PJ taste are Sheffield based caterers creating seasonally inspired food from local ingredients. We prepare a range of menus suitable for corporate and office breakfasts, lunch buffets and hot fork buffets in Sheffield. With everything made from scratch by our award winning chefs our canapes receptions, delivered lunches, BBQ's and wedding catering all get great reviews. With our own fully licensed 100 seat meeting, dining and event venue in Attercliffe, Sheffield we can host brilliant occasions from corporate training days to special private dining lunches and dinners.
As well as our passion for excellence in our food we believe that professional service is equally important. Our team of catering professionals are experts in event planning, taking a unique and personal approach to each project.
As well as sourcing ingredients from the South Yorkshire and Derbyshire area we grow much of our own edible flowers, soft fruit and herbs, and are able to forage in a controlled way from our own plot.
“We work closely with our customers, whether business clients, couples planning their wedding or visitors to our shops, to create menus that fit their needs, desires and imagination! No beige buffets!”
We make our own jams, pickles, fruit leathers, bread, cakes and biscuits. You may even have heard of our unique Sheffield Egg and Citrus Hits. Increasingly we are growing more of our own produce, concentrating on more unusual vegetables such as cardoons, black peas and Japanese wineberries to mention a few. We use many edible flowers including violas, vulcan, borage, nasturtium, and red amaranth for garnishing and seasonal colour.

Growing and Foraging
Our local sourcing ethos extends to organically growing plenty of sustainable food in our forest gardens. We often harvest and pick just hours before serving. This is freshness guaranteed! Getting outdoors and seeing what is growing in Sheffield and the surrounding areas also gives us a connection to the seasons and challenges us to make the best of local, seasonal resources.
You can find some of our foraging stories on our blog.
