About Atkinsons

A Brief History

After over 137 years right in the heart of the City
Centre, Sheffield’s most famous family owned
department store has been through arguably the
biggest changes in its history. A major one million
pound extension was completed in 2000 which has
increased the size of the store by almost 50%.
In 2007 a major face lift was completed to the
outside of the building.

The larger store continues to offer its current ranges
as well as hundreds of new products across
household linens, kitchenware, crystal and giftware to
toys, luggage, perfume,clothes, electrical equipment
and furniture. Atkinsons department store is already
the perfect place to find unusual gifts, such as
candles, ceramics and speciality foods including
dried fruits and exotic nuts.

The store now occupies a large two floor site which
offers easy access from any direction plus a large
seven floor car park directly above the store.
Thanks to the three separate eating areas, Atkinsons
is the perfect destination for friends and family to
meet before getting down to the serious business of
shopping.
