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…
Southern Fried Chicken and Waffle Burger at The Canal House
The Canal House on Canal Street in Nottingham, next to the Canal (spot the theme in the thread) is a great pub for sampling Ale. I really don’t come here often enough considering the excellent selection of beers that they stock. The rumour that the sole reason is that you have to walk several flights…

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 Big One at The Poppy and Pint – A most excellent English Breakfast
This weekend we stopped off at the Poppy and Pint in Lady Bay as we found ourselves in a breakfast situation. We were at the start of a road trip up north to Manchester for a family gathering to celebrate Mum’s 70th. On trips like this you are never quite sure when the next meal is coming from…
