The Larder on Goosegate in Nottingham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We had a really lovely post-lockdown meal here and it did not disappoint! The starters (lamb scrumpet and pea bruschetta) were a fantastic way to start the meal and our mains were delicious. The sea bass skin was perfectly crisp and the accompaniments went with it perfectly. Although the steak looked small it was more than enough and full of flavour. The house red wine was affordable and delicious. The staff were attentive and friendly and made it a really enjoyable evening.

Fui allí con mi esposa después de buenas críticas. No me decepcionó. La comida era deliciosa y perfectamente preparada. El servicio fue excelente y rápido, pero nunca se apresuró. Tienes la sensación de un lugar que se preocupa por lo que hace y que se nota.

Tres amigos y yo frecuentamos "The Larder" en Goosegate en Nottingham el viernes. Este es definitivamente un restaurante al que volvería a ir y es un restaurante ideal para donde desee cenar e impresionar a un cliente por negocios. Sirve comida británica y europea de alta calidad, con opciones originales para cada plato, lo que resultó en una experiencia gastronómica excepcional para cada uno de nosotros. El restaurante está en el primer piso y lejos del bullicio de las calles de la ciudad. El servicio fue profesional y eficiente junto con un ambiente relajado y sorprendentemente fácil para el oído, considerando todos los elementos que experimentas. Puede que sea de mi edad, pero fue maravilloso tener una comida con conversaciones de calidad donde podían escucharse sin tener que inclinarse o esforzarse para descifrar fragmentos de las historias de otros comensales. Muy bien cuidado y cuidado de principio a fin. Tuvimos la ventaja adicional de una de las mejores mesas al lado de la ventana, reservada por una encantadora dama que proporcionó cuidados excepcionales antes y después. Muy recomendable.

Una increíble comida y servicio de alta calidad en el centro de Nottingham en Goosegate. Gran ambiente y sorprendentemente tranquilo teniendo en cuenta todos los elementos que experimenta y desea tener cuando sale a comer con amigos, socios comerciales o clientes.

Mid-week after work before a 7:30pm show at The Royal Centre (10 minutes' walk away). I went mackerel starter and then monkfish main course, both of which were excellent; my wife (vegetarian) enjoyed her substantial bowl of Gnudi (a little bit like gnocchi) which she'd never encountered before. Neither of us could pass up the excellent-sounding chocolate dessert, which was delightfully rich. We left full but not stuffed so just right. Friendly and efficient service. Room a tiny bit cold, particularly sat by the massive windows - the radiators were not on. Sad to see we were the only people dining - they deserve to be much busier. Sensible prices for the high quality of the cooking.

No puedo creer que nunca haya encontrado este lugar. Muy buena comida, personal amable, ambiente relajado. Volveremos muy pronto.

After a good film we wanted a suitably decent meal. We hadn't booked, it was a Saturday night but The Larder squeezed us in. Superb starters pigeon breast / crispy egg with barley. My fish main of sand sole was also excellent, my partners veggie option was a bit bland and not quite up there. Still, a delicious meal with a good bottle of wine. Will certainly return and stick with the meat and fish options.

The chef at The Larder on Goosegate has a light hand converting rich, succulent dishes into delicate, but savory melt-in-your mouth delights.On a Tuesday night in early September, I wandered down Goosegate looking for the restaurant. Went up a couple of steps and saw a posted menu for August. Climbed the stairs. On the first landing there were two closed doors. I was beginning to think the restaurant had closed, but I opened one to find a pleasant, informal dining room with windows overlooking Goosegate.There was an a la carte menu and a set price menu with fewer choices. I opted for the latter: three courses for 19.95 UK. The first course was battered baby squid with a mayonnaise sauce. The squid were succulent, with a delightful spiced crisp light coating. No sauce was required. I told the waiter that the sauce was a detriment to the delicate dish; she agreed, but said customers had demanded a sauce.The main course was an exquisitely thoughtful combination of rich dishes contrasted with bitter roasted raddichio and a mild beetroot sauce that tasted good with everything. The Blythburgh pork belly was perfection: a crisp crust with unctuous meat and fat that melted in your mouth. The accompanying Dauphinoise potatoes were magically both luxuriously rich, yet light. The best plate I've eaten in years.For the dessert, the blackberry cheesecake was again surprisingly light, yet flavorful with its fresh blackberries on top. Heaven.Service was delightful. I got to chat with the waiter, as surprisingly there were few customers that night. The view out onto Goosegate was a diversion while savoring my meal.My only caveat about The Larder on Goosegate is its inaccessibility due to the required flight of stairs.

