The Malt Cross in Nottingham

An excellent Sunday lunch, well cooked and decent portions too. Wide range of drinks, especially craft and real ale. Nice chilled atmosphere as well and of course a fantastic building. Booking strongly recommended. Dog friendly too.

I would like to know if there is a lift and if so where it is.

Great quirky old building and good beer

Very tasty Sunday lunch, good potion size. Order at the bar so no table service, but friendly staff. Very nice building and decor.

A Sunday roast like you were at home. The best roast in town. Lovely staff and great beers. Brilliant way to spend an autumn afternoon.

Brilliant and peaceful place to have morning coffee. Ww came back for a good lunch

Nice place to visit Old scenic and heritage place Calm environment Less crowded

Old school pub with excellent staff.

Great atmosphere and food to match, with historical architecture and a stunning glass roof.

Great place to meet and enjoy a drink and bite to eat. Some unique beers on offer which made the evening all the more interesting!

A great little find this place is, great genuine relaxed atmosphere and good beer choice. Went on a Sunday and only Roast Dinners available- having said that my Roast Beef was very nice. Have returned on a Saturday evening and the food menu is simple but the food is delicious, loved the pitted olives as a side dish. Worth seeking out. M

Haven’t been to the Malt Cross for a while, but have some great nights there over the years. Popped in for a beer and a glass of wine for the wife, I know I should have asked or looked at the price of a large glass of Sauvignon Blanc but had a shock at the price of £12.90! No problem with the beer prices as they were on a par with town prices, but the wine was on the par of restaurant prices

New chef did very well with our Sunday lunches, staff provided lots of extra gravy , drinks choice very good as ever, characterful place with gallery.

Lovely Sunday Lunch, friendy staff Sold out of Beetroot Wellington but the courgette Tarte-Tatin was a tasty standin

Went to the malt cross with my husband daughter and partner .we are from Sheffield my daughter lives in Nottingham and is a regular .firstly I am a large lady in a wheelchair .the security guard helped us get through the doors to get in.accessibilty was good.i asked for the disabled loo which was thru the staff doors which again we were helped by two lovely staff holding doors open leading the way etc.next we ordered drinks and cake which were served with a friendly smile and chat by the waitress .nothing was too much trouble .the atmosphere was lovely and relaxed and the place is stunning .again as we left the security man came to us straight away to move furniture and open doors to make exit easier.i highly recommend the malt cross .I felt comfortable and looked after .

Foods always great with no complaints on taste, quality or presentation. The atmosphere is unbeatable, it’s so calm and inviting in the day perfect for ‘working from home’ or revision sessions, and chirpy and joyful in the evenings whilst being less rowdy than other nearby pubs Service is always with a smile and staff are more than happy to help whenever I’ve needed it!

One of my favourite places in Nottingham - must be at least 50yards from Market Square & much nicer than most of the alternatives in the area. Food not served every day since lookdown but usually some tempting cake!

Can't comment on the food as I didn't eat here. Lively atmosphere.

Attended a baby shower.Lovely food- fantastic selection and lovey place to be.Recommended for atmosphere , service and food.

Nice pub and the quiz on a Monday night is fantastic, probably best pub quiz I've been to in Notts, but it is so so expensive. Hard to complain since it's a nonprofit but 6.90 for a wheat beer is insane (although the bartender did tell/warn me about the price so that's fair). Gotta stick to the real ales for sub 5 pound pints

Proper pub with history that serves the community.

We arrived around 6pm on a Saturday and upstairs was still very quiet- which we were happy about. As it got busier it still wasn’t too loud upstairs (compared to Wetherspoons over the road) When our food came we were overwhelmingly impressed. Such good quality for the price of it (£11 burger WITH fries and a salad) at today’s prices of things we do not have a single complaint. By the looks of things they have plenty of entertainment throughout the week too- will definitely be back when somethings on and to show friends this awesome place😁

Absolutely lovely. Food portions are very decent and are great quality- value for money 10/10. There are plenty of alcohol free options available. For the Gin of the week with elderflower tonic and 330ml bottle of low alcohol beer came to £11.30. Two burgers with fries and salad £22 (£11 each). Highly recommended! Booths along with comfortable chairs too. Charity run, with live entertainment too. While Wetherspoons was packed, this place was still mellow. Lovely bar staff, friendly,

A very nice bar to vist. Good choice of craft beers and ciders. So we'll set out, with lots of room up starirs, to sit and relax. Recommended for all.

Beautiful building with character, good selection of Ale and good food. What's not to like!

