Cocktail bar and kitchen launches following £500,000 investment

Selena Cocktail Bar & Kitchen has opened at Sheffield’s £70m New Era Square development.

With a £500,000 investment behind its launch, Selena aims to offer more than just a location for cocktail connoisseurs.

It features an intimate Mediterranean kitchen, a selection of carefully crafted cocktails and an interior designed to blend sophistication with comfort.

Chris Beasley, a spokesman for Selena, said: “Our goal is to transform New Era Square into a dynamic social destination, appealing to those seeking a refined yet lively night out.

“With this investment, we’re not just opening another bar; we’re creating a space where Sheffield can enjoy exceptional cuisine, top-notch cocktails, and a stylish, safe setting – ideal for groups and gatherings.”

Selena offers an elevated twist on bottomless brunch, featuring six small plates to guide diners through a Mediterranean journey. Each dish is paired with a cocktail to enhance its flavours.

Sporting and entertainment stars attended to celebrate the opening of the venue.

They included Mark “The Beast” Labbett, star of The Chase quiz show, Sheffield United Football Club manager Chris Wilder, Sheffield United midfielder Oliver Arblaster, local boxing legends David Coldwell and Johnny Nelson and champion motorcycle racer James Toseland.
