Rafters in Sheffield

Decadent plating, amazing tastes and combinations of flavours, atmosphere that was peak fine dining. Great selection of wine, home brew beer and local vodka. Truly an amazing spectacle of an evening. Deserving of a Michelin star.

We visited here for a Birthday celebration a few weeks back, everything was amazing but we can only give 4 stars due to an undercooked scallop on my girlfriends plate, a shame and these things happen but probably shouldn't for the price we paid. We would consider going back as the staff were really friendly and everything else was lovely.

Had the best evening. Absolutely amazing food and drinks. Customer service was superb. The overall experience was unforgettable. Thanks

Cannot fault anything at all of our dining experience at Rafters. The unassuming entrance and restaurant front doesn't match the relaxed and elegant decor that awaits you at the top of the stairs.We were greeted warmly upon arrival and taken straight to our table. The food and drinks menus were explained to us, as well as how the evening would unfold.The personalised menu was a nice touch.Each course presented to was very well prepared and presented. We were given a brief description of each course.The food itself was faultless in every aspect. A great variety of flavours and textures. All very creative. No its not cheap by Joe average standards but, for that special occasion and if its just the once you ever visit I'm sure it'll be an experience you'll remember and talk about for years to come.

The best fine dining experience we’ve had in England. Pricey but worth every pound. We’ve been fortunate enough to have travelled around the world and tried some tasty meals but this restaurant represents the best of Britain. The service was great, it didn’t feel pretentious even though it could have. Touché! Will be back ❤️

The food was just ok.The cheese mousse tart was probably the highlight or the cod.Few nice wines and ports. Cheese board was decent.Friends said that the menu 'wasn't as good as last time'.

What a wonderful place Rafters is. The food is mouth-watering and the menu has been designed with culinary expertise and flair. The prices are appropriate for the standard of fare that is to be expected here, and the experience makes it totally worth it. The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, the decor is chic, and the ambience as cosy and intimate.

Absolutely amazing experience. Awesome staff and service, top quality fine dining food, 100% highly recommended, you won't regret it!

A wonderful culinary experience! I had the three course taster menu, which comes with an accompanying starter platter and a pallette cleanser before dessert. A wonderful array of food with flavours on each dish working together! Would have loved larger portion sizes of course, but it is fine dining! I feel the waiters could have been more engaging. However, overall excellent place! Well worth a visit.

I was treated to a meal in Rafters as a reward and it definitely felt like one. We went for the 3 course tasting menu, including an array of pre-starters and a pallette cleanser before dessert. Everything that came to our table was amazing. Looking and tasting divine. Unfortunately some of the descriptions were too fast/complicated for our ears, but nonetheless we were able to feel (and taste) the difference. The tasting experience lasted for about 3 hours, which, combined with half a bottle of wine resulted in me being seriously full, despite the relatively small portions. My favourite dishes were the cheese tart, tartar roll, quail's egg (all the aforementioned came as part of the standard pre-starter set), celeriac starter and the white chocolate cheesecake (although every dish was exquisitely presented and very tasty, with layers of flavour). Given the chance (and the budget), definitely would love to go back!
