Chubbys Kebab, Burger and Cheesy Chips on Cambridge Street

[Sheffield History]

CHUBBYS KEBAB SHOP on Cambridge Street

All gone now sadly

Best cheesy chips on planet earth!

What a legendary takeaway this was. Everyone in Sheffield seemed to head to Chubbys for a kebab or a burger or some cheesy chips after a night out in Josephines or Sinatras or Roxy's!

Yes, sad indeed. I went here after nights at Roxy’s in the ‘80s as a teenager. Then moved away from Sheffield in 1988.

When I moved back here in 2018, and went wandering round the now much changed town centre, it brought a smile to my face, the fact that it was still there after all this time.

Did you move away at the start of 1988 or the end?

1988 was one heck of an amazing year in Sheffield!

It was September, I was 19.

Have to be honest, don’t really remember anything about what was going on back then !

Friday 28th Aug, probably one of the last "large doner - chilli & lemon please" orders at Chubbys.

I don’t remember the last time I could have lemon on my kebab, nowhere I go to these days does it !

Chubbys... our rhythm guitarist, Doug, told us about it, so we all got ourselves down there.  Bloody good kebabs.