Nice enough room but very noisy and full of office groups. Service was nice and friendly but food very disappointing

Buscando donde ir en Nottingham encontré este bello lugar. Bien iluminado, magnífica decoración, ubicación céntrica, pero lo más importante es destacar la buena atención y el gran sabor de sus platos. Pedí un simple pescado con papás el cual estaba delicadamente preparado, bien presentado y de un sabor fantástico. Precios razonables.

Went for dinner in large pre-booked group of 16. Place looked a bit tired. It was a Friday night but we were the only people in apart from one other couple. Food was very average. Cured salmon starter was bland and my "flat iron" steak (not sure what cut that is) was very gristly and I had to leave a third of it . Very disappointed.

We've been to The Larder may times and it was our first choice to celebrate our daughter's graduation but for once it was a disappointment. Gone was the inventive menu with different and delicious combinations. Instead boring plates included the same old bartered squid which you find everywhere, no skill involved just straight from freezer to fryer. There was nothing exciting and having recomended it to everyone we were really disappointed. Please bring back the previous menu!

Rachel and her team truly delivered. The planning beforehand was handled effortlessly and the food was fantastic with very good service. The ‘graduation opening hours’ made a real difference too. The history of the building added to the great ambiance. Highly recommended. Even a glitch in the bill was managed quickly with no fuss. Thank you for making a special day even more memorable.

As a party of eight attending on the 19th July 2019, this was unanimously voted a superb experience. The consideration given by Rachel and all members of the larder team at the time of booking and during service was exemplary. The food on the day was superb, members of the party commented that unlike more high profile Nottingham restaurants which rely on pretention and high prices, this restaurant actually delivers on superb standard of food whilst accommodating value for money.

Encantador descubrimiento sorpresa - ubicación de arriba - joya escondida.

Vine aquí ayer para tomar un té de la tarde y hacer una celebración. Era un ambiente agradable y había otra despedida de soltera y el personal era amable y encantador. La selección de pasteles, bollos y sándwiches era agradable. Me sentí 16 extraño por persona era un poco caro, pero fue agradable. Ambiente agradable y tranquilo y vale la pena una visita. Precioso interior y decoración. La escalera era bastante empinada pero no estaba nada mal. Sin duda recomendaría visitar aquí y sin duda volveré para cenar una noche.

Una experiencia gastronómica de buena calidad acorde con la ubicación en un edificio icónico de Nottingham. Rachel, la gerente, es muy buena y su equipo fue eficiente sin ser dominantes. La comida era en su mayoría buena, pero mi plato de calamar era insípido y desagradable.

Fui con amigos para una comida posterior de cumpleaños. Le gustó el ambiente tranquilo donde realmente podría disfrutar de una conversación normal. La comida era deliciosa y el servicio atento. Me dieron un postre de cumpleaños (no ordenado) ya que uno de los empleados había recogido que había sido mi cumpleaños. Una encantadora sorpresa, gracias.

Rachel the manager runs a very friendly and efficient team. The food is excellently chosen, such as Suffolk salami with fennel sticks and watercress. The flat iron steak was just terrific with chunky chips and leaves. The set course menu is well worth a try, indeed we did nothing else. There is a nice local cider - yes, local they claim! There are nice seats overlooking the street from the first floor. It has quite lovely chandeliers and a nice atmosphere. The only problems are: very steep access stairs; slowness of the kitchen to produce the food.

Nos compraron un cupón y qué gran regalo resultó ser. Este es un excelente lugar para disfrutar de una excelente comida, bien presentada y servida por una excelente camarera. Mi esposa tiene una alergia al ajo que no fue un problema ya que todo está recién preparado y el personal fue servicial. Muy buen ambiente y esperamos volver y sin duda lo recomendaría. Gracias y buena suerte.

I had gone to the Larder on Valentine's Day and was shown to my table rather quickly. The service in helping pick out wines and recommendations from the friendly staff were very helpful indeed. The atmosphere of the place was calming and appropriate for having conversations. The food was decent but I would have expected it be slightly better for the price. All in all, it was a good visit, it's brilliant place for a special occasions.

Absolutely blown away by the quality of food here. I had the monkfish starter which just made me savour every mouthful. The lamb main had a beautiful fresh mint sauce that was perfect. The flavour combinations are simple but extremely well executed, making this a really top experience of our many evenings dining in Nottingham. This is one of the best restaurants we have visited and I implore you to come here to try the food. This is definitely going to become one of our regular date night hot spots and I cannot wait to try more of what they have to offer.

Went for my birthday with my partner. The restaurant is part of what was the first Boots store in Nottingham and very quirky. Was greeted with a very warm welcome by the waitress who was fantastic throughout. The menu is not extensive, but the food was superb, compliments to the Chef. Great place to go for an occasion or treat, great service and worth every penny.

