The Parlour in West Bridgford – Club Sandwich for Lunch
The Parlour in West Bridgford has been open since April and looks to be a welcome addition to the area. I know that there are a lot of bars and cafés on the strip now, but I much prefer to see a more original offering as opposed to just another one of those generic coffee…
Ye olde trip to jerusalem sandwiches
The Trip or the ‘ye olde trip to jerusalem’ is one of the classic ‘go to’ pubs in Nottingham for your visitor in search of some historical pub action. It certainly has all the attractions for the tourist with cavernous rooms, the cursed galleon and the chair that if you sit on it you supposedly become pregnant. As…
Friday night at Fellows, Morton, and Clayton for a Club Sandwich – “A proper club sandwich”

Trent Navigation – Decent Beer and Food by the Canal
The Trent Navigation Inn on Meadow Lane has had a somewhat mercurial life, even on their own website they note that the pub “throughout the years has at times been much loved or closed and neglected.” Over the 30 or more years that I have walked across the canal and onto Meadow Lane to pass it on…
A Club Sandwich Hunt via another Friday Night Pub Crawl
This food hunt entry works backwards from the food and then goes in reverse careering back down hill through the pub crawl. The last stop of the night was at The Roebuck Inn in Nottingham where the default choice of the night had to be a Club Sandwich with Chips described on their menu as “Our signature sandwich, on toasted white bloomer bread,…
Club sandwich or Double Decker? – its all in the toast
When is a Club Sandwich not a Club Sandwich? When it is a double decker. A Double Decker is so called because each layer of filling forms a deck, much like a double decker London bus. A club sandwich on the other hand is double-decker with two layers of fillings between three slices of toasted bread. Traditionally the club ingredients…
