Nottingham's outlying areas have seen an explosion of cafes, bars and restaurants that mean it's possible to have a brilliant breakfast, a delicious lunch or enjoy a great night without having to set foot inside the city centre. Neighbourhoods such as Beeston, Sherwood, West Bridgford and Arnold have a cornucopia of places to eat and drink right on the doorstep.
We've picked a mix of newcomers and well established restaurants which have become firm favourites. From Thai food to tasty tapas and Italian feasts, there's something for all tastes.
Very handy if you live in the area, but even if you don't it's worth checking them out. You might just discover a new favourite.
