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…

Cafe 94 in Beeston: A Large All Day Breakfast
Cafe 94 on High Road is another one of the spots where you can grab some breakfast in Beeston. This one is my kind of place, a proper cafe, not quite your greasy spoon, but certainly a down to earth cafe run by friendly people serving decent honest freshly cooked food. I popped in looking…
Nottingham’s Greasy Spoon
Nottingham’s Greasy Spoon on Trinity Walk is as you might expect the sort of place that you might want to hunt down when in need of a breakfast. Not many places like to be called ‘Greasy Spoon‘ so I though that it was an interesting name to give yourself and to be honest I was…
Breakfast at Kelly’s Cafe in Lenton
Kelly’s Cafe on Abbey Street in Lenton, serving up breakfast and lunch is located near to the QMC and just off the A52 by the Dunkirk roundabout. It seems ideally located for the folks around the hospital and the university looking for some breakfast action. I like to imagine that the same Doctor telling…
Breakfast at The Silly Sausage in the Cattle Market
The Silly Sausage Cafe is located inside the old Cattle Market Tavern on Meadow Lane. This building was a pub that offered refreshment to the farmers and traders at the cattle market. Apparently they had a special licence to open early on market days. I can just imagine them all popping in for a pint…
Jumbo Breakfast at Chocks Away in Nottingham Airport at Tollerton
Breakfast Time at Chocks Away “Chocks Away” is the sort of place where you pop in for a simple bacon cob and end up with a massive plateful of lovely breakfast joy. In fact I sometimes feel that the breakfast menu at Chocks Away is really masquerading as a kind of competition 🙂 Just…
All Day Breakfast at Tuckers cafe on Friar Lane – The Robin Hood Special
Tuckers on Friar Lane is one of the down to earth cafés serving up simple and filling wholesome food to the good people of Nottingham. I have had my eye on this place for a while, but never seemed to be in town early enough to get something to eat there. This time we were…
All Day Breakfast at Cafe Victoria in the Victoria Centre Market
Café Victoria is one of several cafés in the Victoria Centre Market up on the top level of the intu centre. There are several other greasy spoon type establishments in the market that all seem to have similar menus with lots of daily specials. I am going to try and work my way through them…
The Chock’s Away Cafe – Breakfast and Brunch at Tollerton Airport
I love Chocks Away! I hadn’t been here for a while and I had forgotten just how good a little café it is. The last time I blogged about it was back in 2013 when I popped in for a bacon butty and a tuna melt. You can read about those visits here Since my…
Well priced Hot and Cold food at the Wilford Lane Auto’s Café – Cobs, Spuds, Toasties and Brekkie – You can’t go wrong
The Café at Wilford Lane Autos in West Bridgford serves up a lot of your standard truck stop and greasy spoon café favourites. They have cobs, burgers, toasties, jacket spuds and to my delight and joy, an all-day-breakfast. I was not expecting too much when I walked into their café last week to get a cup of tea so that was…
