sgtkate   10 #85 Posted May 3, 2017 but most people don't go shopping before going to the cinema or for a meal and vice versa  Yes they do. Look at Meadowhall. Nearly everyone in the food court area and entering the cinema has shopping bags. Not saying the same thing would happen in the city centre, but I can't see that a trial run with the support of BID would be a bad thing.

Guest makapaka   #87 Posted May 3, 2017 so you have seen people taking shopping bags into the cinema ? is there a baggage holding space in there ?  It's a daft point anyway but have you been to that cinema? You could nigh on park your car with the leg room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

sams town   10 #89 Posted May 4, 2017 Interesting that Sheffield city centre is very popular for visitors, the Hotels are nearly full every weekend, the bars restaurants and cafes are very busy, the theatres and live music venues are well supported, Leopold Square, Devonshire Green, Tudor Square and the peace gardens are buzzing when the weather is nice.....and yet some Sheffield folk on here think it is a dump and haven't visited for ages.

But it isn't all open every day, which seems confusing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Eccy Beach   11 #92 Posted May 4, 2017 Well, Doncaster won an award for best food market a couple of years ago. But it isn't all open every day, which seems confusing.  Pleased for Doncaster, I'm sure their market is grand, I'd just rather live in Sheffield personally.  I was just making the point that some people seem to love focussing on what Sheffield hasn't got and how terrible it is rather than what it has got.

Cyclone   10 #94 Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) so you have seen people taking shopping bags into the cinema ? is there a baggage holding space in there ?  I just tuck the bag under my seat, or most often I have an aisle seat and put the bag next to me.

Guest makapaka   #96 Posted May 4, 2017 the poster was talking about Meadowhall . and why is it a daft point ?  Cos justifying arguments on town planning around whether you can take bags in the pictures seems a bit daft.  I thought they were talking about the Light so hands up there.
