Cleaver & Wake

Amazing meal! Service is 10/10 also. Really impressed with the food it was my first time here with my parents and we will be back again, we had chicken liver parfait for starter which I would recommend! Cod and mussels for main aswell as the pork tenderloin which was my favourite dish and then chocolate anglaise for dessert! Couldn’t fault anything

We got served by the lovely Hannah. She was incredible, so polite and very accommodating. She was super professional whilst keeping a warm friendly character. We couldn’t recommend this bar enough, and very happy we stopped in. Thankyou again for the wonderful experience and will definitely return next time we’re in Nottingham. Love from Beth and Milly

I had high expectations for this restaurant from looking at previous reviews and I wasn't disappointed. Atmosphere was nice, quite simple and i wouldnt say anything unique or symbolic of the restaurant but stylish and clean. Service was very good, attentative, friendly and well timed. The food was delicious, I had the scallop, my partner the crab and both fragrant and tasty. For main I had the lamb and it was fantastic, my partner had the fillet of beef, cut like butter and beautiful subtle flavour. I was pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes and although we ordered some chips and greens it wasn't for volume. All in all a brilliant place for both an intimate date night and group of friends/celebration.

Cleaver & Wake did not disappoint - this is a restaurant that definitely helps Nottingham become the city for fine dining. Everything from the food, to the decor to the building itself was superb. We went for Sunday lunch and it was great to be able to watch the chefs prepare the food and see how much hard work goes in. Unfortunately we have only been once so far but next time will be trying the dinner menu. Laurence Henry has done a sterling job and I really hope Cleaver & Wake gets the recognition it deserves as time goes on. Michelin star perhaps?

This is the second time my partner and myself have been to Cleaver and Wake, both times have been exceptional. Days later and we are both still talking about how fantastic it was. The atmosphere, food and service were all impeccable. Harry is a great asset and credit to your team and restaurant. We love it that much, we’re back next week for a Sunday dinner! Can’t wait to be back!! We will be talking about this for months, telling all our family and friends, definitely recommend!

Came for our anniversary and was a perfect place to celebrate. Beautiful setting and interior, all the staff were very attentive and professional. Complementary bread with marmite butter was divine. Steak tartare starter was flavoursome with plenty of texture. Pidgeon bbq main was superb though the sausage could have been warmer. Ribeye was better than Hawksmoor. Both desserts were delicious. Overall Cleaver and Wake did meet and exceed expectations. Will be back for another special occasion for sure.
