comment on their wine, but I'd like to see some craft cocktails - maybe a Bramble, and perhaps Mai Tai in Summer? I know, I can't have it all.
The decor isn't for me as I'm a maximalist and it's very modern minimalist industrial, but it's easy to manoeuvre about in a wheelchair, other than the doors which I often need help with. The employees seem pleasant and that's always a bonus. Service is better than at a lot of places, and as a disabled woman I'm never ignored as I often am at Sheffield businesses/establishments.
Now for the Cinema - seen about 9 films here + taken a Film Course which I loved. Unfortunately you cannot reserve the disabeld seating so often I'll find able-bodied folks in the seats I need to use and they refuse to move, but other than that I can't complain. Employees help me carry drinks or popcorn if needed and seem happy to do it.
The screens and sound are fine. I do wish they experimented a bit more with programming. You really need to show the next Anna Biller film, alright? I'd love if they did themed nights and showed obscure films both new & old (I'm thinking stuff like "The Telephone Book". I've been trying to work with a cinema to put on a cult night with programming like that forever).
The David Cronenberg course was fun, it wasn't as cerebral as I'd liked, but hope they do another next year now that lockdown is over. A Horror, Scorsese, Almodovar, or Truffaut would be right up my street.

Amazing Venue for our monthly Toastmasters meetings... The staff were very friendly and treated our group with the fullest respect and helpfulness before and throughout our event. Thank you from our entire team to yours and all the best for the new year 23.

This is a great place for food and drink. Varied, clearly explained menu. Interesting meat and fish meals with plenty of options for vegans including cakes. Help yourself to water from the dispenser. As it's close to the railway station, I always wait for my train here, great coffee and a comfortable environment if you're on your own. Everything is very clean including the toilets. The staff always make you feel welcome.
Nicky Price
Lovely staff and relaxed atmosphere. Felt comfortable having a cuppa snd cake by myself.

Lovely, relaxing venue with really tasty food. I had ordered the beef brisket with chips which exceeded what I expected. It wasn't dry at all. Chips were abit on the soft side but still edible.
We had also asked for some crayons to keep our little one occupied knowing that there was a chance that we wouldn't get any. One of the staff called Julie was really helpful, friendly and attentive to our needs and managed to find some for us which gave us extra time to enjoy our drinks.

I think that the Showroom Cinema and Cafe Bar is one of Sheffield secrets. It's great to be able to support this independent Cinema, they have a much wider choice of films that any of the others. The prices aren't bad either.
The Cafe Bar, is also excellent, good food and good drinks. And some yummy cake! If you are in the area pop in for some tea or coffee and Cake, you won't be disappointed.
Don't forget to check out the film's coming up either.

A decent place for lunch a dinner. Good location. Straddles the line between cafe and bistro well.

Michael Greenwood
Came here for some lunch while waiting for a changeover train and was not disappointed. My wife and I had a hotdogs and a coffee each and was very impressed. Didnt think I could be so happy after a hotdogs and chips but the showroom were able to elevate the meal perfectly. The pretzel roll in comes in was beautiful, sausage was delectable and the chips were well cooked and seasoned exceptionally. Amazing service complimented a well earned lunch and the cleanliness of the place and its facilities were on point. Will be returning next time we are in Sheffield
