Go inside the Sheffield cafe where building memories is top of the agenda
Looking for something to do with the kids over the summer holidays can lead to a headache
Builder’s Brew is a family-run cafe, found opposite the Cathedral, and has hundreds of Lego sets for you and the family to play with whilst also offering coffee, cakes and snacks.
For just £.4.50 per person for the hour, visitors can choose from hundreds of different sets including Star Wars and Harry Potter. And if you struggle with the instructions, the cafe has lots of bricks for you to create whatever comes to mind.
They estimate that an ‘average’ builder can put together around 250 bricks per hour. So if you’ve booked for two hours, you’ll want to avoid sets with more than 500 pieces, unless of course you’re a speedy builder.
Everyone is welcome, but do remember that Lego is a choking hazard for tiny people, but they do offer Duplo sets for mini builders too.
James Beech, who runs Builder’s Brew with wife Laura, said: “It’s not just a kid’s venue either, it’s a grown-up venue too! We love welcoming families who can all sit together and build.”
The cafe opened in 2023 and has gone from strength-to-strength, largely down to the originality of what’s on offer.
Booking is advised but they can accommodate walk-ins if there is space.
