Sheffield residents could receive 50% discount off their food bill as 20 venues join exciting scheme
Sheffield restaurant goers could get their hands on a bargain this summer
Sheffield diners could receive a discount of 50% at a range of local restaurants.
This comes as part of International dining platform First Table’s launch in the Steel City.
Already used by more than 3 million diners and partnering with 4,500+ restaurants globally, First Table is a global restaurant discovery platform and booking app which is known for giving its users a range of generous discounts in exchange for a small up-front booking fee.

So far Sheffield has more than 20 local venues already signed up, including West10, Head of Steam, Silversmiths, Selena, Grappa Kolam, Lost & Found, Silversmiths and Terrace Goods among others.
The concept is simple. Guests, from solo diners right through to groups of six, can book a limited number of tables available at the beginning or end of service through the First Table app or website.
In return for a booking fee, food lovers receive 50% off their bill, creating an opportunity to try somewhere new while helping restaurants welcome more customers during off-peak periods where they may otherwise struggle.
Unlike many booking platforms, the New Zealand-born app has zero participation fees for restaurants, positioning itself as a supportive partner to hospitality businesses during a challenging trading climate.
Mat Weir, Founder of First Table, said: "Sheffield is a city built on craftsmanship and innovation, and that spirit is alive in its restaurant scene today.
“There’s real quality and variety across the city, and we’re excited to help more diners discover it. Like many cities across the UK, restaurants are looking for innovative ways to maximise every service and attract new diners.
“First Table helps venues turn quieter trading periods into valuable opportunities by filling tables that may otherwise remain empty, while giving diners a great reason to discover somewhere new."
The Sheffield launch follows continued growth for First Table across the UK, with the platform now operating in 22 cities nationwide, alongside continued expansion into Northern Ireland and other key locations across the UK.
The app is available on both Google Play and the App Store, and you can find out more about First Table on their website here: www.firsttable.co.uk.
