NONNAS... A HISTORY
When we opened in 1996 we had the ambition to share our passion of authentic Italian foods and the country’s fabulous and diverse wines with the British public. We has no great business plan, just a desire to bring the true taste of Italian life and its culture to our part of the world.
There were plenty of Italian restaurants in Sheffield and there was a strong, tight- knit community of Italians who had come to Britain mainly to work in restaurants . But there was no true, authentic taste of those things we took for granted- the real flavour the country that our parents, and generations of our families before them, had nutured. It was our dream to open the eyes of the British public to creamy cappuccinos, strong dark espressos and the delights of the traditional mortadella, parmesan and pastas of all shapes and sizes.
We had no idea where our dream would lead us when we bought the former butcher’s shop on the corner of Ecclesall Road and Hickmott Road. With the traditional culinary skills of our Italian ancestors to fall back on and the support of our parents, families and friends, Nonna’s was born.
Now 13 years later, we have expanded both sides and are nearly bursting with ideas, a long bar dominates one side, 2 rooms for the all day caffe and restaurant and the other side a loving Italian delicatessen, making all goods in house. But that’s not all, with a Tuscan rentable holiday villa for 2- 10 people in the hills of Pescia (between Florence and Pisa) and a catering company (Nonna’s Catering), we can now do so much more
