skein is a fine dining restaurant at 27 Goose Gate in Nottingham’s Hockley district. The historic building was once home to a gentleman’s tailor, a connection reflected in the restaurant’s name and its thoughtful but deliberately unstuffy approach to hospitality.

Seasonal and locally sourced produce determines what the kitchen serves on any particular visit. Chefs work with small batches of ingredients to create limited quantities of starters, mains and desserts, replacing dishes as they sell out rather than holding the menu static.

This constantly rotating à la carte format gives the cooking room to respond to quality and availability. Diners can expect modern British ideas and careful presentation, with vegetarian and vegan options available within the changing selection.

The wine list also changes by the bottle so that it can follow the current food menu. Reservations are useful for the intimate lunch and dinner services, and guests with allergies should discuss their needs in advance because dishes may change during the same service.

Address: 27 Goose Gate, Hockley, Nottingham NG1 1FE, England