We came this weekend for my partners birthday. We were seated overlooking the city. The waitress brought us over some freshly baked bread then for our starter I had mackerel and my partner had pork belly. All cooked to perfection. Mains we had beef cheek and monk fish with Ricotta gnocchi. The only thing I thought was a down side to my main was it was slightly over seasoned. For dessert I had panacotta with rhubarb and ginger ice cream. My partner had the chocolate torte. Both amazing! We had coffees and then settled the bill. It is pricey but you're expecting this and it was a special occasion. We shall be back it's beautiful.

The history of this place is great, being part of the first Boots shop and with an impressive interior.

My partner booked this as a surprise for Valentine’s Day via go dine. We turned at 6pm with our conformation text message. The lady simply said sorry we cancelled it. We had no phone call or email as she said. Ruined our evening! May I add the restaurant had no body in with no music on never the less we walked up the road to our favourite - bar Iberico and waited 15 mins for a table . Perfect there as always.

Booked through Go Dine to find out that there are tables at 6pm & 9pm. I agreed to 6pm and had a confirmed Txt and email. On arrival to a cold empty building smelling of disinfectant we was approached by a young girl telling us that our booking was cancelled due to a deposit which we should have been rang or emailed about!? We did not and left with no where to go although this place looked a ghost town and smelt rank so as I say “Everything happens for a reason!” OFF to bar Iberico where service and food is second to none! Cheers Larder

Went to The Larder for afternoon tea, which was brought for us as a gift. Having not been before it took us a while to find the place, which is located upstairs above the shops along Goosegate. A simple wooden door leads you into a bright and airy room, with large windows overlooking the street below - I can imagine it being pretty in the evening. The afternoon tea was very good with lovely homemade cakes and warm scones. Certainly an interesting place and it may well be worth checking it out for an evening meal.

The Larder is an excellent restaurant in the centre of Notttingham.

We were a pretty large party but all was problem free. Food was fantastic. Delicious pulled lamb croquettes, which were surprisingly filling. Main course was traditional chicken but attention to detail was superb. House wine was lovely. And a tdf pudding! Was pleasantly surprised a bar tab I'd been building turned out to be very reasonable. I've been a couple of times before, but not for a while, but will be back soon. Thanks.

La comida estuvo bien, pero no volveremos corriendo. Decepcionante menú de postres que era sólo el menú de Navidad. Como estábamos a la carta, pensamos que habría más según el sitio web, por lo que no teníamos una. El servicio era bueno, pero hay algo que falta como una cálida bienvenida, etc.

Went here for our works Xmas lunch and even though we ordered from the supplied menu a week in advance, three of the dishes weren't actually available! Food was also pretty average considering the price.

First time visiting last week and had an excellent meal. The duck main course in particular was absolutely delicious. A real hidden gem in Nottingham and one of the best restaurants in the city. Can't wait to go back!

Visité este restaurante en la calle 21 de mi hijo ya que está en la universidad de Nottingham. Reserva muy suave por teléfono, reservamos una mesa para el mediodía. Llegamos justo antes de tiempo y, de hecho, justo cuando abrían, una cálida bienvenida de una de las camareras que tomaron nuestros abrigos. El restaurante está en el primer piso de lo que fue la primera sucursal de Boots the Chemist y conserva el carácter del edificio, incluido un antiguo letrero de la tienda. Bonitos ventanales a la calle que traen mucha luz.

OK.Menu not as Web page for November not the steaks we wanted to try. Ran out of a couple of items.Nice atmosphere and spacious.

From the moment we walked in the place had a special feel about it. We had walked through the town full of Saturday night stag and hen do's which are continuously drawn to Nottingham. Rain was in the air but had so far held off. The Larder isn't really a place you would stumble across as it occupies the first floor of the 'old Boots building' above Pizza express, which is a tip in itself for finding it as most of the Saturday revellers would probably settle for a Pizza before or after their pubbing and clubbing... You climb a few steps to reach the restaurant and immediately leave behind all the hustle and bustle from the streets outside. The décor befits the building and the shabbiness of the wood panelling and architecture works very well indeed to promote the laid back atmosphere. We visited on the 8th September 2018 and the staff on duty were very welcoming and professional. I wouldn't say the food was out of the ordinary but it was very good, in particular the side dishes. The prices were reasonable and I do take the point that has been mentioned by others the white wine could have been better chilled. None the less we that's Kate a vegetarian and I a meat eater would really recommend this very different place from I would guess the norm of Nottingham for a very satisfying evening out...

The food is perfectly fine but nothing special - we visited on a Saturday evening and it wasn’t full.

We were very excited to visit the larder so brought my partners mother for her birthday. The staff were very friendly and we had a nice table by the window. Ordered main, I had the ox tongue, my partner had steak and mother in law the cod. All very average and lacked any flavours. Decided against pudding and went in search of somewhere else. Choice of wine was good though.

