The Specialty

The Specialty is a speciality coffee house on Friar Lane in Nottingham city centre, close to the castle quarter. Dogs are welcome inside the café, making it a useful spot for a short break while exploring the city with your four-footer.

The focus is on quality coffee and a friendly neighbourhood atmosphere. It's popular with locals and visitors looking for a proper caffeine stop without leaving the dog outside.

Open seven days a week, the café runs from 8am weekdays and 9am at weekends. You'll find it tucked into the central shopping and heritage area, so it fits neatly into a morning wander or afternoon pit stop when you both need to sit down.
