Hide AdNalin Seneviratne, Director – City Centre Development, Sheffield City Council said: "We are delighted to see The Furnace nearly completed and look forward to it opening next month.
"It’s always wonderful to see new businesses open. It is a venue of real quality run by a much-celebrated UK operator and we’re confident it will be a strong addition to the city centre. Located a stone’s throw from HSBC and
CMS’s new office development, it will undoubtedly appeal to the after-work social crowd.
"With its bespoke Sheffield brand and styling, the venue looks fantastic and I’m sure after several lockdowns over the past 12 months, the Sheffield public can’t wait to go and try it out."