Ate here again this time with friends. All impressed by short but interesting menu. Main courses only this time. Steaks are a speciality and were once again outstanding in flavour and succulence. Flat Iron sold out so had Picanha and Hanger steaks. Wish we lived closer! Our fishy friends enjoyed the Sea Bass.

The Larder on Goosegate is outstanding. Tucked away unstairs in an historic building, this restaurant is a gem that is well worth seeking out.

我就是超爱这家餐厅，环境超好，菜很好吃，主要是食材都特别新鲜，尤其是做的蔬菜，真的很好吃。甜点其实还可以有进步的空间，不过确实已经是很好吃了，甜而不腻，有时候酸酸的，主要是我喜欢吃酸的，吃完肉啊什么的吃点酸的甜点刚好。这家的酒也真的是很好喝，都是很用心地选择。真的超喜欢。

Went there for a celebratory dinner. Service first rate, food excellent, great options for lactose & gluten free. Ambiance wonderful, what an experience, thank you.

First visit here, after a lot of recommendations, for a birthday meal. On first impressions, a lovely room, light and airy, menus printed attractively on quality paper. Next positive was that the beer prices – despite only bottled being available – were very reasonable and all from local breweries.

We visited on Saturday evening as a party of 6. We all had an amazing meal and the service was fantastic, special shout out to Rachel who was friendly, welcoming & attention to details was exquisite.

Delicious food, friendly staff an absolute must try. I had the lunch menu excellent quality I’ll definitely be back

Pleasant atmosphere, helpful staff. The starters were very good. For mains the lamb with smoked aubergine and chick peas was excellent but I found my steak looked delicious but was difficult to eat and chewy. However the puddings, except the strawberry one were a disappointment.

Very good place. First time I've come here I ordered duck breast, wow. Amazing. Unfortunately (but also luckily) menu changes very frequently allowing customers having always a wide choice

The larder is located in the first Boot's shop and serves inventive quality food. I visited with my family and we all enjoyed the meal, especially the Cornish plaice and the sticky apple cake. There is also a comprehensive wine list - cost £45 per head for three courses and a bottle of wine for the table.

Very accommodating - fitted us in at short notice, superb starters - warm Gurnard and Mackerel. Had a fantastic rare steak (they do Blue too), with a great Stilton sauce. Sea Bass was good too - crispy skin. The cabbage cooked in ginger & chilli was a good accompaniment. Chips were Jenga shaped and tasty. Had lemon cheesecake with coconut sorbet for pud, a great ending to a lovely meal.

Visit the Larder restaurant last night and wow, what a meal. Started with the mackerel which was excellent, the ate the pichanac steak which was fantastic and one of the best steak I have ever tasted. Service was excellent and efficient.

Set in a beautiful building that used to be owned by Jesse Boot (Boots department store) with many original features.

This well established Restaurant has a homely feel, with the emphasis on cleanly cooked good quality meat, fish and vegetables. Staff are friendly and attentive, giving menu advice if required.

I had wanted to visit the Larder for a long while and had not got around to it until recently and was pleased to discover that it was worth the wait. The service was friendly and attentive, although admittedly when we visited (mid-week in dreary January) it was very quiet. The food and wine also were excellent and not unreasonably priced. So overall, a very pleasant experience and one I expect to repeat.

We visited for a birthday meal Tuesday 24th Januay with 6 in our party. We had pre dinner drinks n the lounge area. Out of the list of gins only two were available and were served with light Tonic. When questioned we were told that they only serve full Tonic in late bottles and would have to take the drink away to add it.

Beautiful and elegant decorated. Excellent food and presentation. Starters were slightly on a small portion. The ribeye was cooked to perfection. Loved the chips excellent and crunchy. The beef cheeks were so tender you wouldn't need a knife.

Recently returned to the Larder after a couple of years, It was even better than we remembered. Right in the middle of Christmas week with parties of 10 or more, when you might just expect a few problems with service it was as good as ever. The food seemed a notch up on last time we were here and the pleasant staff made for a great evening

24 hours before we sat down for a terrific lunch at The Larder on Goosegate I was getting concerned that on what was to be the busiest Sunday pre-Christmas, I would not be able to find a central Nottingham restaurant of any quality for our family reunion group which had grown to ten strong.

The food was just superb. The menu itself was a dream to choose from, with so many different even unusual creations. Although the starter portions were quite small, they were exquisite both to the eye and the taste. My companion is a celiac and the waitress took her through the menu without need to refer to the kitchen. Thus revealing a well organised considered operation.The service was efficient and authoritative.

