This hidden gem is a must if you're in Nottingham and like fine food. Fletcher's Dining is at Nottingham College, staffed by students. We were recommended we visit here by a local friend, and our first time certainly won't be our last.
You book the date you want, but be warned, they book up fast, and choose the meat or vegetarian menu, and then sit back and relax! The team met us at the door and although they were clearly nervous, they were friendly throughout.
We had five different courses of delicious food, and in no way would you say this food was from someone in training, it was amazing. From braised pigs cheeks, to polenta cake, it was a taste sensation.
Highly recommended, but do book early!
This was my first visit, but it won't be the last!
I was impressed that my menu had been altered to take into account my food allergy.
The food that I had was excellent and the service struck just the right balance between attentive, but not invasive.
Great prices too.

Our visit was at lunch time where they have on offer a three course menu for the very reasonable price of £13.95.
There were three of us so we had

The young servers were lovely with their white gloves on and looked very professional.
If you are in town and want somewhere completely different from the norm, at a very good value price.
Then give these students your support and see the future stars of the industry.
Had a delicious 3 course lunch for a very reasonable £16.95
The restaurant is staffed by students learning the hospitality trade working front of house and in the kitchen.
If you want a flavourful meal from restaurateurs of the future then give fletchers a visit. You won't be disappointed.
A big shout out to Brandon who did a great job seeing to our table today.
A great evening at Fletchers and such value for money. Their menus are always changing so keep and eye out a few months in advance and something is sure catch your eye. We went for spice night, 5 courses for £22. Our waiter was lovely and had great banter, it makes you appreciate how easy the professionals make it look. We even learned how to properly open a bottle of wine! The food was really tasty and service was very efficient. Looking forward to trying new menus soon. I can confirm that the bouncer on the door is fully qualified...
Lovely food at very reasonable prices and friendly service.
Restaurant run by Nottingham students.
Very good value well worth a visit to see the future talents.
Booking essential.
I have recently been to a few meals at Fletchers, the most recent being the Notts and Derby Wine School evening and a level 3 student takeover menu 14th June 'British coastline Menu'.
The wine school evening was a first..... who knew wine has legs! This evening was pricer than normal but you get fabulous food paired with a different wine for each course. While you are waiting each course to come out you are given a great rundown of the wine, where it's produced and how to develop your appreciation of the flavour. Very interesting and will be booking another of these evenings. The British Coastline menu was excellent out of the five courses I could not pick a favourite..... praise indeed. The standard of food was excellent, service was good and staff as helpful as ever...... Chris will happily recommend a wine if you are stuck for choice. Taking of wine..... there's a new wine list.... win, win!
I will be back in a couple of weeks for the Gala menu, just a shame it closes for Summer!
Amazing value.
Had a fantastic 3 course meal cooked and served by the college students.
Salmon and potato salad, bavett steak and Eton mess for just £13.99.
Went with my wife on Friday Lunchtime. The food was excellent, with a bottle of Merlot.
Staff were very good. Well done. Definitely going there again.
