About

Fothergills: Award-Winning Food, Drink & Views.

 

Just steps from Nottingham Castle, Fothergills is an award-winning bar and restaurant set in a striking building designed by legendary architect Watson Fothergill. With its blend of historic charm and modern comfort, it’s a favourite for locals and visitors alike.

 

Inside is warm and welcoming - perfect for casual lunches, evening meals, or relaxed drinks. Outside, the spacious terrace offers stunning views of the castle and the famous Robin Hood statue, making it one of the best spots in the city for al fresco dining.

 

Start your day with a delicious breakfast, served daily from 8am–11am. The main menu celebrates seasonal, locally sourced ingredients with standout dishes like Grilled Peach & Burrata Salad, Red Snapper & Asparagus Risotto and the ever-popular British Steak & Ale Pie. Don’t miss the legendary Sunday roasts, served with all the trimmings. Vegetarian and vegan options are always available and full of flavour.

 

The bar features a rotating selection of local ales, handpicked wines, and expertly made cocktails - perfectly paired with regular events such as live music nights, tasting menus and cheese & wine evenings.

 

Fothergills also offers a unique private hire space, The Architect’s Attic—ideal for parties, large group dining, or corporate events, with flexible layouts and tailored catering.

 

Whether you're exploring the castle, meeting friends, or planning a special occasion, Fothergills delivers award-winning hospitality, outstanding food, and one of the most iconic views in Nottingham.
