There’s something about a beautiful view that can really make a dining experience extra special, and Nottinghamshire has no shortage of restaurants, bars and cafés set against a variety of backdrops to take your breath away. From beautiful city skylines to relaxing waterside settings to stunning countryside landscapes, there are plenty of venues where you can bag yourself the best window seat in the house, enjoy a delicious meal or a glass of wine and simply soak up the view.
If your idea of a perfect view is gazing out over the bright lights of the city, Nottinghamshire has some great options for you.
The Spotlight Bar and Restaurant at Motorpoint Arena Nottingham, which boasts spectacular floor-to-ceiling views of the city skyline and exciting à-la-carte menu options. This elegant and relaxed venue underwent a huge refurbishment in 2019 and offers an exclusive hospitality experience to start your big night out in style whilst looking out over Nottingham’s rooftops.
There’s something inexplicably calming about watching the sun rippling over a lake, canal or river, and if this is the sort of thing that floats your boat then we’ve got plenty of great ideas for you.
Visit Canalhouse’s famously large, covered beer garden for stunning views of the canal (which even runs inside the building). Wave at passing narrowboats as you take your pick from various dishes including ‘beer bites’, burgers, salads, rustic sandwiches and much more. They have a hugely expansive selection of real ale and cider and one of the largest selections of world and craft beer in the East Midlands.
