Cured — Restaurant in Nottingham

I wasn’t going to write anything but I can’t let that girl smug face get away with profiling anyone. The evening started well, myself (white male individual) and another friend (white male individual) sat down at the canal. My friend went to the bar as just as my other friend arrived (black male individual). As he sat down, there was a girl sat on the other side continuously staring at him. Which made him and myself very uncomfortable. My other friend came with the drinks, i started smoking a cigar. Couple of minutes later we could hear her and the people she was sat with talking about someone smoking an Illegal substance (cannabis). Her and the others went inside, the man from the bar came out and asked us if we was smoking this Illegal substance which I responded that we wasn’t and shown him my cigar. He mentioned that he could smell it when my white friend came to the bar, to which he responded that he did have some on him but wasn’t smoking it at any point. The man said that was fine and left, I could see the girl was upset by this and started to get agitated and pointing at my black friend. She then came out, walked pasted us with a smile on her face. Again making us very uncomfortable, at to which point I decided we should leave. Again as we was leaving she was consistently staring at my black friend. Just because he was the only one there black and dress in a tracksuit, he didn’t do nothing wrong. I understand the concerns with my other white friend having an illegal substance on him but at non point was it being smoked and the man at the bar was fine after speaking. As for the girl and her friends smelling it was blown out of proportion, as no one was smoking it. My cigar was the only thing you could smell unless you was stood right next to my friend. I wish I could of had a better experience, seems a lovely spot. I was enjoying my lovely Montecristo...

Well. What a hot day!! Came to “cured” for the 3rd time. What can I say? Firstly the main bar area was so hot I felt the place should’ve been closed just for the sake of the staff. However. It was open and I have to say. All of the staff were in great moods and so welcoming! Bar man named “danny” was amzing. He got me my drink. And was so positive even though he’d have been forgiven for being totally wiped out by the heat! Total dude :). Also had an amzing convo with the barmaid “Libby”. She was totally engaging and made me feel instantly like we were old mates. Such a breath of fresh air actually as many places in the city center these days are so impersonal. Spoke to me for 10 mins and found out it’s her last night. Which is a shame really as I feel that cured will loose a little something without her! However (not sure of there names) but the other staf are equally as nice and I’d certainly recommend this place! Amzing place to get a nice pint and chill! Ya will be made to feel at home. And to Libby, onwards mate. Follow ya own path! 5 star recommendation! To the owners, look after this bunch of staff! You have a great bunch! Chris...

I went in today for a small meal with my daugther, looking at having some good coverage while the weather was terrible so we came into here for some snack and drink. The quality of the food was very good and the drinks available was what you would expect from such a small business. However... the service leaves something to be desired! Everytime I spoke to a member of staff things seemed decent and everything was fine beside one particular member of staff who seemed none interested, she kept rolling her eyes at me and gave sharp snappy responses. This just ruined the quick outing myself and my daughter had there, it looked real nice but on the inside of things this particular member of staff just seemed uninterested and didn't care. Besides this rude member of staff everything about the establishment was pretty decent and...
