Music was really substandard. It’s as shame as the venue is actually quite nice but instead of playing relaxing music they play rather crappy lightweight pop stuff that no one wants to listen to when they’re chilling. It’s not tough to play relaxing stuff. A real shame.

Unfortunately no Guinness, though was on the menu. Enjoyed my cocktail "into the woods"? Also, the peroni had to be changed half way through serving 2 pints and you could tell the difference between the 2 drinks. Just for info, Steep stairs and a unisex loo

Went for afternoon tea. The venue itself is great and the cocktails look delicious. I will definitely come again for a pre dinner cocktail. But the afternoon tea was a bit disappointing and the service very slow when it wasn’t really busy and lots of staff around. We waited 15 minutes for our pot of tea at the end. The scones and cupcakes were very dry and the savouries nothing special for the price. We have had much better afternoon tea in other places- but defo recommend for a cocktail!

Booked the bottomless afternoon tea here after we couldn’t get in for brunch at sister venue The Magic Garden. Overall I’d describe the experience as average, breaking down the various elements as follows: Ambience/table: Hockley Arts Club is an interesting and quirky venue set across several levels. I think of it more of an evening bar than afternoon tea location so was interesting to see it in daylight. We didn’t have the best table, almost in the entrance of the ‘Blue’ level and under some icy air con. I’d recommend asking for a table upstairs in the Electric Garden - would have been good to have had the different areas explained when booking - as this had a much warmer and better atmosphere. Food/drink: With bottomless Prosecco, an alcoholic iced tea concoction served from teapots plus a cocktail menu to work your way through, the emphasis is definitely on the booze rather than the food element of the afternoon tea which is largely unremarkable. Between two of us we had a plate each of beige savoury bites, tiny quiches, a scrap of sausage roll and some bland sandwiches. The sweet layer was better with brownies, scones etc. Again nothing different or special. Value for money: At £37.95 for 1.5hrs of bottomless Prosecco plus cocktails you can certainly get your money’s worth on the booze front if the mood takes you. It balances out what’s lacking on the food side. Service: Seemed some of the comments on here have been noted as service was attentive and friendly with regular drink top-ups. In summary this is nice enough but wouldn’t add to a list of Nottingham’s finest afternoon teas, there are better experiences to be found.

Up-market venue with table service. Cocktails more expensive than average, but the venue was better than average! Good sevice and quality ingredients in the cocktails. Many steep steps (including to the toilets), so may not be suitable for some people. Only downside is unisex toilets, though they were mostly clean.

Afternoon tea yesterday was very disappointing, as regular afternoon tea patrons it was really sub standard in comparison to Harts or Browns which are a similar price- you should go and check what they offer. Staff were new, but even with pre ordering no one seemed to know what there actually was on the classic or bottomless tea. No one explained any of the sandwiches or cakes, we had to guess what they were. Sandwiches were not fresh, dried up and fillings not easily identifiable, same with the cakes. Scone had jam and synthetic cream on the top of it! Very odd offering all round and not as advertised at all. Service was slow and then we were rushed out at the end as there was a time limit on table. Not good value or quality all round for a birthday celebration. Took ages to pay at the end and tried to overcharge based on deposit already paid- shame as good venue and have eaten there in the evening before which was better.

This is a great venue with a vibrant atmosphere. I went for an afternoon tea and was seriously disappointed with the quality of the food. Margarine was used instead of butter and was spread too thickly. The vegan food was not good, at one point I did not know what I was eating, though it looked vaguely like mushrooms. The vegan cheese used was dry enough to be curling up at the edges. I won’t be going again

We came for afternoon tea I had pre booked ahead a vegan afternoon tea however they didn’t have oat milk so the guy had to go out and get some. We waited a long time he apologised as they had a table of 22 in and we were left waiting. The ambience was fab but the food was dire and not too sure what was in some of the pastry cases it tasted odd. One of the cakes on the vegan selection tasted liked sawdust squashed together. No disabled toilet my friend who was in her 70’s had to struggle up a 100 steps to get in the venue and get to the toilet. Very disappointed as the place looked fabulous online but very overpriced.

