Speaking exclusively to The Star, Karen was explicit: "Sheffield was the first restaurant I opened in England, and we can't wait to resume where we left off."

It will be run by Babar Ijaz who approached the Karen's Diner Group at the start of the year as he was returning to the UK from Australia having operated a burger chain.

The firm says tables can be booked on its website now.

It states: "We pride ourselves in awful service. Head down to experience a roast, Yorkshire style and we're not talking about the edible kind."
