Crookes in Sheffield has now been named the 6th coolest neighbourhood in the UK according to Time Out magazine!

The area has become more popular - especially with students - for years.

Time Magazine said: "Once considered purely a place for students, Crookes has undergone a shift in its development and demographic in recent years, quietly and subtly morphing into a wonderfully self-contained neighbourhood that is now a go-to food and drink hotspot.

"Much like Sheffield, this little suburb is not flashy or fussy – it’s an under-the-radar residential area – but it packs a lot of punch for its size."
