The Meadow Covert in Edwalton is these day’s run by Greene King and so has the same menu as the Grosvenor on Mansfield road that I visited recently. Alison and I popped in for a MyFoodHunt chain pub visit last week for The Nottingham Food Blog, partly because we were hungry and partly because it…

Pub Sandwiches at the Grosvenor in Carrington up on Mansfield Road in Nottingham
The Grosvenor on Mansfield Road in Carrington is one of those pubs that seem to have been there for ages. I last blogged about this place back in 2014 when it was owned by John Barras, today it seems to be a Greene King pub. We popped in for a bite to eat prior to a…
The White Lion in Beeston – A Brazilian Fish and Chip Friday and some Brazilian Tapas
The White Lion ‘Bar & Kitchen’ on Middle Street in Beeston was an unexpected bedfellow on a recent MyFoodHunt trip on the Tram out to Beeston. They had some good real ales, a menu packed with burgers and classic sandwiches, just what you want from your local pub. Then though there was this whole tapas thing…
Hot Diggety, looking for a Hot Dog – The Trent Bridge Inn sorted me out with some sausage in a bun
There are moments in my life when I just want a doggone down and dirty hot dog. When that moment comes I just pray to the food Gods that they make it a day that I am back stateside where I know that my desire can be fulfilled. This time though the Gods had deserted me and I…
A Fish and Chip Friday at the Frame Breakers
It was Another Friday, another trip to the lovely Framebreakers in Ruddington, and another MyFoodHunt for a plate of Fish and Chips down the Pub. When it comes to the fish options at the Framebreakers, you get the two pub classics, fish and chips, and scampi and chips, and then the somewhat more substantial…
Rabbit Ragu at The Lincolnshire Poacher – Excellent plate of food washed down with great beer
The Lincolnshire Poacher up on Mansfield Road about 1o minutes walk up the hill from the Victoria Centre is without doubt one of the best pubs in the City Centre. Great beer, excellent food, and a warm welcome are just three things to bring you here. On the Castle Rock website they ponder that “The…
The Goose at Gamston, a surprising decent stop off in the hunt for Fish and Chips (on a Friday)
The Goose at Gamston is located on the edge of the housing estate just off the A52 on the roundabout where you cross into Morrisons. I guess that does not sound that glamorous but it is accurate. It is part of the Eating Inn group and so is one of many pubs in that chain…
Sunday Lunch at The Roundhouse – Roast Beef with all the trimmings! Mum’s 70th Birthday? no pressure then!
This weekend we were out in Nottingham on St George’s Day looking for a ‘proper’ Sunday Lunch, an English Sunday Lunch, one hopefully featuring Roast Beef, Roast Potatoes, Yorkshire Puddings and lots of veg with copious gravy! It was hard work to find a decent one, harder than you would think, but finally we found one at The…
The Crafty Crow – A right proper boozer with Pub Food and Real Ale – Another Fish and Chips Friday
The Crafty Crow in Nottingham up by the entrance to the Castle is one of those pubs that you really should go to more often. I myself am an infrequent visitor even when I am in town, but I feel that I do not do, or have not done, this place enough justice with the count of steps I…
Pub Lunch at The Framebreakers in Ruddington – Today’s Special was Homemade Lasagne
I always have to check out the Daily Specials board when we pop into The Frame Breakers for lunch, just to see if there are any ‘food nuggets of joy’ to be scoffed. Today we were in luck as they had one of my favourite pub lunches the classic lasagne on offer, I was having some…
