Food scene
Tamper is a New Zealand style coffee shop and are excellent at what they do. They have 3 shops around the city and always serve a great cup of coffee and their food is awesome too. I can personally recommend the mince on toast - it's a kiwi thing apparently!

Neighbourhoods
The area around the house is called Norton (or also Norton Lees). The area is quiet and has an older than average population for the city. Crime levels are low and most houses in the area are owned by families.
The biggest park nearby is Graves Park which is up the hill. It has a rare breeds centre and farmyard which is great for younger kids. Feeding the goats is a lot of fun. There is also a cafe and playground in the park.
Down the hill is Meersbrook Park which is smaller but has a good playground for kids, a skate bowl for older kids and a tennis court which is free to use.
There are a couple of pubs within walking distance of the house. The Prince of Wales and The Sportsman are the two that stand out.

This world-famous theatre is a local institution. The theatre scene in Sheffield has gone from strength to strength over the years. The range and quality of shows is excellent. The theatre features a thrust stage which is one of the biggest in Europe and means that the near 1000 capacity audience surround the stage on 3 sides. No member of the audience is ever more than 20 meters away from the stage. It is a great experience
