The Nottingham pubs and restaurants celebrities love to visit

From a late-night takeaway in Nottingham to a Michelin-starred restaurant, you never know when you might bump into a famous face. Sports stars, actors and dancers like to paint the town red for a kebab, a few pints or some fine dining.

With Nottingham Forest going up to the Premier League and the England Cricket Team's triumph at Trent Bridge, there's been a flurry of sports stars hitting the town to celebrate. But where do those famous faces like to eat, drink and party?

When they weren't working at the England v New Zealand match, former cricketers Phil Tufnell and Michael Vaughan headed to the Dragon in Nottingham, a much-loved pub amongst the cricketing fraternity. A big favourite with commentating legend David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd, he wrote about the pub in Long Row in his book Around the World in 80 Pints and once tweeted his approval: "The secret gem pub in Nottingham... The Dragon... excellent staff, ale and DJ. Music and DJ different class.....just right."
