The Brewhouse & Kitchen at Trent Bridge is the latest encumbent of the pub building that has housed The Town Arms, The Aviary, and Casa during my Nottingham Lifetime. I popped along the Victoria embankment from my nearby apartment with the sole intention (pardon the pun) of checking them out as a possible option for…

Café Pizza on Trent Bridge – just one of my late night secret rendezvous for a snack
Café Pizza just across Trent Bridge on the South Side is perhaps one of the spots that I shouldn’t be admitting on the blog, but then again maybe it is time to be open? She is like a late night temptress and seems to have become part of myfoodhunting world on the way back from the bright lights…
Bean by the River – lovely coffee, sandwiches and homemade cake
Bean by the River is located on the South Side of the embankment just next to the old band stand opposite the Suspension Bridge where you can cross over the River Trent from the Meadows to West Bridgford and vice versa. I had been looking at this prime space for ages thinking it could make a…
The Embankment Club and The Dispensary – Beer? Breakfast? Pizza? It is all good!
Back in August I last wrote about The Embankment Club near Trent Bridge when I came in for Castle Rock Beer and Pub Food.

For some of us it would be all about those fairground rides like the Roller…
South Bank Bar – Searching for a classic Club Sandwich and meeting the All-In-One
The South Bank bar in Nottingham is located as it’s name suggests on the South Bank of the River Trent on the Southern End of Trent Bridge We used to frequent this bar on a fairly regular basis especially on a Friday lunchtime when we used to nearly always have the club sandwich. It was a really good…
Relish – Cosy Sandwich Shop by Trent Bridge
The Relish Café is tucked away in the Trent House building on Pavilion Road. It is quite a small place, just about enough room for a couple of customers to order lunch. As long as you don’t need to move around too much you will be OK There seems to be a lot of Chalk…
Desperately Seeking Hot Dog – "preferably of the cheap and nasty variety"
I should have known better, and I did know better, but that did not stop me pretending to believe that I could get a nice hot dog from a random kiosk in the UK. I was strolling along the banks of the River Trent and feeling quite good that I had chosen my lunch…
