a.s.ullah Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 A Cutler is someone who makes cutlery, something Sheffield is/was famous for. So the cutlers arms is named after sheffield becouse of the cutlery Sheffield used to make? So the name is liked to sheffields history? It's a nice name it would be a shame to change it? Think I might use the name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a.s.ullah Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 Will it be a pub again? Sorry it won't we have no experience in running pubs. We are turning it into a Bangladeshi/Indian restaurant our boss is spending nearly half a million on buying the place freehold and revamping the place once we are up and running and got a feel of the business we might make the bar area bigger so people can come and just have a drink but don't hold me to that as we dont have any experience running a pub or a bar we might not restaurant wise we know what we are doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jossyboy Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 my dad used to drink there in the 80's. I loved the little library bit in the old side and used to sit there if I ever went in. It's a real shame it's closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveGas Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Drank there and played football for them back in 90s, im sure the landlords name was Kas and he was polish. a.s.sulla i think Cutlers Spice is a good name for your restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
