Write a review
Good food is what brings the people of Nottingham to Ben Bowers Restaurant and the dancing keeps them there till late. Housed in a former pharmacy built in 1877, the restaurant is something of an institution and offers modern food in relaxed, candlelit surroundings. The menu changes fortnightly: start with lemon and basil crumbed monkfish with caperberry and onion mayo, then try pan-fried medallions of beef with a sauce of green peppercorns, Dijon mustard, cream and armagnac. Veggies will relish the zesty Thai-spiced vegetable stir-fry, authentically flavoured with lemon grass, chilli, garlic, coriander, lime and coconut and served on jasmine rice. The sticky toffee pudding is knockout stuff but for a touch of retro glory go for the individual baked Alaska, updated with a mixed berry coulis. Totally hot, totally cool – literally. On live music evenings the tables are spirited away and the dining turns to dancing.