Awful service!! Clearly the management or whoever responds to the other comments on here doesn't learn from their mistakes. We visited on a Saturday night about 6pm. There wasn't many people in and no greeting at the door so we walked in to find our own table. Waited a while but weren't served so I went to the bar. I was told it was table service!! Clearly the bar person's idea of service and mine are completely different. So we left and went to another bar over the road. I told the bar person in the new bar and they said "Ah yes, they're having a few issues" Apparently the person behind the bar in the Hockley Arts Club pulled a face at me (behind my back) as I walked out - I wouldn't have had her cleaning the toilets in the bars I've managed - beyond useless! There are plenty of other places to visit in Notts, so I'd avoid this place!!

Absolutely awful experience, stood at the “wait here to be seated” sign, ignored by staff (manager just behind us) for a lengthy time. Felt like we were an inconvenience, not busy at all , almost empty infact , wonder why?! Eventually shown to a table , ignored again . Had to approach the bar to ascertain whether table service or order at the bar ; only 3 tables full at this point! No table service we were told, but nobody came , others complaining to waitress at the time . This used to be a lovely venue for drinks , never , ever again will we walk into this bar . We went across the road to be told that this place is having issues and many people complaining , GET YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE SORTED , empty seats on a Saturday lunch time smacks of poor service!

Visited for a bottomless afternoon tea for my birthday and would highly recommend, having only visited on a night out previously. Loved the food, all tasted fresh and was exactly the kind of thing we were after. Drinks were also great and staff were attentive for topping up for the 'bottomless' aspect. Special shout out to the peach ice tea cocktail which I loved!

We have always had a really nice afternoon tea at Hockley Arts Club but this time we were really disappointed. The food had obviously been standing out for a while as the sandwiches, quiche and sausage rolls were warm. Even the couple of flowers thrown on the cakes had wilted!! Drinks were not topped up as quickly as usual and I am still waiting for the cocktail I ordered about half way through! Some fillings were not nice at all!! No smoked salmon anymore! Presentation 0/5!! I an sorry to say we will be looking for somewhere else to go next time.

Ageism at its finest. The place was practically empty and we were quizzed by two separate member of staff as to whether we had booked or not. We had not booked and there were lots of empty tables when we arrived and it was even less busy when we left. The staff member who eventually seated us lead us to a separated side room with no other customers in there. We commented that we were being hidden from view as obviously we’re ’old’ (we are 57 and 50) in front of the staff member who made no attempt to disabuse us of what we had just said. Had a drink and left. Don’t worry, we won’t bring our aged bodies into your establishment again.

I would avoid paying for a bottomless anything here. We went for afternoon tea we had three stale sandwiches, empty vol au vent cases and soggy macaron . The food was shocking! We also, in our hour and a half, managed four drinks and only because twice we went to find a member of staff to get a drink. The second time being told you only have 10 mins left anyway. Tried to talk to the staff about the experience but they were “busy” and walked off. Don’t be fooled by the pics online that’s definitely not what you get.

What an amazing place! 3 floors of different characteristics with good ranges of drinks and great staff. We started off on the top floor and worked out way down. Top floor was a classy 'cocktail bar' vibe, middle floor more relaxed with a great 'chilled' atmosphere and table service and then a nightclub style bar in the ground floor. Something for everyone. Staff were all really friendly too. Didn't know this place existed but still definitely be back

