Best Bars in Nottingham

Nottingham's best bars have a secretive aspect to them, so wherever you are, it'll have that exclusive feel.
It's super chill down by the canal. Around Canal Street you'll find some luxe venues with broad ranges of beverages and beer gardens; perfect for sunny hen party evenings of the relaxed variety.
The Lace Market's surrounding streets will impress if your tipple is a cocktail with all the trimmings. Likewise, just a short walk up to Hockley will lead you to some craft beer pubs if it's ale you're craving. Nottingham breweries and distilleries are making a comeback, so you'll find local brews up here on tap and mass.

Sights & Sounds

Sights
Nottingham is where ice skating royalty Torvill and Dean first got their skates on and the National Ice Centre is well worth a visit if you feel like dancing on ice (and don't mind a cold bruised bum).
If the ice that has done damage was in last night's drinks then Wollaton Park has spectacular grounds where you can rest your hangovers, recuperate and get some vitamin D kissed sun. Or for a totally tranquil and horticultural spot head to the Arboretum.

Sounds
Rock City is one of the city's best live music venues where you can catch the big names of tomorrow in "I was there when..." nights out. A superb venue that also features club nights and has a big reputation across the UK for up and coming acts.
8 Talbot St
If you love a bit of "random" madness then head along to the wonderfully named Spanky Van Dyke's. Live music, Reggae nights and the rather tasty Ruby Jean's Diner for a taste of Americana.
17 Goldsmith St

Best Shopping Spots

Hopkinson 21 - You can find fabulous vintage, retro and antique goodies for your home at this great former warehouse. You'll find beautiful and quirky gems throughout the store.
21 Station St
We Are Cow - If you prefer your vintage wearable then We Are Cow have a stunning selection of pre-loved clothes, shoes and more, spanning the decades.
3 Carlton St
Vintage To A Tea - It's impossible for well-dressed hens not to love this fantastic fashion gem. It really is a slice of retro heaven.
9 Trinity Walk
Cobden Chambers - In our humble opinion, no girl's trip to Nottingham is complete without visiting this wonderful selection of independent retailers that focus on design and style.
Pelham St
