Nottingham’s Greasy Spoon on Trinity Walk is as you might expect the sort of place that you might want to hunt down when in need of a breakfast. Not many places like to be called ‘Greasy Spoon‘ so I though that it was an interesting name to give yourself and to be honest I was…

Breakfast at Cafe Olive
Cafe Olive on Radcliffe Road just off Trent Bridge is a great spot near to the River Trent and the local sports grounds to get a sandwich for lunch. When I was working in the area we used this place quite often to get a cob or a sandwich. It always seems to have a…
Breakfast at Kelly’s Cafe in Lenton
Kelly’s Cafe on Abbey Street in Lenton, serving up breakfast and lunch is located near to the QMC and just off the A52 by the Dunkirk roundabout.

Breakfast at Mary’s Kitchen near Sneinton Market
Mary’s Kitchen near to Sneinton Market on Southwell Road in Nottingham is a great little cafe. It would be somewhat churlish to describe it as a ‘greasy spoon’ as it was a lot cleaner and brighter inside than your average ‘caff‘ I popped in this week in search of a breakfast and was pretty happy…