My friend and I stopped in and had a beer and a cider together. We enjoyed a short conversation tasted a few and made our choice. We did not try any food items. It was a quiet Thursday evening, we sat upstairs and enjoyed the setting.

Excellent quiz and atmosphere. Very inclusive environment. Staff are always lovely. A special shout out to Terri who has gone out of her way to help me by providing lighter weight glasses and bringing things to the table as I am disabled and have limited strength/mobility in my arms. Really appreciate the extra thought and care - top quality customer service!

The place is beautiful, the staff are so polite and helpful and the food is amazing and reasonably priced for what you get, would definitely recommend coming here. We will be returning.

Fabulous old building with lots of interesting architectural features. A good range of Real Ales too.

Excellent quiz on Monday with lots of personality, good ranges of food and drinks at reasonable prices, comfortable seating all in a historically and architecturally interesting building.

Lovely looking victorian dance hall

Full of atmosphere, DJ in residence and a good selection of beers all set in an old theatre/play house. Seating upstairs which is a margin quieter.

Amazing space and dog friendly too! Had a lovely lunch and would highly recommend.

A very nice canal themed pub, loads going on, great staff, good food, nice ales

Malt Cross is one of the few remaining Victorian music halls remaining in the UK.  It is run as a non profit pub by the Potters House Trust and it is where Nottingham's Street pastors are based. Atmosphere is fantastic.  Have lots of Belgian beers available.  Music was great - the DJ was superb.  Loved this place.

Been here couple of times so it’s time to leave my review. Very nice and cosy place to have drinks or enjoy food. I love to sit top floor and enjoy view of hall down there where people enjoying. Cool staff and good service. This time they had security at door which was good. They’re serving mix drinks in keg and cask. Good to be here.

The Malt Cross is an attractive and interesting old pub with a very good atmosphere. They have a decent range of real ales and when our chosen beer didn’t clear, it was changed without any fuss. This s a really good pub.

Lovely pub in a cool old building. £4.90 for a pint of Grolsch makes it even better.

Called in and had The Blt and Beef sandwhiches which were top notch and always a great at atmosphere.

Ho amato lo stile e l’arredamento di questo pub! Abbiamo preso un Sunday roast davvero buono e anche la loro selezione di birre è degna di nota! Tappa obbligatoria se visitate Nottingham

Lovely old building and good selection of drinks.

Beautiful architecture and a very relaxed vibe teamed with the great selection of drinks makes this place a must visit in my eyes.

Beautiful building, nice staff, sometimes has live music on. One of my fav drinking holes in Nottingham

An unexpected treat. Food and atmosphere with live band on the balcony was fantastic

Fantastic spot for something to eat in the centre of Nottingham. Great atmosphere, beautifully refurbished old dance hall, with a great selection of food and drink. Haven't yet managed to get to one of the evening events, but definitely on the list! They look fantastic!

Absolutely gorgeous, nice staff and good selection on tap

I called on for a drink on a Saturday with some friends, a lovely old building with loads of character. Lively but not busy, straight to the bar and served as soon as we were there. Well worth a visit, I'll pop in again 😀

Visited as part of a group with our babies for a hot drink. Staff were incredibly welcoming and even rearranged the furniture so that we could park our prams inside. We had a wonderful time!

Amazing draft selection paired with great service in a stunning venue. What more could you want for a respite from shopping 😍

Fab old haunt of ours. Musical gems and a quaint upstairs to while away the hours with a brew or a beer. Bring back the great Sunday lunch and vegan cake hawls.

A great find in Nottingham. Great ambience, great beer but equally great looking cakes, along with cofees and teas for those so inclined. It's worth a diversion.

Absolutely shocking service. Waited 50 minutes for food and despite a reminder got no apology for it. Now I know why it's opens and shuts like the hokey cokey

Only went for a pint...and a great one it was!

Lovely, interesting place (ex music hall) just off the main city square, which we've enjoyed several times in the past. The beer was excellent, and the mulled wine was amazing, I'm told. Menu was a little limited, but OK, but within a few minutes of ordering, we were told that the delivery that had just arrived had none of the meat ingredients on it. This knocked out many of the menu options. The staff were great and dealt with it as best they could, but I hope this isn't a regular thing. I'd certainly give them another try, though, just in case.

Lovely old music hall and pub. Reasonable beer selection and great atmosphere.

Would have given 5 stars, but ladies toilets are upstairs! Men's is downstairs???

