Local Produce

Here in Nottinghamshire we are brimming with pride at the range of food and drink produced locally across the county. With an outstanding array of produce that ranges from the Bramley Apple to Stilton Cheese, we have some excellent places to eat and purchase local delicacies.

In the city, you will find little gems in the form of cafes and restaurants that support local producers and use fresh ingredients on a daily basis to create mouth-watering dishes.

Food connoisseurs should really head to Nottinghamshire’s two-Michelin-starred chef's establishment - Restaurant Sat Bains -  discover t the delights of World Service or Hart’s Restaurant. All of these venues use local produce throughout their seasonal menus.

Homemade is a splendid café, producing homemade food since 2005, including the most incredible cakes and treats. Homemade support local producers and use suppliers within a 3-mile radius of the café. Believing in real food in a traditional manner, the proof is genuinely in the pudding and it really does show in their menu.

In the West Bridgford area of the city, Copper Bar Café and The Monkey Tree come highly recommended too. Copper Bar Café is open from 8am and serves food through to 9pm while the Monkey Tree offers a more restaurant and bar experience.

Want to discover more food? Take a trip to the Fine Food Markets, held on the third Friday and Saturday of every month at the Old Market Square in the city centre. You’ll find fresh food and drink including meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables, perfect for that home cooked meal, or pick up something already created by passionate food lovers.

Out of the city, you will find the producers themselves who open their doors to the public to share their incredibly delicious wares.
