Would like to go for a nice breakfast tomorrow morning somewhere nice, like in a park. can anyone recommend somewhere in Sheffield or in Northern Derbyshire? Thanks! :wave: Geoff 19-07-2003, 15:01 Do you mean to a cafe where you can buy it? Or a picnic? (edit: wow, 1 minute reply time - impressive!) BJan 19-07-2003, 15:26 was thinking somewhere like in the cafe in the botanical gardens - do they do breakfast? For picnic I was thinking Chatsworth House gardens? But I love breakfast, so any suggestions would be great, thanks! robh 19-07-2003, 19:13 what's your budget? how many people? full English, continental or weetabix? What time? Are the rest of the forum invited? Dr Feelgood 20-07-2003, 22:42 For a nice breakfast in pleasant surroundings I would recommend Taste on Eccleshall Rd. You can always go for a stroll in Endcliffe Park or Botanical Gardens afterwards.:) pontious 20-07-2003, 23:04 Come round ours. I'll do you a nice greasy fry up, then you can have a walk round Oughtibridge park! John 23-07-2003, 18:17 Bit late, but millhouses park does breakfast. huwj 24-07-2003, 08:13 Xxxxxxxxxx genesiscouch 10-06-2004, 14:07 I have a guest over this week and wanted to take her out for a proper fry-up...any suggestions for city centre? Thanks! slh73 10-06-2004, 16:36 The old queens head in the bus station used to do a cracking full breakfast...not sure if they still do though, havent been in for a while. fuzzy 10-06-2004, 19:57 I have been informed that the Lions Lair? nr coles do a good breakfast. Or not in city centre, Hercules at Crookes or Take 5 cafe on Commonside. Other than that i would suggest if you have transport then to go out to Grindleford cafe. That is good. Disco_Cat 10-06-2004, 20:05 I suppose it’s no good as you want to impress not save pennies but I always abuse Sheffield Universities, Interval Café. It’s only about two quid for a good breakfast, with free coffee re fills. Plus their shop has dirt-cheap papers and there all in their separate bits so you can pick ‘n’ mix your own dream team Sunday newspaper. ToryCynic 10-06-2004, 20:26 Well, there was a cafe in Hunters Bar I think it was that Craig and i went to and it did a good breakfast. I reme,ber that the seats that were in there were like bar seats, some raised tables with bar seats type thing and some tables at normal level. The front of the cafe was orange. That's no use to you at all is it? :thumbsup: Edd 10-06-2004, 20:42 Well, theres nothing impresses a lady more than a proper fried english breakfast. Id recommend Merrills on Westfield Terrace (near the west st. tram stop). Good luck! genesiscouch 10-06-2004, 22:59 Thank you all! I think I shall take the lucky lady to the Lion's Lair. :thumbsup: fuzzy 10-06-2004, 23:52 Check the times that they do it. i know our lot don't get up early. bunches2002 11-06-2004, 08:45 The Cafe at Millhouses park if its a weekend - can't beat it! Grissom 12-06-2004, 00:01 Cavell's is nice - took my boss there and he was well impressed - should get a good mark on my annual review :P Captain_Scarlet 12-06-2004, 00:51 Originally posted by genesiscouch Thank you all! I think I shall take the lucky lady to the Lion's Lair. :thumbsup: Go to the Lion's Lair, I'm sure Fabrice will be more than happy to welcome you in his establishement (he also owns the Cricket Inn in Totley Bents) genesiscouch 12-06-2004, 09:11 Went to the Lions Lair. Unfortunately it is not open/does not serve food until 12.00 so the breakfast option was out the window. However, we went back for lunch which was fabulous! DaBouncer 12-06-2004, 09:13 I like Woolworths full english TBH. You can have a choice of how many items you wan on your plate and theirs loads to choose from. Always filled me and always tasted good :thumbsup: kirky 12-06-2004, 12:28 the restaraunt above the big co-op in town does the cheapest breakfast i know of,its nice too. fuzzy 12-06-2004, 