Back in August I last wrote about The Embankment Club near Trent Bridge when I came in for Castle Rock Beer and Pub Food. At that time it was in mid transformation and they were still renovating the place to add a new bar and additional restaurant space. Now those rooms have opened and we have been back…

OK Diner, An American Diner at Carlton on the Northbound A1
The OK Diner The OK diner chain are a small group of ‘American-style’ Diners serving up their take on the American Diner experience alongside some of our main routes snaking up and down the country. I first spotted one when I was heading North up the A1 on my way to Newcastle. I had just joined…
Baresca in Nottingham for Brunch anyone?
Baresca on Byard Lane near the Lace Market Tram stop in Nottingham is a pretty cool place to hang out for a drink, a coffee, some tapas, and as it happens a leisurely Brunch. Their website boldy says “When was the last time you had a great breakfast? Visit us and we’ll serve you a breakfast…
Jo’s Pancake House – Bacon and Maple Syrup? On Pancakes? don’t mind if I do!
Jo’s Pancake House on Ilkeston Road is another great find for me as a place to indulge and fuel my search for American themed food in Nottingham. It was also quite a random find as I was just driving around the city over in the general direction of Canning Circus to see what I could find…
The Avenues Café at Sneinton Market
The Avenues Café in Sneinton formally known as ‘Tasty Bites’ has apparently been in the market area for around 20 years. It is right next door to the GB café, so close that when you are inside at the counter you wonder if they are sharing a kitchen. I don’t think that they are, I…
The Jukebox Café – All Day Breakfast in a kind of Builder’s Breakfast Nirvana
The Jukebox Café at 18 Hartley Road in Radford is an absolute classic café in the ‘greasy spoon’ genre. I have sampled some of their offerings over the last couple of years from their outside catering stall at the Nottingham beer festival and today I was here at the source to see what they would put…
JJ’s Food Bar for a Breakfast in a Bun
JJ’s food bar up on Boundary Road in West Bridgford is a slightly classier bacon and egg cob emporium than those which I often tell you about. It is nice and clean and friendly inside which is always a good sign. It also comes with a simple menu, mainly coming from the ‘world of the breakfast’ which…
The Red Heart in Ruddington – Beer, Football, and Breakfast (all day)
A while back we were over in Ruddington trying out the hospitality in some of their local hostelries, or should I just say we were on a bit of a pub crawl? We found ourselves eventually at The Red Heart Public House on Easthorpe Street. If you don’t know much about this pub well I…
A “Full English” at Joe’s Cafe and Cob Shop near Colwick Vale
During a lunchtime I was out and about in the MyFoodHunt mobile looking for some new places to lunch. For no particular reason I found myself following the bus route through Colwick Vale towards Netherfield. I hadn’t driven along here for ages and I was hoping to find some sort of café. I was in…
Meadow Lane Cafe – An ‘all day breakfast situation’
Last week I found myself over at the Lady Bay Industrial estate at the Meadow Lane Café in the search for a brunch type situation, to be more exact I was in the mood for an all-day-breakfast. I was pretty sure that this was the sort of place that I would be able to achieve my aim especially when…