Booked Hockley Arts Club for my 21st birthday, it was a party of 13, 8 people had preordered for the bottomless, 3 people had booked for just the afternoon tea with one cocktail and one processco. 2 people didn’t want afternoon tea at all due to not wanting certain food and drinks. When we arrived the waiter didn’t even introduce himself, he just put us in the room, and left us with menus on the table for cocktails. With a bottomless experience i would expect at least a welcome but also someone explaining how the 90mintues works, considering 11 of us have preordered and 3 of those people are also not doing bottomless but a different meal plan. Nothing was explained and we were expected to just understand how everything works! I then realized there were two chairs which have not be added to the table despite I booked a table for 13 people. It took them awhile and a few reminders to bring a chair, the waiter bought us one chair and I then had to ask again for another, in which a waitress who I saw working at the bar came in and literally threw it across the room, she didn’t put it in place or around the table. Just literally threw it. Incredibly rude, and abrupt behavior. Felt as though we were an inconvenience to her shift. Already this experience began to get a bit stressful when I expected with preordering and booking a table it would have already been organized. At this point we still hadn’t received our welcome cocktails or been able to order them, again because the process was not explained we did not know if the people with different set menus could get the same cocktails on the menu. The waiter then began to tell one of the party members on bottomless brunch that she couldn’t have the one from the menu, completely confusing everyone. At this point on my 21st birthday I was getting very flustered by the situation they have put us in and then suddenly food was being put on our table with no explanation what the sandwich’s are and some people still not even having a glass of processco yet. The food was just put on the table with cards with veggie, gluten and classic which I thought was great, but no organisation , or anyone checking if everything is being run smoothly or how it was going for us. The service was really quite terrible. At this point whilst everyone was eating , I had to go to the bar to speak to someone else and I wish I knew his name but he was so lovely and within a few minutes he had sorted out our welcome cocktails and also explained how the process worked. He explained that obviously they don’t see how many people put down the deposit etc so that why there may be some confusion. So I completely understand that some things were out of their control, however what is in their control is good, polite, service. As a customer I shouldn’t feel like I’m being a nag by asking for our drinks, asking for chairs for my party to sit on and I had booked for. Other than that, the food was great, everyone enjoyed it. The bottomless Prosecco did end up coming out faster after being stalled for a good 45mins, and the atmosphere and music is great in there. For future there needs to be more organisation for a big party, better service that’s actually polite and not half arsed.

Absolutely appalling service We spent over £300 at the bar, my parents are 70yrs of age and when i come to visit they always like to go there for a dance and cocktails. We had been served by an english guy all night who was lovely and then towards the end of the night was served by a very rude foreign guy with a goaty beard. There was mix up with a vodka instead of changing it, he thought it was ok to argue! No customer service! Let’s agree to disagree and then thought it was ok charge us again! No customer service! I wouldn’t want him serving in my bar!!

Such a great place for delicious drinks! You can choose between three floors which have different vibes (Stockholm is more for dancing, The Blue Rooms is great to chill and chat in a very cosy, warm atmosphere, and The Electric Gardens is perfect to chat and hang out in a nature oriented decor). The cocktails are slightly different between all three venues (although a couple of drinks are available on all three menus). The staff is super friendly. My personal favourite is the Blue Rooms. The cocktails are honestly amazing and well worth the slightly higher prices. Even when a drink isn’t quite what one would go for, they still taste great, perfectly balanced and full of flavour! Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for a chilled vibe and delicious drinks.

I tried to be respectful and discuss this with them privately before leaving a review, however my email has been ignored. I had an afternoon tea booking a couple of weeks ago, and it was just shocking. The tables were disgusting and sticky, the crockery was dirty, the girls had an incredibly unwelcoming attitude and the food was minimal and lacking any effort. One sandwich was just bacon fat. Another was just chopped red pepper and cress perhaps (?). One sandwich with a smearing of what I believe was egg. We were abandoned in the side room, with no "is everything OK for you?". We had to find someone to ask for our drinks we had pre ordered. We were also overcharged. I was embaressed that I was the one that had chosen this venue for the family and upset for us all. I would hope that this was a one off, but from our experience, I would not recommend at all.

Expensive but beautiful bar. The interior is atmosperic and beautifully decorated, very 1940s esque. Would highly reccomend if you want a more quieter and sophisticated experience.

