What's this?

These are confidence labels. They show how sure we are that what we publish still reflects the restaurant's current practice. They are not a judgement on the restaurant; the wine and cooking are scored separately, out of 100.

  • Beta means assessed and scored, but we are still confirming some details (such as the current wine list) and the restaurant has not yet had the chance to correct any factual inaccuracy, so it is published with that caveat.
  • No label means a fully confirmed entry.
  • In development means not yet a review. It appears so you can see where coverage is coming.

Restaurants often change their menus. The date beside the label says when we last reviewed.

We assessed Fothergills in October 2026 and this review is based on the food menu and wine list at the time of the review. As menus and wine lists change, we name styles in order for the information to remain more useful as menus change. If things have slipped you can use the Vinealto Dining app including accessing an up to date reading using 'At the Table' from the wine list in front of you in the restaurant. How we assess

Fothergills is a relaxed pub and bistro beside Nottingham Castle, cooking a broad international menu from breakfast to dinner. Its wine list holds few surprises but offers 27 wines by the glass, grouped by style so that matching a glass to a plate is easy. It suits anyone who wants a fairly priced glass with a hearty meal, though there is nothing sweet on the list for pudding.

The full assessment of the wine programme, the pairings and how to get the best experience is for members. Make a free account to read five full entries.