Wir hatten die Weihnachtsfeier für unsere Abteilung in The Larder und waren sehr zufrieden. Das Essen war toll, kam in einem sehr sinnvollen Rhythmus (die Gänge nicht zu zügig und auch nicht zu langsam professionell serviert)

Up the stairs & through Jesse Boot's (Boots the Chemist) front door, located on the first floor with spectacular floor to ceiling windows framed with carved wood barleysugar twists is a cosy restaurant serving amazing food which changes every month. There are plenty of taste choices, our main course selection of the pork & duck were brilliant. We chose the cheese board but which cheese was which was not pointed out, resulting in a guessing game. We took our own wine; charge half price on Thursdays. The staff were friendly & helpful, the room temperature comfortable.

Ristorante molto grazioso situato al primo piano con vista su strada. Atmosfera elegante e romantico. Piatti ben curati e ben serviti. Personale cordiale e qualificata. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo rispetto. Assolutamente consigliato per cene romantiche.

Eight of us (all adults) met for special meal to celebrate 4 birthdays and a wedding

This was my third visit here, this time in a party of seven to celebrate a special occasion for me. You expect fine dining and that's what you get. Everybody was delighted with their courses, the wine list was extensive and the prices were fair. The venue is, of course, the original Boots shop and is now decorated charmingly for its current purposes, including the use of feature chandeliers giving an extra sense of magic and grandeur to your experience. The staff were universally friendly and helpful. So anything other than a very solid five stars would be unfair and we'll definitely be back. I do have a some minor quibbles though. I booked the table eight weeks before on line and with plenty of notice requested that our table was one of those alongside the feature window that runs the length of the room. Even nearer the time I was given to understand that that was possible. But on the night, when we arrived, it had clearly not been provided and they hadn't forgotten because, on being greeted, that was the first thing the staff mentioned. Frankly, with that much notice I can't see how that should have happened. Secondly there was, comparatively, just about enough choice for vegetarians. Incidentally, the whole restaurant is on the first floor, which (as far as I could see) you could only enter and leave by using two flights of very steep stairs. You also need to watch for the not unusual practice of adding 10% service charge automatically and then leaving a space for a further gratuity. Having said all that, though, based on the food and the overall experience on the night, a really good evening and we'll be back.

Nicely tucked up above the street level. It is not pretentious, the staff are cool, the food simply excellent.

went here with my wife the other day and was a little disappointed. For starters I had the lamb Scrumpet which lacked flavour and seemed a little overcooked, with the garnish (which was presumably supposed to be tartare or mint sauce) just tasting like a good quality mayonnaise with thin slices of ginger over the top (which were actually really nice and did bring the plate back a little). For the main I went for the Hanger steak cooked rare to medium rare. For some reason the chef saw it appropriate to serve the steak cut up into bite-size pieces. I understand that the chef did this to make sure it was cut correctly against the grain before I ate it, however, I would have preferred to do it myself as to not lose flavour to whatever he/she cut it on. The chips were just pub style chips. The lettuce dressing was delicious, however.My wife had the the beetroot and goatscheese to start which she really enjoyed, and was presented beautifully. for mains she had the seabass with white beans and chorizo. The seabass was cooked perfectly and she said the meal was really good, but didn't blow her away.The wine we ordered was fantastic and the waitress was great which is always important.Overall we had a lovely evening but were a little disappointed with the meal (mainly mine) as we've been wanting to come here for a long time now. I think I just had higher expectations for a Micheline recommended restaurant,

My friend and I visited yesterday evening. We were met by a very courteous waitress, who was happy to recommend drinks and talk us through the menu. We had a lovely table by the window, it wasn't busy at 6:30 but as the evening went on we were joined by other couples enjoying their evening out. This is such a lovely room with nice lighting and a hint of its history. The fixed price menu was well worth what we paid. Each course was presented in a very pleasing way. Each course was so very tasty. We really enjoyed our evening and would definitely recommend it. Thank you.

Myself and my wife visited this evening with high expectations which were met, to a degree.Starters were fantastic, autumn squash and goats cheese was a real hit with my wife and the cod brandade was great, served with buck wheat crackers and various pickles, my wife’s main of rare hanger streak was also very well cooked, however my main of pigs cheeks was massively let down by the accompanying sauce which was a VERY over reduced red wine sauce, which left a bitter/sticky taste in my mouth for the rest of the evening! I professionally understand the process of the reduction of stocks to create jus, however this sauce had gone past the point of no return! Whilst the rest of the food was good the chef must realise that these school boy errors must be ironed out to help provide a perfect dining experience for the guests.

I had lunch here with a group of ladies. It wasn't busy, but there were some other people there. The food was lovely. We ate from the set menu which was reasonably priced although not extensive. The venison and haggis croquettes were delicious and the sea bass nicely cooked and tasty. My companions all praised their choices highly. However, the service was pretty poor. A side order of chips never materialised despite being asked for twice and one of the drinks we ordered only came after the second time of asking. The staff didn't stay in the room, they kept disappearing into what I assumed was the kitchen which made it very difficult to attract anyone's attention. Our meal took two and a half hours which was far too long for lunch. Fortunately, we weren't in a hurry so it didn't really matter, but they weren't to know that. I will go back because the food was good, but it will be with a smaller party next time.

