Nottingham is not short of vegetarian menus. It is short of cheap ones if you eat out every night.

If you have a studio, the kitchen is yours and a weekly shop covers most of the food. Lentils, rice, frozen vegetables and tinned tomatoes go a long way. Cook twice at the weekend and eat it through the week. An en-suite means a shared kitchen, which still works if you label a shelf and do not leave it until midnight.

For eating out, Hockley and the Lace Market have the most options that are not an afterthought on a meat menu. Check a student discount app before you pay. A weekly cap on takeaways, written down, beats a resolution.
The bigger supermarkets in the centre and on the bus routes back to Radford all carry the usual plant-based ranges. You do not need a specialist shop for a Tuesday dinner.
