Kelham Island

Rooted in Sheffield’s industrial history and leading the way as one of the town’s trendiest and most exciting areas, we’re proud to call Kelham Island our home. A close-knit community, rich in culture and heritage, Kelham Island draws people from all over Sheffield to enjoy its many bars, shops and restaurants. Feeling peckish? Take a stroll along the waterfront to Craft & Dough for some of their delicious artisan pizza and wash it down with some real craft ale from the oldest brewery in Sheffield, Kelham Island Brewery. If you’re in the mood to shop, Kelham Island Books and Music is a great place to flick through records and discover new things, whilst the Kelham Island Museum – a steelmaking history museum with interactive galleries – offers a fascinating way to spend an afternoon.
