The Rising Sun pub in Fulwood has launched a new menu and I was pleased to be invited to try it. The pub, owned by the local Abbeydale Brewery, had a refurb a couple of years ago, with an extension and full catering kitchen, which has allowed them to be quite creative with the menu. … Continue reading

Bella Italia
We had a family weekend break to Centerparcs recently, which inevitably involved a fair bit of eating out. We prepared our own breakfasts and lunches in our cabin, but had a couple of evening meals out and one takeaway delivered to the cabin. I have to say, the Centerparcs team seem to have a very … Continue reading
Amaro Lounge
I had a tip off about a new place called Amaro last week, which has a gluten free menu. So when our plans fell through on Friday and the kids were away for the night, we decided to pop down and give it a try – and it turned out to have only been open a couple of … Continue reading
Gluten free meaty feast at Smoke BBQ
We recently went to a birthday meal at Smoke BBQ, which is at St Paul’s Place, very close to the Charles Street ‘Cheesegrater’ car park and near the Winter Gardens. (Incidentally, the Cheesegrater has just been voted the world’s number one quirky car park!) It’s your classic barbecue fayre, with lots of spiced, smoked meats … Continue reading
Cutlery Works
I went for a great works night out recently at the Cutlery Works on Kelham Island. The Cutlery Works describes itself as a food hall, with a mix of permanent and semi permanent independent restaurants, communal dining spaces, bars and coffee roasters. This makes it a great space for informal groups that can satisfy pretty … Continue reading
Tesco gluten free sushi

Coming soon… Ego at the Dore Moor Inn
The new branch of Mediterranean chain Ego in the Dore Moor Inn is due to open very soon. The website suggests a provisional date of 28th February. Other branches of Ego I’ve been to have had a really extensive gluten free menu, so I’m really hoping this one will, too. Here’s a link to the … Continue reading
Baked – cake review!
***Update – now closed*** I was very pleased over Christmas when my lovely mother-in-law arrived laden with these boxes from Baked, the new free from bakery at Sharrow Vale: I’d planned a menu for the day, which was a pre-Christmas celebration, but I wasn’t disappointed to have to squeeze these in as an extra course, … Continue reading
Coeliac UK Sheffield Group – help wanted
Some of the committee members of the Coeliac UK Sheffield local group are moving on, and Coeliac UK are looking to recruit new volunteers to get involved with leading the group. Without new members, the Sheffield group might not be able to continue supporting the Sheffield coeliac community, which would be a shame. If you’re … Continue reading
I ate all the pies: Pieminister restaurant review
We were in town last night for one of the boys’ Christmas concerts at the cathedral, so we took the opportunity to check out Pieminister on Division Street for a fast feast beforehand. The restaurant is a very industrial looking place inside, with bare walls and simple decor, and although we got there quite early, … Continue reading
