Secret Burger Club at Nottingham Street Food – Truly Excellent Burgers

The Secret Burger Club were at The Nottingham Street Food club this weekend and I for one was quite excited to meet them so that I could sample one of their burgers. I am not saying that they are an elusive burger collective, but you need to keep your ear to the ground to track…

The Lincolnshire Poacher Pub Burger

  I really enjoyed eating this burger at The Lincolnshire Poacher up on Mansfield Road, it was a solid effort, really good wholesome pub food, the meat patty is thick and juicy, probably about an inch and a bit thick, well seasoned and smothered with loads of lovely molten cheese. The bread cob that it…

The Real Burger Co in Newark, they sell burgers

The Real Burger Co in Newark is located on Castlegate (number 14 to be exact), right in the midst of the action on the High Street. On their website they say that they are the Home of Proper Burgers and “at the Real Burger Co, we love making burgers”. I suppose that is a good…

The Purist Burger at Bunkers Hill in the Lace Market

Bunkers Hill in Nottingham is one of those city centre pubs that is just far enough away from the main drag to feel like a local. Not too many of the gobshites bother to walk down the hill through Hockley to drink in this place, so you end up with a pretty relaxed but also…

Newark Beer Festival – Beer, Burgers, Sausage Rolls, and Pork Pies

The Newark Beer and Cider Festival was held on the 26-28th May at the Riverside Park in, erm well surprisingly enough, in Newark. This was serious stuff, we even joined CAMRA beforehand so that we could get some extra tokens and stuff. More about that in a later post! 🙂 So anyway we popped along…

Red Dog Saloon – ‘Another’ American themed restaurant in Nottingham

Red Dog Saloon on Victoria street in Nottingham is another restaurant that has opened up in the city serving up American BBQ themed food and Burgers. I am not really sure that we need all of these places to be honest, but I thought I should try them out. They say that they serve Kansas City…

The Real Burger Company – Serving Gourmet Halal Burgers in Hyson Green

The Real Burger Company (RBCO) in Hyson Green is quietly cooking up some pretty decent burgers in this city of ours. It might be a little bit out of the way from the city centre to be noticed by everyone, but really it is just a short tram ride away from the Old Market Square…

Café Pizza on Trent Bridge – just one of my late night secret rendezvous for a snack

Café Pizza just across Trent Bridge on the South Side is perhaps one of the spots that I shouldn’t be admitting on the blog, but then again maybe it is time to be open? She is like a late night temptress and seems to have become part of myfoodhunting world on the way back from the bright lights…

The Angel Microbrewery – A nice pint and a rather interesting burger

The Angel Microbrewery on Stoney Street is the reincarnation of the Old Angel Pub which has been on this corner since the 1600’s. I will admit that I hadn’t been in here for at least 25 years, I used to come in in my polytechnic days when we were happy to slum it. We liked…

The Frame Breakers – Excellent Pub Lunch with Great Food and Beer in Ruddington

Frame Breakers on the High Street in Ruddington is a right proper pub serving up in their own words ‘Great Beer and Good Food’. It is part of the Nottingham Brewery Family,  the same group that have the Ned Ludd in the City Centre. The last time I came into this pub it was called the Bricklayers…
