Dickdioxide Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Memory says: Joe's Cafe in the 70's had "wallpaper" made up of a picture from the Lake district ( Tarn Hows?) that went all round the room. When Joe's migrated to William Street in Broomhall started going to Butlers on Broad Lane. Can I trust Memory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And "How come toasted T- cakes never seem to taste as good as they did forty five years ago" Try picking up some teacakes from Lilly's. Toasted, with a good dollop of Lurpak butter, and you come close to the old taste! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vox Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 The Leprechaun AKA The Lep at the top of Glossop Road, Broomhill. Owned by Mick Housley 1960's I'd like to hear from anyone who used to go there. It was one of my Mod haunts and there was always a line of scooters outside in the evenings. I keep having the odd Google but never find anything.

vox Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I would like to mention Rons cafe Asline road lowfield heeley. I wonder if Ron is still around and if anyone remembers him. Do you mean on the corner of Asline Rd and London Rd early 1970's? I can't remember if he was called Ron or not. If so it was an off licence called Wine Bins ?? before it became the café. This was next door to The Glory Hole second hand shop (Asline Rd) where I worked at the time. We had a bit of an inconvenient fall out with him for a short time. Daft thing to fall out about but - Someone went round for teas and he poured out the mugs but one of them was only part full so he asked for a top up. Ron? obliged by topping up the mug with hot water. It was pointed out that he should have topped it with tea, not just water. A debate ensued which resulted in a boycott on both sides. This lasted for a few days until we realised how inconvenient it was for us - and he realised how much money he was losing. Funny the little things one remembers. ----------- Also to add to the list is La Favorita AKA The Fav on Calver Street. Another Mod Haunt in the 60's .

ukelele lady Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I've heard of Little Nel's at the side of the old Hippedrome, they were the first in Sheffield to get an evening food licence. All the Stars from the theatre used to go in there but I'm not sure if it was just a cafe or if it had a drinks licence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
