How very sad. We used to love Blend but now it’s completely changed its menu and the food it used to offer is no more. As well as this the atmosphere seems to have been sucked out of the place. It now feels very flat. We left without ordering anything. Thanks for the good food and good times before you made the disastrous changes.

I only had a coffee, so it won't comment on the food. The coffee was OK, no better than supermarket premium brands. So, it's definitely overpriced. The cleanliness was on the poor side. Most of the tables had food buts on them and had obviously not been wiped down.

Beautiful coffee shop outside of nottingham town centre. Coffee and service always amazing even when busy never had to wait long for coffee. Grilled cheese sandwiches are amazing from there. Went to the living goods night that they held food was amazing and nice chilled atmosphere staff did amazing job of looking after everyone that attended. Everyone there is so friendly and helpful

Expensive and Disengaged Staff - The blonde woman at the till was quite rude, sighing heavily, suggesting she might have had a hangover and didn’t want to be there. Plus, I was charged an extra £1.20 for sugar syrup in my iced latte, which felt like a rip-off.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Blend: A Culinary Gem Blend is nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment you walk in, the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee captivates your senses and sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. The coffee is hands down the best I’ve ever had—rich, smooth, and brewed to perfection. But Blend is not just about coffee; their food is equally impressive. Every dish is a culinary masterpiece, bursting with flavor and crafted with the finest ingredients. Whether you're indulging in a hearty breakfast, a light lunch, or a delectable dessert, each bite is pure bliss. The ambiance is cosy and welcoming, and the staff are always friendly and attentive. Blend is the perfect spot to relax, recharge, and enjoy some of the best food and coffee you'll ever taste. Highly recommend!

As a local to the coffee shop, I often dropped by to grab a delicious cup of coffee. Whenever heading into town, I would stop by here to grab what I knew would be a delicious, flavour filled drink. Each time I’ve entered the shop, I’ve been greeted with friendly service, provided a ton of great recommendations and felt empowered leaving their clean and stylish cafe.

Truly one of the best brunch places in Nottingham, great coffee, great toasties and sweet treats, extensive drinks menu with all the alternative choices you'd need. I do really enjoy the toasties but, and I find this hard to say, could do with maybe a little bit of health on the side as my arteries slightly harden when the oozing, toasty cheese arrives, but then that's my choice I guess. Atmosphere is pretty buzzy and friendly, but be warned be on your toes at the weekend or be happy sharing table space and make new friends!

Lovely chill venue with lots of natural light as it has roof windows and is on the corner of the market. Loads of vegan options. Everything under Herbivore can be made vegan. I paid £8 for a grilled vegan cheese sandwich with celeriac and sweet Apple chutney. They have loads of vegan cakes, drinks and even a soy roll. Grab a table, check the menu, go up to order (tell them your table number). Collect drinks, food is delivered to the table. AF on the menu basically means vegan. AFO means can be made vegan. Everything is made in the same kitchen though.

Great place to eat, went yesterday afternoon with my wife and small dog and popped in for some Brunch, my first time there but my wife suggested this place as she has been before with friends. Fantastic Ham/Cheese and Chilli jam grilled sandwich with Matcha tea. It is a very chilled place with students and families. Sneinton has changed a lot around the Market over the years for the better, and feels a safer place to walk around. Loved all the friendly skater boarders using the market.

Blend is always a delight to visit! All their drinks are delicious, especially the Turmeric Latte.

Very disappointed when my friend treated us to lunch after a walk/wheelchair ride around the galleries in NCA. We were served a sandwich each with plain crisps on the side. The sourdough bread was almost inedible and tasted stale. The filling was beetroot, some rocket and 2 strips of vegan cheese. For this they charged nearly £8! We complained to a waiter who admitted he'd had a similar difficulty trying to eat the same snack in his half hour lunch break. We opted for soup as replacement. It was leek and potato. Unfortunately this too was almost impossible to eat due to the amount of black pepper which had been added before serving. At least our complimentary drinks were acceptable!

Awful - rude, surly staff who got my order wrong twice because they weren’t paying attention and rolled their eyes and visibly looked annoyed when I politely said, “Sorry I asked for such and such, not this.” The pastries were extremely stale and literally inedible - there’s no way they were fresh that day. I’ll eat almost anything we had to throw all the pastries in the bin because they tasted like they’d been sitting under a heat lamp for a week.

I love this cafe. Best grilled cheese in Nottingham. They are pricey, but you get what you pay for 100%. I sometimes treat myself after a steam room session at the Victoria leisure centre. It helps having it so close 🤭 it’s very busy during the weekend though and queues can get long in a matter of seconds… food can take a while, but worth waiting.

Nice coffee, nice food but the service has really taken a downward spiral, it is so slow these days. We don't expect or want fast food, but to wait almost fifteen minutes for two Americanos is excessive. There seem to be too many staff buzzing around rather than having one concentrating on making coffee. Hope it improves again as it used to be good.

I have been a few times to the East/West venue for Blend in Nottingham which is beautifully fitted out. Coffee is great and some of the food items too but it just needs to do a few bits better. Bacon ised in the bacon rolls ( or “cobs” locally) is fatty and looks even more unappetising cold in the display cabinet. Similarly the sausage cob. Luckily the egg/ cheese / tomato bagel is nice otherwise I’d probably not bother with food. Needs a bit more breakfast choice (but not too much). Finally if sitting in it’d be much nicer if food/ drink could be brought to table rather than having to hang around and “hovver” near the counter. Will still keep coming but hopefully these tweaks will help perfect things!:-)

Perfect for hanging out with friend or enjoying your me-time ❤️ Food are delicious and instagrammable 📸 But WHY lavender latte is in pink instead of purple ? 😆 Will go back and try the grill cheese sandwich 🤤

I dropped in for a large Americano coffee, and it was terrific. Sat outside on a sunny afternoon to drink it. A richly flavoured, smoky blend, and served hot. The cafe is in a plain building, repurposed from its days as a functional market shed. Blend have artily jazzed the sizeable space up with a blue floor and a sixties-style primary-colours vibe. * I liked it so much I went back for lunch a few days later. Big mistake. I ordered some kind of surdough-and-bacon thing. Basically it was bacon rashers on surdough bread--but it was all soaked in some kind of sweet water. I ate the bacon, which was dripping with the unpleasant sugary liquid, But couldn't eat the soggy sourdough bread. To be fair, my problem with this meal could be just down to me. Maybe someone else might like it. I hadn't planned to eat anything else. But because all I'd eaten was bits of bacon, I decided to follow up with a cinnamon bun and pot of tea. But I couldn't eat the bun either, as it was extremely dry and hard. To be honest, it tasted stale. Can't believe Blend would consciously serve stale buns, so maybe something had gone wrong in its baking, or in its storage labelling? This time, it wasn't just me, because no one would've eaten that thing. A strange experience indeed, since I can't remember being served an inedible bun, cake, or pastry anywhere--including in chain franchises. Only saving grace was the pot of tea, which was excellent. So I'd drink at Blend again but not eat.