Hart's is our normal choice but it was fully-booked so we decided to try out The Larder on Goosegate, based on the Michelin guide recommendation. The restaurant itself is very nice, with plenty of space between tables and a relaxed ambiance. The pre-dinner bread and butter was excellent, but we were only provided with one piece per person, and weren't offered any more when this was finished, which is unusual for this kind of restaurant.For starters we had ham hock terrine, which was also excellent but let down but the accompanying corn relish, which wasn't zingy enough for the ham and there wasn't enough of it. I've since seen some online pictures of the starter with mustard provided in addition to the relish, and this would have completed the dish well.For mains we had steaks, which were flavoursome and perfectly cooked, and the pepper and brandy sauce was one of the best I've had. However, the fries were a big disappointment, being too large and almost completely lacking in flavour. I'd normally expect the kitchen in restaurant such as this to salt the fries, but this wasn't done, and the simple granulated salt provided on the tables isn't really suitable for anything. Smaller, most crispy fries, properly seasoned by the kitchen, would have resulted in a perfect steak main course. We finished off with a cheesboard, which could have done with some butter to offset the dryness of the biscuits that were provided, and some muscat, which was excellent.Service throughout could have been better. Plates were not cleared quickly between courses, and we had to ask a number of times for things that the server could easily have anticipated.Overall, the food was good, but with some simple refinements in the kitchen and in the restaurant the experience could have been much better. I'd considering going back again if some improvements were made.

It's a lovely room in a historic building. The service is great. There is a really good selection of drinks. The menu always looks interesting, but I've been several times now and I feel a bit unsatisfied with the food - good ingredients, well cooked, but I don't think it's quite as good as World Service or Hart's.

Was welcomed with a smile,service was good and swift there was a good selection of drinks .The menu offered a variety of foods for everyone and the atmosphere was pleasant

Wine - Chablis premier Cru with , waitress description, shitloads of ice. Delicious.StartersSquid and mackerel - enjoyable and worth a repeat, just not tonightThree balls - ( described as bonbons) venison and black pudding and x mix with leaves and a chilli dressing. Honestly, very good.Main courseSteak pichana. This is my favourite cut. However, a bit chewy on the underside, not evenly cooked.Cod with celeriac, apple and mussels intelligently cooked, not over or under, perfect.Well done on the dessert.Will always return as perfection is subjective, often.

Visited here with friends for my birthday. The food was delicious and I would really really recommend the lamb rump which was tender and very tasty. The chocolate cheesecake pudding was also delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Wine was delicious. The building has a blue plaque as it was the site of the very first Boots Chemist shop - lots of original features on show in the restaurant too. A little pricey - our bill for 3 people came to £140 but that was for almost 3 courses, a bottle of wine and 3 pre dinner drinks so. I would recommend to anyone planning a night in the amazing lace quarter and looking for a really nice meal in a smart (but not scarily smart) place.

Vegetarian meal was just edible. Watch out for the added on service charge! Service was good, but then one would expect it at these prices.

With our eldest daughter graduating from the University of Nottingham on 21st July, I had wanted to book somewhere special for a late lunch to accommodate a family group of six people after the graduation ceremony. Having seen the restaurant recommended in the Michelin Guide, I decided to book and was so glad I did so, such was the positivity of the whole experience. Early email communication was swift and friendly and gave me confidence that things would be good ahead of the visit.The restaurant itself is unique - we all loved its airiness and lightness and were appreciative of being placed on a table by the window. We had ordered a delicious Rose champagne in advance to be served as we arrived and this was handled extremely well by one of our very professional and efficient waitresses - she was also very accommodating with taking the compulsory group photo! The food was absolutely glorious with something on the menu for everyone - not always an easy ask when you have a mixed age group present. My eldest daughter and I both had the hangar steak which we agreed was one of the best steaks we'd ever eaten and the triple cooked chips dipped in the brandy and peppercorn sauce were sublime - in fact, I'm salivating writing this review. Our friend's sea trout was also another stand out dish - but it was all so lovely and we had a great 'bin end' Spanish white to accompany meal - most unusual grape combination but it worked brilliantly with all our choices. Thank you very much to the team at The Larder for playing a key part in helping to make our day both special and memorable. We will be back next year for our youngest daughter's graduation day, hopefully!

A group of us visited for afternoon tea a short while ago and enjoyed ourselves. The sandwiches and cakes were all very good and tasty and the choice of Teas was excellent too. My ONLY comment would be that as a group we would have enjoyed a few more sandwiches and a few less cakes! Maybe middle age spread had something to do with it?

