Nice food at great prices. Especially a full English for under a fiver! I go here a lot and don’t think I’ve ever been unhappy with the food.

Probably the best breakfast Cob(Bap) I have ever had. Even the wife was amazed by how good the bacon cob was. This place has found a special place in my heart.I cannot wait for my next trip to Nottingham. Compliments to the two lovely ladies who served us. They remind me of my favourite Auntie. I love them.

I was really skeptical about this shop at first because my first ever cob wasn't great. Since then I've been back many many times and decided to leave off the tomato sauce which was my main issue with my first visit, I simply don't like the sauce. The service is amazing, lovely ladies every morning, always cheery, speedy and great at what they do. This is my regular cob shop now, and I never even knew I needed one before! Thanks for all that you do ladies!
