New bar set for Nottingham’s Lace Market

Michael Johnson

The team behind Nottingham bars The Hockley Arts Club and Das Kino, has revealed the name for its newest venue – due to open its doors in the city’s Lace Market this Spring.

Penny Lane will open at 9 Fletcher Gate, taking inspiration from seaside family holidays, summer trips to Matlock Bath and Blackpool and Brighton’s iconic pier.

It will offer cocktails designed by an award-winning mixologist as well as a selection of food and drink.

The 7,000 sq ft bar and kitchen, which will serve as both a daytime and evening venue, will also have an amusement arcade with a mid-century British inspired design throughout.

Michael Johnson, the operations director at Penny Lane, said: “We are thrilled to be opening our newest venture in Nottingham’s Lace Market – it is the perfect location and we think people will be really excited to try it out. Penny Lane will be our flagship venue, and will feature some of our most exciting and adventurous ideas yet.

“Nottingham is such a vibrant city, known for its artistic flare and independent scene, so it was really important that we created something different with a unique interactive element – Penny Lane is just that.

“There will be unusual cocktails on the menu, designed to bring back British childhood memories. Our Twister cocktail at The Hockley Arts Club is extremely popular, so we will be using similar ideas to fit in with the fun quirky theme at Penny Lane, as well as colourful lights and stunning monochrome tiles to deliver an iconic venue that the city can be proud of.

“We are really excited to open up the venue during the daytime too, which will be suitable for families and children looking to have a go on the games and relax with some casual food and drink.”

Penny Lane will be open in late April.