14:50 Originally posted by genesiscouch Went to the Lions Lair. Unfortunately it is not open/does not serve food until 12.00 so the breakfast option was out the window. However, we went back for lunch which was fabulous! Did warn you that our lot don't get up early :D . Glad it went well though. pretty_woman 12-06-2004, 17:55 OK here's what you do sweety ! Drop your ladyfriend off at macdonalds for an egg macmuffin! Then get your cute self round to mine for a proper full English breakfast , sauce and all !! sorry mrs genisis he's just too cute ! :D :D :banana: :banana: :banana: lots of love pretty woman xxx Jonnymango 23-11-2004, 13:42 I had one of the worst vegitarian breakfasts EVER in Woodseats on Saturday morning - burnt omlette, beans and tinned tomatoes - yuck.. It got me thinking as to where my fellow veggie Sheffield Forumers consider the best breakfast in town. My vote goes to Joe's Ices on Ecclesall and Rustlings. kirky 23-11-2004, 13:44 are you a hippy? Elf1 23-11-2004, 13:50 Take 9 (could be take 5, could be something completely different) near Crookes (could be crookemoor).... does a reasonable vegie brekkie but there seems to be nothing outstanding that I know of.... except the ones that I make... waffles, egg, beans, nice veggie sausages, fresh tomatos, some toast and a big mug of tea NatalieSheff 23-11-2004, 13:53 i hate it when they dont cook eggs prop or think u love mushrooms(yuk) and give you lots to fill plate up! some vegi sausage nice (linda mc) some gross. ive yet to find a decent place carcrash 23-11-2004, 13:59 The Olive Garden do a good one. carcrash 23-11-2004, 14:01 And there is Amadas just down from office world. It's a proper greasy spoon sort of place but they do a good veggie breakfast. NatalieSheff 23-11-2004, 14:02 are these in town?? Jonnymango 23-11-2004, 14:17 kirky - I've never been called a hippy before! This is boss. I'm a football-loving, hip-hop listening, 29 yr old ex-scouser. I had long hair for about 5 mins in my Nirvana - listening youth. That was the closest i ever came to being a hippy! NatalieSheff 23-11-2004, 14:18 whats wrong with being a hippy?? lazyfish 23-11-2004, 14:26 I'm sure we've had a similar thread not too long ago... but for me the best is at the Globe, opposite Hallam Uni. Costs £4.50 but it's absolutely massive - two fried eggs, three veggie sausages, toast, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans... and chips, damn it. Chips! You don't need to eat again all day. The worst, I'm sorry to say, is at my local, the Broadfield. But I'm just grateful and amazed to find veggie breakfasts anywhere at all. If you asked for one when I lived in Birmingham you'd get stabbed to death with a sharpened pork scratching. Elf1 23-11-2004, 14:41 Globe nice one... Is that the Broadfield on Abbeydale road? lazyfish 23-11-2004, 14:44 Originally posted by Elf1 Globe nice one... Is that the Broadfield on Abbeydale road? Yeah. Smashing pub, but the food's gone downhill a bit lately. kirky 23-11-2004, 14:50 Originally posted by Jonnymango [B]29 yr old ex-scouser robbing hippy:hihi: :hihi: :hihi: :hihi: Elf1 23-11-2004, 14:53 Originally posted by lazyfish Yeah. Smashing pub, but the food's gone downhill a bit lately. Its got two sides....will it have the Monaco Liverpool game on. lazyfish 23-11-2004, 15:02 Originally posted by Elf1 Its got two sides....will it have the Monaco Liverpool game on. Yeah, it will have. I've never been in the right-hand side bit (or 'the zoo', as I have sometimes heard it called...) but I'm often in the other side watching footy - there's one big screen and a few smaller ones. Jonnymango, whereabouts in Woodseats was your really bad breakfast? raskel 23-11-2004, 20:09 im happy with Morrisons breaky!! bout £3 i think :D D2J 23-11-2004, 20:12 Originally posted by steelcitybab im happy with Morrisons breaky!! bout £3 i think :D Cheap an Easy..

