Caffè Nero

You know the drill with Caffè Nero—they're everywhere, and honestly, that's not a bad thing when you're after a decent cappuccino that won't break the bank. This West Bridgford spot sits on Central Avenue, perfectly positioned for a coffee between shops or a catch-up with mates. The chain's consistent, the espresso's solid, and they do a proper range of hot and cold drinks without making it complicated. Fair-trade credentials and a decent selection of cakes and paninis mean you can actually sit here for a proper hour if you fancy it.
