Reviews of Jamcafé
A. M.
Brilliant pub, incredible music, and staff. All the other customers were friendly. The pub is family-friendly as children are allowed on the premises. Relaxed, friendly atmosphere. We can't recommend it enough!
C. U.
The best bar in Nottingham. Great beers, amazing music and a great crowd of people. It can get busy on an evening but they have outside seating if you'd rather chill outside. The staff are super lovely and really know their stuff.
Update: Still amazing as ever
J. D.
Fantastic selection of drinks, chilled atmosphere and outside seating available.
S. T.
Lovely little bar in Hockley with a friendly host, a laid-back environment and one of the best drinks menus in town.
D. O.
Absolute favourite place In Nottingham, great drinks (lots of good beer on tap and a great selection of spirits.. Lots of whisky), amazing staff, great music, be it the live music of all genres every night or the great DJs! Fantastic food too! But last and not least the atmosphere and the people make the place.
D. S.
Great place for a drink, a bit of U Canteen and great live music!
Never disappointed by the atmosphere or friendliness of the staff. When it's quiet it's relaxing and chilled, when it's busy it's full of energy and excitement.
Best music venue in Nottingham.
S. M.
On a 3 day break away with my fiancée we found this amazing place tucked away in the centre of Nottingham.. we went for breakfast one morning - and what a breakfast! Damn good coffee and the scrambled eggs were spot on... we found Jamcafe so intriguing we saw that they were doing a quiz in the evening.. so we returned later to not only have a good laugh doing the quiz but to enjoy the amazing selection of Gin and beer! The atmosphere was buzzing, with a great selection of music and people. Definitely recommend and will be visiting again!

Probably the best place in Nottingham. Collaborative in its operation, proper prices, typical drinks and the most friendly and warm atmosphere in the city. From a social-wise perspective, it's a progressive place.
S. D.
The best bar in the world.
Great music, nice crowd, excellent friendly service, an extensive drinks menu, the outdoor seating feels very continental, you can eat food from the great surrounding restaurants, dog friendly outside which provides more entertainment, brilliant live gigs and it's open pretty late.
Like another reviewer, I've recently moved to London. There is nothing like Jamcafe here. I've made a terrible mistake.
S. M.
Amazing coffee and brownies and stopped longer because the beers and music looked so good
Would recommend the coffee flavoured dark beer
D. L.
Jamcafe is literally one of the very few places you can go and feel very happy surrounded by people which come from a diverse environment, diverse professional background, from different places around the world and just wish to feel good and are open, kind and true. Everybody I met there wanted to have a good time and make everyone else feel they have a good time.
Place shines with pleasant people, no snobs, no shallow folk with foolish impressions and I honestly hope it stays that way.
If you wish to have fun while in Nottingham on Jazz music, blues, Indie styles...that is the place for you.
The service, management and dj selections are brilliant.
Do not forget to check out the vynil collection which is fantastic along with other souvenirs.
P. C.
Relaxed, daytime visit. Lovely staff, good coffee and food options (Chinese tapas selection from over the road) and good music. Highly recommended.
T. A.
Had half an hour to fill before a restaurant booking so stopped in here for a quick drink as a result of their very impressive selection of beers and ciders.
The staff couldn't have been more helpful - all the tables were occupied, so he went inside, found a little serving table and some stools and set it up for us outside. Our drinks orders were taken quickly and the drinks arrived similarly quickly.
We enjoyed our experience so went back after our meal and again weren't disappointed.
Great atmosphere as well with a very alternative crowd and vibe, and meant we ended up having a great conversation with the table next to us and we weren't the only ones doing that. Being able to sit outside in the vibrant bustle of the street definitely enhanced the experience too.
K. B.
Jamcafe has been one of my "go to" places during the pandemic. They've handled the restrictions brilliantly with friendly table service, a good range of beers and great music. No additional fiddly apps or admin, just a quick check in, a clear menu board and attentive staff

