Curious Manor

Great cocktails, uninspiring food choices. We noticed it was very cold in the bar area (although we were ok in the restaurant) with people sitting in their coats. The big windows look nice but they need better heating for those sat near them!

Menu is not clear at all and Staff didn't specify/ask which sandwiches would be included in the afternoon tea, so when a ham & cheese sandwich arrived with the others I wasn't pleased since I am a vegetarian!

Had afternoon tea and it was not presented very nice, hardly any sandwiches, the ones we had were bland - felt like no effort had been made, random plates being brought out rather than usuing more that one cake stand (there was 3 of us having it). The service was slow and would not recommend it to anyone else. Very disappointed, not worth the price.

Just went for cake and coffee. The surroundings were amazing but the cake wasn't the best. Have had diner here previously was very nice but expensive.

Wonderfully quirky interior - you just keep seeing more interesting items everywhere you look! Fascinating and lots of fun! Great selection of Gin & Tonic; good wine list and excellent burger. Could have been slightly more pink for my taste but the flavour was exceptional. Loved the brioche bun also - burgers are often let down by the bun I feel so this was a big plus for me. My friend had the Moules-Frites which were perfectly cooked. Service was good and overall experience great - let down by the bench seat I was seated on being a little long so everyone that walked past bumped into it.

Brilliant food and cocktails, good atmosphere and quirky decor :) I would definitely visit again to sample more of the menu. Great for special occasions!

Good selection of vegetarian tapas and good value deal on a Wednesday, three small plates for £13. Quirky decor and something a bit different to other more traditional bars in Nottingham.

Very friendly greeting & efficient service. Were given choice of tables which was nice. Interesting decor & relaxing atmosphere. Food was good quality & good value for money

Although the food and general atmosphere was great, my sister and I found our table to 2 to be rather cramped with a large candle, vase of flowers, menus etc taking up a lot of the limited space. We ordered just olives for a starter but were served bread as well. When we told the waitress that we hadn't ordered it, she did apologise and promised it would be removed from the bill - which it wasn't. The most disappointing part of our visit was the lack of good old-fashioned plates. Although our food looked very pretty served on a narrow wooden slab, the novelty of rummage in a mini bucket for our fries, extracting coleslaw from a tiny jar, and trying to negotiate a very tall burger with no room to actually cut up our food or use cutlery soon wore off. These serving methods clearly make things difficult for the waiting staff too. When attempting to clear our table, the waitress dropped a steak knife on my sister as it fell off the tiny wooden slab and also knocked food onto her suede shoes (which now appear to be stained), and sent a jar of coleslaw onto my dress and bag. Quite embarrassing for everyone involved.

Staff were lovely and the food was amazing. Sat down and served quickly and didn't have to wait long considering it was a busy saturday. I'd highly recommend to friends and I'll definitely be returning.

Quirky and cool bar. We went for dinner and drinks, £5 for a bellini in happy hour! Pizza was delicious. Definitely worth a try, don't be out off by exterior..

I have to say i was disapointed with our experience. We arrived at 5pm for our booking with only two other people in the restauraunt. It was boiling hot, we asked to move to a cooler table and were put by the kitchen (safe to say that wasnt cooler). We moved to the bar area and were told we would now need to go to the bar to order. I understand that that may be the case in normal circumstances but given that we had to move because of the environment and as the staff had no one to serve it felt like they should have offered to give the service we would have got in the restaurant. There was 8 of us so our bill was fairly big and it didnt feel like we were valued customers. It was 7 out of the 8 of us first time visiting and it just didnt give of the best impression. I should say that the food was lovely. We were just disapointed that the staff couldnt be bothered to go over and abovel, despite having no other customers!

The food was fantastic, and was not overly priced either, the service we received was quick and courteous. I will definitely be going again in the near future.

Great atmosphere and great food. Currently my fave place to go for a breakfast afternoon tea with Mum or dinner and cocktails with friends. Must book in advance!

Amazing service very attentive lovely drinks and food Great atmosphere and very qwerky had a lovely dinner for 2 would definitely go again for drinks or food!

Fantastic good, good service, lovely atmposohere and the toilets are definitely worth a visit! The prosecco was lovely too, nothin was too much trouble for the staff.

Amazing food, amazing service, amazing place definitely going yo come back and thank you to James out waiter for the night! You was lovely x

Good service, good food. Considering it was so busy our food didn't take too long at all. Love it here and cannot wait for the new place to open too.

we enjoyed our experience of eating here and also had some very nice cocktails! we will be back again and next time I am looking forward to sampling the afternoon tea which looked lovely.

Food was nice but service terrible. We had finished starters before the drinks arrived. Halfway through mains before wine arrived, then had to wait for glasses and open the bottle ourselves.