If you're coming from town towards Meadowhead, it was just before the main shops, on the left hand side, opposite Woodseats Primary. I don't recommend it. Everything was bad - from the service to the food. Maybe i'm being harsh, and they were having an off day. They're not getting a second chance though! elf 24-11-2004, 06:05 Blue Moon Cafe in town do the best veggie/vegan food, don't know what there breakfasts are like though as I have never been there early enough to try them. BarneyGumble 04-12-2004, 17:49 Anyone know anywhere you can get a good full english on a Sunday other than a supermarket? Preferably the north of Sheffield. A good belly buster goes down a treat after a night out. Carborundum 05-12-2004, 10:57 Well its not north sheffield and not too cheap but Nonnas in Eccleshall Road does a mean all day breakfast on a sunday - had one 2 weeks ago it was yummy - they even substituted the egg bit (i dont like eggs) with extra bacon for me !! moongarden 07-01-2005, 09:42 i'm looking for somewhere to some decent food on a sunday morning? pref somewhere really nice to sit in a relaxed atmosphere with good food and just recover from the weekend also pref somewhere fairly central as a lot of my mates live in different directions Cheers JonJParr 07-01-2005, 09:51 Vittles in Broomhill. Take your paper and enjoy a full English breakfast. It isn't very central but well worth a look! heifitz 07-01-2005, 11:13 the cafe at grindleford station. not very central...but very special... moongarden 07-01-2005, 11:29 heifitz - i heard they won't serve mushrooms with their breakfasts? Fudbeer 07-01-2005, 11:38 Not been myself but several of my friend say the cafe in the park in millhouses park is superb for sunday breakfast heifitz 07-01-2005, 11:39 hm - cant remember if they do or not. but surely the lovely healthy walk after would make up for this?? moongarden 07-01-2005, 14:07 we often go to the woodbine at hope (although not in the summer) when we have been walking but i'm looking for something more in town for the sunday recovery breakfast after a big night out. there must be something? Spangle 07-01-2005, 14:13 You could try the cafe in Endcliffe Park. S Ousetunes 07-01-2005, 15:15 There's a cafe toward the end of South Road, Walkley whose name I forget, but it's opposite the Freedom House. Now if it's a proper, huge, get-rid-of-my-hangover cholesterol feast you want, then this monkey is what you're looking for. Go big, it's cheap and if you time it right, you can be across the road supping a pint before all your relatives have come out of church. Howzat?! moongarden 07-01-2005, 15:27 Originally posted by Ousetunes ...you can be across the road supping a pint before all your relatives have come out of church. ah, good old hair of the dog! i've not lived in sheffield all that long and one thing i've not found yet is the kind of cafe culture that durham and other places have on a sunday - for example i recently went to victoria quays on a sunday hoping to get a coffee and sit and chat to a mate but nothing open. that place would do a roaring trade in newcastle. Ousetunes 07-01-2005, 15:33 There used to be a barge moored up at Victoria Quays that did a top-notch breakfast, but because this is a 24 hour city (ie, it's closed 24/7) they probably decided they'd be best spending their Sunday morning emptying the hoover. Or something. Take 5 on Commonside also does a decent breakfast. I think the one I mentioned earlier is called O' Reilly's. I'm quite sure of it now. Definitely worth a visit. heifitz 07-01-2005, 17:22 aha, apparently nona,s on eccy road does a wicked sunday brekkie! moongarden 07-01-2005, 23:05 thanks for the suggestions. maybe the best thing is to try them all and review the best on here. i think its going to be vittles this sunday then but any other suggestions/reviews still welcome onedizzybird 08-01-2005, 01:13 take 5 speciality 'yorkshire breakfast' ... comes in a huge yorkshire pudding! Carborundum 08-01-2005, 12:22 Nonnas in Eccy Road do a mean all day breakfast on sunday mornings ... Scott76 09-01-2005, 11:44 O'Rileys South Road Walkley , Fantastic heifitz 10-01-2005, 21:14 so,moongarden, I'm curious ( this is a subject close to my heart!)