Looking for somewhere for a nice coffee in Nottingham, it seemed most places around the Lacemarket…read morewere shut on a Monday. Lucky for me Divine were open. Lots of nice seating areas, a really nice selection of hot & cold drinks (they even have A G Barr drinks, but alas no Red Kola) and some yummy cakes. Free wifi is available for customers on site, and there's plenty of places to sit (we sat in the front area, there's also a lounge in the back). I think this place is quite new, so check it out before everyone else does!

Set slightly out of the way, Divine is a wonderful establishment for when you want to relax from…read morethe hectic day in Nottingham City Centre yet is close enough and easy to get to. This little coffee shop is full of character, fiercely independent and fairly priced. If you love coffee but are sick to death of the clones on the high street then a trip to Divine is long overdue. Not only is this place ran by top people, it offers a selection of chai latte to die for as well as a range of amazing homemade cakes and fresh paninis. Divine even offers a selection of literature and actively promotes other independent businesses in the area by way of an area for leaflets and business cards. If you are in Nottingham then be sure to drop by for a hot drink and a warm welcome.

I decided to give Muffin Break one final chance after delivering one of the single-worst food items…read moreI'd ever ate at their Chester store, mainly down to previous good experiences a couple of years ago, so I hoped the branch here at intu Derby, opposite WHSmith would help restore my faith in a brand, I'm beginning to feel more confident in, but sadly it didn't restore confidence and virtually acted as the final nail in the coffin. Muffin Break is a small chain, operating on a franchise model in most parts and the store did have a feel to it, the staff member working seemed distracted but she did also seem friendly/helpful whenever I wanted to ask a question or make a purchase, so that was okay. The opening hours of the cafe is also puzzling as it closes at 5:30 pm which is much earlier than the rest of the mall, which sometimes stays open until 8 pm: it makes little sense. I chose the last gluten-free muffin of the day, the chocolate and strawberry muffin, it was pretty cheap at £2.40 which was even £0.10 cheaper than their Chester store however I wasn't too impressed, the chocolate chips had a strange taste too and I don't think it went well with the strawberries, while I did like the combination of white and milk chocolate as icing and the regular part of the muffin without the chocolate chips was okay, I wasn't too impressed overall. Better than the Chester store, but that wouldn't be hard. Perhaps with some improvements to ensure staff members don't become sidetracked and making sure every part of the muffin is of sufficient quality this place can become more than the second-best coffee shop in the shopping centre (There isn't that many either so second-best isn't entierly brilliant). 2*

My only complaint is that there muffin mix is about pricey but overall a great cafe. My personal favourite is Mars bar and is what I usually order but I would also recommend Oreo and chocolate chip flavours.

They also do a nice takeaway fruit salad. You can also eat in, and there's a large seating area upstairs. The shop does get busy, but the staff are fairly on the ball so service is quite quick. This isn't the cheapest sandwich place by far though, and as a result, I tend to use it for a special treat rather than every day.

There is outside space for anyone brave enough to brace the December weather and a sizeable space inside, with tables to suit all party sizes, from couples to larger family groups. Large mirrors and artwork adorn the walls, as well as seasonal fare at this time of year. It is always busy, but somehow never feels cramped and is a good escape from the hustle and bustle of the shops. We managed to get a table at lunchtime today, surprising given the close proximity to Christmas, choosing a BLT from the sandwich selection, that also included toasties and seasonal Turkey and Cranberry Wraps. Cakes wise, too many to choose from, the salted caramel Yule Log looked tempting, as did the Mince Tart, but we opted for the Tiffin and the Belgian Caramel Slice, both very tasty. Drinks wise, all the classics in three sizes, slightly inflated prices because of the outlet location, but not too bad. The staff were unflappable and friendly, the coffee and tea stereotypically good, whilst the Brownie Hot Chocolate had an interesting flavour, pleasant enough, but not sure I would sample it again. On the whole a pleasant break from Christmas shopping, the BLT was a little dry though, and where the trademark tomato was, we weren't sure.
