jonjules Posted October 13, 2019 Author Share Posted October 13, 2019 Mum thought it was Fretwell - Downings but I am sure it began with S 11 minutes ago, Longcol said: Fretwell - Downings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longcol Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Fretwell - Downing would have certainly fitted your Mums description of "high class" - FD's used to do the Cutler's Feast and other top end events - and seemed to do the catering for all the wedding receptions in west Sheffield I attended that weren't at the Omega on Psalter Lane. Pretty sure that at least two women I used to work with used FD's for their wedding reception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other people might remember who the usual caterers were. There was a restaurant on Rustlings Road around that time called "Stirrings" which was considered one of the best in Sheffield back then- don't know if they did outside catering or not though.

abbeyedges Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Beginning with 'S' - There was Spittlehouse Caterers who I think were based at Greenhill. The Omega has been mentioned. I think Sheffield Refreshment Houses Group started the Omega. (They also owned Hotel St George, Kenwood and Roslyn Court). Not sure if they did outside catering.