It's lovely to pop in and find a very relaxing environment. Plus the beer is good

Usually I love this bar and it would be 5stars. But last time I went I was disappointed by the beer selection. On the taps there were 3 different fruity beer flavours and no IPA, for me that's not great and usually they have more choices. 😞 Although I will always come back here as the bar is beautiful and it's a great location. Always worth a visit.

Love this place for a quiet drink with just one friend or a night out with many. Fabulous building and friendly staff.

Chilled place, amazing building but the music doesn’t match the atmosphere??? It’s a place to relax and enjoy good company but the music was the opposite ?? Bot sure u d rush back but maybe I’m getting old (only 46)

Been here a few times for various reasons but this time for SOFAR gig. Comfortable, chill and a great little hideaway.

Amazing place to check out if in Nottingham! Old school dance hall...good beers...amazing architecture!

Great beers and good prices! So cosy and cute

The Malt Cross has been a staple since moving to Nottingham 12 years ago. Love bringing friends and family here for their first time. Stunning venue but also super relaxed. Plenty of activities running throughout the week, have taken part in many quizzes over the years. Good beer selection and currently offering a loyalty card which is great value. Had the Sunday roast recently, generous portions, beautifully presented and very tasty. Good communication with booking a table also. A must visit for both locals and tourists.

Looks untouched with original furnishings worth looking it up for it's history

One of the prettiest buildings in Nottingham

Great pub, just off the square, a must visit if in the city centre

Really good atmosphere and interesting venue! They weren't serving food when we arrived for lunch though so we headed out soon after

We went to see a music presentation about the Moog synthesiser, however we left after an hour as the music was too loud and distorted ( although the quieter pieces were enjoyable) The bar was not to our taste.

Nice place to go to meet your friends for a drink but after a while we couldn't really hear what each of us we're saying but would definitely go again

Love this traditional pub, great atmosphere and choice of beers 🍻

Fantastic building and foods ok. Hit and miss for beer though.

Great value place, tasty food with company profits supporting the work of YMCA

What a fantastic open mic!! Owen is an amazing host. So lovely to see local talent perform so well ❤️

Fabulous indie vibe, great food, drinks and music

A private function, celebrating a family wedding - perfect!

Very unique venue- perfect for hosting events

Great food, drink, and music. Beautiful of music hall

The Sunday roasts are brilliant with great veg. The atmosphere is amazing and is one of my favourite places to go on Sunday

We come here several times a month - the service is fantastic and the venue is full of character. We requested The Snug for a family do and it was perfect. The Malt Cross team couldn't be more helpful.

Amazing place amazing food amazing beer. Just the best

Really nice venue. Sort of tucked away. Live jazz when we visited.

Great for large private memorial event

Nice historic building. It used to be very overpriced so was reluctant to step in since it has reopened. The prices are similar to what they were previously, so I've dropped a star for it being unnecessarily pricey.

One of the best roasts in Nottingham hands down. We love it here.

Wonderful Sunday dinner, large range of ales, lovely staff. Building is absolutely beautiful, especially in the sunshine!

We attended a wedding here yesterday (06/04/23) and I’ve got to say we were impressed from the moment we walked in until we left much much later on in the night 😂 The staff were so helpful and friendly, the food that was served was excellent!! And they have such a vast array of beers and spirits, something for everyone. A must place to visit and a cool wedding venue too. Keep up the great work ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

One of the best venues in town! The Malt Cross is a beautifully restored Victorian music hall with a curved glass ceiling, original stage, pillars, and features in period colours - a hidden gem right off Market Square. The staff are super friendly, the food of the highest quality, and they host live gigs and events. Been coming here since the 90s, and love it more than ever. In fact, I even got together with my wife in the Malt Cross, kissing on the dance floor on New Year's Eve, many years ago.

Lovely pub in a beautiful old Victorian music hall. They do food and usually have a selection of good cask ales. Check their website though as the don't open every day. And Thursday night is open mic, which may not be everyone's cup of tea.

Beautiful building. Fine selection of beers.

The quiz is amazing! Jake is a brilliant host, very funny and entertaining. The staff and food here are also excellent.

Lovely food, really relaxed and friendly atmosphere

Brilliant atmosphere and service. Lovely building. Didn't have food but the drinks were great.

Thanks to the YMCA, the various other churches and the Heritage Lottery Fund for keeping this historic setting alive and relevant.

Wonderful venue for a family birthday with additional friends the food was amazing and atmosphere superb will definitely visit again and recommend

Great little pub over two floors with a nice selection of drinks & food on offer in the day time.

Quiz was terrible, loads of answers to the questions were wrong.
