Quayside Cafe (Nottingham) Ltd in Gedling

I have been to Quayside on many occasions and the food has always been of a high standard The staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them If you haven’t visited this cafe put it on your wish list you won’t be disappointed

Easily the best cafe I've ever been to. Fantastic decoration, great atmosphere, polite and efficient staff, huge portions, tasty, hot, well cooked food and possibly the poshest cafe toilets I've ever seen. 20/10, this place is the absolute gold standard of cafes.

Beautiful interior and food ,great selection of food as well Definitely recomend a vist

We had a lovely breakfast here.We were very pleased to have stumbled across it whilst staying locally.

Always a good visit for a Saturday morning hangover. Food here is top quality, great service. Pricey but worth it. This place is dog friendly and runner friendly so if your not fond of either of them go elsewhere. Joking aside, it's always busy(because it's so popular). The wife and I will continue to visit for our hangover cure for as long as we're able to. Only slight con for this establishment is the small parking area

Nice cafe, always busy. Not particularly cheap but nice friendly atmosphere

Just a great cafe . Lovely food and great service

The cafe has a nice ambiance and is beautifully decorated, which initially set high expectations. I ordered the Shakshuka, Slim Breakfast, and the "Award-Winning" Americano coffee. Unfortunately, the experience was underwhelming. The Shakshuka was one of the most disappointing versions I’ve tried. It was essentially a poached egg dropped into raw tomato puree, lacking any depth of flavor or seasoning. The Americano was equally disappointing—watery, with no distinct aroma or flavor that one would expect from an award-winning coffee. I approached the counter to provide feedback and requested a replacement dish. The chef was called in but seemed indifferent to my comments, dismissing my concerns by stating there had been no prior complaints. Despite the lackluster response, I ordered an omelette instead. Overall, while the ambiance was inviting, the quality of the food and customer service fell short of expectations.

Great place. Good service. Clean. Dogs are welcome and prices good

Great staff, great food, Rachel is amazing, lovely doggie place. It's our favourite place to meet family and friends ❤️🥰x

Best to book a table between 10 and 13.00 can get busy limited parking spaces

Ok cafe but overpriced. Staff are great, atmosphere is great, dog friendly but food not worth the price. Chips are very expensive for such a small amount, more than a restaurant. Only time I've had a bacon and mushroom omelette where the overcooked mushrooms and the bacon were shoved in the middle with the "omelette" folded over them and not cooked inthe eggs, weird.

Food a bit tasteless and too many dogs at one time

Amazing birthday breakfast with family, really clean, friendly staff, did happy birthday song and cake, made my day, thank you

Thought we would give this place a try. Unusual setting in an industrial unit, but benefits from parking right outside the door. Called on a Saturday and it was pretty busy, and also pretty noisy. Quite a few younger families and groups. Managed to get a table not far from the open door, which was quite chilly. I ordered the pancakes which were lovely, covered in fresh fruit. The only downside is they were a little cold. Partner had the large cooked breakfast, slightly greasy and obviously pre cooked. Prices were competitive, so on the whole not bad value.

sorry to leave a less than favourable review, but after waiting in a long line, I didn't fancy the look of the food which all looked a bit greasy (I have never seen mushy beans before). The croissant was stale and the coffee tasted very instant like. Again sorry for the less than glowing review

Little bit hard to find, as it is in a business estate, signs are up but not visible from all directions. A cafe with a difference, loverly leather seats with very nice tables, food was great and tasty

Only had a coffee but first class all the way

Just delivered to MKM building supplies and had breakfast roll and salad box off your delivery van it was one of the best boxes I've had absolutely crammed full with chicken and ham and cheese all fresh and tasty👍wish I lived local would be in your cafe all the time ***** Kevin

Best place I've been introduced to in ages. Absolutely lovely place,food & staff. Dog friendly too.

Popped in for breakfast on a rainy Wednesday morning. Very pleasant environment, extensive menu which also caters for veggies and vegans. Very dog friendly too, with 2 dogs in there when I visited. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely perfect staff are lovley and polite and breakfast is fantastic xx

A lovely unexpected delight tucked away on an industrial estate. 👍 The food is amazing, the choice and quality is very good. All home cooked. And dogs welcome too.

We were told we couldn’t order coffee as the person serving had “already done the coffee machine”. Place closes at 3 but appears to stop serving over half an hour before that. Disappointing.

great place, great food. there is also a secure area for your bikes. we stopped off here for some lunch while on a bike ride. atmosphere is great

Best restaurant in Nottingham by far.

Really nice meal, and great prices!

The best breakfast in Nottingham! Great dog friendly hidden gem!

As a field service engineer travelling all of the UK this cafe tops them all from the food to the toilets. A hidden gem. The staff can not do enough for you really friendly.

Love the small veggie breakfast and sourdough toast!

Nice place, decent breakfast - was nice and the service and place were both great! Well worth a visit if you are in the area

Had a brilliant breakfast here today with family. Food was hot and tasty and the staff are lovely. Will definitely return.

