nottingham01

When you think of Nottingham, your first thought might be Robin Hood. However, we're hoping after you visit and make your way through some of the hookup bars and clubs on our list, you'll think of Nottingham in a completely new light. A fun and sexy light, that is!

History Of Nottingham Hookup Spots

Nottingham existed as early as the 11th century and we're quite certain that bars and pubs have existed just as long. After all, people have always needed a way to unwind and have fun and be social after a long day at work! There is one pub in Nottingham that claims to have been built in 1189, however the oldest records that are available says it was built in 1650.

Boilermaker is a cocktail bar for people who don't like cocktail bars. And what we mean by that is that it doesn't seem pretentious or overly trendy, like some cocktail bars can seem. Instead, Boilermaker seems like it could be your neighborhood local. It's relaxed and cozy inside, the perfect place to grab a drink with a date or hookup and get to know them.

Coco Tang is a new cocktail bar in Nottingham but it is quickly becoming one of the most popular. It is also one of the most unique, with interiors designed by a local artist. Patrons often forget they are in a bar it's so cool and unique inside! But Coco Tang isn't worth visiting just because of the interiors. What makes Coco Tang special is the carefully curated drinks menu. Each item, from wine to beer to signature cocktail, is carefully selected to make sure that it perfectly fits with the atmosphere and vibe of Coco Tang.

Website
Any Notes
All major cards and cash accepted; accessible building; no parking on site but some street parking available down the block.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
The Rum House is a cocktail bar that specializes in serving... you guessed it! Rum! We often forget how great rum can be, but this alcohol is way better than the rum and cokes we used to drink as young adults. Let The Rum House convince you that rum is the sophisticated beverage that it was always meant to be. Each signature cocktail is better than the last, so you'll just have to try all of them! But if you did have to pick just one, we recommend Gin Rummy, which is a rum and gin based cocktail. We don't know how they get that combination to work, but somehow they do! If you hit up The Rum House on a Tuesday, you can take advantage of the buy one get one half off drink special. We never thought about going out on a Tuesday before this drink special!

BRIEF DESCRIPTION
If you're a little tired of all of the cocktail bars and just want a local hole in the wall to hang out at, Junkyard is the spot for you. This Nottingham bar is all about a no-frills approach to a bar. You won't find much in terms of decoration at Junkyard other than a few dart boards hanging up in a corner. The most popular hangout out spot is along the bar, where you can strike up a friendly conversation with the bartenders or locals. It may not be fancy, but it is incredibly friendly and comfortable. And sometimes that's exactly what you want in a hookup spot!

NG1 Nightclub is located in the downtown area of Nottingham. It's one of the most popular nightclubs in Nottingham. Many tourists wonder about the name and think it may be a code for somehow but we might as well just tell you that NG1 is part of the area code in the address. Not so mysterious now, right!

In fact, one of the things that people really love about PRYZM are all of the super great people that they meet.

Bodega Social Club is a hipster's dream come true. This super chill nightclub has a great ambience plus all of the signature cocktails are served in mason jars (the official jar of hipsters everywhere!). However, we should also add that all sorts of people of all ages frequent Bodega Social Club and would consider it one of their top nightclubs in Nottingham. This is because despite definitely having a "hipster" vibe, the club itself is very welcoming and relaxed. The music that plays varies, from synth pop to house to world music. It's very likely you'll hear music you never heard before at Bodega Social Club, which is definitely part of the fun! On top of that, the staff are all some of the kindest people you'll ever meet.

There are multiple tables set up throughout the space. Some tables are able to be booked in a advance while other tables stay open for the whole night on a first come, first serve basis. We love table tennis because you don't have to necessarily be good at it to have a lot of fun! Das Kino also makes a great spot to bring a date or hookup. After all, what could be sexier than a bit of healthy competition? Exactly!
