BobbersMill Cafe in Nottingham

Ignorant staff moaned about me moving salt and pepper pot. Charged us for plastic knife and fork. Toast okay breakfast shocking gone downhill dramatically. - Tony “spireite” White

This is a great place to come to eat . Nothing is to much trouble and the price us right...

One of the last true authentic transport cafes left. Great simple proper food. Great staff that talk to you. Great atmosphere where you are made to feel very welcome. 10/10. How things used to be before the world went mad

Called in on Monday for an sos and tea. My favourite cafe. Made a special 40 mile journey as we have moved from the area. Did not disappoint. What a treat. The sos is brilliant. Will definitely be back.

Staff make you feel welcome and food is 10/10

It's an old transport cafe that serves you things for £3.17 or £4.71 THE SOS MIX. on a doorstep sandwich Good liver and onions. Splendid fodder. And banter off Mrs Mop

Amazing cafe. Such good value and staff are great. The lady cleaning the tables was that perfect mix of friendly and gobby that you only get at the finest greasy spoons and pubs. Will be visiting every time I’m in the area

Very nice cafe great atmosphere and the staff are really friendly.. Prices are very reasonable to. Definitely visit again

Great cafe Great food Great staff I go in for a large door step saus I love it. Go in this cafe every time I am in or passing Nottingham Dave from Leicester

Fond memories as a16 year old apprentice being introduced to the delights of a 'large sos with'. Still make the odd pilgramage, 47 years later.

Absolutely brilliant fantastic food used to go in the 80s was great then it's got even better .. .bigger menu still go for the famous SOS sarnie everytime ......long my it last

A traditional greasy spoon but in a good way

Such a friendly bunch great food

Great place to eat. Cheap food. Annoying cleaner who keeps sticking her beak into people's conversations. Should be sacked

Please use good ketchup and brown sauce it's horrible...quick update on my last review posted below this... Good news is that the group of foul mouthed men have seemed to of disappeared over recent months so great.. They just need some nice red and brown sauce rather than what ever they use and pass it as sauce (it certainly is not Good old Heinz) and the lady removing plates from tables needs to stop swearing whilst cleaning and this place would be a gem of a cafe, good value good service great food but poor sauces... Worth a visit... Previous post:-Great little cafe but it's a shame that a daily table of old fellas sit for over an hour with just a cuppa and one constantly swears in every sentence at high volume.. Don't wanna be hearing a bombardment of the F word whilst eating breakfast.. What a potty mouth.. Won't be bringing family here that is for sure!!!!

21/02/2024 Good food, had build your own breakfast, cooked perfectly. Good tea at a very reasonable price. Friendly staff and customers.

Had an omelette which my usual order,normally its golden,light and fluffy.Todays offering was like a dark brown crusted lump.!!! Bitterly dissatisfied, I have to have protein every day so eggs are my go to.Fried,boiled,scrambled,But omelette are my favourite but today the mill disappointed.

Stop here on my way into Nottingham every time when I visit from Manchester. Spot on 😁

Always good food made to measure 😊😂

Fantastic old cafe with treditional food

Had a medium breakfast and a mug of tea here very early this morning after calling into the Citroen garage. Service was fast, food excellent and the price was really good value. The place is spotless too. I almost went into McDonalds, which is virtually next door, but decided to give this cafe a try. I’m really pleased that I did! I’ll be back 😎

Great prices, friendly staff and good authentic cafe food. We had a full English, sausage sandwich and two teas for £12. Can see why this place is a bit of a local legend.

What a great place this is.... Great food..... Great prices..... what's not to love !!. Will be back soon 😀😀

Amazing food and the service is out of the world and there food for party and entertainment is so amazing

I have been going in bobbers mill cafe since 1965 the pot collectors have allways been a funny lot

Sos meat on doorstep is spot on keep up the good work.

Think anyone that leaves BobbersMill Cafe a poor review doesn't understand the basics. After you've eaten, place the cups on the plates as asked. It's no Michelin star place, just good nosh with a good brew. Fill your belly and go! 👍

the food is cooked after u ordered so its cooked freshan I very clean

Used to live just round the corner and used to come here regularly for breakfast at the weekend. That was over 30 years ago and by chance I happened to stay overnight in Nottingham and treated myself to breakfast here on the way home to Manchester. I had the 'special' which is two sausage, two bacon, one egg, fried bread, mushrooms, beans (or tomato) two toast and a mug of tea (or coffee). It was all pretty decent - definitely no complaints given how cheap it is though I could feel my arteries hardening after I'd finished - I've not had fried bread since I was a kid The fact that's it's been going since 1936 is great

Went there this morning but unfortunately it was closed which is disappointing as I love this place.

Great place, very pleasant staff food cooked as it should be,great prices, cheapest place I've been

Food was really good for only a £5, A whole English Breakfast!!!Great Price!100% would recommend!

Great sos and tom doorstep. Spotlessly clean as well. Unfortunately the lady that clears the tables has an unbelievably foul mouth and the way she speaks to customers isn't right.

Last went in 20 yr ago ,not changed a bit

Friendly staff, quickly served hot food at a good price x

Had a breakfast today and it was horrible what's has happen mill cafe

Good food and the lady cleaning the tables will make or break your day!!

Plate was covered in oil food tasted cheap undercooked and full of grease the yellow on the pic isn’t my egg either that’s the dirty grease

Beef stroganoff for five quid! Amazing 🤩 Looks clean and tidy.

A proper working persons cafe. Just as it was years, and I mean Years ago. Doorstep bread filled with tastey sausage and a step ladder to climb up the side of it to start the chomping.

