Great fun, and great value for money!
Cocktails were made properly and not rushed, despite being 2-4-1
Tasted fab and an excellent and exciting array to choose from!
The venue is fun, and family friendly (certainly during the daytime)
Good day date bar!
The arcade games are reasonably priced too!
Would absolutely recommend.
We visited Penny Lane in Nottingham around 5 pm on a Saturday evening and had an amazing time. The place was busy but had a fantastic atmosphere with a really nice, lively vibe. There was a great mix of groups, couples, and even some families with children. Thanks to the venue’s large size, it never felt cramped, and there were plenty of comfortable spaces where you could sit down for a meal, relax with drinks, or enjoy the big games section.
One of the highlights was the arcade and funfair games area. Tokens were about £1 each, and most of the games only required one token to play, making it really easy and affordable to have a lot of fun. Buying tokens was quick and simple with contactless payment directly at the machine. They also had the classic horse racing game where you roll balls into holes to race the horses, which not many funfairs still have these days, so it was brilliant to see. If you win three times you get a cuddly toy, and if you win once you receive a little medal, which added so much fun and excitement to the experience. They also had the classic 2p arcade machines where you could put some change in and play the traditional seaside-style games.
The cocktails were brilliant at two for £11.95 with a great range to choose from. The ones we had were really well made and tasted amazing. The service at the bar was excellent, and I wish I had caught the barman’s name because he was brilliant and made the experience even better.
The location is really convenient, right in the town centre, and there is a large car park next to it in the Lace Market which made parking really easy and stress free.
Security on the door also added to the welcoming and safe environment, making it a place where you can properly relax and enjoy yourself.
Penny Lane offers something truly different compared to the usual Nottingham bar scene. Great drinks, a great vibe, and a fun and unique experience all in one place. We will definitely be back!
It was a nice place to have abit of food, drinks and play some games. Unfortunately no ducks were available to come with some of the drinks, that's the only reason it's not 5 stars(I really wanted a little duck as a memento sorry).
The venue has a great theme and vibe. Very 70's/Stranger Things.
Order the 3 pig hot dog. Wasn't bad but wasn't anything to write home about. Big German Bratwuest style sausage with dry pulled pork and very dry bacon chunks with a squirt of BBQ sauce..
Pint of Camden Pale was £6.30 which is expensive..
You order at the table via QR code and whilst the service was very fast (especially for a Friday night), there was no check in so felt a bit soulless.
Wasn't a bad experience by any stretch but also not a place I'm in a rush to go back to.
This review is solely for the cocktails as we didn't order any food. I found this place whilst searching for places doing happy hour. These guys do 2-for-1 cocktails before 9pm, Sun to Thur. The cocktails were great, I'd come back again as I'd like try everything else on the cocktail menu.
The place is a great vibe, lots of people having fun in the arcade space situated at the back.
