Fabulous little cafe. Quick service, food piping hot and just as we asked. Took 2 young children (5 and 2) to watch the planes, they were fascinated to be so close to the taxi/plan parking area. Will definitely visit again.

C. B.

Great for kids. Lovely little place. Staff are friendly. Will be visiting again :)

We live 10 mins from this place and only by chance fell upon it. I was abit worried about walking in on my own, a women and child not knowing anything about it. But very welcoming, lovely cakes, great price and great for me and my daughter to sit and watch the planes taking off, filling up with fuel and generally practicing flying.

C. F.

Very quiet today Saturday 12th February. Service was with a smile, great place for a snack, can't find fault this place. Will be lovely to see the airplanes in better weather, beautiful murals on the Cafe walls 🙂

P. B.

Wonderful. Our grandson absolutely loves going to see the aeroplanes and helicopters . We love having hot chocolate there too👍👍👍

A. H.

Visited Sunday. Good menu, reasonably priced and pleasant amiable staff. ☕👍

J. B.

Good coffee, staff helpful and polite, great place for grandchildren to see planes, always busy, close to Cotgrave, just hope they don't build on this ground as rumoured.

L. D.

A really sweet little place for kids (and adults) who love an airplane or helicopter. My toddler was in his element! The cafe is quite old fashioned but cheap with a good selection of grub!

Y. H.

Fantastic place to sit and relax and watch small planes and helicopters to off and land

K. S.

Really a hidden gem, with good food catering for people who have allergies. Really helpful and pleasant staff.

l. h.

Large Cafe with children's play area.You can watch the aircraft or go Al fresco if the weather's nice.

D. W.

Can't give it a proper review yet only just discovered where it is. Going to visit at a later date.

R. F.

Quick but of plane and helicopter spotting with the kids over a cuppa and toastie with chips.

S. W.

Great to sit and watch the planes with snacks and coffee.

T. S.

Amazing local airfield cafe. My kids both love seeing the planes, and they serve vegan cakes which is handy for kids with allergies.

C. L. (. E. A.

Not a bad little cafe once you get past the tired decor of the old building. The food isn't bad, including a variety of vegan and vegetarian options, and the staff were quite friendly too. Great view over the small airfield to enjoy when the light aircraft are in action too. Overall a pleasant pit stop and not far from the main A52 if you're on a long trek.

N. P.

Great food, lovely staff and also kids loved eating their lunch watching the planes/helicopters taking off and landing!

S. B.

A cheap and cheerful little cafe but the menu is very limited - would be nice to see a wider variety of options like there were pre-pandemic such as all day breakfasts, baked potatoes & panini’s etc. Staff are always friendly and polite.

C. S.

Great for kids who love to see planes take off my daughter and her friend really enjoyed it but some other people didn't like the fact kids was aloud as they were so excited

R. W.

This little cafe is a gem, Open 363 day's a year. Closed on Christmas day and Easter. Very child friendly play area and a great place to watch planes and helicopter landings and taking off. Meals are great with a wide variety of food something for everyone. Sometimes selling locally made products. You won't be disappointed

R. D.

A nice little location for lunch. I shared a jumbo breakfast with my 4 year old whilst my 5 year old enjoyed sausage, chips and beans. The cafe is medium sized with about 8 tables and a corner full of toys. The service was efficient and the food excellent value for money. Due to the weather there wasn't any runway activity but I'm sure it is most entertaining on a find day.

L.

Lovley little cafe for all the family. Very family friendly, suited perfectly to watch the planes land and take off. Outside seating area which is fenced off- perfect for letting the kids run free. Prefer a bigger mug for the tea and coffee otherwise 5 stars!

P. W.

Fab little cafe with great viewing area of the runway. Such a pity there isn't a footpath from the canal but that is in no way the fault of Chocks.

A. M.

An interesting location by Tollerton Airfield, with a tasty menu for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans. The staff are friendly, bright and jolly...highly efficient too. A great breakfast for us and our guests...with the added bonus of Father Christmas himself! 🎅☃️❄

B. P.

Always excellent home made gluten free cake at this interesting tearoom. Children's corner with toys and games. It's a pity it closes so early (3pm) but it's possible to sit outside and watch the planes and helicopters on a sunny day. Disabled parking, access and wheelchair space at tables but the loo could be a challenge.

R. s.

Lovely place, great choices, a hidden gem

B. S.

Really nice place to take the family for a spot of afternoon lunch, cheeky tea and cake with beautiful homemade goodies! All that added with the fact that you get to watch the planes taking off and landing, the kids were mesmerised! Lovely little place.

s. f.

Great little cafe run by nice people. Dog and vegan friendly, food good also, bonus! Lol Sadly revisted chocks away recently after eagerly awaiting it's reopening and massively disappointed. No vegan menu and a very small breakfast and lunch menu. What a shame 😔

J. H.

Lovely afternoon sitting outside watching the aircraft plus buzzards. Also heard a sky lark. I enjoyed coffee, toastie and cake.

K. L.

Gutted my favourite little cafe has been closed by the Covid-19 pandemic. :( I really hope when this is over you can open again and welcome us back with fantastic home baked cakes and cooked breakfasts!

l. w.

Had a lovely breakfast today, with great views. Lovely little cafe with nice staff

L. M.

Very unique location and nice, home like atmosphere. On a busy day, sunny day (in the airport) great place to spend lunch with kids.

m. p.

Great little find for the little ones, planes taking off and landing keeps my 2 Yr old entertained for ages. The cafe is a bit greasy spoon but the food is very nice.

D. C.

I love this place. There's stacks for little ones, with a dedicated gressed area to watch the aeroplanes, and the food is good and reasonably priced. If you're stuck for something to keep your children entertained, it's a cheap couple of hours 😉

C. R.

You MUST go here! Beautiful cafe attached inside a little airport, watch the planes take off and land, kiddies play area in the corner, outside seating in the summer, their breakfasts are divine and the staff are so lovely. We go here at least twice a month, genuinely something for everyone x

J. N.

Surprised by this lovely friendly cafe at Tollerton Airport Nottingham. Toys for kids to play with while you watch the planes and helicopters. Homemade cakes or full English both were great. Highly recommended

B. M.

Love this place. Excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans as well as your fellow omnivores. Beautiful cakes, coffees and shakes... excellent for kids

M. F.

Another lovely visit. Weather was perfect for a leisurely coffee watching the planes. Oh, and the bacon / cheese burger was pretty yummy too!

s. t.

The kids love watching the planes and helicopters taking off and landing and my young son very much enjoys the cheese and ham toasties they offer at a fairly reasonable price

T. O.

Nice cafe to take the kids and watch the planes. It is expensive but plenty of allergy friendly foods and where else could you go and be 5 metres from planes taking off.

C. T.

Lovely little cafe to sit and watch the areoplanes coming in to land and take off. Staff are friendly and helpful too. Car park and bus ride from city centre

Good food, unique location and very accommodating to children and families, the 1 year old loved the food as well, good trek to get there by foot but worth it without a doubt
