The Grosvenor Pub at 291-293 Mansfield Road has quite some history behind it. A pub has been on this corner since the early part of the 19th Century when it was known as the Blacks Heads Inn. In 1873 it was renamed the Grosvenor Hotel when it was bought by John Robinson who was the founder…

The Corner Cafe in Netherfield – Full English Breakfast and erm.. some other stuff too (probably)
The Corner Café in Netherfield is another local community establishment that deserves another look. It is a bright and friendly establishment that seems to be focussed on your standard café fare with a few extra items. More about those at the end of the post, but just for now lets just assume that I came…
Cafe 67 on the Colwick Industrial estate – Friendly Cafe with Decent Food
Café 67 is in the middle of the Colwick Loop industrial estate on Road No 2. I found the place on a food hunting lunch time sortie when I was using myfoodhunt ‘radar’ and had guessed that there would be some sort of café on the industrial estate (or perhaps I was just driving aimlessly…
At the Fleece – Club Sandwich Hybrid vs Full English
I have sampled the fare at The Golden Fleece on Mansfield Road in Nottingham a few times this year while out food hunting for The Nottingham Food Blog (Read More Here). In those visits we had sampled the burgers, which really are very good. Today though we just had to try something different, we can’t…

All Day Breakfast at The Bank -“Big but not clever”
The Bank in Nottingham is a pub in the Old Market Square area that used to be a bank. For a time it was my bank, a branch of Barclays. This pub often tends to be our last port of call on a Friday night due to its proximity to the bus stops and prevalence…
The Warsaw Diner – A plate of “The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly” and a Polish sausage too
On the face of it The Warsaw Diner seems to be a strange name for a Diner that appears to principally serve American style breakfasts, then when you walk in to be greeted by a couple of Polish ladies on the griddle you get the Warsaw connection, you can also get a glass of vodka,…
Clifton Bridge Cafe – A three generation cafe on the edge of the old Clifton estate
Clifton Bridge cafe is at the end of Wilford Lane on the edge of Wilford and Clifton. It has been run by the same family for three generations and there is a nice story of it’s history on their website “A Brief History of Land, House & Cafe by Susan Moran” plus some really nice…
The GB Cafe and Resturant – A Market Breakfast
The GB ‘Great Britain’ Cafe and Restuarant is in Sneinton Market and had a striking, brightly covered appearance that certainly stands out as you approach into the market area. It seems to be a slightly more upmarket transport cafe type of place. The menu is essentially as many different ‘All day breakfast’ type dishes as you could…
