About Plan A Cafe

Tucked into Nottingham, this small family-run place turns out Hong Kong cooking that regulars swear beats the big London names — the rice noodles especially, in mala or hot-and-sour broth, plus salt and pepper chicken wings that come out crisp outside and soft within. The two-toppings meal is around £11 with a drink, portions are generous, and food arrives fast once it's cooked, which matters when a child has hit the wall. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, and the owners are warm with families — you can order in Cantonese or English. The honest catch: it's set up largely for takeaway, so the seating area is small and functional rather than roomy, and a pram will feel tight. Save room for the HK milk tea or the French toast.
