    How to be a coeliac – food shopping

    Food shopping is definitely a challenge when you’re newly diagnosed. Gluten’s everywhere you look, in all of your favourite products, and it might feel like you’ll be restricted to shopping from the ‘free from’ aisle for ever… I can’t lie, it is a bit of a frustrating experience when you realise you have to totally…

    How to be a coeliac – eating at home

    Unless you’re loaded, you’ll probably do most of your eating at home, so getting to grips with buying food, what to cook, and eliminating cross contamination are essential. But getting started with the gluten free diet can feel daunting and baffling, as once you start to look for it, gluten seems to be literally everywhere…

    How to be Coeliac – Getting started

    I have recently been asked for recommendations for someone newly diagnosed with Coeliac Disease, so I’ve been putting a few thoughts together, which I’m going to cover in a short series of posts. Firstly, changing your diet is a massive shock and getting used to it can have ups and downs, and at times be…

    Cosy Chameleon

    ***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…

    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…

    Cosy Club

    I have eaten at Cosy Club in other cities so I was really pleased to hear one has opened up in Sheffield. They cater really well for allergens and vegans, so I’ve ended up there on work awaydays a couple of times. Plus, I really like their decor that strikes a balance between opulent and…

    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…

    Cambridge Street Collective

    We went to Cambridge Street Collective, Sheffield’s new food hall, a couple of weeks after it opened. Whilst we did manage to find some gluten free food options, the experience overall wasn’t that great, so I chose not to write about it at the time, as I didn’t want to be negative. (Spoiler – we…

    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…

    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…
