On Friday night we found ourselves at the Embankment Pub down by the river having a few pints after work. It got to the point when we really needed some food before the consumption of beer got out of hand. “lets go for a curry” someone said, followed by “but the beer here is so…

U-Boat Burger at The Boat Inn
I love The Boat Inn over at Lenton. It is a right proper boozer, decent beer, pub grub cooked to order and decent folk in the place all supping real ale and having a relaxed time. I have written about this place before and have been back quite a few times since just to get…
Sausage and Mash at The Trent Navigation
The Trent Navigation on Meadow Lane is a pretty reliable option for a decent pint of beer from the attached Navigation Brewery and a good plate of Pub Food. I come here quite often on Matchdays when the Pies are playing at home when the place is rammed. If I fancy food though I try…
The Boat Inn in Lenton – Real Ale and Pub Grub
The Boat Inn at Lenton is a proper local, serving a decent pint and plenty of simple pub grub to soak it up with. The pub is tucked away on Priory Street a small side road joining up to Abbey Bridge one of the main roads running past the QMC and backing on to the…
Fish and Chip Friday at The Tailors Arms in Wilford
The Tailors Arms in Wilford has recently re-opened after a refurbishment, it is the re-invention of the space formerly occupied by The Wilford Green. The pub had been mostly closed over the last year which was a shame as this has always been a good spot for a pub in the area. Now I understand…
Squeaky Beaver Poutine at Six Barrel Drafthouse
Six Barrels Draft House in Hockley has been hosting a pop-up by Squeaky Beaver Poutine over the last few weeks. Now I really do like a nice bit of the old ‘Poutine;’ and have sampled it quite a lot as a snack back over in the States admittedly mostly whilst checking out breweries and bars so…
Our Burger at The John Borlase Warren
The Sir John Borlase Warren at Canning Circus is one of the places that you need to visit if you are heading up Derby Road for a night out or even planning a pub crawl. I was blogging about this place back in 2014 when I wrote about “The Canning Circus Circuit – Three Great…
Fish and Chip Friday at the Embankment Club and Kitchen
It was Fish and Chip Friday and I found myself in The Embankment Pub by Trent Bridge looking up at a Chalkboard that was enticing me with an offer of Beer Battered Haddock with Chips for £9.95. How could I possibly resist? The Board had promised a plate of “Locally sourced Haddock fillet, hand battered…
Breakfast Burger at the Canalhouse
It only seems like a couple of weeks since I was last in The Canalhouse bar and restaurant on Canal street munching away on a “Southern Fried Chicken and Waffle Burger“. This week my Mate Martin was out again at lunchtime and told me that he was popping in for a Burger so I gave…
A Bowl of Chilli at the Vat and Fiddle – Classic Pub Food
The Vat and Fiddle on Queens Bridge Road in Nottingham is one of my favourite boozers in Nottingham. I have been supping a pint or three here about as long as the Castle Rock Brewery has been filling the place up with barrels of beer. It has been our traditional Friday night starting point for…
