The Pudding Pantry opened earlier this year and is run by 3 friends who all have a passion for desserts and coffee. It is located in the Trinity Square area of Nottingham City Centre and funnily enough is across from a gym! You may think this is a good or a bad thing, I personally think it is genius. They have a small outside seating area and also a open hatch to order and collect through instead of going into the store. All of their cakes are baked fresh and are constantly changing. Cinnamon Apple Doughnuts with a Maple Glaze, Bacon Brownies and Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookies are just a few of the items that have been on offer since opening.
Their menu features a small selection of items for Lunch such as sandwiches and soup, plus a kids option and also pizza. However, as soon as you open the menu the first page is a the listings of homemade pancakes with toppings and delicious milkshakes.
I went for the Homemade Pancakes with Salted Caramel sauce. Oh my that sauce was like the middle of a soft Worther's Original sweet, people in the UK will understand this but I am not sure if these are worldwide. The pancakes were light and fluffy however, I could tell they were pre-made in store before ordering as they were not warm at all. I still managed to eat them all with just one bite left as it was just a little too much for me though.
The restaurant is decorated in pastel colours with a kind of rustic cafe feel. There are comfy settees, chairs with tables and booth type seating with all of the woodwork made by a contact of the owners and all of the colours and branding of the company designed and created by their graphics designer friend. Overall, the vibe is very relaxed and perfect for the young, student scene of Nottingham. I can imagine this to be very successful now that term has started again and I may have to return to try one of their homemade cakes!
Let me know if you have been here or are thinking of trying it xx