This is a beautiful place no doubt but the service was terrible! Left waiting for ages to order drinks, they took forever to come despite staff standing around and we nearly forgot to pay as we were sat there so long waiting for the bill that we thought we must have paid already. We had to chase people around to get our bill. It wasn’t even full.

My husband and I were given a voucher last Christmas for a bottomless afternoon tea for two. I was a little sceptical having read some reviews but will always make my own mind up on the day. All I can say was that we were...

Great time visiting the area and especially the arts club. First time out in Nottingham. We were a large group and immediately given a warm welcome by Esma who arranged a private room for us. She confidentiality took our orders and we received them quickly. The surroundings were awesome and just right for our group. Would love to visit again and sample even more of the warm welcome and atmosphere. Thank you ☺️

After hearing great things about the bottomless afternoon tea six of us booked to go and it’s safe to say we will not return. It started out by despite having booked at one price and deposit paid we were emailed to say it had gone up yet the old price was still on the website which we did complain about but to no avail but as we had heard such good things we decided despite this we would still go. On the day We were crammed into a booth that was too small for 6 people because the people in the room we had booked had not left yet. There was a speaker in the booth so we could not hear a word that was said. The staff were not attentive at all and didn’t really seem to know what was going on. The prosecco was horrible and did not flow and despite us asking for no fish which we reiterated and it was confirmed two of the trays had no fish I bit into a salmon sandwich which I detest and when I complained all I got was at least your not allergic!! It was so dark in the booth it was an absolute roulette into what you were eating. The balance of the food we did eat was nice with the exception of the hefty scones, but all in all very disappointing for £45

This little gem is tucked away behind a little alley and up some stairs. Great decor, friendly staff, lovely drinks and delicious food. Well worth booking.

Extremely disappointed. Booked afternoon tea here for my partners birthday and it was terrible. The menu online was different to the afternoon tea served and apart from one waitress the service was awful. We arrived excited to celebrated my partners birthday with a great menu that was advertised online. The waitress serving us was friendly enough but didn’t make much effort to engage in conversation or recognise the booking notes I put about my partners birthday. The afternoon tea arrived and the food was not good. The bread felt stale and the food did not taste fresh at all. We ordered the vegetarian afternoon tea and had asked that it was definitely vegetarian as we had a chicken sandwich which was not advertised on the online menu. A man who I assume was the manager came over and very rudely told us it was “fake turkey”, our waitress then came over and showed us the quorn packet and reassured us it was vegetarian and asked if it was okay, a much better response than the rude manager before her. We then continued to eat our afternoon tea but honestly it was hard to eat, as mentioned the sandwiches were stale and so were the cakes. For the price I was deeply disappointed so much so that I asked for the bill very quickly even though most of the food was uneaten. We were given the bill and I paid without even being asked if we had enjoyed the food, if we wanted to take it away or if there was an issue. This was shocking, the bar was empty and therefore there was no excuse for poor customer service. I will never come back again and I am very disappointed that my partners birthday was ruined by this choice.

Beautiful variety of cocktails and some cheese boards to munch on. I had lychee spritz and it was amazing. We shared a vegetarian cheese board and spent good time here. Atmosphere is lovely and staff is polite and friendly.

A really pretty bar with unique and delicious cocktails, it’s a little on the pricier side but definitely worth it.

Easily the most well hidden gem of Nottingham. The decor is incredible, the food (they offer a cheese and crackers board) and drinks are simply exquisite and the staff are very much on point. You must visit

Really poor cocktails. They use concentrate juices and syrups rather than fresh fruit and sugar. Trainees aren't taught to taste before serving - probably don't even know what the drinks are meant to taste like. Disappointing:-(

I often go here and it's always good coffee and good service. However the last twice I've been the upstairs seating area has been really really hot so haven't felt as comfortable as usual. I assumed the first time there was a problem with the heating but it was like a Turkish Bath again this morning.

A hidden treasure! Tapas, burgers and pizzas on the main menu. On our table of four, three of us had tapas and the other a burger. Such great value for money! Generous portions and so tasty too! Great range of cocktails too. Definitely will return!
