This hidden gem is a must if you're in Nottingham and like fine food. Fletcher's Dining is at Nottingham College, staffed by students. We were recommended we visit here by a local friend, and our first time certainly won't be our last.
You book the date you want, but be warned, they book up fast, and choose the meat or vegetarian menu, and then sit back and relax! The team met us at the door and although they were clearly nervous, they were friendly throughout.
We had five different courses of delicious food, and in no way would you say this food was from someone in training, it was amazing. From braised pigs cheeks, to polenta cake, it was a taste sensation.
Highly recommended, but do book early!
This was my first visit, but it won't be the last!
I was impressed that my menu had been altered to take into account my food allergy.
The food that I had was excellent and the service struck just the right balance between attentive, but not invasive.
Great prices too.
Lunch
An excellent value 3 course lunch.