The best place for miles to get something to eat. The doorstep breakfast sandwiches are a must. We regularly get a takeaway breakfast sandwich. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, wouldn't go anywhere else. 👍👍👍👍👍 five ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all the time.

Great menu. Lively cafe. Really nice breakfast. Recipes are amazing. Very cheap. Lovely staff.

Best sausage meat sandwich in the midlands.

Great old fashioned transport cafe at old fashioned prices

Very busy and could do with number system for food orders.

Savoury sausage is a delight, just like my mother used to make. Bit more expensive than some breakfasts but worth the extra for quality ingredients and almost unlimited options to customise it to your particular taste. Well worth a visit.

Plenty of food on your plate and at reasonable prices. The Saus meat is excellent on full English breakfast

My dad took me here since I was 11 I always was looking forward to a SOS cob and tom thanks girls are brilliant great service always pop in can't beat it proper nice food keep it up and god bless when the boss passed lovely man he's cup of tea always amazing.

Been popping in here for years. This place has always had the best and tastiest home made food available. Breakfast is great and the home made cakes are delicious.. always love going in for a hot dinner followed by cake and custard. No matter when you go in you are always greeted with friendly faces and conversation. Sad to hear the owner has recently passed I remember when my daughter was a baby and he gave her a small dog soft toy which I still have and he was making her smile. Steffan was one of the nicest people ever. The prices are unbeatable such low prices for such quality food. You won't be disappointed stopping off here for food I guarantee! Hope the staff and family continue the business. Best of luck 💗

Excellent food, which is always hot, tasty and very quick service. Also, cheap as chips!! Very clean. I would thoroughly recommend!

Top notch as always. Although the lady on the till was all over the shop.

The bobber mill cafe friendly very good for the price of the food the cleaner there does a great job and very friendly

Fantastic food, no waiting time as it's all cooked ready. Prices are cheaper than McDonald's across the road.

Top notch breakfast no need to say more phil

Huge portions, doorstop toast and classic cafe atmosphere!

Used for years but unfortunately this morning I had a hair on my egg and bacon was pale and not cooked great. No mushrooms and no butter on bread. Sorry.

Overall food/hot drinks reasonable prices (they had a price increase, which everybody in the hospitality has had to do) everything good 👍

Menu can be a little confusing regarding the breakfasts but now we'd understand to ask for all in depending on what size you wanted. We'll recommended for a pit stop.

Always great food at a competitive price Personally ive been visiting for over 40 years when im in the area and always have a large sos with brown sauce absolutely lovely

U want quick good food .pop here

I'v been going to this cafe for over 50 years. If you want great value for money this is the place to eat. It's always been a transport cafe as well as a great out of town cafe. Not posh but fantastic if you want great food. Opens early but closes mid afternoon. enjoy the sos their special,

Brilliant proper food and service.

Great breakfast the sausage meat and doorstep bread is proper old school food fantastic

been popping in there for years from early 70s,, large sos on door step lovely

Lovely food and a nice clean place to go for a proper English breakfast

Reminds me of old transport cafes of yesteryear , just a no nonsense place to fill ya belly up, friendly staff, everything is clear and great not like stupid posh restaurants

Visibly horrid and tasted nasty, looks like someone threw up in a box. The beans and tomatoes had 80% juice, the bacon was very fatty, and the eggs were very oily. I have heard great things about this place, but either standards have dropped significantly or a change in staff has ruined what was supposedly good about this cafe.

Been going here since the 70s Real old fashioned transport cafe Food is really good value and good to Loads better than the fast food joint opposite Would definitely recommend

The cafe is amazing. The employees are awesome too especially Stef. I ordered a full English breakfast with 2 fried toast, fried egg, 2 hash browns,2 sausages, bacon, mushrooms, beans and tinned tomatoes. The quality of the food is exquisite, everything is perfect. I'm surprised that when I go into the cafe it isn't packed. The whole place is fully clean, the seats are wooden but are still very comftorble. They have everything from Fanta to oasis. The toilets although small are very well looked after. I can't think of anything negative to say about this cafe. I also love that you get what you pay for as everything is either very cheap or perfectly priced. I would recommend to everyone I know to go to this cafe no matter the age.

Nice food, lady who cleans the tables brilliant laugh, full of banter.

Been going there for 50+ years👍👍👍

Proper cafe. Excellent food and great prices.

Very efficient staff, food is very good and fairly priced

A bit unclear when your food is ready and not fresh coffee but instant coffee. For the rest it was alright

top food always be clean and friendly cafe. and the SOS meat sandwich is the best money can buy. And just had very good dinner today 16th August 2018 and very good price.

Fab breakfast and lovely staff. Perfect when you need a tasty traditional English breakfast! (Vegetarian option was great also)

Breakfast 2nd to none . Perfect start to the day 👌

A proper greasy spoon, none left really in Nottingham. A proper breakfast, steaming cuppa out of a pot, had a full breakfast, a belly filler, sausage meat, black pudding, bread and butter, sausage, bacon, eggs, beans, tomatoes, proper, two of us, £15 and no need for a mask, lovely, give it a try!!

Been going for 35 years still the best. But breakfasts got smaller.

Wow..... food hot and tasty. Staff so nice! Going back in time when good grub was good.

Traditional cafe with speciality "sos", always worth a visit

One of the best breakfast I had in a long time food was delicious and red. 🔥 And the staff were great 👍 and the home made sausage meat is the best 😋

So 1st time in this cafe I would say 👍👍 not as cheap as Vic Centre but defo better quality food even sell bubble'n'squeek

Brill.. Never changed As the title explains Famous cafe & still does not dissapoint Cheap & best grub still Don't change a thing guys Plus the pretty little girl behind the counter Another reason to visit
