About IKEA Restaurant Nottingham

At Giltbrook Retail Park, IKEA Restaurant Nottingham serves Swedish-inspired dishes on a self-service format, with trays carried through a counter line rather than table service. Meatballs anchor the menu and are also sold in the food shop for takeaway at home, alongside soups and rolls. Soft drinks come with free refills, and meals bought with a family card receive a discount. IKEA Family Members get free tea or coffee on weekdays. Vouchers for the main shop area are handed out with meals. Service runs on a walk-in basis with no reservations. During off-peak hours the restaurant often runs at reduced capacity, closing part of the service, which can lead to a queue at the counter.

Customer Review Summary

Meatballs are the draw most reviewers raise, called extremely tasty and a favourite, and several pair them with chips, soup and rolls, or cakes and drinks. Value comes close behind: diners describe good portions for the price, free refills on soft drinks, family card discounts and free weekday tea or coffee for family members. A couple also note more vegetarian options now and mostly sugar free drinks. Complaints centre on upkeep and consistency. One longtime regular describes dirty tables and floors, staff chatting and much of the restaurant closed off at dinner time, and another mentions dirty trays. A breakfast diner reports hair on a sausage, one reviewer says a hot dog sausage looked pink and possibly uncooked, and a family of three found everything but the chips lukewarm. Others note that half the service is often shut, which can cause a queue, and one arrived to find every dessert had run out.

    “Probably the best value food you can get at the Giltbrook retail park. Good portion sizes for the price, free refills on soft drinks. My favourite place for meatballs.”

    “Food is good. Meatballs look and smell nice, they even taste bit very good food. Restraint worker let us off of about £5 pounds or £6 pounds or £7 pound or maybe less but I will refuse to say who it was because I am not a snitch and she is niece. You also get vouchers for the main place which is good and very very very very good 👍🏻. Someones nan in her wheelchair thought it would be a good (very good) idea to create her own 10 pin bowling match and propell herself at the fire doors about 20mph or 17mph or maybe or it was even more mph it was very funny. Then a man stood up to shut the fire door and was blamed. He is an idiot. 4 starts well done IKEA”

    “Kitchen shopping, so we popped into the restaurant for the loo and a cuppa. We wanted a quick snack and ended up getting chips, salad and meatballs for 3. The chips were hot and good portion size, everything else was luke warm. Disappointing IKEA.. and no Christmas music either. 🫤”

    “Always great value for money to feed the family, especially when you use the family card discount. Roberta on the tills had great patience when we were mistakingly trying to use a Tesco discount code! Never that busy mid week evenings, but they often shut half the service down, so can be a queue. On this occasion they had ran out of all deserts, which was odd.”
