The Old Ship Inn in Lowdham is located on the Main Street running through the middle of the village. According to their website this pub “Situated in the heart of lowdham, the Old Ship has been the local pub dating back to the first known landlord in 1788” much older than I thought. As well…

The Cereal Killer from Secret Burger Club
It is no secret that I am in love with the burgers from Secret Burger Club. Over the years I have eaten and blogged about pretty much every burger combination that they have come up with for our enjoyment (links to them all at the footer of this post) It has been a while since…
Breakfast at Friar Tucks Cafe by Clumber Park on the A164
Friar Tucks Cafe and Grill is located just of the A164 on Limetree Avenue right opposite the entrance to Clumber Park. We were on our way heading North to the A1 and had planned a stop off en route for a cheeky breakfast. I had scoured the map and come up with several options on…
Sunday Lunch at the Sun Inn in Gotham
The Sun Inn in Gotham is a pub very dear to my heart, it was here that my Father bought me my first legal pint and I bought him his last ever pint before he passed away. Located next to the church, it is one of three remaining pubs in the village the others being…
Breakfast at Jo-Hannah’s in Lowdham
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…

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…
Lunch at the Griffin in Plumtree
The Griffin in Plumtree is just off the main road through the village, on their website they describe themselves as ‘a traditional English village pub at the centre of the community where diners and drinkers alike are welcome throughout the day’ Sounds alright doesn’t it? I haven’t been here for ages, I checked my own…
Breakfast Buffet at Limes Cafe
The Lime’s Cafe on the Rufford Road / A164 is a classic roadside truck stop kind of joint. I would rather stop off somewhere like this for breakfast than any motorway generic service station. On their website they say “We’re an independent Cafe, located just off the A614 near Rufford Park. We’re proud to be…
