The Corner Cafe in Netherfield is a most welcoming place full of locals enjoying their cups of tea and coffee, the odd cob and depending on the time of day a breakfast or a plate of standard cafe fodder. I used to live just around the corner but moved away some years ago and to…

Breakfast at Piginns on Carlton Hill
Piginns Cafe and Bar on Carlton Hill is the latest spot in town that I have found to take part in one of my favorite hobbies which is eating breakfast. While I do enjoy a fancy breakfast with ingredients of provenance sourced from the local farmshop, I am equally happy with a far more humble…
Breakfast at the Avenues Cafe in Sneinton Market
Today we found ourselves at the Avenues Cafe in Sneinton Market looking for breakfast, the last outing down this way we were eating next door at the GB Cafe (read more here) so we were spreading the scoffing love by checking out this cafe for our weekend treat. I have eaten here many times before…
Breakfast at the Daleside Cafe
Daleside Cafe is located on Daleside Road in Nottingham attached to the Daleside Autos. It is just off the roundabout to the East Point Retail park where the Aldi is on the A612 near the racecourse. I first came here and wrote about the place in 2013 when I was intrigued to find that an…
Breakfast All Day at the GB cafe in Sneinton Market
The GB Cafe & Restaurant on Gedling St at Sneinton Market in Nottingham is a great place to get your fill of classic old school ‘greasy spoon’ breakfast fodder. Over the years we have frequented this place and it has been ever reliable when needing a comforting plate of food at a good price to…
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…
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…
