We stayed in Nottingham for 2 days last week and ate at this beautiful cafe on two occasions. Both Andrea and Marco were so friendly, warm and welcoming we tried a few different dishes between us including cakes and pastries and all were delicious!! This will be our number one choice next time we return to Nottingham. Thanks guys!

The most quaint hidden little gem, the veggie breakfast was delicious and it all came super hot and cooked to perfection, the eggs were Divine. The service came with a smile and the Italian coffee is to die for. Keep it up guys .. 🇮🇹

The staff were lovely, really happy and friendly, and ever so helpful. They were like that with everyone that came in. It looked like every table had at least one power socket (with USB-A ports) plus free Wi-fi. All the food I saw looked great, the full English breakfast I had was fantastic, and the coffee was good. It was a cold day but the inside was warm, plus the desserts and cakes on display looked great.

Lovely Italian cafe, food and service was amazing and the owner/ manager was really friendly and accommodating. Great coffees and menu was really good too, I couldn't decide what to have. The cafe seemed to have regulars and everyone was really enjoying the food and atmosphere there. We will definitely go back.

It is a very small café. But I heard the next table comments about their meals. Everyone said that it was very nice. The atmosphere and the waters are very welcoming. Even though I had a cup of coffee and pastry, I felt as best client. If you guys read my comment, thank you very much for my coffee ☕️. Perfect as always

Our first time at the Hungry Pumpkin. We were a party of 9 and were told to ring 15 minutes before so they could set up our table ready. Half our party were late due to traffic and the staff could not have been more accommodating with this. Once the rest of our party had arrived, they finished setting up the table and got all food out quickly and on time with the rest which was impressive as they were super busy. The choices of food were endless and the specials they had on were great. The food we ordered was 10/10, we could not fault anything! We also tried their cake and pastries and they were just as delicious. This place was a great little find and we would highly recommend to anyone.

It wasn't our first visit in the Hungry Pumpkin and we definitely are going to come back. Delicious coffee, very friendly atmosphere and scrumptious food. Additionally, to the authentic and delicious Italian food the cafe offers a selection of other foods like jacket potatoes or wraps, which were a great option for my 2 young children. We loved it!

We visited here whilst in Nottingham for the day, with it coming up as one of the top rated cafes in the city centre. From entering we were greeted straight away, being shown to our seats. We both went for one of the cafes signature dishes, the “Pumpkin Special”. This came with Chorizo, Eggs, Mushrooms, Peppers, Toasted Ciabatta. One with swapped mushrooms for avocado & the other peppers for avocado. The food was absolutely delicious, & I don’t have any criticisms. The waiter, maybe the owner was genuinely lovely throughout time spent at the cafe.

I adore the Hungry Pumpkin and am always happy when I get the chance to go. Nothing beats the warm Italian hospitality and marvellous food, which is not only delicious but also very reasonably priced. They have a wide range of sandwiches, pastas, and breakfast fare, and they serve a lasagna that could convince even the saddest, most beaten-down soul that love is real and life is beautiful. If this place is still open when I have a child (and I hope it will be) I’m taking them here for their birthdays.

We came across this small bistrò walking around Nottingham, hidden in a small street by the Cathedral, caught my attention with the authentic Italian products exposed in their windows.. so we chosen to enter and give it a go! Well, my wife and I were soon welcomed, advised and guided on our choices in the proper Italian way before we discovered that the Manager is both italian and passionate for his own culture and cuisine...The food was simply amazing, tasty and at good price! We didn't have the occasion to be back but we will not miss the occasion next time.. . it's definetly worth to try!

The staff were very friendly, saying hello to every customer as they entered and goodbye as they left. It seemed also to be very popular for takeaway, which is another good sign for the food. From our experience the coffee and hot chocolate was great. See you next time Hungry Pumpkin 🎃

Last weekend, my wife and I, along with a group of friends, had the absolute pleasure of dining at Bar Gigi, and I can honestly say it was one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a long time. The first thing that struck us was the ambience - warm, welcoming, and full of character. The décor inside is absolutely stunning, with a fantastic retro vibe, highlighted by a cool Fiat 500 that instantly caught our eye. It really adds a playful yet stylish touch to the restaurant, and it felt like the perfect setting for a memorable evening. The staff at Bar Gigi were incredible - so friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with smiles and made to feel right at home. They really went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and even took the time to recommend dishes that ended up being absolute highlights of the night. And oh, the food! I don’t even know where to begin because everything was exceptional. The gnocchi was hands down the best I’ve ever tasted - soft, pillowy, and bursting with flavour. The parmesan pillows were a revelation - so crispy on the outside yet unbelievably fluffy inside. We were all raving about them! The calamari was another standout - perfectly cooked and seasoned, with a light batter that didn’t overwhelm the delicate flavour. Every dish was clearly made with care and attention, and it was all just so satisfying. We left the restaurant feeling full and incredibly happy, already planning our next visit. Bar Gigi is the kind of place you just want to keep coming back to - for the food, the atmosphere, and the brilliant people who make it all happen. It’s safe to say this won’t be our last visit - thank you, Bar Gigi, for such a wonderful evening!
