Scampi @ Nicky’s
Restaurant almost closed but just before we do, thought I’d share part of our last order of the day…
Mother’s Day
When is it?
So not too long to go huh, what to do?
Well we’re here for a lovely Mother’s Day meal, forget flowers, forget chocolates, think Fresh Fish & Chips and you won’t go wrong!
Sunday Opening 6th November
Back for another round of seasonal hours from Sunday 6th November we will be opening again 9am – 4pm, all our usual delicious meals ready to go as normal, just on Sunday too!
Fun & Free Samples
Fun & free samples today for our old and new customers alike as The Spot re-opened after its recent refurbishment, everybody has an opinion but we definitely think it’s an improvement for our Derbians!
New Menu Added
Hi NEW MENU
Just a quick update as its been a while!
We’ve been listening to our customers who wanted a more streamlined menu with MORE of our firm favourites and a few less of our fringe players.
Therefore we’ve made our 4 page menu shrink down to a 2 page menu and added a few of the more popular items that weren’t on our menu before but were being asked for by (and served to) our regulars.
Make sense huh?
We hope you enjoy!
Many thanks
Nickys