...where did you end up and how was it? Ive since found out that the irish pub (fagans?)on broad lane does an "amazing" one... neeeeeeeeeek 10-01-2005, 21:20 Sunday Breakfast Carvery at the Riverside, starts late! And Stowford Press cider, Eases the pain. :D moongarden 10-01-2005, 22:56 It was vittles this weekend, Breakfast was fairly standard really and not bad value. I would give it 6/10. So, where too next week? Did anyone go anywhere else? Where is Riverside? mememe 11-01-2005, 09:02 Ha HA bar in the city centre by the town hall do a fantastic sunday breakfast. nicest sausages ever! Bad_Hair_Day 11-01-2005, 12:42 Not sure how up to date these reviews are but might be worth a look -http://www.bbc.co.uk/southyorkshire/greedycow/breakfasts/index.shtml One other place, although not in town, is Damon's out near Crystal Peaks - full american brekky, pancakes, bacon, maple syrup, coffee refills...mmmmmmmm... Ousetunes 11-01-2005, 15:25 Originally posted by mememe Ha HA bar in the city centre by the town hall do a fantastic sunday breakfast. nicest sausages ever! I bet you get tiny portions though? Their food is nice but I come away more hungry than I was before I entered. No, if it is still open then O Riley's Walkley is the greasy spoon that fried breakfasts is all about. And I'm certainly not aware of Fagan's Broad Lane doing a breakfast. I sure hope they do. A full on English breakfast with a pint of their wonderful Guinness. Why indeed, Heaven IS a place on earth! heifitz 11-01-2005, 19:02 hm, yeh, it does sound a bit dubious. i saw it written somewhere on the internet - maybe it was an old web page or something.. but yes , it would be great - will have to check that one out..:heyhey: Ousetunes 12-01-2005, 07:37 Originally posted by heifitz hm, yeh, it does sound a bit dubious. i saw it written somewhere on the internet - maybe it was an old web page or something.. but yes , it would be great - will have to check that one out..:heyhey: I might be coming with yers....., Charlie369 12-01-2005, 11:42 Theres a place called taste at the hunters bar end of hunters bar that is awesome.

Leeroy 27-01-2005, 11:07 Can anyone suggest somewhere nice to get breakfast from? Looking to treat the other half with a day out and would like to get off to a good start with some nice food and surroundings! Mattski 27-01-2005, 11:27 Hey, Taste in Hunter's Bar does a great posh breakfast and in really lovely surroundings, you can then go for a walk in Endcliffe Park and then down to Nonna's for a latte! M nick2 27-01-2005, 11:29 Sarni's just off the High Street, very cheap and very good. Strix 28-01-2005, 00:36 There's a huge great long thread on that done just before Christmas. JBee 28-01-2005, 11:23 You can't beat in Interval in the students Union for a fab all-day Sunday breckkie. You don't need a Ucard to get in, and it does brilliant meat and veggie fry-ups for under £3. yglover 01-02-2005, 12:40 Why not try Glover & co. on Ecclesall Road, very nice surroundings and open from 8:00am Excellent Coffee's & Bacon Sandwiches owdlad 01-02-2005, 15:20 Originally posted by yglover Why not try Glover & co. on Ecclesall Road, very nice surroundings and open from 8:00am Excellent Coffee's & Bacon Sandwiches Would that be an insiders knowledge by any chance :confused: XxGemmaxX 01-02-2005, 20:56 My advice is to just go to Mcdonalds lol!!!

Grill some bacon, fry an egg slowly in sausepan with a lid, add some sliced mushrooms, tomato and onions. Lightly toast some bread and stick the lot between too slices. zombiekillah 10-04-2005, 12:06 ahhh this post inspired me to get off my lazy behind and make a bacon sandwich , yummmmmmmmm Shiesh 10-04-2005, 12:21 Asda do huge breakfast brunches....bargain price too!!:clap: Lucy_Smith 10-04-2005, 13:14 Cafe Rouge for croissants! A bit poncey but yummy all the same ;) jenhoppy 10-04-2005, 14:35 Try 'Copleys' cafe at the top of pond st.Formallt the 'Minerva' Changed hands in nov of last year. They have a full menu on a sunday and do an all day breakfast.

