***Unfortunately now closed*** Cosy Chameleon is a cafe and gift shop on Abbeydale Road South in a small run of shops near the Tesco Express. (It replaced Seasons in summer 2024.) It’s a cafe with a difference – offering reptile encounters as well as food and drink. Not at the same time though – there … Continue reading

Gills & Co
We had a lovely time with some friends at Gills & Co on Ecclesall Road recently. It’s a wine bar and we’d been trying to book on to one of their tastings, but as we couldn’t make the dates work, we just booked a table one evening instead, for some wine and food of our … Continue reading
Delhi in Minutes
We took the kids and grandparents to try out the new Indian restaurant in Dore village that replaced Alma’s. Deli in Minutes was opened in summer by a couple who started a takeaway business during the Covid pandemic. It was great to see gluten free items clearly marked on the menu, and there were plenty … Continue reading
Pellizco
Pellizco is a Mexican tapas bar in Dyson Place, Sharrow. It’s a graduate of the Cutlery Works food hall, where they had a concession, having built up a reputation as a street food vendor. It seems Pellizco has gone from strength to strength over the last few years, and having been conceived during lockdown, they … Continue reading
Afternoon tea at The Rhubarb Shed
I’ve been after an excuse to have afternoon tea at The Rhubarb Shed for ages – I’ve seen lots of recommendations on the Sheffield Gluten Free Facebook page. We’ve tried to book and not been able to get a table in the past, as it’s a popular place. But we did manage to get a … Continue reading
Akentannos – 100% gluten free restaurant
Akentannos is a lovely Sardinian restaurant on Sharrow Vale Road. Since I last went, they have expanded into the adjacent building and, more importantly, have gone 100% gluten free – so when we were arranging a Christmas get together with some dear friends, we decided to go back. A fully gluten free restaurant really is … Continue reading
No Name Bistro
I’d been wanting to try this Bistro in Crookes for ages, having heard good things about it from a coeliac friend. No Name is a tiny restaurant in an end terrace with about seven or eight tables crammed in, with a creative vibe from the rather eclectic interior design – lots of paintings, photos, musical … Continue reading
The Angel – 100% gluten free
***Update Jan 2025 – no longer fully GF but they do have options on the menu*** For my son’s fifteenth birthday we recently went to The Angel in Holmesfield. We haven’t been since it has changed ownership and become completely gluten free. We had some of our wider family with us as well and out … Continue reading
Bank House
Having been to The Dore fairly recently, I decided to have a look online at the menu for its older sister restaurant in Hathersage, the Bank House. The Bank House is situated in the imposing former NatWest bank on the main road. I was delighted and somewhat astonished to find a gluten free bao bun … Continue reading
Mowgli
Indian street food chain Mowgli has been on the list to go to for quite a while, having had some good recommendations from friends. (If you’ve ever been past, you’ll know it as the place with swings in the window.) We managed to get there in half term as one of our staycation treats and … Continue reading