Really nice cafe. Quite modern used locally sourced ingredients

Very good quality, food is well presented and hot, the salad bar looks fresh and inviting, highly recommended

Food is worth the price, and staff are polite and helpful . Recommend you try it out.

What a lovely place to eat with your four-legged family members! Great food, friendly, helpful staff, relaxed, warm atmosphere. Beats being stuck in dark a corner in a pub away from the most comfortable seats and the best views!!

A visit to one of favourite cafes in Nottingham. We had to have a couple of their breakfasts. One small £7.70 One Large £9.20 They were served very promptly, and everything was absolutely delicious and filling as usual. It's a lovely venue and dog friendly.

Noisy because of birthday party but was okay with us

My first visit but I will be back.

My first visit today and will definitely be back 👍😁🌞

Thankyou so much to the staff members who pulled out all the stops for my son on his birthday! It was a complete surprise as they lovingly played happy birthday and bought him a slice of cake 🎂 it made his day!

Really surprising place in the middle of an industrial estate. The breakfast options are great & value for money. Food was well cooked & tasted delicious. We had take away baps for work & would highly recommend. The layout & design of the cafe is delightful & it is dog friendly so well worth a detour from the park.

Fabulous cafe..wanted more to eat as there's so much choice that tempts! but visiting friends only wanted coffee which they loved & asked to buy a bag to take home 😆 Wish I lived a lot closer but I will come back as much as I can when over that way. I had a brie & cranberry toastie which was really nice.

It was the first time we went there. It was very busy on a Saturday afternoon as expected. We had to wait 40 minutes for a hot drink. The sandwich I ordered was really tasteless. The waitresses were clumsy and not really friendly. Such a pity.

Good food,clean surroundings. A bit of a enigma; not a top notch restaurant, not a greasy spoon either. However is very nice. Bit of a hidden gem.

A great place to meet for coffee and lunch. Extra hot coffee as ordered was delicious and the tea cake came with butter and jam. My friend enjoyed a small cooked breakfast and as she sat eating it my mouth was watering! The only problem this time for me was the parking. I eventually found a spot near to the main road. My friend has mobility problems so it was a bit of a faff.

Visited on a Saturday morning. Breakfast was very greasy and could tell sausages and bacon was pre cooked for a while. Major difference since last visit.

Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere, great decor and gorgeous food!

Good food and nice clean cafe, lovely staff, plenty of parking 😊

Very fast efficient service great food

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Lovely scrambled eggs with mushrooms. Seating and decor super! Really lovely cafe!

hidden gem 💎 food , staff , surroundings amazing 👏

Good vegan options. A little pricey but would def go back.

No bad points. Strange location as not on a main street but still over 50% full. Breakfast was excellent and priced about right. Nice decor and great serving staff. Worth the journey.

Easily accommodated our group of 8 scooter / motorcycle riders and the food was served quite quickly by friendly staff. Good quality breakfast. Being fairly new the cafe was clean and well decorated

8 of us on motorbike's turned up for breakfast... virtually perfect.. cant fault anything.. one of the best we've been to... strongly recommended...

Mad spot you’d not expect at the back of an industrial estate. Classic menu. Warm friendly service.

A real gem of a cafe, food is great, and service is so quick.

A lovely little cafe tucked away on an industrial estate but don't let that put you off. The staff are friendly, the cafe itself is welcoming and the food is delicious! Lots of options for different needs. Will definitely be back.

First visit here whilst waiting for an MOT, was a lovely atmosphere, great food, nice variety and staff we're very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be returning in future!

Love this cafe a good choice of food big servings

Purchased two large breakfasts. We didn’t have to wait long after ordering and they were very good value for money with huge portions and were hot & tasty. Only suggestion would be to somehow let customers know that they find their own table and go to the counter to order as it wasn’t clear (or I didn’t see any signs) so we loitered until we saw a member of staff. Staff seemed very friendly and attentive. Would recommend & will be back as I want to try those special eggs! they sound delicious! Oh and plenty of parking outside which is handy.

What a fantastic find. Busy, bustling 'cafe'. Very spaciouse, comfortable eatery. A real gem in the middle of an industrial zone.

Love this place. Not a huge fan of Cumberland sausage with a breakfast but 6 stars nonetheless.

Found this place on Google maps. It's a super place for breakfast and lunch. Tucked away on a business park with easy on road parking. Love going here with friends and family. Very extensive menu for veggies and omnivores.

This is no greasy spoon. One of if not thee best cafes around. Top quality food and great service. It’s a little gem tucked away.

The food was excellent and the staff are so friendly 😋

Cracking café, hidden away on Colwick industrial estate. Will definitely be going again.

Do some good grub in ere... Highly recommend if you work on the estate

First time visiting again, and I would definitely go back. Lovely breakfast, drinks and service. 10/10.

Lovely little hidden gem of a cafe. Funky decor and great food.

