The list put together by global travel site Big 7 Travel and holiday specialists EnjoyTravel counts down the best if these facilities in the country, where businesses offer food to be eaten in a shared dining area.
The organisers say the best food halls blur the lines between street food and restaurants, with multiple restaurants and food retail spaces under one roof. Some offer events and entertainment too.

The highest rated food court in Sheffield in the list was Cutlery Works, at Kelham Island, at number three.
The survey states: “Cutlery Works is the largest independent food hall in the north of England. Located in trendy Kelham Island in a dilapidated cutlery factory, the space is crammed full of street food staples, from Nashville-style chicken to tongue-tingling tacos. Over at SHOP, visitors can browse a carefully curated collection of fashion, lifestyle, beauty and homeware from global and independent brands, as well as natural wines, charcuterie, cheeses and more. Beyond filling your belly, the space also hosts regular events for cooking enthusiasts, from knife sharpening workshops to meet-the-chef events.”
The second Sheffield venue in the list was Kommune at number 17. The survey stated: “Situated in an attractive Grade II listed building on the edge of Castlegate in the heart of Sheffield, Kommune brings together some of the region’s most acclaimed independent kitchens, brewers and retailers in one space.