E-Man Groovin 21-05-2005, 11:47 The Forum from 10am Ousetunes 21-05-2005, 12:30 There have been loads of threads on this subject. Do a search! csi_bha 21-05-2005, 15:42 Originally posted by Ousetunes There have been loads of threads on this subject. Do a search! I did, and nothing came up for "Breakfast" that was relevant! mr.blaze 22-05-2005, 07:40 The Seashells Cafe at Woodseats is great, good for recovery periods. Hair of the dog in the Abbey Pub is good too :thumbsup: Wolfie67 22-05-2005, 09:49 If it's not just a basic greasy fry up you're after then Taste at Hunters Bar is good - recommend their poached eggs with Salmon which are wonderful. It can work out a bit pricey but worth it as a treat. Cafe Ceres on Sharrowvale Road is also good. Both places are nice to chill & read a paper over breakfast. If you fancy travelling to the Peaks Grindleford Station Cafe used to be good for a greasy fry up & you can walk off your Breakfast through Padley Gorge. Haven't been there for some time so not sure what it's like now. ToryCynic 07-06-2005, 13:33 Originally posted by heifitz the cafe at grindleford station. not very central...but very special... Is this the same "grumpy" cafe, that I know of? "Don't smile at the chef", "take one serviette, or none" etc, etc. One last remark: "the serving hatch is not a viewing gallery". That place I mentioned on page three, was infact Taste on Ecclesall Road. :) ToryCynic 07-06-2005, 13:34 Originally posted by Wolfie67 Cafe Ceres on Sharrowvale Road is also good. Both places are nice to chill & read a paper over breakfast. Been there too - I get around when it comes to cafés! :) higgins 07-06-2005, 20:16 MOCO on West St does a first rate scrambled eggs / poached eggs and bacon for a couple of quid, plus the best coffee in the city and the best design of any coffee bar I've visited. Seems the owner isn't too big on promoting the place, so it's probably the best kept secret in Sheffield. Makes a change from the Starbucks / Subways that seem to be infesting most major towns these days hoegarden 12-06-2005, 16:53 just have to add that - having inspected it- Fagans breakfast indeed "amazing". the absolute best breakfast ive ever tasted ever!!HIGHLY recommended!!!!!!!!!!! onlyme 14-07-2005, 19:32 I used to live in Leeds and there are many quality all-english breakfast (i.e. fry-up!) places. Some were greasy spoons, others a little smarter. All served good all-day breakfasts. Where in Sheffield can I go for the same thing!? I once spent two hours wondering the streets like a buffoon, friend in tow, absolutely gasping for a quality fry-up. Nowt we could find so we ended up in a place in the market which was poor but at the time we were hardly in a position to complain. Anyway, can someone help please!! I would quite happily buy breakfasts for people for this knowledge!! Thanks, John Don_Kiddick 14-07-2005, 19:35 BHS Meadowhall. 'till lunchtime. 10 item (your choice) plus slice of toast. £2.95 (ish) :thumbsup: spyro2000 14-07-2005, 19:36 Mcdonalds........ BarneyGumble 14-07-2005, 20:19 Theres a cafe on South road at Walkley which does a good breadfast, I don't know its name but its at the Hillsborough end & open Sundays I noticed the other day. Always found Tesco "pick your own" very good but don't know if Infirmary road has a cafe so the only other one is on Abbeydale Road. Had a nice one at Morrisons a few weeks ago but in the past has been very hit & miss fruit&nut 14-07-2005, 20:32 try roadside cafe on the a57,past aston towards m1 j31,a right plate full,good prices,, libuse 14-07-2005, 21:41 Don't know if they still do it (so potentially not a particularly useful post......) but Harleys on Glossop Road used to do a cracking weekend fry up, I think mostly for the hotel guests but anyone could go in. They had a toaster on the buffet bar so you could select your own level of singe. That was about 2 or 3 years ago, though, but you could give 'em a ring?

It has excellent value, choice and quality. |