This restaurant which is at first floor level above Goosegate, is the perfect place to relax and eat above the busy street level. The whole atmosphere is relaxed, the food is delicious and the service unobtrusively efficient, It is well worth seeking out.

My wife and I eat out regularly. Whilst sitting at our table the waitress referred to us as "walk in's" I asked for a table next to the window but was told they were reserved for high tea's despite being empty. Starters were fine, Mains, loin of pork 2" thick grisly, needed a chain saw to cut. Apple sauce floating in the gravy. Mustard mash, minus the mustard, the mash indescribable. So not to make a fuss in front of customers for high tea, I let the staff know it was the worst meal I'd had in my life. I got my wife's coat and was told "you must have picked a bad day" no apology offered nothing..

Excellent meal and very good value for money. The fixed menu was a steal in my opinion with a great selection of dishes. The waitress was knowledgeable about the produce and wine list and made some great suggestions. Will definitely visit again.

The Larder has to be one of my favourite places to eat in Nottingham. Independent and not part of a chain it is as a restaurant should be. Welcoming, not too big that it feels overwhelming and rhe staff are lovely.The service is efficient, professional and friendly . The food never ceases to amaze, the scallops were heaven and the lamb cooked to perfection. It would always be my go to place to eat, be it a special occasion or a cosy meal with friends it never disappoints. Well worth a visit....you will not be disappointed.

Been here several times but love that it is a monthly menu, so never get bored. Last night met our expectations again. Highly recommend the Asparagus, Quails Eggs and garlic Miso starter

We visited The Larder recently with friends and we thoroughly enjoyed what we had and the wine list was great.The service was very good and the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere,We all had three courses which was just delicious,

Had a meal on Saturday night for hubby's birthday on recommendation by a friend. The ambience and setting are wonderful, cannot find fault in any way. We ordered starters and steak. The starters were both good however the steak at £20 a pop each were not the best. Both tasted as they were cooked on a griddle that had not been cleaned. Although cooked correctly extremely charred on the outside. We both work in the food industry so are aware of the importance of keeping the griddle cleaned. Hubby was given a small desert with a candle, not ordered or paid for which was very thoughtful and a really nice touch. Just a shame our main meal was under rated. I realise from all of the reviews on here we are in the minority, for a special occasion we did however expect more. Such a shame....

This is my first time eating here. It is easy to miss walking through Hockley but is worth a visit.Our food was attractively presented and tasted as good as it looked!The staff were efficient and unassuming.We were there for an evening meal, which I thought was a little overpriced but otherwise I enjoyed going here.

Our afternoon tea for 4 was at 2.45 and we had been told they needed the table at 4.30. The venue is old and interesting. The ordinal Boots(chemist) dispensary. The tea was tasty with a good selection of sandwiches, cakes and delicious scones. The waitress was pleasant but bust settingNo up for a party. We were the only customers there at this time so not much of an atmosphere but nevertheless we enjoyed ourselves and would like to have lunch or dinner there.

We came to the Larder for a Friday lunch and we're somewhat surprised to fine we were the only people booked in. After three courses of their prix fixé lunch menu, I was even more surprised that half of Nottingham wasn't queuing to get in. The meal was excellent value for money and the chocolate desert was perfectly balanced between taste and texture.We will return anytime we're in Nottingham.

Was very looking forward to it for Valentines, especially with its Micheline rated reputation. Set meal was ~ £40 pp, even though on a normal day the courses would have been less than that so we expected more on that night. Firstly, we rang earlier that day to confirm the time of booking, they were unable to confirm the time then and there as they werent sure which table we had (?) even though we provided the name and roughly what time we thought it was at.. Secondly, we also requested for a window table when paying for £10 pp deposit in advanced during Janaury, but were seated in a secluded corner when arrived. The waitress however moved us to a window table after a second request. Food was average, however presentation on my main was all over the time. Clearly the sauce was spilled out of place and was presented nonetheless. No one came to ask whether if food or everything was okay.. Not even water from the jug was poured out for us considering its reputation.Speed of food however was fast and main course was lovely. Overall, quite disappointed with the whole meal experience as we expected a lot more from the price and its reputation, and considering it was a special occasion.

First time and was not disappointed. The food was excellent. Relaxed atmosphere and lovely attentive staff. A perfect evening. Plenty to choose from for a Coeliac.

Really can't complain in any way. Service was fantastic, food was truly wonderful. The atmosphere is fantastic!Its a hidden gem!Highly recommend, best restaurant in Nottingham

Lovely Valentine's Day supper. Love the food and the atmosphere. Very nice lighting too and great service....polite and unobtrusive.

