Drop Bear Sheffield: Hygge owners reveal the face of new Sheffield cafe project near railway station
A popular Sheffield café chain has revealed the logo for its new project - an Australian themed venue in the city centre.
Bosses at the Drop Bear cafe, which is expected to open in the next few weeks on Howard Street, not far from Sheffield railway station, have now put in place their signs depicting their new brand.
It depicts a koala bear in a T-shirt, enjoying a cup of coffee, alongside the words ‘Drop Bear’.
It is depicted on the windows facing both Howard Street and on the nearby footpath which runs off the street.
The new venue is being opened by the owners of the well known Sheffield café chain Hygge, which operates several Scandinavian themed outlets in the city. But Drop Bear has a different theme and different menus.
Drop Bear will have a Pacific theme, taking its name from Australia, and much of its food from Japanese tradition.
They are looking to serve dishes such as katsu curry and sushi rolls.
Drop Bears are an the subject of stories in Australia about a type of mythical bear that drops out of trees and scares people, and that is where it takes its name.
Work is currently ongoing to fit out the café, with a view to opening up in the next few weeks.