Had a wonderful time - attentive staff and delicious food and drinks! Good price too, for the quality of the food and drink, and the great atmosphere.

Quick service, friendly staff, really lovely environment, food was delicious! All round really good evening. The photo booth is a must! Spot on from start to finish.

A very quirky restaurant, service was great. We had a lovely time, only thing we would have liked would not to have been sitting so close to the next table. Food was delicious and we will definitely visit again.

Curious Manor is a wonderful quirky venue for a fantastic afternoon tea and drinks for any occasion this is my second visit after attending a hen party thoroughly enjoyed it on both occasions

Good for cocktails and drinks but not a very wide food menu in the evening. The afternoon tea menu looked great though so we'll be returning for that.

Food was really nice but there was no air conditioning so it was just to unbearable so sit for long therefore we rushed our mains and didnt order a desert.

Food was incredible! Great choice of cocktails and the decor and staff are top notch, will definitely be going back soon, we had a great night

As a group of 8 we were on two tables next to each other, fantastic food and cocktails and the staff were lovely. Great atmosphere but it was a little bit warm at the back of the restaurant. Would definitely recommend and go back again.

Quirky venue, with excellent food and brilliant service. If you are wanting to eat out in Nottingham you need to try Curious Manor - it is unlike anywhere else.

Absolutely fab! So quirky, food lovely and staff so friendly & helpful.

High quality food and excellent service. Would definitely recommend to friends and family. Great atmosphere and surroundings. The staff were polite and efficient. Thank you.

We had afternoon tea but didn't get plates to eat off. We were not offered milk or sugar with our tea. We enjoyed the visit but felt like the service was lack lustre

Quirky setting, lovely afternoon tea, would go again. Only two things I would improve are, tea/coffee usually unlimited with an afternoon tea. It was a warm day and it felt like sitting in a greenhouse, even with the fans on, need better air con. Otherwise deffo worth a visit for the fabulous cakes.

Very slow service. Needed more staff working. Served wrong main course and had to wait ages for replacement. Didn't clear plates away. Food below average for price.

Lovely food & cocktails, although the table we sat at was quite small we had a great time. Looking forward to visiting again next month

Lovely atmosphere and surroundings. Great time was had by all. Mr Tippy afternoon tea was amazing. The cakes were delicious as was the finger sandwiches. Will definitely go again

Great service great afternoon tea great atmosphere and quirky place loved it. Staff were helpful and even gave us some extra cake which was appreciated!

Service was a little slow and they served food to one of our party long before the rest meaning they had finished before we got ours. We were waiting to pay for so long we ended up going to the bar instead. It was VERY hot to the point of being uncomfortable. The toilets are up stairs and with two elderly people in our party it wasn't ideal. Staff were nice and friendly, food was good and reasonably priced.

Lovely, quirky restaurant with delicious food and great service. Definitely recommend if you're looking for something a little bit different and special! (if you love Alice in Wonderland, this is your place)

Cool place, need to go a couple more times to try other seating areas. Love the light boxes to call for drinks. Enjoyed the food.

Good food ...cocktails tasty but very busy so some delay would go again on a less busy night.Main comment is wasn't sure on who were waiting staff as no distinct uniform-possibly all supervisors?

Great food, lovely drinks, everything took ages to arrive though, even the waitresses! I love curious manor and it's always provided consistent food and a great atmosphere but it takes too long for people to come over and say hi!

Looks amazing!! Such a qwerky place to go! But took 15 minutes to recieved our drinks! There where 3 members of staff on the bar but none where in a rush! There where only 3 couples upstairs so can not under stand staff speed. Ended up going else where to eat as we where not happy sorry

Gorgeous food. Lovely quirky setting. Beer a little pricey but still a wonderful meal experience. Got a little hot upstairs as it was a summers day and couldn't see any window openings. Didn't spoil the day though

Gorgeous burgers, excellent fries and quirky decor. Also has a good children's menu - the sausage and chunky chips were delicious! Really good service too. What more can I say... Definitely will be coming back again and again.

Staff were lovely and accomadating, everything was super tasty & the cocktails were amazing!!! For a random group of girls there was plenty to choose from off the menu. We'll definitely be returning back

A right little gem in the heart of Nottingham, every little corner will reveal another treat, it's a great concept and the food is fab too

Great service, lovely food and good drinks! The decor is beautiful. Bit pricy but fun for a special treat or a fun day out. Loved the cocktails!

Food was delicious (apart from the Camembert which was a bit burnt). Cocktails were amazing! Service wonderful and attentive.

Delightful surroundings and we were conscientiously attended to despite it being a Saturday afternoon. Delicious food and came in generous portions. We will have to return to sample more!
