The new Alpine Bar has been unveiled to the public at Sheffield Christmas Markets and shoppers have been quick to have their say.

Earlier this year, organisers revealed that the popular Sleigh Bar wouldn’t be part of the 2019 festivities after six years in Sheffield.

Despite the disappointment, Sheffield Christmas Markets made a big announcement in September that a new Alpine Bar would be taking its place.

The bar will be situated at the top of Fargate and will be open 12 hours a day from 10am to 10pm every day from November 14 to Christmas Eve.

On Monday, the first picture of the new Alpine Bar was unveiled to Sheffield with ‘more details’ promised soon.

A post on the Sheffield Christmas Market Facebook page said: “Perfect for post shopping drinks, after work get togethers and somewhere warm and inviting to catch up with family and friends.

“We are pleased to have some great drinks offered in the bar this year.
