Chic rooftop "sky bar" to open in Sheffield city centre next month

The development is based at 38 Carver Street, and the office complex, Cubo Sheffield, is scheduled to open on April 1 following a £3million investment.

Alto, its public rooftop, will house two bars, an exclusive VIP area and an external roof terrace with stunning views of the Sheffield skyline.

This part of the development “will be opening in line with the government guidelines and advice for pubs and restaurants,” a spokesperson for Alto said.

The Government’s provisional “roadmap” out of lockdown states that outdoor hospitality venues will be able to welcome customers from April 12.

Marc Brough, Managing Director at Cubo, said: “Cubo offers an exciting, experience-led working environment that will not only attract but retain Sheffield’s young entrepreneurs and graduate talent as well as large corporate companies.

"Alto, the rooftop sky-bar, will become a popular destination, making Cubo an attractive place to set up a business and work, as well as a vibrant place to socialise and spend leisure time.”

Cubo is a new style of serviced offices focused on the “needs of the modern worker” with an emphasis on co-working.

It will include memberships for private offices, designated desks and hot-desking.

A spokesperson for the development said Cubo will provide “many additional benefits” to their tenants, including meeting rooms, phone booths, printing stations and free beverages such as tea, coffee, beer and prosecco.

It will feature 600 plus desks in a variety of different office spaces and members will have 24/7 access to the building, enabling them to have the flexibility to work whenever they want or need to.

The development is part of a the £480m Heart of the City II scheme being bankrolled by Sheffield City Council that includes plans to extend the Peace Gardens, creating a square for alfresco dining, and the redevelopment of Gaumont Building in Barker’s Pool.

Cubo Sheffield is the latest development by the firm which has opened similar complexes in Derby and Nottingham, that have been described as a “huge success” by its owners.

Managing Director Rebecca Brough said: “We are extremely excited to be bringing the Cubo brand to Sheffield. We are quickly expanding Cubo across the country and the vibrant City of Sheffield feels like a natural addition.”
