These restaurants and takeaway places can deliver Christmas dinner straight to your door in Sheffield
and live on Freeview channel 276
But the imposition of Tier 3 restrictions on the city means diners won’t be able to eat in at venues until rules are relaxed – creating an air of uncertainty about hospitality businesses’ festive prospects.
However, several places have already announced that they will be offering complete Christmas meals for delivery direct to customers’ doors, taking all the hassle out of cooking.

Hide AdHere are those that have revealed their plans so far – more are likely to get involved as Advent gathers pace.
Rafters
Fine dining restaurant Rafters, at Nether Green, is running a Christmas version of its ‘At Home’ service which has proved popular this year. “We do all the preparations, all you have to do is warm it up and plate it like a chef,” say the owners Alastair Myers and Tom Lawson. Choose from a range of starters, then pick either a Ford Farm turkey ballotine or 50-day salt aged beef sirloin for main course – dessert comes in the shape of a Bullion chocolate yule log with mulled cherry. There are drinks packages available too, including a £225 Christmas Day wine case, and extras such as a cheeseboard for six people. (https://raftersrestaurant.co.uk/rafters-at-home)
Brocco On The Park
Boutique hotel and restaurant Brocco On The Park, at Hunters Bar, is offering the full gamut – there is a three-course festive menu available for delivery on Friday nights in the run-up to Christmas, as well as seasonal afternoon teas for delivery on Saturdays, a big lunch for December 25 which customers will need to collect, and a New Year’s Eve feast for collection too. “Christmas may not be the same this year but we are here to make it joyful however you choose to celebrate it,” Brocco says. “Chef Leslie Buddington and team have created menus to minimise time in the kitchen so you can truly appreciate relaxed time with a loved one.” (https://www.brocco.co.uk/christmas)

Starters and desserts are factored in and there are optional extras including drinks.

For something a little different, Pieminister on Division Street is delivering Christmas pies via Uber Eats. The ‘festive feast’ allows customers to pick a pie of their choice on a bed of buttery mash, topped with carrot and swede mash, parsnip crisps, and gravy with a stuffing ball stick. Pies range from Mistlemoo – British beef steak, bacon and port – and The Cracker – turkey, ham, cranberry, parsnip and sherry – to Christingle, which contains honey roast parsnip, chestnut, cheddar cheese and leek, and Dear Santa, filled with venison, bacon, red wine and lentils.
