I love visiting Jo-Hannah’s Cafe & Bistro in Lowdham, they are very welcoming and greet you like an old friend even if it’s your first time. It also helps that they serve some decent home cooked food to fill you up as well. I first visited in 2017 when I had a very restrained and…

G. H. Porter Provisions in Newark – My Favourite Bacon (and more)

Daisy’s Kitchen in Newark: Scoffing breakfast for lunch
Daisy’s in Newark is a classic slightly greasy spoon cafe located in the Arcade just off the Market Place. I am not sure if it is called Daisy’s Kitchen as per the sign over the door or Daisy’s cafe so let’s just call it Daisy’s for now 🙂 Anyway we were in town shopping at…

Sunday Lunch at Fellows Morton and Clayton
Fellows, Morton & Clayton or FMC as we call the place for short was our port of call by the canal for Sunday Lunch this week. I have eaten and imbibed here a lot over the years and have blogged several times about the place. In that time a number of landlords and Landladies have…
Sunday Lunch at the Roundhouse
The Roundhouse in Nottingham was taken over by the team behind the excellent award winning Bakehouse in Sherwood earlier in the year. We really meant to hit them up for Sunday Lunch back in March but then Covid reared it’s head and lockdown happened so we missed our chance. This weekend we were up by…
