Nottingham's food scene has never looked stronger - from Michelin class food to award-winning fish and chip shops. Earlier this week the Michelin Guide for Great Britain and Ireland revealed the 2023 stars and it was good news for the city's top restaurants and others across the East Midlands that all retained their accolades.
As well as first-rate food, there's a chance to splurge on matching wines for a full-blown gastronomic experience - and one even has a cigar hut. If your budget doesn't stretch to the costly evening extravaganza, lunchtime is a less expensive affair.
Many also have the added benefit of luxury rooms for an overnight stay, which is useful when you've had cocktails, wine flights and after-dinner drinks.
