Some of these still remain but many have moved on and the throroughfare is now more synonymous with food and drink –the wealth of restaurants, cafes and bars have made it a real foodie destination.

Alfredo Geci Maranellos
After being in the UK for two years, Alfredo started college studying catering and hospitality. This quickly grew into a passion for cooking, which in turn developed a hunger to have his own restaurant.
Alfredo has now been the proud owner of Maranello’s restaurant on Ecclesall Road for ten years. He serves authentic Italian food, inspired by his time living in Italy, and his signature dish is Agnello Siculo, a succulent lamb dish which is slow cooked for four hours. It’s very popular with his regular customers.
“This job requires passion and a lot of patience,” said Alfredo. “The reward is satisfaction and not always money.
“I enjoy seeing customers walk out of my establishment happy and they return. It’s a great evening when they buy me a drink rather than the other way round!”

Shahab’s speciality dish is roasted lamb shank, which is cooked in a choice of Karahi, Jalfrezi or Bhuna sauce with sliced onions, garlic, ginger, fresh tomatoes and selected special herbs and spices, garnished with fresh coriander.
“We only use the freshest spices and herbs to make sure you get the best tasting curry and our food is all cooked fresh on order to make sure your meal is cooked to perfection when you order,” he said.

The Sherlocks are on the cusp of releasing a new album before heading out on a European tour. And then there’s that prime slot at a local festival to look forward to...

The Sherlocks originally formed in Bolton Upon Dearne in 2010 with the original line-up of Kiaran and Brendan Crook and Josh and Andy Davidson - two sets of brothers - and released two albums. Their debut, Live for the Moment, was released in 2017 and was quickly followed by, Under Your Sky in 2019.
During this time they supported the likes of Liam Gallagher, Kaiser Chiefs and The Vaccines on tour before Josh and Andy decided to pursue opportunities outside the music industry. Trent and

“I’m a massive fan of the European crowds, particularly the German ones, they are unbelievable and thankfully over the years we’ve been building a loyal fanbase over there,” said Brandon. “They’re very much into rock music so we always go down a treat with them. We can’t wait to get back there in April.”

There must be a real buzz though playing close to home?
“Yeah, we love coming back, especially when it’s Tramlines, it’s an amazing festival,” said Kiaran. “Whenever we play buzz. We always plan the setlist to be full of bangers that always go off the most
Despite further investigation, The Sherlocks wouldn’t reveal if they’ve got anything special planned for Tramlines but did say ‘wait and see’. No doubt they’ll have a loyal, local crowd hanging onto their every word and have them bouncing all through summer. It should be a set not to be missed.
