This weekend we took a trip back down Breakfast memory lane to revisit one of our favoured local spots the Avenues Cafe down at Sneinton Market. Over the years we have been here a lot and always enjoyed the down and dirty nature of their fry-ups. It is a typical greasy spoon establishment, warm and…

Breakfast and Brunch at Esquires in Clifton

Breakfast at Plan A Cafe

Its a great little spot tucked away in South Notts and quite popular with the local ramblers, walkers and volunteers at the park and centre. We had come here to sample their dish of the day which…
Breakfast at Tuckers
Tuckers Cafe & Takeaway on Friar Lane is one of the last proper old school greasy spoon cafes in the city centre, and an absolute classic in the genre. It is the sort of place that needs to be cherished and we do so in our droves. The last time I wrote about Tuckers was…
