mikebatty   10 #25 Posted March 23, 2014 does anyone remember Davy's Bakery and shops in sheffield  Dav's bakery , I think, used to be just off Patternoster Row. I used to pass the place on my way to work earl in the morning . Their main shop was at one time in Fargate . The smell of bread being baked in a morning from the bakery and , the smell of coffee being roasted at the shop used to permeate the whole of the are . The aroma alone was enough to put pounds on .
