I went here for the first time yesterday with a friend. It's a small cafe but has everything you could want. There's a range of drinks (hot and cold) and snacks. For a park cafe, it does what it needs to. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The decor inside is lovely, and the napkins / sugar / sweeteners etc. are easily found in the main indoor seating part. The cafe is just to the right of the entrance, but is right next to the tram tracks, so if you're sitting outside it will be noisy just when they go by. Staff were friendly.

I had a pot of tea (£1.50) and it was very nice, and well worth the price. I had two cups, but still had plenty left over, so you could easily get 4 cups out of the pot. Would definitely go again in future.

Very quaint and pleasant cafe on the edge of the Arboretum. Full of character and some nice options to nibble on before a stroll round. Drinks refreshing, food flavourful and cake delicious! Staff friendly and helpful, four legged friends welcome too.

Went there today, the staff was lovely and the food cery tasty. The portions are massive and I could not finish my plate. Would recommend and would also visit again!

Out on a dog walk today and came across this place . Top service and a real nice flat white coffee and vegan sausage roll. Will be returning on my next walk in the area

Lovely small cafe. Good food and drinks. Definitely worth the visit.

Charming little cafe right by the entrance to the park. Friendly service, delicious food and plenty of snacks. What more could you ask for?

I had not visited Nottingham Arboretum since before lockdown when l would take a relaxing wander. Back then if you wanted refreshments and ice lollies you would have to bring them yourself. To my surprise when l stopped off for a wander today l found the Arboretum café inside the former groundskeepers cottage. Bedecked with flowers you can dine inside in a warm and cosy room with photographs of the Arboretum on the wall. In another room is the serving counter and foods. This is a far cry to the former equipment filled hut of yesteryear. There are 5 tables inside and another 9 or so outside and on a lovely day like today its a an ideal place to refresh your self.

Serving teas, coffees and soft drinks you can enjoy scones and jam or a very large slice of cake with cream. The choice of cake l was to choose from were all triple layered, Victoria sandwich, coffee and walnut, raspberry & white chocolate and lemon. The slice you are served takes up the whole plate, its light moist and flavourful and homemade to boot.

Other foods available are All day breakfasts, beans on toast, eggs on toast, sausage or bacon cobs and full English. You can also buy a Sunday lunch here as well as ciabatta and panini, salads, ploughman's, jacket potatoes and burgers. Although a few pence more than the local Wetherspoons the atmosphere is much nicer and the staff friendlier.

The café had been open about a year and seems to have a good turnover of customers which says to me that it is popular and popular speaks volumes especially if the food is good. Located right next to the main entrance on Waverley Street it could be called a hidden gem but its not hidden but it is still a gem and a good one at that.

Welcoming customer service.Great view but indoor there is little space..only 4 small tables so it can feel very packed.Outdoor seating is way better.It's a dog friendly cafe .
