Restaurant
Domo
A family-run Sardinian restaurant, bar and deli in the Eagle Works building at Little Kelham, importing its specialities direct from the island.
Kelham Island
Kelham Island is a man-made island, created by a goit cut in the 1180s to carry water from the Don to the Town Corn Mill. It sat at the heart of Sheffield's metal trades, and in 1985 it became one of the country's first industrial conservation areas. It's also home to some of the city's best old pubs, including the Fat Cat, Shakespeare's, the Kelham Island Tavern, the Wellington, the Harlequin and the Gardeners Rest, with Domo for dinner.
