Welcome to Pavillion, a delightful cafe tucked away on Main Rd in Nottingham, NG16 5HR. This charming spot has quickly become a local favorite, renowned not just for its warm, inviting atmosphere, but also for its exceptional menu that caters to every palate.

The sight of a friendly robin visiting the terrace only adds to the charm of this cozy spot.

A lovely little cafe as we passed through Nottingham on a recent Saturday. Having read some other reviews, to add that the lunch menu starts serving at 12pm so there was a bit of a rush after. Make yourself comfortable and order a drink whilst you wait - why not embrace a bit of slow cafe culture time. I'd recommend the peaceful veranda outside. We were visited by a friendly robin as we waited for our food. Food was good with a few vegetarian options. The chips were particularly delicious. Herbal tea and the usual drinks on offer. Cakes look stupendous though we were too full to try them. The garden centre that the cafe's adjoined has lots to offer too. To mention cafe toilets usually seem like an afterthought for most places. The privacy and location of the clean single (gender segregated) toilets in the cafe outside area felt refreshing.