Went with a friend to celebrate her birthday Saturday lunchtime. We were the first to be seated at 1pm and it was a little cold but the waitress assured us the heating was coming on - it did take a while to warm up but it is an old building so that's not really the staffs fault Tea was served in a large pot which was refreshed while we eat. Afternoon tea was a three tier stand with long rectangles of white breaded sandwiches without crusts (I believe they included cheese and pickle, egg mayo, duck and ham terrine and a cheese I think), salted caramel tart, orange sponge, ginger cookie and choc brownie plus two mini scones each with cream and jam The sweets (except the tart)were small eg size of 50p piece with the cookie n tarts about the size of a fist but very rich and tasty It's a pretty venue and the toilets were very refined with lovely scented candles and hand towels Worth a visit and we enjoyed a good chat for several hours there - I've had nicer bigger cakes though but it is good value considering the history

Carefully chosen for a special family meal for a graduation, surprising location with historical twist. Nice place, nice atmosphere, super menu and food. Very impressed with everything but such a long wait....before meal....between courses.....stressful when on a schedule! Annoying actually since we preordered our food for the special occasion.

I wanted to take my girlfriend for a romantic anniversary dinner which matched my love for her and found that Larder seamlessly combines sophisticated food with a relaxed atmosphere. My pork scrumpet came out with a tangy chilli pineapple punch and soft boiled quails eggs. My partner chose the Salmon which as I remembered it was a tasty, clean and simple plate of food as one could eat. For main I chose the rump of lamb that was served with kale and broccoli and potato crisp. It came medium rare and worthy of the restaurants one star status. My partner chose the hanker steak and was left marvelling the unique cut of meat alongside the amazing brandy sauce. Complemented with a Tuscan red the main courses really set the meal alight. A big fan of apple pie my dearest was in food heaven and really enjoying her first Michelin star experience. I opted for the Christmas Panna Cotta that managed to condense a number of Christmas flavours into a small pot. Starved of Michelin restaurants in Sheffield Larder is a real treat for us and a great way to spend our first anniversary together - if the Champagne is free maybe we shall return for another 3 courses of food heaven.

Close to our hotel & a special family treat brought us to this Boots the Chemist based restaurant. Very nice too !

Christmas dinner with a party of friends on a Friday night proved a great success - some of the party had not been before and were very impressed.A warm welcome on a busy night and soon made at ease with our pre-orders on the place cards, very efficient.Food was well presented and tasty, portion size good. Our wine choice proved successful.Staff were efficient and friendly meeting our needs,on a busy night.The location and decor especially the chandeliers make it a truly magical atmosphere,well suited to Christmas.All of us promised to return.Happy New Year to all of the team

Not been to the Larder for a few years, but always remembered it was a great place to eat. Group of 6. Christmas night out with friends. Busy restaurant but service was quick - although some of the staff were a little abrupt. Food was a little mixed in quality. Quails eggs with Pork scrimped were hard boiled, but otherwise the starters were nice. Main courses were generally tasty - steaks were lovely. Potatoes were underdone, parsnips underdone and horseradish with blade of beef was too mild - could not taste at all. Desserts - again, very nice. Two of ordered a cheese board to share. Biggest disappointment! Small board with 4 oatcakes , no butter and 6 tiny slices of rather tired looking cheese. So, all in all nice food, decent wine, lovely decor .... but overpriced. Maybe we just happened to catch them on a bad night.

Fantastic food, excellent steak, attention to detail was second to none. True 'old school' hospitality, (coat taken, umbrella stored in umbrella stand, water provided on the table), it was mentioned on booking two months previously that it was a birthday meal and I was presented with a desert complete with candle and chocolate-piped birthday message without charge or prompting. Thoroughly enjoyable evening. Thank you.

It is some time since I went here and clearly that has been my loss. Despite it being Saturday night with a large party present, the service was timely and friendly. Indeed we easily made our next engagement (concert) despite the complexity and careful/elegant presentation of the dishes, which were nicely judged as to portion size. The fried cod (no batter in sight) starter was a wonderful example - not overwhelming but very satisfying and beautifully presented. The blade of beef was similarly well-thought out; again it was nicely presented and beautifully cooked, as was the sea bass. Even the not-too-large room is elegant and tasteful. My mistake - will go back sooner rather than later.

Had a Christmas dinner with work here last night. There were about 40 of us, and although the restaurant was full and also another big party were on the table behind us, the food and service were excellent.Every choice looked lovely...my meat was to die for. The staff were very friendly and helpful even though they must have been rushed off their feet. I will definitely go back again, and highly recommend.

A Disappointing roast Sunday lunch could not be rescued by a reasonable red wine. The beef was dry, veg lacking in taste, a very solid yoorkshire pudding and gravy so thin you could see through it.