best dancing place
A. R.
Great bar. Large selection of drinks. Staff super friendly. Great music. Highly recommended.
S. S.
Chilled atmosphere, friendly staff!
J. S.
Fantastic atmosphere and beers! Always worth a stop by to talk to the owner and anyone there too! Enjoy!
F. Y.
Intimate venue with (actually good) music and a friendly, international clientele. My only gripe is that they don't have soda-water on tap; but otherwise have not yet had a bad night there! Enjoy with friends or even alone, they have a few seats in the main space that's still part of the dancefloor, so you can take part in the vibe whilst seated. Great establishment.
M. D.
Nice and cozy. Lovely Ale, IPA.
M.
Lovely bar. Dropped in for the open mic night on a Wednesday. Adam the host (very talented on guitar and wonderful vocalist) was very welcoming. Nice crowd too. I will definitely go back :)
J. C.
I've never written a review before which is why it's so confusing to me that last night I told the owner of this place I'm going to give him a terrible review. Its also confusing because the place really, really wasn't terrible. I only said this because the last few drops of my pint were taken away from me, very rightly so, because the bar was closing and I was also far too drunk to still be drinking. I really regret saying these things to the staff, I'm really confused as to what was going through my head but I suspect it was the huge amount of alcohol I'd already consumed.
This place had a great atmosphere, busy but not imposing. A great diverse crowd, all of whom seemed friendly and genuine. They had a great DJ, playing some amazing songs. They served great quality, reasonably priced drinks. I really can't fault the place which is why I'm so embarrassed and regretful of my actions last night. I'm going to suggest to my friends that this becomes one of our local regular drinking spots, and hopefully if they have me back, next time I go I'll be much less drunk and much more apologetic.
It's an incredibly good bar.
M. E.
I freaking love Jam cafe. It's the best place to go dancing on a Saturday night if you don't like the standard club fayre. They play a really eclectic range of music. Great range of beer although might be a bit pricey for some. Be prepared to queue for the toilets when it's busy as there's only two. Staff know their stuff and are really friendly.
W. P.
great atmosphere, friendly staff, extensive drinks menu in all price ranges, great music, one of my go-to places in Nottingham.
P. s.
Great bar, just need the DJ and live bands back!
L. W.
Great atmosphere in here on a Saturday night, and always a good selection of drinks.
N. 1.
Best bar in Nottingham. Hands down. Awesome eclectic music on a Saturday night! I live in London now and have yet to find somewhere quite like Jamcafe down here. I'd give it 6 stars if I could
S. L.
Small, cool bar showcasing talent from local djs and bands. Has indoor and outdoor seating, is usually gets very busy as the night goes on, but if you visit earlier in the evening tends to be quieter (9-10pm).
Serves a good range of draught and bottled beers.
D. M.
I absolutely love this place, It's quirky, friendly and funky! What a find, the bar staff are lovely and I have finally found somewhere that plays amazing funk music! The atmosphere is brilliant, after living in London where everywhere is really pretentious, this place is a breath of fresh air.
E. R.
Love this place. Great music and atmosphere. Lively and a splendid night out. You may have to stand though as it get full very quickly.
A. J.
Love this place! Great music and drinks and really tasty nibbles. The decoration is warm and welcoming and they always have some interesting gig or event going on. Definitely a Nottingham gem.
J. J.
Rustic but with atmosphere, a kind of "shabby chic" always something Bohemian and unusual to intrigue. On the downside, drinks are expensive with no cordials to add into the drinks. The upside is that it keeps Wspoon customers firmly in Wspoons. Build those thoughts into your expectations and you'll have a fine night.
A. D.
It's a very nice place to chill out! Good music good drinks nice staff. Day time they serve food as well. Night time usually there are little parties with a dj and a little crowd. Can only recommend.
J. B.
Gets very busy at night with the live bands and DJs, and in the more relaxed afternoons you can pick up some good wine, interesting beers, and fantastic food from a talented chef. A genuinely friendly place that attracts a really pleasant crowd.
S. C.
Cosy, colourful, fun cafe with a superb atmosphere. I went on a night when they played some excellent tropical beats from Africa. It was eclectic and uplifting. We danced the night away.
J. F.
I've been coming here for years, since before it was really popular, and the place has gone from strength to strength. Great food, drinks selection if you're into it, always loads of free music, good people, lots of local creatives and foreigners to mix with, and Jam has great relationships with the local music scene. Highly recommended any time.
Y. P.
It has a nice friendly atmosphere and I've seen some amazing live music here that one wouldn't always encounter in the Nottingham night-life.
However, the drinks on offer make for a very expensive night and the place is tiny so that I've always had to wait for ages before we can nab a table, although once seated JamCafe does make for a cool alternative night.
C.
Brilliant venue, always plenty of entetainment going on, chilled out atmosphere during the day. Fantastic food and choice of beers. owner and staff slways friendly and inviting!
g.
A Nottingham institution, great range of craft beers, friendly staff, outdoor seating, nice relaxed atmosphere and regular live music nights. This should a place to stop on every Nottingham night out
A. S.
Very quickly became my favorite spot for a night out in Notts. Great music, lovely staff, and always an interesting selection of brews. Very chilled out atmosphere.
W. B.
Live band was great, interesting variety of beers (interesting being the word) but a little small and odd. I've heard good reviews from other people mind so don't just take my mediocre word for it.
L. H.
Slightly disappointed with the atmosphere and music being played. A few years ago this was a real go to place for a great Saturday night out. We didn't stay long
L. T.
Great place where all the local musicians hang out.
K. H.
What a nice place. Excellent quality beers, well chosen and continually changing. Great atmosphere. Very friendly and laid back.

Had a great brunch here today (served until 3pm on Sundays). Staff were really friendly, and had no problems with our requests for minor changes to the dishes we ordered. Food was really good.
S. G.
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, superb range of craft beer and good value tasty food. Interesting bands and DJ sets in the evening.

Yeah pretty good fun every time I've been
Full of foreign students which is cool. But also full of hipster nutjobs who think that drinking ipa at a bar is leftwing

The addition of delicious Chinese food from the restaurant across the road (which is awesome, but understandably always busy) has made Jam Café even more awesome that it already was.