Very good it must be been lots of time

First time visit,very nice food and beverage choices as well as cakes sausage rolls. Disabled toilet facilities. Only down side is NO Disabled parking bays.but would visit again

The ladies that run this place really know what they are doing. As a Batfast Employee I visit the cafe regularly and I'm never disappointed. The sausage and bacon cobs are top notch. Definitely worth a visit.

Had breakfast a few times and lunch, food is really nice

A diamond in an industrial estate.

Lovely food and gorgeous decor. Highly recommend. Will definitely be going again

Off the beaten track, this place isn't easy to find, but well worth a visit. Quirky decor, clean and tidy. Plenty of choice of food, lots of staff (5 or 6 in the kitchen), and good prices. It gets really busy at lunchtimes (it's on an industrial estate), but don't let the wait put you off - it's worth it.

Very nice all round very friendly and I like you can take dogs in as well thanks to Rachel very good service all the time

Speciality diets friendly. Dog friendly. Cyclist friendly. Really bleddy friendly! What an absolute gem!

Food was lovely and a nice relaxing cafe with nice features

Came here after seeing it on Facebook a few times and knowing if the owners. It's lovely and spacious, welcoming, child, dog and wheelchair friendly. Plenty of seats and a wide open kitchen so you see everything being cooked. Friendly staff especially one lady, who was very approachable, nothing was too much trouble, I think she was the manager, but not 100% sure. Will definitely be coming again.

Brilliant, food cooked quick, everything was tasty, staff are friendly.

If you want a traditional breakfast that has quality then the Quayside Cafe is for you. The eggs are fresh, the sausage superb & the bacon a winner. The staff are polite, friendly and helpful, the decor & seating spot on, all I can add is go give it a try 👍

Lovely little place with very nice staff. Popped in there while my windscreen was being replaced down the road and had some tea and toast. Plenty of plugs and tables for working space. Really highly recommend.

First visit and impressed: will be returning.

Lovely place to have breakfast, really good service, good food great staff

Lovely very large cobs here. A bit of a wait for drinks but it was very busy. Dog friendly and quirky loos!

Just popped into this delightful café coffee and cake was fabulous 😁 our Server was Sonya fantastic service with a smile ☺

Heard a lot of good things about this place. No idea why a cafe on an industrial site(not a dog walking route) welcomes dogs! It really does put me off seeing people feeding their dogs at and ON the table unchallenged. Watching them put food into the dogs mouth and petting them then touching sauce bottles and cutlery that other people may touch is gross...and no i dont hate dogs , i just believe theres a time and a place. Our 2 small breakfasts arrived, mine was minus the sausage which they rectified straight away without any fuss. My wife sadly pulled the longest hair from her mouth that was wrapped up in her mushrooms, again we were immediately offered a fresh breakfast or a refund. My food was really nice to be fair but my wife was really put off. Strangely all of the female staff had their hair tied up top of their heads when really hairnets all round would have been a much more hygienic option. All in all a disappointing first visit.

We went for Sunday breakfast and it's the best we've tried since covid. 5 stars for service, staffing, and quality of bacon, poached eggs, Cumberland sausage, mushrooms, coffee with cream.! This cost 30% less than garden center offerings. With this value, Sunday mornings can be very busy and noisy.!

1st time visiting Quayside Cafe and will definately be going back. Myself and daughter both had a small brekky and grandson had a double stack burger, beautifully cooked and presented. Good quality food you get what you pay for. Staff were lovely. The bonus is taking your pooch in after a walk.

Great as you can take your dog. Good food. Service sometimes slow with drinks not coming with food ordered.

First time here, service was really good but food was very disapionting. Ordered sausage and egg cobs and the the egg was well over done. The sausage was not much to shout about either. Good menu selection but very pricey.

Got be the best bacon egg and mushroom cob I've ever had. I'm be back

Food was really good and the staff were super polite, it's bizzarely lush decore in the middle of a random industrial estate.

Amazing food from this hidden gem! Great quality ingredients used in the breakfast we had and super generous portions. It was busy at 1pm on a Tuesday in January which shows just how good this place is. There is free WiFi and there were a number of people working from here which was great to see. Prices are reasonable and are completely worth every penny!

First time visit Saturday 21st January at 10.15am. Cafe is obviously popular as plenty of people eating. My husband and I would give our breakfast 6/10 beans were cold, and the sausage was overcooked. Staff were efficient and attentive. Plenty of dogs in the cafe, we're fond of dogs but were shocked that 2 women sitting in one of the booths, had their dog sitting on the cafe seating, and joining in the eating of the breakfast! This particular dog was extremely loud barking constantly, until the food arrived. Unfortunately we would not return.

Absolutely brilliant. First time visit today, lovely friendly place to go and eat. Dog friendly and well. Food was delicious

What a great place. Came across while waiting for my car in the garage across the road. Lovely coffee and cake. The rest of the food looked great Will definitely go again
